The Magnate’s Six-year-Old Niece

Chapter 14 Lying in wait to make them complacent?

The Si family crowd: “……”

“Little Nian Nian, didn’t your master know that any one of these items is worth a fortune and how many people would try to get them at the cost of more than thousands of yuan?”

Old Madam Si was suddenly curious about this master of her granddaughter.

Nian Nian was slightly stunned and looked at the ‘worthless things’ in their hands.

“These things, are they worth a lot of money?”

“Yes.”

Si Xinghe nodded and put the box of jewellery down, “Little Princess, thank you for the gift. Third uncle will accept the sentiments, but keep this for yourself haha.”

“Mhmm, yes, yes, you can keep these things to yourself.”

All of them wanted to return the things, but Nian Nian refused hastily.

“These are gifts from me to you. Master said, that it’s not the gift that counts, but the thought behind it. So since these things are valuable, it means that Nian Nian’s love for you is even more profound.”

In the end, it was Old Master Si who clapped his hands and made the group of them put the things away.

“Right, Grandpa, since Nian Nian has returned, shouldn’t we have an recognition banquet to introduce her to the circle.”

Si Muen suddenly suggested.

Master Si nodded with a serious expression, then looked at Si Xinghe, “Old Third, I’ll leave this matter to you. Remember, the recognition banquet must be grand, to let the entire Northern City know that the young princess of our family has returned!”

This was just what Si Xinghe wanted, “Dad, don’t worry.”

……

Meanwhile, in Quan Yuan Town, Bu Chen Chang had been searching for Nian Nian since he found out she was missing and hadn’t rested until now.

“Young Master Bu, the surveillance cameras of the whole Quan Yuan town has been checked. We only know that the little girl ran away from the hotel by herself, but where she went last is untraceable.”

Director Chen was depressed. He was already busy enough with the traffickers, but he didn’t expect to have to mobilize a large number of people to find a little girl.

If it was someone else, it would have been fine, but this little girl was lucky enough to have been recognized as a sister by Young Master Bu, so if something really happened to her in their town, it would be really bad.

Bu Chengsu looked coldly at the surveillance videos in front of him. A dozen machines were projecting them at the same time, yet he was able to take notice of every single image.

“Where’s the surveillance on this street?”

He suddenly asked, pointing to the monitor in the lower left corner.

Director Chen laughed dryly twice, “The surveillance on this street is broken, and because it’s rather remote, it wasn’t replaced in time.”

“Young master.”

Zishu suddenly walked in and whispered a few words in Bu Chengsu’s ear.

“So urgent?” Bu Chengsu wrinkled his brow.

Zishu nodded, “You also know about the friendship between the old master and the old master of the Si family. For the Si family’s young princess’ recognition banquet, I’m afraid it would be inappropriate for you to not be there.”

“If you have something to do, you can leave first. Don’t worry, I will continue to send people to look for that little girl, focusing on the street you mentioned and once there is any news, I will inform you immediately.”

Director Chen hastened to state. He would do anything he could as long as he could send this great Buddha away.

……

There were four major families in Northern City. The Si Family, the Bu Family, the Lu Family and the Su Family, which ranked according to their strength.

Therefore, the movements of the Si family naturally drew the attention of the whole city.

The recognition banquet was held at the Bu family’s hotel, with a huge gathering of bigwigs from all walks of life and a wide range of media invited.

“I’ve heard that the recognition banquet was organized by Third Master Si himself. Making such a big fuss, it looks like the rumours that the little princess is very doted on is true?”

“Of course it’s true. Can’t you see that even the old man of the Si family, who hasn’t shown his face for a long time, has come out?”

“Sigh, what happened to Eldest Young Master Si back then was a real blow to Old Master Si and the old lady, and since then they resigned from the leading post to the backstage, leaving all the power of the Si family to Third Young Master Si. But now that Eldest Young Master Si’s daughter has returned, do you think there will be a change in the authority of the Si family?”

“Are you saying that… Third Young Master Si is making such a play today with the intention of lying in wait to make them complacent?”
