Drama Queen Reborn as a Top Student!

Chapter 1061 - 529: Anomalies (Part 2)

"Ah, I forgot to tell Uncle that An’an said Amos dislikes the noise on passenger planes and took a helicopter to Qingzhou. The helicopter will land directly on the helipad on the roof of the hotel where she’s staying."

Ren Mingze took a deep breath. The favored child of fate has every right to be so picky, but he should have informed him in advance so he wouldn’t have to wait so long in the cold wind. Ren Mingze was filled with anger.

The only hotel in Qingzhou with a helipad is Beiqi Hotel, and Amos would have no choice but to stay in the presidential suite.

Again, the presidential suite at Beiqi Hotel—Ren Mingze recalled that PT stayed there not long ago.

Thinking about it, he felt a great irony.

If Amos knew that the room he stayed in was recently occupied by a scruffy teenager from the lowest rung, addicted to fried chicken and cola, he would undoubtedly disdain it.

After all, a young master who finds even first-class cabins noisy must have a strict class distinction among those around him. Someone like PT probably wouldn’t catch his eye.

The hacker who could serve Amos must be more formidable than PT, but that was a world he couldn’t even imagine penetrating.

He hoped that by approaching Amos, he could spy a corner of that dizzyingly opulent upper-class world.

"Any other valuable information?" Ren Mingze’s tone was now utterly unconcealed in its urgency.

From the phone, Gao Yuyue was silent for a moment, "Amos has a bad temper. He has two trusted aides—a personal assistant named You Qi and a bodyguard named Peter. These two are his most trusted people. On the surface, his visit to Qingzhou is for project inspection, but actually..."

Gao Yuyue suddenly went silent at this point.

Ren Mingze pressed impatiently, "Actually, what’s he here for? Hurry up and tell me."

"I’m not sure I should say it. I found out by overhearing An’an’s phone call. If I reveal it, it would be a betrayal of An’an, and our friendship would be finished."

Ren Mingze realized that Amos certainly had more crucial matters to attend to in Qingzhou. He softened his voice, coaxing: "Yu’er, An’an doesn’t know anything about it, so what you’re doing isn’t really betraying her. You’re still good friends. You’re helping your uncle, and you’re a good child, you know. Uncle has no children, and he’s always treated you as his own since you were little. Do you have any secrets you would keep from him? After all, your uncle’s future will be yours too..."

Gao Yuyue seemed to be experiencing great pain and struggle, finally making a decision: "Amos came to Qingzhou to search for treasure."

Ren Mingze gasped, "Treasure? What treasure?"

Gao Yuyue shook her head, "I’m not too clear. It was mentioned during An’an’s call with Amos; apparently, it’s related to Sang Kunrou... I really don’t know anything else, Uncle. You mustn’t tell anyone, or An’an will surely end our friendship..."

Ren Mingze hung up the phone.

With a cold expression, he got into the car as Assistant Wen dismissed the driver and took the wheel himself.

Ren Mingze furrowed his brow, deeply lost in thought.

After what seemed like an eternity, Ren Mingze suddenly opened his eyes, "Sang Kunrou is rumored to have wealth rivaling nations. The legend is evidently true. Born into the Royal Family alone, he accumulated significant family wealth, and after conquering battles north and south, the mere spoils garnered would be a substantial fortune. Especially his former base in Chunzhou, the richest area at the time, but later, after his demise, only some properties and a few jewels were found under his name. Isn’t it peculiar?"

Assistant Wen, driving, analyzed along with Ren Mingze’s thoughts, "Indeed, the wealth of Sang Kunrou is not baseless. Rumor has it that he originally prepared half his treasury as a dowry for Sang Ziming. However, he disdained Yu Guoning, fearing his daughter’s deception by such a ’Phoenix man,’ thus reducing the dowry significantly, although it was still considerable. This dowry sustained the Yu family for decades."

Ren Mingze pondered: "Someone like Sang Kunrou, who emerged from political power struggles, will not leave himself without recourse. His most cherished person was undoubtedly his daughter. Could he have sealed the treasury away someplace unknown, purely for his daughter and her descendants?"

Assistant Wen agreed, "Makes sense."

Ren Mingze revealed the secret of Amos secretly seeking treasure in Qingzhou.

Assistant Wen was shocked, "Then everything aligns. Sang Kunrou’s wealth left for his descendants must only be known by them. Surely Yu Fuli told his daughter before dying, Shen You’an kept the secret for years, sharing it with the trusted Amos. Amos, already immensely wealthy, wouldn’t covet it himself. His coming to Qingzhou is to help Shen You’an locate these treasures to prevent them from falling into others’ hands..."

Here, Ren Mingze’s eyes suddenly turned sharp, and Assistant Wen realized the gravity.

"Mr. Yu came to Qingzhou, isn’t he also after this treasure?"

Ren Mingze sneered coldly, "No wonder he insists on wading into this murky water in Qingzhou. It turns out his intent is elsewhere."

"Sir, what should we do now?"

Sang Kunrou is said to have a penchant for collecting. Despite his martial prowess, he was a man of a refined taste at heart. It’s rumored that some long-lost singular antiques are in Sang Kunrou’s possession, where each piece is immensely valuable. The more outrageous rumor says he possesses the long-lost Imperial Jade Seal. All in all, Sang Kunrou’s treasury holds countless invaluable lost rare items.

After his death, publicly, only a few properties and a small amount of jewelry were announced. None of those legendary rare items were present, leading the outside world to dismiss Sang Kunrou as nothing more than a shell with a big name.

Now it seems Sang Kunrou’s treasury wasn’t seized by the Yu family, or he preemptively hid it away, with the secret only known among his descendants.

Ren Mingze’s intuition told him it was the second scenario.

Back then, Yu Fuli was nearly killed in a fire plotted by Yu Fusheng, surviving, and despite many choices nationwide, he chose to hide away in Qingzhou, living a peaceful life.

He is, after all, the progeny of the Royal Family, proud Yu Fuli, how could he settle for an ordinary life?

Something about it is definitely off.

And Yu Fusheng, now a nationally wanted fugitive, also chose to escape to Qingzhou.

What unique characteristic does Qingzhou have, a little-known city whose GDP ranks below the top twenty nationwide?

Ren Mingze’s narrowed eyes gleamed brightly.

Sang Kunrou’s secret treasury is in Qingzhou!
