After Cang Mu finished combing his hair, he straightened her clothes. Seeing the jade pendant hanging around her neck, he frowned slightly: "What are you wearing?"

He had heard before that in Beige, when lovers were engaged to each other, they would divide a jade pendant in half and hang it around their necks.

Wan Ge touched it, but the original owner was already used to it and would never take it off, so Wan Ge didn't feel any discomfort.

It was indeed the jade pendant that was given to him when he was betrothed to the emperor. Since the original owner liked him, he naturally kept it with him.

Wan Ge took off the jade pendant and casually tossed it onto the table: "I was engaged to someone before, so I wore it around my neck, but I forgot to take it off later. The engagement is no longer valid, so there's no need to worry about it."

"Is that so?" Cang Mu's gaze lingered on the jade pendant for a moment before he looked away.

Wan Ge hummed in agreement, then took out a pair of jade pendants from her bag. The pendants were already broken in two. "These are family heirlooms, here you go."

Wan Ge gave him one, and hung the other around her own neck.

This pair of jade pendants was left by my great-grandfather. They were supposed to be given to each other after marriage and then passed down as family heirlooms to future generations.

The quality of this jade is also quite extraordinary. It would be very difficult to find such fine jade to make such an exquisite jade pendant.

Moreover, this jade pendant was originally made as a token of love, so it was made as a pair. It was just that some of the carvings allowed the two jade pendants to be joined together on one side.

When Wan Ge saw that he had also put it on around his neck, she took her own jade pendant and fiddled with his jade pendant for a bit, and then the two jade pendants became a complete piece. "There are no imitations of this jade pendant in the world, and even if there were, they could not be pieced together."

There's a mistake in one detail: the size of the carved pattern is slightly off, making it impossible for the two jade pendants to fit together.

Seeing this scene, Cang Mu smiled again, clearly pleased.

…

"By the way, are we going to find the larvae of the Longevity Gu?" He said that they should start cultivating from the larvae, so are they going to start looking for the larvae? And he also said that the mortality rate is extremely high.

"The place where the larvae live is very dangerous; I can go alone." How could he possibly take her with him to such a dangerous place? What if she gets hurt?

Upon hearing this, Wan Ge suddenly gripped his hand tightly: "Is it dangerous?!"

If it were very dangerous, I wouldn't let him go.

Wan Ge knew that the other party wouldn't let her go, so if she wanted to go, she could only do so secretly.

Cang Mu also realized something and said softly, "It's not dangerous for me."

It was fine for him, but for Wan Ge, that place was too dangerous. After all, she could be affected by ordinary illusion poisons, let alone such a dangerous place.

"Really?" He's not lying to me, is he? He just said it was very dangerous.

"Don't worry, I will definitely bring the larvae back." Cang Mu patted her head.

Wan Ge was still worried. If he hadn't said that, things would have been fine. She thought that although he was special, he was just harder to find. She never thought that he would be involved in any danger.

"Cang Mu... if there's any danger, you shouldn't go." After all, he's the most important person to her, and she absolutely cannot allow him to be in any danger.
