"Xu Ning, you wouldn't really throw that thing away, would you?" Qi Canglan asked Xu Ning secretly after catching up.

Xu Ning didn't answer for a long time. Qi Canglan felt uneasy, his eyes flickered, and his tone was tentative.

"Did you really throw it away?"

This time he came out not only to inspect, but more importantly to see whether the gift his master gave to Xu Ning was safe.

Although he believed that with Old Lady Xu here, Xu Ning would not be crazy enough to really throw away the jade pendant, but after all, the jade pendant was not an ordinary item. Others might not understand its value, but he knew it very well.

"Yes, I threw it away. What's wrong? Can't I throw it away just because you say I don't want it? I followed your instructions and threw it far away!" A cunning look flashed in Xu Ning's eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, deliberately teasing Qi Canglan.

Qi Canglan's face turned pale in an instant, as if the sky was about to fall, and his eyes revealed despair and helplessness.

Seeing this, Xu Ning couldn't help but burst into laughter. His laughter echoed in the air and he was laughing so hard that he fell backwards.

Qi Canglan had already given up, but suddenly realized that he had been teased, and a wave of shame surged in his heart. He was about to confront Xu Ning, but he saw the strange look from Old Lady Xu.

Qi Canglan immediately resumed his usual street thug demeanor and pretended to be nonchalant, saying, "Forget it, do whatever you want with it. It's yours anyway. But I still have to remind you, this thing is not cheap. If you really lose it, remember to tell me and I'll pick it up."

Xu Ning curled his lips in disdain, not caring about Qi Canglan's words, and turned to leave with Old Lady Xu. Qi Canglan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, glad that he had successfully concealed his inner anxiety.

Along the way, Qi Canglan, feeling guilty, did not dare to look Old Lady Xu in the eye. Old Lady Xu was very perceptive and naturally noticed something unusual.

After much thought, Old Lady Xu was afraid that the jade pendant was not a normal one, so after returning to the hotel, Old Lady Xu said to Xu Ning, "Aning, find a chance to return the jade pendant."

"I understand, grandma." Xu Ning didn't care too much. She didn't want to accept it anyway, so it was just right to send it back.

Xu Ning was still thinking that if Qi Canglan could cheat her, she could also cheat him back.

Soon it was time for the end of the month settlement, and Xu Ning secretly put the jade pendant in Jiang Yan's box of silver bills.

Qi Canglan, who was so careless, counted them and found that he was right. He didn't even notice that there was a jade pendant hidden underneath.

He never expected that Xu Ning would casually stuff such an important jade pendant into the box containing silver bills.

When Jiang Yan's men presented the jade pendant to Jiang Yan, Jiang Yan was confused for a moment. It was not until Qi Canglan was called over for questioning and learned the whole story that Jiang Yan took the jade pendant back with a helpless smile.

Since Xu Ning didn't want the jade pendant, Jiang Yan thought about giving him something else, preferably one that would not be returned after being accepted.

"Master, you might as well train a group of people and send them to Miss Xu." Jiang Yi suggested.

"Brother, your idea is inappropriate. Xu Ning, no, Miss Xu is so smart, why would they be willing to accept the person sent by the master?"

"You mean, she's afraid her master will monitor her?"

"What else?" Our master is not without a criminal record. Of course, the two brothers knew this but dared not say it out loud.

But even if they didn't say it, Jiang Yan knew it.

"Master, do you think she might be blaming me for not helping her in the woods?" Jiang Yi frowned.

"Master, I don't think so. If she were, she wouldn't cooperate with you in the future." Jiang Er said immediately.

"Moreover, Master, maybe you are thinking too much. Miss Xu is a woman. What if she is slow in emotional aspects?" Jiang Er continued to analyze.

Jiang Yan remained silent, secretly pondering how to please the beautiful woman. He, Jiang Yi, and Jiang Er had no experience in this area, so they decided to find someone with experience to help them.

After much thought, he felt that the most suitable candidate should be Qi Songbo. After all, Qi Songbo was completely devoted to Pei Jiao and had been pursuing her for many years. This was well known throughout the capital.

However, despite this, Qi Songbo has never been able to win Pei Jiao's heart for many years, which is really regrettable.

Although his subordinate Qi Canglan has made great achievements in business, he seems very unreliable in other matters.

Jiang Yan couldn't help but fall into deep thought: Who should I look for? ...

After careful consideration, Jiang Yan finally came up with an idea - starting with the people around Xu Ning.

He realized that it was not easy to understand what Xu Ning liked, but it would be much easier if he could first find out the preferences of the people around her.

Then, the people around Xu Ning discovered that the people from Jiangyan seemed to be trying to please them.

The first one to discover this was the Grand Minister of Agriculture. This loudmouth immediately thought that Jiang Yan must have fallen in love with Xu Ning, so he immediately put on his bag and went to chat with Old Lady Xu.

Old Mrs. Xu had already noticed something unusual, and when the Minister of Agriculture said this, she realized it and confirmed it.

All of a sudden, everyone around Xu Ning, except Xu Ning himself, knew that Jiang Yan was pursuing Xu Ning.

The result was that when Xu Ning and Jiang Yan met one time, they encountered a group of people who were joking with them, and Xu Ning was completely dumbfounded.

Xu Ning, angry and humiliated, wrote a letter and ran away with his bag.

"Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom, aunt Yuan, big brother, Xiaobao, I'm going out for a trip and I don't know when I'll be back. Don't look for me. I'll find you if there's anything. If I don't look for you, it means I'm fine. Don't miss me too much. I'll come back when I miss you. Xu Ningliu."
