It was a jade pendant that was emerald green all over, crystal clear and lustrous, and it was obvious that it was of excellent quality.
Such jade should not appear in this remote and desolate mountain village.
Lu Bingchuan was even more familiar with the exquisitely carved patterns on it.
Because the other jade pendant in the pair now belongs to him.
Lu Bingchuan narrowed his dark eyes, loosened his hand, and looked coldly at the woman's flushed face and her rapid breathing.
Jiang Ningyan just took a breath and replied softly, "Yan'er only wants to be with Brother Chuan. Even if it costs her life, my feelings will not change."

Lu Bingchuan had a blank expression on his face and a scrutinizing look in his eyes, clearly doubting her statement.

With a loud bang, the rickety wooden door of the clinic was completely broken, and a large group of people poured in.
Each person eating onlookers had a different and colorful expression, but the most eye-catching one was a short and fat woman.
