When Song Xizhi finished his bath and returned to the room, he found that the jade pendant that had been on the square table was gone.
Her vision went black, and she immediately summoned Qing Tong.
"Qing Tong, you promised me to ask He Jingyan, but now the jade pendant is missing. What happened?"
Qing Tong looked at her pitifully: "This subordinate dares not take responsibility. If Master wakes up and finds out that I gave you this jade pendant, he will definitely hold a grudge against me... unless, you took this jade pendant from Master yourself."
Understanding the implication in the bronze inscription, Song Xizhi looked at him with disdain: "So this jade pendant is now on your master?"
Bronze nodded hastily.
The disdain in Song Xizhi's eyes intensified. "How can you be so cowardly? You want me to go find it myself?"
"What secrets lie behind this jade pendant? And where did your master obtain it?"
As Song Xizhi spoke, a hint of wariness appeared in his eyes, as if he had just thought of something: "This jade pendant, could it have been a gift from some woman?"
Bronze's grinning mouth instantly shut: "No, no, Master's secret is also on Master's person, you can go and find it!"
Song Xizhi looked at him suspiciously: "Does He Jingyan have any secrets about this jade pendant?"
Qing Tong sneezed, then quickly covered his mouth: "Yes, but there's one thing. When Master wakes up, please don't say that I let it slip."
"Heaven, earth, you, and I know this!"
Song Xizhi stared at the bronze for a long time before nodding: "Okay, I promise you."
"I take responsibility for my own actions; I did everything."
Even through a screen, the two people's uninhibited voices clearly reached He Jingyan's ears.
He Jingyan lay quietly on the bed, his eyes closed, but the veins on his temples were throbbing wildly.
Heaven knows, Earth knows, you know, and I know?
Is this bronze statue treating him as a dead person?
As the door creaked shut, the woman's warm palm touched his cheek.
"Young master, do you have time to chat?"
Her voice was light and flirtatious.
He Jingyan felt the woman's burning gaze, which seemed to roam over his face, and he silently took a deep breath.
Well, he suddenly realized that he was now a living dead who could take whatever he wanted.
Song Xizhi looked at He Jingyan lying on the bed with a normal expression, and at first glance, he couldn't tell where the jade pendant was hidden.
He kept thinking about the jade pendant and the secrets hidden in the bronze mouth.
Song Xizhi carefully explored He Jingyan's body, rustling and scratching his way down, not wanting to miss a single detail.
He Jingyan closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to suppress the turmoil and heat within his body.
Last time, I wasn't prepared, and my disheveled appearance was just an accident.
This time it's impossible.
until……
Song Xizhi kept his head down and busily searched for his lower abdomen, feeling around inch by inch through his clothes before finally discovering a hard object pressed against He Jingyan's waist.
"What...it wasn't inside the clothes at all..."
Song Xizhi hadn't expected the bronze to be hidden so casually, and all her efforts of searching through He Jingyan's body were in vain.
She took back the mysterious jade pendant, feeling its slight warmth, and held it tightly in her hand.
Then, Song Xizhi moved to He Jingyan's side, looked at him silently, and muttered to himself:
"Alright, since this jade pendant was found on you, and you didn't stop me when I found it, why don't you give it to me?"
He Jingyan felt a throbbing vein on his temple. He really wanted to know if this really wasn't considered outright robbery.
But then, he felt the woman suddenly lean close to his ear, place a finger across his nose, and say, "If you agree to give it to me, please breathe!"
He Jingyan decisively held his breath.
Song Xizhi was slightly taken aback when he realized that he could not feel the airflow at his fingertips.
"Why did he suddenly stop breathing?"
She hurriedly reached out, searching for He Jingyan's pulse on his neck, and squeezed it tightly.
Feeling the powerful and rapid throbbing of the major artery in his neck, Song Xizhi breathed a sigh of relief, but then doubts arose in his mind again.
Could it be that He Jingyan has regained consciousness at this moment?
The guesses that surfaced in her mind made her heart pound wildly. Song Xizhi probed again:
"If you don't agree to give me the jade pendant, then you can keep holding your breath."
Upon hearing these words, He Jingyan felt the hand tightly gripping his neck, a signal of threat.
His mind went into a state of heightened tension.
It's just a jade pendant, why would she murder her own husband?
He took a very reluctant breath.
Song Xizhi felt the flow of air at his fingertips again, and his wildly beating heart gradually calmed down.
As expected, it was just an accident.
She felt a pang of disappointment, then leaned down and gently pecked He Jingyan's crimson lips:
"Husband, will you give it to me?"
He Jingyan felt the fleeting softness between his lips, the woman's breath entwining with his at that moment, and his breathing became disordered for a split second.
Song Xizhi felt the strange sensation beneath the man, then suddenly looked up at him with a smile, "Alright, I know you agreed."
Yes, I agreed.
It's just a jade pendant; take it if you want.
If something happens, we can deal with it after he wakes up.
He Jingyan was thinking of giving up.
The woman beside him, a single touch of skin, a kiss, or even a coquettish word could stir up all his maddening desires.
