Shen Xi was too far away to hear the conversation, so he was unaware of the jade engagement.
"She broke it!" Yang Jiaoruo said angrily. Although she didn't have concrete evidence, she already believed it.
Shen Qianxue remained calm, only thinking that her dejected state was due to this matter, but she had already given her mother's belongings to her.
