Mr. Chu's hands holding the photo couldn't stop shaking.
Ah Xing, who had just seen the photo, turned around and ran upstairs. Seeing this, everyone was curious about the photo that caused such a huge fluctuation in their emotions.
The old man suddenly raised his dark eyes, frowned, looked at Fu Linxiao and asked with difficulty: "Where did you take this photo?"
Fu Linxiao glanced at Jiang Luoning beside him, then shifted his gaze to Old Man Jiang.
"You little bastard! Your Grandpa Chu is asking you a question! What are you looking at Old Jiangtou for?"
Mr. Fu, who was anxious on the side, was really impatient. Seeing that his grandson didn't say a word, he was furious! It was the little girl who reacted first: "Could it be that this photo is about our family?"
Upon hearing the little girl's words, Elder Jiang and Elder Fu hurriedly stood up to examine the photo. It showed a white jade pendant, slender and elegant, its whiteness delicate. One side had a natural and perfect curve, while the other resembled a winding dragon. A depression in the middle of the dragon suggested it was a pair. The other half wasn't in the photo, but even from the half in the photo, it was clear it was a truly exceptional piece.
Old Master Jiang had never seen this half of the jade pendant and glanced at Fu Linxiao next to him; but the man did not respond, but nodded, agreeing with Jiang Luoning's words.
Dengdengdeng.......
The sound of someone hurriedly coming down the stairs was heard. Ah Xing was holding a jade pendant with the same texture and color as the one in the photo. She ran to Fu Linxiao and stopped, handed the jade pendant to the man, and asked excitedly, "Can the jade pendant you took a picture of be put together with this one?"
Fu Linxiao did not take it, but looked at Mr. Chu.
"Grandpa Chu, I didn't take the photo of this jade pendant. I just wanted to confirm if you recognize it."
Old Master Chu's eyes were once again filled with tears, and complex emotions flashed in his eyes.
"I know him, I know him, how could I not know him! I personally put this jade pendant on Luo'er. It's called Qingtian Baiyu, and it's an heirloom of the Dongfang family. Back then, Luo'er and Jingxiao each had half. Lin Xiao! Tell Grandpa Chu where you got this photo?"
After hearing the old man's affirmative answer, Fu Linxiao calmed himself down and finally told the truth.
"This jade pendant is now in the Jiang family. This photo was given to me by Ling Hao. He also said that the word 'Eastern' was engraved on the back of the photo."
When they heard the source of the news, Mr. Jiang and Jiang Luoning were also shocked. They had never seen this jade pendant at home.
"Where is my big brother?"
Looking at the confused and anxious little girl, the man quickly spoke to comfort her: "Originally, your eldest brother wanted to come with me, but something suddenly happened at the company, so he went to the company first and will come over after he finishes it!"
When Mr. Jiang heard Fu Linxiao's explanation, he was so angry that he just wanted to slap his stupid grandson. What if the company's business was delayed for a while? He then took out his cell phone and spoke in a commanding tone.
"You little bastard, get over to Lin Xiao's villa right now! I don't care about your AX Group, turn around and come back right now!"
He didn't know what was being said, but Jiang Luoning had heard about the AX Group from his grandfather. Uh... so was this another case of one of our family members accidentally messing things up? Jiang Luoning quickly pulled out his phone and sent a message to Su Yu to ask.
Luo Ning: [Have you been dealing with the Jiang family recently?]
Su Yu: [How do you know? I'm at Jiang Corporation right now. Besides, it's been ages since you last asked about the group!]
Luo Ning: [Tell my brother that you have something to do today, please visit me another day.]
Luo Ning; [Don't ask too much yet, this is a serious matter.]
Su Yu: [Okay, I was thinking of giving your brother a big gift, but it seems I'll have to do it another day.]
Luo Ning; [Thank you, love you! ]
Jiang Luoning had just put away his phone when Fu Linxiao's phone rang.
"Hey, you're still in the villa! I'm coming, wait for me! Don't leave!"
Jiang Linghao on the other end of the phone seemed to be being chased by something. He spoke hurriedly and hung up. Fu Linxiao didn't even have the chance to say anything. He looked at the black screen, raised his head and glanced at the people staring at him. He could only accept his fate and said, "Linghao is on his way. He should be here soon."
Not long after, there was another sound of brakes coming from outside the door.
Old Master Jiang walked to the door angrily, picked up the shoe horn from the shoe cabinet, and stood guard at the door.
When Ah Xing saw the manic Mr. Jiang, he felt that his grandfather was even more amiable. He secretly leaned behind Lu Zifan, who had been sitting quietly on the sofa as a human standee. Seeing this, Lu Zifan also felt his buttocks tighten.
Jiang Linghao seemed to have guessed his grandfather's behavior. He stood by the window, looking at his grandfather holding the shoe horn, and said quietly: "Grandpa, you should sit back down. Being angry is bad for your health!"
When Old Master Jiang saw his grandson sticking half his head out of the window, he became even more furious. Just as he was about to throw the things in his hand, he heard Old Master Chu's voice: "Old Jiang, all right! Let Ling Hao in quickly and talk about business first!"
Seeing that Mr. Chu's mood had improved a lot, everyone stopped arguing. Jiang Luoning, who had secretly reported the news, quietly put away his phone and helped his grandfather sit back on the sofa.
As soon as Jiang Linghao entered the room, he saw a row of elders sitting on the sofa, and everyone else was standing behind the old people. This scene made him feel weak, as if he was in a trial by three judges.
"Ling Hao, what's with the jade pendant in the photo?"
Before I could stand still, I heard Mr. Chu's anxious voice.
"Grandpa Chu, I did take that photo, and the jade pendant is also at the Jiang family. But I'm not sure who it belongs to!"
Upon hearing this, Old Master Jiang was the first to ask, "How come I don't know? Where is the jade pendant?"
Mr. Fu, who was standing by, bumped his arm and signaled him to stay calm.
"Grandpa, listen to me! I saw that jade pendant when I first joined the company and was helping my dad get something out of his study safe. I thought it was beautiful and wanted to ask my father for it to give to my sister. But not only did he refuse, he scolded me! He even nearly called in the family punishment! Tell me, am I wronged?"
After Jiang Linghao finished speaking, he looked at his sister aggrievedly, as if he was complaining.
