Ji Zhinan's phoenix jade pendant was a size larger and more exquisitely carved, with excellent attention to detail.
"This jade is extremely rare; its production has been almost zero in recent years. You're really willing to give me something so expensive?"
Old Master Qin looked at Gu Yibei and Ji Zhinan in disbelief.
Gu Yibei smiled and said, "Well, Qin Yu has always said that you like to study these things. Rather than letting them go to waste in my hands, it would be more valuable to give them to you."
Anyway, he only bought that jade pendant so that his maid could easily study his own.
"Grandpa Qin, from what you just said, do you know the value of this type of jade?"
"That's right." Old Master Qin nodded and explained to the three younger generation members present: "This is the rarest type of jade. It has only appeared in Europe over the years, but the production is extremely low. You might not be able to find a good piece for three to five years. To date, there are probably only a dozen or so people who have made it into jade pendants for collection."
Old Master Qin has studied jade for so many years, so his knowledge is naturally much greater than that of these younger generation.
With Old Master Qin's words, Ji Zhinan was certain.
One of her fathers or mothers must have been in Europe.
…………
On the way back, Ji Zhinan clutched the phoenix jade pendant in his hand.
"Yi Bei".
She turned to stare at the man who was driving intently: "In Europe, how many families can own this jade pendant?"
"a lot of."
"..."
Gu Yibei said, "Europe has always been very developed, with many developed countries. Western countries are often dominated by nobles."
"..."
Therefore, it is still not completely certain.
So... how much does Grandpa know?
Grandpa Ji repeatedly said that it was a deep pit and that we absolutely must not jump in.
He must know more details.
Ji Zhinan gripped the jade pendant tightly.
She was determined to find a way to get the old man to tell her everything he knew.
………
Back at the Nine Brocade Palace, Gu Yibei, having spent the whole day with her, squeezed all his work into the evening.
As soon as he got home, he went to his study for a meeting.
After taking a shower, Ji Zhinan lay in bed and used his tablet to look up information about Europe.
The situation became increasingly confusing, and she never imagined that her background would be so complicated.
If she could, she would really wish she were just a child from an ordinary family.
From her past life to this one, the reason she is so determined to find her biological parents is simply to understand why they entrusted her to her grandfather in the first place.
Was it out of desperation, or was it voluntary?
Was she really just a burden to them, so they couldn't wait to give her away?
But if she were truly unwelcome by them, her mother wouldn't have left her such an important jade pendant and the Infinite Black Card that even Lin Que dreamed of...
So what is the truth? What really happened more than 20 years ago?
Ji Zhinan thought about it a lot, but couldn't figure it out.
I don't know when she fell asleep.
In a daze, I felt someone cautiously enter my room, and I could tell that the person was deliberately making their footsteps light.
Then she felt the blanket covering her being pulled up.
It should be Gu Yibei.
She was still conscious, but she couldn't open her eyes.
After Gu Yibei covered her with the blanket, he didn't leave. He seemed to be watching her intently from the bedside.
He suddenly grabbed her right hand, and Ji Zhinan could clearly feel the warmth from the man's palm.
