In his study, there was a specially reserved drawer. He opened it, and at the very back of the drawer was an exquisite box. Inside the box was a jade pendant, smooth and lustrous.
He carved this himself, intending to give it to Jingrou when the opportunity arose, but after finally finishing the carving, he couldn't find a reason to give it to her.
Giving her a jade pendant out of the blue would seem too abrupt, but what kind of reason would be appropriate?
He spent more than half a year carving this jade pendant on and off. Because he had never carved such a thing before, he had to learn on the spot. He also wasted a lot of jade material while learning before he could finally start carving it properly.
This piece of jade was extremely rare to find, so we can't afford to make any mistakes.
He put a lot of effort into carving it, because he really wanted to make sure it was perfect, so he had to put in a lot of thought.
When it comes to the actual carving, there are bound to be revisions and modifications to achieve perfection, so the carving process is very slow.
He decided to carve this jade pendant only after he realized his own feelings.
He is usually very busy, and the only time he has to carve jade pendants is when he misses Jingrou very much, or when he feels that his emotions are very full and have nowhere to be released.
He would stay in his study alone late at night to carve.
Each time I carve, I feel a lot calmer inside, but that feeling doesn't disappear; instead, it accumulates in my heart.
When did they realize that their pure friendship had begun to deteriorate? Yinreng couldn't say for sure.
But Jingrou is such a good girl, it's normal for him to like her. So after realizing his own feelings, Yinreng accepted it very calmly. Although he appeared gentle and refined, he was actually proud at heart.
It was probably because the young master of the Zhenguo Marquis family showed affection for Jingrou, or perhaps it was because he saw his elder brother expressing his feelings for Wenying.
In a moment, he suddenly realized that their relationship shouldn't be like this, but could go further, and should go further.
Or perhaps it's a series of wondrous and unpredictable moments. By the time he realizes it, the event has already occurred, and he learns to confront his own inner self.
However, what troubled him was that he didn't know how to express his feelings, and he was even more unsure of Jingrou's true intentions.
He was afraid that if he told her about this, she would not accept him, and might even avoid him in her daily life, which was an outcome that Yinreng did not want to see.
Of course, he wouldn't allow Jingrou to escape, so he would make sure things were foolproof, until she couldn't escape even if she wanted to, or until she realized that she liked him too.
Then we can only maintain the status quo for now, and try our best to be good to Jingrou while waiting for her to come to her senses.
Boiling a frog in lukewarm water. At first, Yinreng was not good at it at all, but gradually, as time went on, he mastered this skill.
So should we give away the jade pendant now, under the guise of making amends?

Jingrou was indeed anxious, but at first she was anxious because the matter had gone too far. Then, the Emperor suddenly lost his temper because of this, which was rare for him, so she became worried about Yinreng's situation.
She has no idea what kind of person this is, and there's still no way to get anyone to pass on a message to her, which is making her very anxious!
For this matter, she even went to the system's shop to see if there were any useful items. However, this matter was not about Yinreng being in danger, but rather something he had caused himself, so there was no immediate danger to his life.
Therefore, there is very little he can use on the system.
All Jingrou could do was put a few lucky charms on him, hoping it would bring him some good luck!
As she gradually built up the system over the years, she accumulated more and more points. Not only that, she also continuously explored new areas. She had already unlocked several skill upgrades, and although they were few, she received a steady stream of points almost every day.
Therefore, he now has more ways to earn points, so although the amount is small, he has gradually become wealthy.
She doesn't hold back when it comes to spending points, but right now it's a critical period for system upgrades, so many things are locked, and only a few items in the system shop are usable. She just hopes the update will be faster!
At this moment, a countdown appeared at the top of the system, which is probably the time when the system update will be completed. I checked and there are still more than two days left!
Although she was anxious, Jingrou was still very much looking forward to seeing what the system would look like after the update. She wondered what new features would be added, or if the store would have any new products.
Just looking at these, she was already quite familiar with them. Aside from those unattainable mechs and the like, she hoped to find more useful things…
After leaving the palace, Jingrou went to her shop.
On the most bustling street in the capital, he actually owned three or four shops. He had never known that his family was so wealthy.
These shops were all left over from her mother's dowry. As the only princess in the Prince An's mansion, her mother was pampered and spoiled, and when she got married, her bridal procession stretched for miles.
These dowries were returned after the early death of the mother, and were not swallowed up by Guo Luoluo Clan. This is an important reason why Guo Luoluo Clan still has a good relationship with Prince An's Mansion.
