"no!"
Zheng Xiaorui grabbed the jade pendant in her palm and held it tightly, not letting Xu Xiaoying touch it.
"Why are you so stingy? It's just a fake jade pendant."
Seeing Zheng Xiaorui's big reaction, Xu Xiaoying curled her lips. It was the end of the world, and these things were worthless, not to mention that they were fake.
Zhou Kangning had seen a lot of these things, but based on just one glance, he couldn't tell whether they were real or fake.
But judging from Zheng Xiaorui's reaction, maybe this is still a good thing?
He walked over, took it in his hand and looked at it carefully for a few times, and concluded, "This jade is of very good quality and worth a lot of money. Xiaoying, stop messing around."
"How is this possible! She..."
Before Xu Xiaoying could say anything else, she was stunned by Zhou Kangning's look.
Zhou Kangning shouldn't be mistaken, but how could Zheng Xiaorui have such a valuable thing?
And good quality?
She swallowed the rest of her words and looked at Zheng Xiaorui and the jade on her neck with suspicion.
Zheng Xiaorui felt uncomfortable being looked at:
"This is something passed down in my family. It's not a fake, and I can't let you wear it."
She stuffed the jade back into her clothes to prevent anyone from seeing it.
Others may believe Zheng Xiaorui's words, but Xu Xiaoying will not.
They all grew up in the same village, so doesn’t she know if Zheng Xiaorui has any treasures?
Even if there was, it would not be passed on to Zheng Xiaorui, but to one of the Zheng family's beloved sons.
If this thing really belongs to Zheng Xiaorui, she would show it off in who knows how.
It's just a stolen jade, is there any need to treasure it so much?
This scene caught the eye of a girl who was also in the store. She looked Zheng Xiaorui up and down with a scrutinizing gaze. After thinking it over, she decided to ask:
"Hello, may I see your jade?"
Looking at this strange girl, Zheng Xiaorui looked alert and subconsciously covered her collar.
Why do everyone want to see her jade?
"My name is Wu Xinyue. I mean no harm. I just thought your jade looked familiar and wanted to take a look."
Whether in her dress or her conversation, Liu Xinyue looks like a rich girl with a sincere attitude.
No matter how I look at it, I'm just curious, so I want to take a look, not coveting her good things.
But Zheng Xiaorui refused to back down and spoke fiercely:
"I'm sorry, I don't want to show you. There are so many similar things out there, you can't possibly see them all, right?"
These impolite words made Wu Xinyue's face change.
She just thought that this jade was very similar to the one she had, but the end of the world came suddenly, and the jade was left at home and was not brought out.
If it didn't look exactly like hers, she wouldn't have dared to go up and take a look.
Thinking of this, Wu Xinyue's expression relaxed and calm:
"To be honest, I just think the jade you have is very similar to the one I lost. If it's really yours, it's okay to lend it to me to take a look, right?"
Zheng Xiaorui still refused.
No matter what, I won't show it to you.
Seeing that Wu Xinyue was still insisting on pestering her, Zheng Xiaorui was about to leave, but met Mo Qin at the door.
There was still a piece of red rope sticking out of Zheng Xiaorui's collar. When Mo Qin heard them talking about jade, she finally found out where the sense of incongruity about her came from.
That jade may not be simple.
Mo Qin tried to stop Zheng Xiaorui from leaving. She asked Wu Xinyue:
"Miss Wu, is there any special marking on your piece?"
"Of course I do. My jade isn't some heirloom, but a token of love between me and my fiancé. There's a letter 'y' engraved on the jade. You can tell if it's mine just by looking at it."
"If it weren't for my offense today, I would also give Miss Zheng some compensation."
Hearing this, Zheng Xiaorui became even more panicked.
Mo Qin didn't miss Zheng Xiaorui's panicked look. She continued to ask, "Where did you lose your jade?"
"It can't be said that it was lost, I just left it in the villa and didn't have time to take it out."
Wu Xinyue gave an address, which happened to be near Mo Qin's home.
Everyone who had been with Zheng Xiaorui at the scene had roughly guessed the truth of the matter.
Zheng Xiaorui looked at Mo Qin with eyes that seemed to be filled with poison, and she wished she could pounce on her and bite her to vent her hatred.
She turned and ran to Zhou Kangning, pulling his arm.
"Brother Kangning, help me."
Wu Xinyue has lost the jade, so it is ownerless. Whoever picks it up owns it!
Why do you want to go back now?
What's more, this jade...
She wouldn't give it to you no matter what you said.
Zhou Kangning protected the people behind him, glared at Mo Qin fiercely, and then said to Wu Xinyue:
"Ms. Wu, this piece of jade is definitely not yours, and we have no obligation to give it to you for inspection. If you still insist, don't blame me for being rude."
Wu Xinyue frowned, she could feel that Zhou Kangning's strength should not be underestimated.
It's not worth it to fight with such a person for a piece of jade.
Even if it's hers, what good will it do to take it back?
The person who owned the other half of the jade is no longer with us...
"I think I made a mistake. I'm sorry."
After Zheng Xiaorui and her group left, Xu Xiaoying became more and more confused.
But she couldn't figure out what secret was hidden in the jade.
In the next few days, she would see words like "jade pendant space" from time to time, and she had some guesses in her mind.
In order to confirm this idea, she began to secretly observe Zheng Xiaorui.
-
After resting at the base for a few days and spending a lot of points, Zhou Kangning's team began to take on tasks to earn points.
I don’t know why, but every time I go on a mission, I will most likely meet Mo Qin and Jiang Lin.
Ever since Zhou Kangning arrived at the base and learned about the side effects of nuclear crystals, he no longer dared to use nuclear crystals to upgrade his superpowers.
He also actively cooperated with the treatment, but the results were minimal.
Recently, he could clearly feel that he had become more irritable and violent, as if his body always had endless energy.
In order to vent his anger, he took all three of them into his room, which could be considered a small harem of poor quality.
Fortunately, he had not used too many nuclear crystals before, and no irreversible consequences have been caused so far.
But every time he saw Mo Qin and Jiang Lin, who had higher levels of abilities than him, he felt extremely frustrated and resentful.
Why are the abilities of these two people always stronger than his?
They must have used the nuclear crystal upgrade.
Since everyone used nuclear crystals, why didn't anything happen to them?
This made him very anxious.
One night, Xu Xiaoying came out of Zhou Kangning's room and happened to meet Zheng Xiaorui who came out to the bathroom.
She brushed away the wet hair on her shoulders, placed one hand across her waist, and exuded a charming look.
"Xiao Rui, my good sister, I know your secret~"
Zheng Xiaorui originally planned to turn a blind eye, but was frozen in place by these words.
secret?
There was no light in her eyes, but a strange arc appeared at the corner of her mouth:
"What secret? Xiaoying, I don't have any secrets. We grew up together. There are no secrets between us."
