Hejing stopped caring whether the Empress Dowager was actually eating chilled watermelon and turned around to happily go with Ruoqiu to choose a jade bead necklace!
[A jade beaded necklace! Oh my! How could I forget my grandmother's sister just because I saw jewelry!]
Although I love money to death too! But I wouldn't be so foolish as to throw my grandmother aside just because I see money! Besides, I believe my grandmother must have prepared a jade beaded necklace for Qianqian to choose from!
