Chapter 6 Jade Pendant
Recalling everything from her past life, Ye Ran began to tremble uncontrollably...
She couldn't imagine what her daughter would be treated after she died. Would she be thrown out of the hospital because no one was paying the bills?
Or should she just wait to die? No matter how she thought about it, Ye Ran couldn't come up with a good outcome...
The mere thought of the inevitable consequences nearly overwhelmed her reason with a surge of hatred.
"Ranran... Ranran..." Bai Yue called out worriedly.
Hearing her mother's worried calls, Ye Ran gradually came to her senses and forced a smile, "It's okay, Mom, I'm just a little tired."
Bai Yue touched her forehead with concern: "It seems you were frightened when you fell into the water yesterday. You should rest at home today!"
Ye Jun also said worriedly, "That's right, you should rest well today! Your mother and I are going to work now, and we'll go and thank that educated youth Lu properly when we get back tonight!"
Ye Ran smiled softly, "Okay, Mom and Dad, be careful on the road."
After her parents left, Ye Ran immediately closed the door, returned to her room, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down quickly.
Then he quickly unbuttoned his collar and took out a pendant, a smooth jade pendant shaped like a water droplet, with a slightly warm luster, which made people feel happy just by looking at it. It turned out to be a precious piece of mutton fat jade!
Ordinary mutton fat jade is already quite valuable, not to mention the amazing craftsmanship of this jade pendant.
On this thumb-sized piece of mutton fat jade, there was a lifelike lotus pond scene carved on it. It was hard to imagine what kind of craftsmanship was required to carve such an exquisite pattern on such a small piece of jade.
The entire picture is composed of lotus leaves and lotus flowers. Dewdrops still remain on the lotus leaves, as if they are about to fall off the edge of the leaves at any moment, making people feel a sense of unease.
What's even more remarkable is the lotus flower at the center of the jade pendant. The lotus flower is half-hidden, as if concealing endless shyness, making people unable to resist peeking into its secrets.
Ye Ran gently pressed on the lotus flower, and a bead fell out from the center of the lotus flower. The bead looked like it was carved from jade, and what was most amazing was that the bead had nine holes!
In her previous life, Ye Ran only discovered by chance that the jade pendant actually contained a hidden mechanism and had a secret.
At that time, she and Xu Qingyan were deeply in love. Because she always wore the jade pendant close to her body, she was too embarrassed to show it to Xu Qingyan, so Xu Qingyan was unaware of its existence.
It wasn't until their wedding night, when they were completely honest with each other, that Xu Qingyan saw the jade pendant for the first time, and he was immediately stunned.
Xu Qingyan stared blankly at the jade pendant, "Ranran, this, this is..."
Ye Ran blushed and said coquettishly, "It's just an ordinary pendant, what are you still paying attention to at a time like this!"
Xu Qingyan immediately reacted and pulled her into his arms. Because of this, Ye Ran didn't notice the expression on Xu Qingyan's face at that moment—a face etched with desire…
After their marriage, Xu Qingyan kept subtly inquiring about the origin of the jade pendant, and Ye Ran naturally told him everything.
This jade pendant is a family heirloom passed down through generations in Ye Ran's mother Bai Yue's family.
Legend has it that long ago, the Bai family was a wealthy and powerful family that owned a large area of land. Their house was decorated with carved beams and painted rafters, and they had a large number of servants.
Not only is it nestled against the mountains and beside the water, but the house also features a small bridge over a stream, and there is a large lotus pond nearby.
