Chapter 473: I Can't Help But
Madam Wei secretly gritted her teeth and said, "I thought your mother was so important to you. In that case, come here, smash the jade pendant."
The bodyguard behind him took the jade pendant and smashed it against a stone on the side of the road.
Zhou Dai clenched her fingers tightly, suppressing the urge to rush over to stop her. "Mom, please forgive me. I can't let this old woman control me. Twenty years ago, I couldn't bring the jade pendant to you intact. Twenty years ago, I couldn't do anything..."
"Stop!" Just as the bodyguard was about to smash the jade pendant down, a roar suddenly rang out, scaring the bodyguard so much that he stopped his arm.
Zhou Dai didn't expect that there was someone else here. She turned to the source of the sound in shock, only to see Jingdong striding towards her with a mobile phone in hand, scanning everyone with the camera.
"Senior brother, what are you doing?" Zhou Dai looked at the man holding the phone in surprise.
Jing Dong remained calm and said, "I'm live streaming."
After these words were spoken, Madam Wei's face changed drastically and she immediately turned her back.
Jing Dong curled his lips coldly and walked up to Madam Wei. "Fans in the live broadcast room, please pay attention. This is Madam Wei, the mother of the president of Wei Jewelry Group. Madam Wei, let me introduce myself. I'm the director of SUMING Jewelry. I'm live streaming on our company's official account. I didn't expect to see Madam Wei here. I wonder what Madam Wei was doing just now? Come here."
Jingdong's last words were directed to the bodyguard holding the jade pendant.
When the bodyguard walked over to Madam Wei, Jingdong immediately asked, "This jade pendant belongs to my Secretary Zhou, right? Secretary Zhou, why do I remember you also have half of this jade pendant?"
Zhou Dai, understanding Jingdong's intention, immediately took out the half of the jade pendant she was wearing and placed it together with the half in the bodyguard's hand. "Yes, these two jade pendants were originally a complete piece. Look, everyone in the live broadcast room, can they be put together? This is a relic my grandmother left for my mother. After my mother gave birth to my brother and me, she cut the jade pendant into two halves, and we each got half."
"So Secretary Zhou has a brother? Introduce him to me?" Jingdong's words frightened Madam Wei so much that she quickly interrupted them. "Alright, let's return this jade pendant to its original owner. Turn off the live broadcast."
Hearing this, the bodyguard handed the jade pendant to Zhou Dai, who quickly took it and put it in her trouser pocket.
Jingdong turned off his phone and stared at Madam Wei fiercely. "I hope this is the last time. If you come to harass her again, I don't mind making Wei Jewelry suffer even more."
"You're just a jerk." Old Madam Wei wanted to skin Jingdong alive. If it weren't for Jingdong, she'd have been able to control Zhou Dai. But Jingdong, her helper, showed up and even live-streamed the incident. If the news that Wei Changjiang wasn't her biological son got out, all the relatives in the Wei family would take advantage of it and make things worse. She'd have a miserable old age. After scolding Jingdong, Old Madam Wei, with a dark face, got into the car with her bodyguards and left.
Zhou Dai pulled the half of the jade pendant from her trouser pocket and held it up to the sunlight. Jingdong stood beside her and asked, "Is it real?"
Zhou Dai smiled and nodded, "Really, it's my brother's half."
Jingdong nodded, "That's fine."
After confirming, Zhou Dai put the jade pendant away again, and then looked at Jingdong with deep affection, "Brother, your heroic act of saving the beauty has made me even more obsessed with you."
Jingdong immediately frowned, "What nonsense! If someone else knew you today, they would also come to help you."
"But they are definitely not as smart as you. They don't know how to use such a powerful method as live broadcast to force the old woman to leave." Zhou Dai's eyes were full of love and admiration. How could Jingdong not feel it?
He simply didn't dare to accept Zhou Dai's intense love, and said calmly, "I didn't use the company's account to live stream. I just turned on the video. They were guilty, so they didn't suspect anything."
Zhou Dai blinked. Not only did she think that he was really broadcasting live, not to mention the old lady of the Wei family.
"Okay. By the way, why are you here?" Zhou Dai said suspiciously. "I remember you lived in a community more than 10 kilometers away from me."
Jingdong also had a day off today and had no social engagements. After finishing his chores at home, he drove out for a drive to familiarize himself with the city of Jinghai. During the drive, he had the scenery in his eyes, but Zhou Dai's every frown and smile kept appearing in his mind. He drove here unknowingly. Before Zhou Dai asked him why he was here, Jingdong was very glad that he came here today, but now, facing Zhou Dai's questioning that went to the bottom of the matter, he wished that Zhou Dai would have selective amnesia.
"I have a friend who lives in this community, and I came to visit him to catch up."
"What a coincidence." Jingdong himself didn't know how well Zhou Dai knew him. If he had found another excuse, Zhou Dai might not have doubted him, but he actually said that he took the initiative to find a friend to reminisce about the past. It was really rare to see this in my life. Has this person noticed that he actually never goes to other people's homes to reminisce about the past?
