Chapter 68 Seeing the Jade Pendant
Chu Yunshu didn't expect to see the jade pendant so early in the morning.
Ji Heng told him that he would show the script of "The Imperial Cause" to him during the reading, and he was eagerly waiting for that time.
After breakfast, Ji Heng suggested going out for a walk, and he followed him out without thinking much.
He still wanted to explain to Ji Heng what happened last night.
The layout of Lingyue Building is different from that of the banquet hall yesterday. It is more luxurious, with a modern-style garden. It is very grand and high-end, and technological elements can be seen everywhere.
It has a futuristic feel and doesn't look like a holiday resort.
It can be seen that the planting of flowers and plants has been carefully designed, but Chu Yunshu has no intention of appreciating the beauty of the garden. He is thinking about what happened last night.
There is no doubt that Helian Jie, Qi Zhao and Lin Yang drugged him, but perhaps because they were concerned that this was Leng Haoqing's territory, they did not dare to be too presumptuous and only used more common drugs for him.
Yes, he was just a small-time actor with no status or background. In their opinion, he should be very easy to control and there was no need to bother with complicated medicine.
As for Fu Lin, Chu Yunshu still hasn't figured out what role he played in it.
Originally, I thought Fu Lin was just an actor with some fame who had acted in a few dramas, but he was able to take him from Helianjie's lounge to Ji Heng's room without any hindrance last night. Obviously, it was not that simple.
But why did he do that?
As for what happened last night, what did Ji Heng think? He seemed to have kissed Ji Heng last night. Although it was just a light touch, he still took advantage of Ji Heng.
Therefore, Chu Yunshu has been observing Ji Heng's expression.
He probably wasn't angry with him, otherwise he wouldn't have seen him here today.
only......
"This is it!" Something suddenly flashed in front of him. Chu Yunshu looked closely and found that it was the jade pendant he had been thinking about. It had torn through the cracks in time and space, spanning two worlds, and now appeared in front of him.
"Don't you want to see it?" Ji Heng extended his hand holding the jade pendant forward, and Chu Yunshu quickly reached out to take it.
The jade pendant still carried Ji Heng's body temperature and was very warm.
After seeing the appearance of the jade pendant clearly, Chu Yunshu's body shook. Even though he was mentally prepared, when the jade pendant was actually lying in the palm of his hand, he still couldn't suppress the shock in his heart.
That's it!
The jade pendant that Qi Xiubai handed to him personally, and which he later wore around his neck, he never expected that he would still be able to see it after traveling to another world.
The falling tears shattered on the jade pendant, and countless tiny water droplets reflected colorful reflections in the sunlight, which were almost invisible to the naked eye.
Not expecting him to have such a reaction, Ji Heng's frown became tighter and tighter.
This jade pendant appeared in Ji Heng's hand for no reason after he woke up from the car accident.
He and Ji Chen both suspected that someone had sneaked in and set the fire while he was unconscious.
But after thinking about it carefully, I felt that it was impossible. Both Mr. Ji and Mr. Leng said that they did not recognize this jade pendant and it was not placed there by them.
While Ji Heng was in a coma, the security in his ward was very strict, and it was impossible for a stranger to enter.
But this jade pendant just appeared in his hand out of thin air, and every time Ji Heng held it, he always had a feeling of palpitations. This feeling was not pleasant, and it was a kind of suppressed pain.
At the same time, it gave him a very familiar feeling of intimacy, and the same contradictory feeling did not contradict him in his body, as if this jade pendant had originally belonged to him.
He has never deliberately hidden it. After becoming famous, he would carry this jade pendant in his hand at many events, and his fans also knew that he had a favorite jade pendant.
But over the years, Chu Yunshu was the only one who tried his best to see him for the jade pendant.
Seeing the young man opposite holding the jade pendant in his hand as if it were a treasure, Ji Heng's heartbeat gradually quickened. He now felt that this jade pendant seemed to belong to Chu Yunshu.
But he and Chu Yunshu had never met before, so there shouldn't be this kind of unclear involvement.
An emotion he had never felt before overflowed from his chest, making him want to hug the crying person in front of him, but he restrained himself.
A faint sense of irritation arose.
Chu Yunshu loved this jade pendant very much at the beginning, not only because it was given to him by Qi Xiubai, but also because it was made of the finest mutton-fat jade. It felt soft to the touch and the carving was very delicate, especially the peach blossom on the pendant, which was lifelike, just like the peach blossom he saw in the moonlight on that dying night.
It is so beautiful that you don’t want to leave.
But the jade pendant in his hand was not complete, a piece of it was knocked off. Chu Yunshu gently stroked that spot and said, "The peach blossom has been knocked off."
It's not a question, but an exclamation and regret.
Ji Heng's sharp eyes suddenly shrank: "What did you say?"
Chu Yunshu seemed unaware of his sudden change in tone. He just stared at the jade pendant and murmured, "Here, the peach blossom has been knocked off."
He raised his eyes, tears rolling down his cheeks silently.
"The rope is broken, why don't you change it?" The rope on the jade pendant was woven by Chu Yunshu himself, and he learned how to make the cord from the little palace maid.
After pulling out the sword that was inserted into Qi Xiubai's chest, he pulled the jade pendant off his neck. The rope was very strong, so when he pulled it off hard, a deep cut was left on his neck.
The rope broke, the jade pendant was thrown out and broken, and his favorite peach blossom was knocked off.
"Who are you?" Ji Heng tried his best to suppress the heartache in his chest. With red eyes, he asked Chu Yunshu, "Who are you?"
Both of them were in an unstable mood at the moment. They seemed to be enveloped in a small world and could not feel the existence of the outside world at all.
Chu Yunshu was still crying. He saw again in Ji Heng's eyes the sadness that Qi Xiubai felt when he left.
How could I do this? He thought, he obviously loved Qi Xiubai so much, why did he kill him?
Just because of that whistleblower letter? Because of seemingly irrefutable evidence? Just because Qi Xiubai was hiding something, he confessed in person?
At this moment, Chu Yunshu finally admitted that he always thought of Qi Xiubai these days because he loved him.
After traces of Qi Xiubai's possible existence appeared in this world, his longing for him grew stronger day by day.
He reached out his hand and touched Ji Heng's face: "Qi Xiubai, I..."
A huge force in his hand made him wake up quickly. The person in front of him was not Qi Xiubai, but Ji Heng.
But why did he feel more and more that Ji Heng had a familiar feeling?
Is it because of this jade pendant?
Chu Yunshu looked at the jade pendant blankly, then looked at Ji Heng: "Ji Heng, where did this jade pendant come from?"
His voice was very soft, as if he was afraid to startle someone.
Ji Heng's dark eyebrows were darker and more serious than usual. He did not answer Chu Yunshu's words, but asked him: "Who are you?"
Chu Yunshu knew what he was asking, but he couldn't explain it to Ji Heng, so he could only say, "I've seen this jade pendant before. It... has been on my body for three years."
He didn't know whether Ji Heng believed it or not, but in the end Ji Heng did not take the jade pendant away, but left it to him.
