Sheng Yi looked at her smile with heartache, but couldn't help but follow her words and make connections.
Fortunately, if she hadn't discovered Liu Yansong's ugly face, wouldn't she have been even more desperate and married into the Zhu family after their incident?
If she really marries him, given Liu Yansong and his parents' selfish and self-serving nature, how can Haohao possibly have a good life?
Moreover, his good health was so fragile at the time, wouldn't that mean...?
Sheng Yi dared not think any further. He simply pulled Zhu Qinghao close and gently embraced her, relieved that she hadn't fallen into a den of wolves and hadn't been devoured by that family of jackals.
"Thank goodness, thank goodness..."
Zhu Qinghao felt his trembling, hugged him back, and said with a smile:
"It's okay, it's all over now."
"Yes, it's all in the past. I'm fine now. From now on, I'll only be happy and joyful, and I'll never experience this pain again."
Soon, Zhu Qinghao realized that the occasion was inappropriate and quickly withdrew from Sheng Yi's embrace.
Fortunately, everyone was discussing past events, and it seemed that no one noticed their outrageous behavior.
Sheng Yi noticed the person in his arms leave, chuckled softly, and leaned closer to her again.
Zhu Qinghao glared at him, but found that he had only moved closer to her and had not done anything else out of line. Only then did she realize that she had misunderstood him.
The two people behind her were just standing close together, and Sheng Yi would occasionally say a few words to her, which made her laugh frequently.
At this point, people began to notice them, stopped talking, and watched them quietly.
Gradually, everyone noticed them, and they all looked at the perfectly matched young couple with loving expressions.
Finally, Sheng Yi noticed that Zhu Qinghao might be embarrassed, so he simply started a conversation.
"Alright, alright, I've given you all my tokens, what about yours?"
The Zhu family then remembered that their jade pendant seemed to still be in Liu Yansong's possession.
Just as Grandpa Zhu was racking his brains for a replacement, he saw Zhu Qinghao pull out the ancestral jade pendant from her "pocket," take Sheng Yi's hand, and carefully place it in his palm.
"Here, this is my family's heirloom jade pendant, which saved our family's lives. Now I'm solemnly handing it over to you!"
This jade pendant is the one that Zhu Qinghao used to open the space. Later, she tried to find a way to use the space normally, and found that she could use it even without this jade pendant.
So she didn't hesitate to take it out at that moment.
Upon hearing this, Sheng Yi quickly held the cup in both hands, as if afraid of dropping it.
"Should I bathe and change my clothes first, then fast for a few days before receiving it? Or should you please store it properly for a few more days?"
Despite saying this, Sheng Yi took the jade pendant without hesitation and carefully put it into his pocket, which amused everyone in the room.
After finishing, he shamelessly added:
"Since Hao Hao insists on giving it to me, then I will respectfully accept."
After he finished speaking, everyone in the room burst into laughter.
"You little rascal, you're always being naughty!"
Sheng Bojian found it both funny and thought that Sheng Yi was being disrespectful in front of the Zhu family, so he deliberately sternly criticized him.
As a result, his statement was met with disapproval from Zhu Huaichuan:
