After saying that, he stood up and nodded to the two of them, "I'm going to find Qinqin. Parents, get some rest."
"Wait!" Chen suddenly said, "Here, take this."
She handed Lu Yanzheng a jade pendant, saying, "This is something you had back then. Keep it as a memento!"
Lu Yanzheng took it, glanced at it, and casually stuffed it into his arms, then smiled at Madam Chen and said, "Thank you, Mother."
He left, but Chen and Old Man Lu were still in shock.
Both of them were puzzled. How did he know that?

Jiang Qinyu looked up at him, somewhat speechless, "You really don't know?"
Sometimes she felt that Lu Yanzheng was even more oblivious to social niceties than she was. Given his current status, wasn't it obvious why people came to visit him?
"Hmm..." Seeing his wife getting serious, Lu Yanzheng quickly racked his brains, "Is he trying to curry favor?"
Jiang Qinyu rolled her eyes at him. "More or less, but I don't think he did anything too outrageous. I also quite like that Lu family girl, which is why I didn't refuse."
