Chapter 231: The Jade Pendant Lost That Year

her hands gripping the fabric of her chest tightly. Her heart ached as if something had ripped through it with brutal force, pain that felt like thousands of arrows piercing her, unbearable and intens..."Here you go." Bo Jin'gu said.

Night Farewell raised an eyebrow, “You investigated me.”

Bo Jin looked at him with raised eyebrows, "I guessed it."

For the past two months, Bo Jin Yu has not stopped doubting Ye Ci, so he has been keeping an eye on her. He naturally also discovered the amount of money that had been transferred out of her account.

Twenty billion is not a small sum, enough to buy a mansion or other luxury items, but he only has expenses and no other assets in his name. What he bought remains unknown.

It just so happened that those few days were the third day since Shen Ningran's disappearance. Adding to that, Shen Ningran had said she was poisoned, and the poison was peculiar. So, Bo Jin Yu guessed that this sum of money must have been spent on Shen Ningran.

Since it was for Shen Ningran, he deserved to have it back.

"Hmph." Ye Ci smiled ambiguously, letting the check slip from her fingertip onto the table. "What standing do you have to pay this debt for her"

"Husband," Bo Jinyu said seriously.

"Oh." Ye Ci straightened slightly. "Incorrect answer."

It was getting late, so Ye Ci stood up and prepared to leave.

"It was, and it always will be." A cold voice echoed faintly in the silent room.

"Night chuckled, a hint of amusement in her voice, 'Your face is really big.'"

"Take the money away."

Bo Jin'yu added, "If she knew you spent this money for her, she would sell her house, car and company to repay you."

Shen Ningran is like this, after all, she borrowed a few people from him before and still had to pay back some money.

Then she was blocked by him.

Twenty billion, to Ye Ci, was nothing more than a string of numbers. She gave it away without a second thought; she didn't care.

But for Shen Ningran, it was more valuable than gold. She probably wouldn't hesitate to sell her house and car just to repay him.

It seemed to Shen Ningran that having a friend pay for her in this way was excessive.

As night fell, he turned back and took the money. Then, he turned around and left.

Bo Jin Yu got up from the empty conference room and walked out. Zhou Chen stepped forward to report that Zhuang Yumei had gone to find Shen Ningran.

Bo Jinyu frowned, "Is she alright"

"Miss Shen is fine. We had someone with her at the time. However, boss, Miss Shen is back. The Guan family will probably cause a commotion at their grandfather's place."

Guan Jia has been trying to save Guan Xin Yue for the past two months.

But it was obvious that Bo Jin Yu didn't want them to find anyone, they couldn't find anyone at all.

They couldn't find her, but the old man knew very well. Guan Xinyue was locked up in a hidden dungeon in the backyard of the Bo family.

The old man was just feeling upset, and he didn't have anything to tie him down with Bo Jinyu, so he didn't bother with Guan Xin Yue.

Now that Shen Ningran has returned, she is equivalent to Bo Jinyu's soft underbelly. The old master doesn't want to truly feud with the Guan family, so he will definitely take action to save Guan Xin Yue. If Bo Jinyu continues to press down, the old master might resort to his previous tactics again.

Bo Jin looked deeply at her, pondering for a moment. “Go tell the old man that if he wants to bring out Guan Xin Yue, then he shouldn't stop Shen Ning Ran from seeing the child.”

The grandfather and grandson each took a step back.

……

Shen Ningran returned to the Shen family and pushed open the door to walk into the living room.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the woman lying on the couch lazily called out, "Mom, you're back"

Shen Ningran followed the sound and looked over, Shen Jiaoxue just happened to raise her head.

Shen Jiao Xue instantly jumped up from the sofa, looking at Shen Ning Ran with panic, "Sister, sister, you're not dead..."

Shen Jiao Xue covered her mouth, her eyes filled with fear.

Shen Ningran wasn't surprised to see Shen Jiaoxue. The Shen family thought she was dead, and they were still capable of getting Shen Jiaoxue out of prison.

"Where's the old madam" Shen Ningran didn't want to talk to her much.

Although Shen Ningran knew that Shen Jiaxue was used by Guan Xinyue the whole time, taking the blame for her.

But she did have evil intentions to harm her child, willingly being used.

She has no time to deal with her right now, as long as she doesn't continue to cause trouble here, Shen Ningran will just act like she doesn't exist.

Chen Jiao Xue pointed upstairs, dumbfounded. “Grandma... is upstairs.”

Shen Ningran strode forward. As soon as Shen Ningran left, Shen Jiaoxue immediately called Shen Rongde and Cai Fenmin, "Dad, Shen Ningran is actually alive..."

Shen Ningran walked to the old lady's room and knocked lightly on the door.

Not until Old Madam spoke, "Come in," did Shen Ningran step inside.

The old lady was sitting in a rocking chair by the floor-to-ceiling window, wearing her reading glasses, calmly knitting something. Sunlight fell on the old lady, shrouding her in a warm glow.

The elderly Madam raised her head, her gaze falling on Shen Ningran. Her finger paused, she sat up straight, and looked at her in disbelief, "Ranran"

Shen Ningran walked over, "Grandma."

When the old madam saw Shen Ningran, she was so excited that she almost stood up. “Ningran, you”

"Two months ago, something happened that worried you."

The old lady lovingly touched Shen Ningran's face, "It's fine, it's fine that you're alright."

Shen Ningran pursed her lips and smiled gently, "Today I came back besides wanting to see you, there's another thing."

Shen Ningran wasn't someone who liked beating around the bush, so she just said it straight.

“Before my mother left, she gave you a crescent-shaped jade pendant to give me on my wedding day, but you never did. This pendant must be very important. I suddenly remembered it today and wanted to ask Grandma if the pendant is still with you. I would like to take it today.”

Because Shen Ningran's mother passed away when she was very young, everything she left behind was taken by the Shen family members under the guise of safekeeping. It wasn't until much later that Shen Ningran learned about a jade pendant.

Mrs. Shen's eyes flickered, and she lowered her head to fiddle with the yarn in her hands, asking, "Why did you suddenly ask about this"

"Suddenly, I remembered, Grandma, where did you put it"

The old lady lifted her head and looked at her, putting down the thing in her hand. "Ranran, to be honest with you, I accidentally lost the jade pendant and haven't found it yet."

"Lost" Shen Ningran's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"Well, it's all my fault for being careless. I had it in the safe before, but somehow it disappeared. Ra Ra, is that important to you"

The old lady looked at Shen Ningran with a face full of guilt.

Shen Ningran didn't know if the jade pendant was important or not, she only knew that since her mother wanted to give it to her, there must be a reason. Now that it was lost...

How could it be lost

Shen Ningran looked at the old lady with some suspicion, "Grandma, have strange people come to our house"

Logically speaking, things an elderly madam keeps in a safe wouldn't just disappear for no reason.

The old lady had a worried expression. "No one strange has come. It's my fault as a grandmother for not keeping things in order. Ruanruan, how about I compensate you"

"No, Grandma," Shen Ningran refused. The jade pendant's importance couldn't be measured in money.

"What shall we do, Ranran I'm so sorry," the old lady said with guilt.

Shen Ningran saw that Madam Shen was like this, and she couldn't say anything. It was not good to blame an old woman.

"By the way, Ranran, do you remember your mother leaving you a leather box before" The old lady seemed to have suddenly remembered, asking casually.
