C57 (1/2)

The good show was over and the crowd gradually dispersed. Ning Caifu snorted lightly, ”You're about to pop your eyeballs out!”

Li Chen innocently said, ”I don't have any!”

Ning Caifu turned around and walked into a room. Li Chen rubbed his nose and followed. Instinct told him that Ning Caifu seemed a little unhappy right now.

In fact, Ning Caifu was indeed unhappy. Even a fool would know that Li Chen had an unusual relationship with that woman!

”Who is that girl?” Ning Ce'Nedra said directly, her voice thick with displeasure, when they entered the room.

”I don't know her.” Li Chen looked at Ning Caifu with a pure and innocent expression.

”Cut the crap!” If you don't know, what happened to your jade pendant? ” Ning Caifu stared at Li Chen with a look of 'you're lying'.

Li Chen took out his jade pendant once again. The jade pendant was enveloped in a faint light, and with one glance, one could tell that it was not an ordinary jade.

”It's just a jade pendant. It might have been made in a similar manner!” He had a hunch that he could not reveal the relationship between him and Lin Qianyin at this moment.

Ning Caifu blinked. ”So, this jade pendant isn't that important to you?”

”Mm …” Li Chen responded indifferently.

”Then give it to me!” She walked over and took Li Chen's jade pendant. ”This jade pendant seems to suit my heart. Since you haven't returned the favor, why don't you give this to me?”

”Eh …” Li Chen looked at Ning Caifu in surprise.

”What is it? ”You don't want to part with it?” Ning Caifu let out a light snort, ”Hmph!” ”I knew you were lying!”

Ning Caifu subconsciously felt sad. She gripped the jade pendant tightly, wishing she could crush it in her hand.

”Then I'll give it to you!” Li Chen's voice entered his ears.

”What did you say?” Ning Caifu looked at Li Chen in surprise, but her heart was filled with an inexplicable joy.

”This jade pendant is useless to me. Since you like it, then I'll give it to you!” Li Chen thought to himself. Looking at Lin Qianyin's expression, he knew that she would not be willing to marry him. She was just a slightly beautiful woman, and he would not be able to enjoy such a woman.

”Then I won't be polite!” Ning Caifu immediately broke into a smile and put away the jade pendant, as if she was afraid that Li Chen would go back on his word.

Li Chen smiled and shook his head. Compared to Lin Qiyin, he still felt Ning Caifu was cuter.

On the street, Lin Qianyin was walking beside Qin Xiao in a flustered state.

That jade pendant! Her heart trembled at the thought of that jade pendant!

She remembered being treated as a genius when she was very young. Back then, she already knew that she was carrying a marriage with her! She was very afraid that her master would take in a trash as a disciple to disgust her!

How many times had she woken up from a nightmare? Everyone in the dream had called her a good-for-nothing daughter-in-law. She was like a monkey being mocked and watched …

That feeling was too terrifying! When she grew up a little bit, because her Master hadn't accepted any disciples, she didn't want to do this either.

But why …

He was clearly going to be released in a year! Why would such a thing happen? Why did a youth with a jade pendant suddenly appear?

She was really scared!

”A melody? A melody? ” Qin Xiao called out Lin Qianyin's name many times.

Lin Qianyin suddenly came back to her senses. She looked at Qin Xiao and asked, ”What's the matter, Senior Brother?”

Lin Qianyin's eyes were filled with confusion. Qin Xiao had a doting smile on his face as he said, ”What are you thinking about that makes you so engrossed?”

Lin Qianyin shook her head. ”It's nothing. I'm thinking about where my jade pendant is …”

Lin Qianyin did not tell Qin Xiao that her jade pendant had not been lost. Qin Xiao thought that Lin Qianyin was truly troubled by the loss of her jade pendant, so he comforted her softly, ”It's alright, Qianyin. Even if you lose your jade pendant, Martial Uncle will not blame you …”

Lin Qianyin's face was still somewhat pale, but she forced herself to smile and agree. However, only she knew that she had lost the jade pendant! Ling Xuanzi would also force her to marry Li Chen! What should he do? How could he make this engagement come to an end?

”Stop thinking about it!” Qin Xiao pulled Lin Qianyin over and said, ”Let's go to the place where we bought the ingredients yesterday! Buy a piece of better materials and give it to the master who refined the Primordial Profound Seal … I think that master will also be willing to befriend us! ”

Lin Zhiyin nodded.

If Li Chen were to hear these words, he would definitely regret buying that black ink stone from them yesterday. If he were to give it to Lin Qianyin, wouldn't it have been given to him for nothing?

Lin Zhiyin nodded. The two of them walked around for a while, but were unable to find anything suitable. They both felt somewhat depressed.

”That brat!” If he didn't steal the strange stone that we set our eyes on, we wouldn't have needed to look for him for such a long time! ” Qin Xiao couldn't help grumbling.

Looking at the hatred in Qin Xiao's eyes for Li Chen, Lin Zhiyin's heart was moved! If, that guy was dead! Who could use marriage to oppress him?
