Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
They didn’t expect to hear about Beauty Pavilion again.
Yue Jiaojiao and Zhao Zhan looked at each other, and the latter nodded. He then looked at the man on the ground with a serious expression and said, “Since you said that your jade pendant is worth a thousand silver, why don’t you take it out and give us a look?”
“I don’t mind showing it to you, but don’t dirty my jade pendant with your dirty hands!”
As the man spoke, he handed the item over.
The jade pendant had been broken into three pieces. Zhao Zhan showed the item to Yue Jiaojiao for a look, then lowered his voice and said softly, “Jiaojiao, the bottom right corner of this jade pendant does have the same mark as yours.”
!!
Fang Tianliu looked at both of them intently. He was a little impatient but didn’t dare to raise his voice. “What are you guys talking about? What mark? Does this thing really belong to the Beauty Pavilion?”
The moment she saw the jade pendant, Yue Jiaojiao felt a sharp pain in her head.
However, the pain was curt, and she didn’t even catch a fragment of her memory. However, it was highly likely that this jade pendant might be related to her.
“You said that he bumped into you, and then your jade pendant fell to the ground and shattered, right?” Yue Jiaojiao held the jade pendant tightly. She looked up at the man and said coldly, “I have a few questions that I would like to clarify with you. If we are sure that it is our fault, we will not deny the right to compensate you.”
His face was full of frustration when she spoke. “I don’t know why a woman like you is meddling in men’s affairs… But for a pretty girl like you…”
Before he could finish, someone grabbed his collar tightly.
Zhao Zhan immediately pressed him to the ground, his fingers pinching his mouth tightly. His eyes were cold. “Tell me. Why can’t she?”
Chen Xiaolang’s eyes were filled with fear as he blinked his eyes with great effort.
How could this man be so strong? After being thrown to the ground, he felt as if his butt bone was going to be smashed into pieces.
Seeing him blink, Zhao Zhan let go of his hand and stood back next to Jiaojiao.
Fang Tianliu moved to his side with a face full of flattery. “Nice one, Zhao Zhan!”
“When Fang Tianliu ran into you, how did you tie this jade pendant on your waist? This jade pendant is so expensive, and it’s from Beauty Pavilion. I wonder if it’s made of silk or pearls? I can see that your body size is similar to mine. Even if you’re good at fighting, this has nothing to do with whether the jade pendant is broken or not. According to the position of your belt and the length of the ribbon that passes through the jade pendant, the remaining height may not be enough to make the jade pendant break into such a state when it hits the ground.”
“What nonsense are you talking about? You didn’t see it with your own eyes. The jade pendant is broken, just admit that you don’t want to pay! This jade pendant was hanging on my waist, so I don’t know when or how it came loose. Moreover, I don’t know where the ribbon fell when we were fighting just now, so how can I find it now?”
Zhao Zhan said sternly, “Since that’s the case, we’ll go to the chief to judge this matter. When we go to the chief, he won’t be as nice as my wife!”
“Chief? Let him see for himself then! Who’s afraid of you!”
Yue Jiaojiao had been paying attention to Chen Xiaolang’s expression. When she saw him like this, she casually played with the broken piece of the jade pendant in her hand and gently said, “Normally, a jade pendant that falls from a high height would definitely have traces of scratches and splatters on the corners.
“But this piece in my hand, the edges are neat, and the broken parts are also very neat. Does it look like it was formed by the sudden cracking of the ground by some heavy force?
“I wonder… Will I be able to sue you for using something you picked up to blackmail people for money if I go to the chief’s office?”
