In the evening, they all gathered at the Shen's villa and reacted differently after reading Lil Xi's mail.

"What do you think?" Ouyang Jin asked Shen Xinglan, "If it's true, the guy's situation is not good..."

Shen Xinglan watched A Miao empty her soup bowl, and then said, "He won't lie to us. Since he said it, it's true."

"I thought you had blacklisted him!" Ouyang Jin raised his glass. "Then shall I save him?"

Ding V raised his hand and said, "I'll go too."

He Shishi glanced at him and saw that he was shaking his head toward Wei Meng, trying to let her feed him. He Shishi sneered disdainfully and said, "You are a dog now. Do you want to leave your master?"

"I can go with him." Wei Meng glanced at He Shishi as if she was saying, "Well, look at you. You want to go, but no one is willing to take you..."

He Shishi sneered. "You go? What are you going to do? Are you going to walk him with a rope?"

"Stop quarreling. The dishes are getting cold." A Miao persuaded them and tried not to laugh. Shen Xinglan gave her a look which told her not to care about them, but just satiated herself.

Wei Meng and He Shishi thought, "Do you think we can't understand what you mean? We will come to your house every day for a meal!"

"Let me go with Ding V." Ouyang Jin gave the final verdict.

Shen Xinglan shook his head. "No, I'll go this time too."

"Xinglan?" A Miao didn't expect him to go.

"The people behind it started planning more than a decade ago. For what? And what exactly do you have to do with the bronze mirror jade pendant? I'm going to find out the truth myself."

A Miao blinked. "Do I have something to do with the bronze mirror jade pendant?"

"Didn't you tell her?" Ouyang Jin raised his eyebrows.

Shen Xinglan stood up. "Wait a moment."

He went to the study and came back with the bronze mirror jade pendants.

"What's the difference between the two pieces?" Shen Xinglan put the bronze mirror jade pendants on the table.

They gathered at the table.

"What's wrong with this piece?" He Shishi pointed to the left one. "Fake?"

It was exactly the one that A Miao stole from Xia family in the very beginning. Shen Xinglan looked at the jade pendant and then looked at A Miao. Both of them felt as different as if a lifetime had passed.

"It's blood." Wei Meng looked at it. "Human blood."

"How could you tell..." He Shishi murmured.

Shen Xinglan touched the red line on the bronze mirror jade pendant. "This is A Miao's blood."

"Mine... mine?" A Miao pointed to herself. Why didn't she know?

"You scratched your hand when you gave it to me." Shen Xinglan liked to see his woman staring at her eyes and opening her mouth. He couldn't help kissing her on the corner of her mouth.

"Then I found that jade pendant absorbed your blood." Shen Xinglan said, went to the side and grabbed Ding V's hand. He took a toothpick and pricked it in Ding V's hand.


Others: o(╯□╰)o

"Other people's blood doesn't work." Shen Xinglan dripped the blood of Ding V's finger onto the other piece of jade pendant.

Ding V pinched his finger happily and vigorously, being afraid it was not enough.

"Why?" A Miao understood now. "Only can my blood do it?"

Shen Xinglan hugged her shoulder. "Don't be afraid. I will accompany you no matter what happens."

"I'm not afraid." A Miao sighed. "I... I just think it's amazing..."

Not to mention that she was Shanshan, but now even her blood was different from others'. She just felt that it had opened the door of the new world.

"So I will go personally. There must be something we want in that institute." Shen Xinglan's expression became gloomy and cold. "Wait for Shen II's news. We will start when everything is ready."

After supper, Ouyang Jin went to the study with Shen Xinglan alone.

"Here you are!" He handed Shen Xinglan a photo.

Shen Xinglan frowned. "Bronze mirror jade pendant? Where did you get it?"

"At my home." Ouyang Jin smiled. "This time, I found it when I went back to make arrangements for my brother's funeral."

Shen Xinglan was silent for a moment. "Can you get it out?"

"I can try." Ouyang Jin shrugged his shoulders. "I heard that it was left by my grandma."

"If we can get it, we'll have five bronze mirror jade pendants in total." Shen Xinglan looked at the photo. "I hope the institute can tell us the secrets of these jade pendants."

He Shishi was stopped at the foot of the mountain when she drove back.

"What? Why don't you rush back to accompany your sister-in-law and waste time on me?" She accentuated the word "sister-in-law" deliberately and sounded full of irony.

Ouyang Jin didn't care at all. He pulled the door and sat in. "Give me a ride!"

"No time." He Shishi shut the car down. "I'm not going your way."

"I have something serious to discuss with you. Stop joking." Ouyang Jin looked at her with a smile.

For a moment, He Shishi wanted to give him a shot. It was this kind of smile, careless and full of temptation that drowned her under the man's appearance for a time, covering her eyes from seeing his heart.

He never had her in his heart.

"Say it!" He Shishi started the car.

Some people said that made a step forward and there would be a bigger world in front of you. Just a few seconds ago, she suddenly put everything down. From then on, she was alone and had nothing to do with him.

"You..." Ouyang Jin's eyes turned black, and he thought it was his own illusion. Why did she suddenly give him a feeling that she had been liberated? And he inexplicably hated this feeling.

"Say it." He Shishi drove the car very fast. "We'll get there in a minute, and I won't wait for you even if you haven't finished your words."

Ouyang Jin chuckled and put aside those strange feelings and said directly, "I think you have to pretend to be my girlfriend one more time."

Crack! The harsh braking sound made the eardrum ache.

He Shishi bounced twice on the back of the car seat and shouted at him, "Are you crazy? Or are you raising fish in the brain? Are you addicted to acting?"

"You're always impatient." Compared with He Shishi who was hysterical, Ouyang Jin rested calmly on the back of the chair and blinked his beautiful and amorous eyes. "In order not to bore you, this time I decided to let you be my fiancee, and we will get engaged when we get back!"

"Idiot!" He Shishi swore. "Fuck off! Get out of the car!"

Ouyang Jin pushed her hands away. "Listen to the reason first. I do it for A Miao."

"A Miao?" He Shishi took back her hands and tidied her hair. She shot a glare at him. "Say! Get out of here if you say something wrong."

Ouyang Jin repeated what Shen Xinglan told him, and finally said, "If we go back to engagement, my grandfather will give you the bronze mirror jade pendant as a dowry, which is the most convenient and fastest way!"

"Pfft!" He Shishi despised him. "There is a ready-made candidate around you. If you marry her, everything will be settled."

He had been waiting for Chi Ling for so many years, and now he could be with her legitimately. It was a great joy for everyone.

"I'll never be with her." Ouyang Jin looked at He Shishi and said, "The women in the Ouyang's family can't remarry. She will always be my sister-in-law."

He Shishi's eyes changed. Ouyang Jin's face became black. "Don't think nonsense. Nothing happened between her and me."

"Sister-in-law and brother-in-law..." He Shishi sneered. "What a thrilling topic! That's good, too."

Ouyang Jin could not be bothered to explain it to her. He waved his hand and said, "Get to the point. Do you agree or disagree?"

"I'll think about it." He Shishi stiffly started the car. "Why aren't you getting out?"

"No hurry." Ouyang Jin pushed the door open. "Think it over and tell me the answer after we rescue Lil Xi."

Shen Xinglan and the others were waiting for Shen II's information, while A Miao received a phone call from a stranger.

"Are you Miss A Miao, please?" The voice on the other end sounded very strange. It was a young man.

"Yeah, who's this?"

The person on the other end of the phone was obviously relieved. "Great! I thought you didn't use this number anymore!"

"Who are you?" A Miao asked curiously, "What can I do for you?"

"You don't know me, but do you know a woman named Song Baohua?"

A Miao got excited immediately. "Who did you say? Song Baohua? Is she with you?"

"Take it easy. Here's the thing..."

It turned out that this man was Song Lin, a relative of Song Baohua in the same village, who was her distant nephew.

"Two years ago, Auntie Song's younger generation died in a traffic accident, leaving her alone." Song Lin told A Miao. "I'm afraid it's inconvenient for an old person to live alone, so I often take care of her."

But Song Lin would go abroad in the next year. He could not rest assured that Song Baohua lived alone. He heard that Auntie Song had taken care of a girl. And now the girl seemed to have married a rich man.

"I just want to try to find you and see if you can take care of her." Song Lin asked with a little hesitation. After all, there was no blood relationship between them. No one knew whether A Miao would recognize the previous things.

"Of course I will!" A Miao said happily, "I've been looking for her too, but unfortunately, I lost touch with her."

She changed her cell phone number. The previous number was redone by Shen Xinglan. There was nothing in the system. She just started using it recently. Unexpectedly, it happened that Song Lin met the right time.

"No wonder nobody answered my phone calls before!" Song Lin was also very happy. "When is it convenient for you? And I'm going to book a ticket for Auntie Song."

A Miao didn't let Song Lin buy the ticket. She booked Song Baohua a plane ticket to City S three days later.

"Song Baohua?" Shen Xinglan searched the person in his mind.

"That's the baozi shop before." A Miao reminded him. "I and Auntie Song's daughter..."

"I see." Shen Xinglan kept a poker face. "That girl who harmed you."

A Miao smiled and shook his arm. "Don't do that. It's been so long. Now Auntie Song was alone. I want to take care of her at our home."

"At home?" Shen Xinglan frowned. Even Ding V was driven away by him, moreover, Song Baohua, who was a stranger to him. But she was very kind to A Miao. And she was half of A Miao's mother.

"You don't like that..." A Miao's smiling face collapsed. "Auntie Song is too old to go back and sell steamed bun anymore."

Shen Xinglan raised his eyebrows and bit her ears. "Let me use the last position at night. If you make me comfortable, I will agree with that!"

Not to mention what A Miao had experienced this night that she was tossed and turned by him like a fish. And she slept all day the next day before she recovered.

So she missed Song Lin's phone call, which frightened him into thinking she regretted it.
