Chapter 165 - Crystal Necklace

Sixteen years old, and she already knew the truth, yet she didn\'t say anything at all. At least, in the year that Jiang Ruolan left the Jiang Family, she didn\'t seem to have changed at all.

Even though Jiang Ruolan was still just a child in front of her, but to Zhan Lian, this Jiang Ruolan expressed fear and admiration in her.

As for Jiang Ruolan, she continued to endure after learning the truth because she was used to living a life like that. Not knowing how to resist, she had neither the ability nor the opportunity to do anything.

On the other hand, she did not want those who knew the truth to be targeted by those from the Jiang Family. Most of them had gone to other cities, whether they were overseas or passed away, and she had never seen her mother\'s parents before. Perhaps her mother was just an orphan, which was why she lost Jiang Guanyu\'s love, who was so snobbish.

Thus, all these years, Jiang Ruolan could only depend on Jiang Yijun for her life.

Zhan Lian was silent for a moment. It seemed that Jiang Ruolan\'s words had interrupted her original purpose, so she just stared at her for a long time.

"Auntie Lian." Seeing that Zhan Lian was silent, Jiang Ruolan smiled and said, "Can I ask you a question?"

Zhan Lian slightly frowned, not knowing what kind of trick Jiang Ruolan had in her sleeve. This child was much smarter than when she was young,

Zhan Lian had already started to consider a different way of talking to her, but she didn\'t expect Jiang Ruolan to make the first move.

Not once she frowned and looked at her with a hint of coldness in her eyes.

"What do you want to ask?" Zhan Lian\'s tone was calm, but there were traces of caution in her tone.

It was very obvious that if Jiang Ruolan knew this fact, then there would probably be others who would know of it as well. This little girl might very well destroy the image that she had built up between the ladies of the Jiang Family in these twenty odd years.

Jiang Ruolan looked at Zhan Lian\'s cautious gaze with a smile, "Auntie Lian, you don\'t have to be nervous. Who doesn\'t want to live a quiet life? If no one forced me to become anxious, I might hide some of my past deep within my heart. I didn\'t want to see the Jiang Family set off a storm of blood that would drag me into this again, but of course, the precondition would be.." Jiang Ruolan paused and snickered. "You have to control that daughter of yours, don\'t let her mess with me again."

"You are indeed the same as your mother." Finally, Zhan Lian opened her mouth and spoke in a slightly cold and indifferent tone.

Jiang Ruolan wasn\'t in a hurry. She knew Zhan Lian\'s personality.

It was better to provoke a gentleman than a villain. People like Zhan Lian could only erode her rationality bit by bit and could not face her head on with a spear in broad daylight.

But Zhan Lian was wrong.

She, Jiang Ruolan, was different from her mother.

Jiang Ruolan just smiled and lightly shook the remaining tea that was still in her cup. Seeing the light on the ceiling of the private room shining into the water, she carelessly asked, "Did my mother give you a crystal necklace?"

Zhan Lian glared at her when she heard this.

Her original goal was to determine if the necklace was still in Jiang Ruolan\'s hands, but based on what she had said, it seemed that the necklace wasn\'t in her hands.

"You know that necklace too?" Zhan Lian asked indifferently.

"Actually, I didn\'t remember much, but a few months ago, Jiang Bingqing came to my house and then wanted me to hand over the necklace. At first, I didn\'t understand, but then I remembered that I saw a crystal necklace at my mother\'s place when I was very young. In those days, there were few people who understood the value of natural crystals. Those who understood its value were people of high society, and the price of natural crystals at that time was extraordinary as well. It was not something that could be obtained by ordinary people."

"So, why did Jiang Bingqing come looking for it? This really puzzled me. Auntie Lian, can you help me solve this question?"

Jiang Ruolan\'s tone was innocent and at a loss, as if she was very curious about the meaning of the necklace, but the intention was obvious. The crystal necklace was not in her hands.

Zhan Lian initially had some doubts, but after looking at Jiang Ruolan\'s expression and attitude, it seemed like she really did not have it in her hands.

This way, Zhan Lian could be at ease.

"It\'s nothing. Bingqing heard that your mother had a necklace from your father, but she didn\'t know it was broken. She came here to look for it in a fit of anger."

Jiang Ruolan nodded in understanding. She lowered her head and took another sip of tea, her gaze falling on the table.

When they left the teahouse, Zhan Lian got in a taxi while Jiang Ruolan watched her left silently.

She had always thought that the necklace was nothing, but after so long, she suddenly realized how important that necklace was to the Jiang Family. Especially today, when Zhan Lian, who usually disdained her, actually took the initiative to look for her.

It seemed like there was something hidden within the necklace that she didn\'t know about.

The next morning, as Jiang Ruolan was waiting for the person in charge of the building to write the documents, her cell suddenly rang.

When she saw the caller\'s name, her face stiffened. Thinking about how they almost had an accident after drinking at the hotel the other day, how she pushed him away and ran away, Jiang Ruolan didn\'t know whether she should answer the call or not.

She didn\'t hear from him for the past two days. She thought that perhaps he also felt awkward, but she didn\'t expect that this brat\'s awkward period was so short.

Jiang Ruolan hesitated for a long time before answering. The weather was cold and the wind was strong, so she decided to enter the building.

"Where are you?"

As soon as she picked up the phone, she heard Qin Gengxin ask directly.

Jiang Ruolan\'s mouth twitched. As expected, people like him think too fast, just like his Qin Company\'s shares. Every year they rise, it\'s really a jump in the world, but it\'s not strange at all.

"What\'s the matter?" Jiang Ruolan also gave a short answer.

Qin Gengxin was silent for two seconds. Then, he said, "Tell me where you are. I\'ll go look for you."

"Why are you looking for me? I\'m at work, so I don\'t have time to accompany you, Young Master Qin." As she spoke, she vaguely heard the sounds of police cars coming from outside the building. She thought it was just a police car passing by, so she didn\'t pay much attention to it.

"I\'m at your company, sitting in your office. Are you working? Go to your cubicle!"

Jiang Ruolan was speechless. "I have an interview this morning and was waiting for someone outside."

"Where are you waiting?"

Jiang Ruolan: "…"

"Is there really something you need?"

"Yes!"

Damn, why was his tone so unkind today? Was he having a PMS?

In addition, the sound of the police cars outside was getting louder and louder. Jiang Ruolan couldn\'t help but take a glance outside the building and saw that there were several police cars parked nearby. She didn\'t pay them much attention at first, so why were there so many coming over now?

"\'Jiang Ruolan, what sound is that? Where are you?"

All of sudden, Qin Gengxin\'s tone of voice change. It seemed that he heard the sound of the police car as well. It was clear how loud this sound was.

"Seems like quite a few police cars have arrived. I\'ll go take a look." Jiang Rulan was about to hang up when Qin Gengxin cut her.

"Where are you? Speak!" Qin Gengxin urged.

Jiang Ruolan was a little anxious as she heard the voices outside. She also saw a lot of people rushing out of the building to watch the commotion. She could vaguely hear some of them saying that it seemed to be caused by some migrant workers and that President Xian had also come …

Hearing Xian Zihao\'s name, she was even more anxious to get out.

Jiang Ruolan couldn\'t help but say into the phone, "Private building!"

After that, she hung up the phone and quickly walked out.

As she walked out of the building, she discovered that there were already over a dozen police cars parked in the vicinity, including the escalators and large air cushions belonging to the fire brigade.
