Jiang Ning didn't say a word after they got into the car. There was a cold expression on his face.
Lin Yuzhen didn't dare to speak either.
There was a pitiful expression on her face as she behaved cautiously and glanced at Jiang Ning from time to time.
The atmosphere in the car was a little odd. Brother Gou didn't dare to say a word as he drove.
Based on his experience, it would be wisest to pretend he was nothing but air now.
Jiang Ning wouldn't say a word, so Lin Yuzhen sighed helplessly.
She took out a box out from her purse. It looked old, and even the red cloth it was wrapped in had faded over time.
After lifting the red cloth, there was an exquisite wooden box inside. Lin Yuzhen glanced at Jiang Ning again. Since he was ignoring her, she went ahead and opened the box.
A bracelet lay in the box quietly.
Jiang Ning turned his head immediately and stared at the bracelet. There was something completely different about his eyes instantly!
"Where did you get this from?" asked Jiang Ning as he looked at Lin Yuzhen and inhaled deeply.
"My mother-in-law gave it to me," said Lin Yuzhen as she picked up the bracelet and looked at it carefully, "But you don't look happy. Brother Gou, go back. I want to return this. This bracelet is too meaningful for me to keep."
"No, don't!" said Jiang Ning immediately.
Brother Gou was put in a spot. So should he bloody U-turn or not?
"It belonged to my mother," said Jiang Ning as he looked at the bracelet.
He always remembered this bracelet from his childhood days. At the back of his mind, even after many years, he still recalled how it looked.
Although it wasn't expensive and was only an ordinary bracelet, in Jiang Ning's eyes, it was the accessory that he cherished the most on earth.
"Auntie Xue gave it to me. She said your mother left it with her for safekeeping. Auntie Xue has been waiting to give it to the Jiang family's daughter-in-law in the future," said Lin Yuzhen solemnly as she replaced the bracelet carefully, "It's too bad that it's for the Jiang family's daughter-in-law and not me. Brother Gou, let's go back."
Brother Gou pretended not to hear. Instead, he chanted the Diamond Sutra in his heart silently to make himself transparent.
"Keep it," said Jiang Ning with a sigh. He knew what the girl was driving at.
In reality, he had figured it all out.
