C27 How Many Secrets Does He Still Have to Hide from Me

"Let me ask you, did the Twin Dragon Jade Pendant in Lo Jinxia's hand get taken away by you?" Gong Yuncheng slammed his palm heavily on the table of the Golden Silk Nanmu, causing Shen Yaoting and Zhao Yuemei to tremble in fear.

Zhao Yuemei looked at Shen Yaoting and quipped in a very soft voice, "What jade pendant are you talking about, I don't know..."

"You don't know?" Gong Yuncheng's voice suddenly turned cold, scaring Zhao Yuemei so much that her face turned pale.

Lo Jinxia saw this and quickly took the opportunity to pour dirty water on him, "Auntie, the jade pendant that the old man mentioned is the Twin Dragon Jade Pendant that I brought when I came to South City to study. I remember that you also said it was pretty and wanted me to give it to you. I refused to give it to you, so you found someone to steal my jade pendant in the middle of the night! "

Zhao Yuemei angrily glared at Lo Jinxia and angrily said, "You wretched girl, how can you say that? Can I do that kind of thing? Is your aunty such a morally corrupt person?"

Lo Jinxia laughed," Is that so? Do you need me to say it? How did you take over the house that my parents left for me? Do you want me to explain it clearly in front of so many people? That jade pendant was still on my neck at night, but it disappeared in the morning. If you didn't steal it, who else could it be?"

"Don't slander me. I want it. Can't I take it openly? Why would I need to steal it? " Zhao Yuemei's face turned grim as she stretched out her neck and argued anxiously.

At this moment, Gong Yuncheng impatiently waved his hand to signal the two to shut up. "Since you said you didn't take it, then I will go to your house to search. I am warning you, if you really find the jade pendant at your house, don't blame me for being impolite!"

After saying that, Gong Yuncheng waved his hand to signal his men to leave. Zhao Yuemei saw this and quickly exchanged glances with Shen Yaoting who was beside her.

Shen Yaoting took advantage of the time before Gong Yuncheng's men left and quickly pulled Zhao Yuemei's hand and said, "Stop, stop messing around. Since old mister Gong wants it, you can take it out."

Zhao Yuemei gritted her teeth and finally said with a pale face, "Jade pendant, the jade pendant is in a wooden box in our basement."

Gong Yuncheng was stunned for a moment and immediately waved to his subordinates. His subordinates quickly left. It seemed that they went to get the jade pendant Zhao Yuemei mentioned.

The reaction of the two of them shocked Lo Jinxia.

Why did they suddenly admit it? That jade pendant was clearly...

Gong Mingyang saw Lo Jinxia looking at Zhao Yuemei and Shen Yaoting with a puzzled look and quickly walked in front of her. He extended his arm and pulled her little head into his arms.

"Father, Jinxia's body is not very good. Shall I take her out first?" Gong Mingyang tried his best to be polite and discuss with his father.

Gong Yuncheng glanced at him and Lo Jinxia coldly. Because Lo Jinxia was hiding in Gong Mingyang's arms, he could not see the expression on her face clearly.

"Sit down first. When the matter is settled, I will naturally let her go." Gong Yuncheng said in a deep voice.

Gong Mingyang did not say anything else. He carried Lo Jinxia and sat on the sofa beside him.

Ten minutes later, Gong Yuncheng's subordinate returned with a piece of suet jade Twin Dragon Jade Pendant in his hand.

Lo Jinxia quietly looked up and found that Gong Yuncheng's subordinate had brought it over. It was actually the same piece that she had worn before. This piece of jade, regardless of its appearance. or... It was exactly the same as the jade pendant she had worn before.

However, she also noticed one detail, which was that the pendant on the jade pendant was different from the one she wore before.

The pendant she had worn previously was green, but now, it had changed into a bright red color.

When Gong Mingyang first gave it to her, the pendant was red. After the accident at home, Lo Jinxia felt that red was like blood and inauspicious, so she changed it to green. But why did the jade pendant in front of her become bright red again?

Could it be that this jade pendant was...

Lo Jinxia's heart suddenly sank. She was afraid that the expression in her eyes was not right and that Gong Yuncheng would see it. She quickly pretended to lean on Gong Mingyang's body weakly.

Gong Mingyang also understood her meaning and hugged her person, trying his best to avoid Gong Yuncheng's inspection.

Gong Yuncheng held the jade pendant in his hand. After carefully examining it for a while, he turned to Shen Yaoting and his wife and said, "How did you get this jade pendant?"

Zhao Yuemei replied in a low voice, "Yes, I stole it from Little Xia in the middle of the night. I, I think this jade pendant is quite valuable, so..."

Shen Yaoting saw this and quickly explained to Gong Yuncheng, "Old mister Gong, my wife stole something from Little Xia. It is not right. When we go back, I will teach her a good lesson!"

After Gong Yuncheng took the jade pendant, he nodded his head in satisfaction and then turned his eyes to Lo Jinxia and Gong Mingyang.

"Jinxia will be my daughter-in-law from now on. If you dare to disrespect her again, don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Yes, yes, yes. We won't dare do it again. We won't do it again!" The two of them hurriedly lowered their heads, looking submissive.

Gong Yuncheng waved his hand, indicating that the two of them could leave. After the two of them left, he stood up with the jade pendant in his hand and slowly walked in front of Gong Mingyang and Lo Jinxia.

"Mingyang, I will take the jade pendant back and find someone to appraise it. You have no objections, right? "

Gong Mingyang supported Lo Jinxia to stand up. The smile on his face was very deliberate. "This jade pendant was originally given to me by my father back then. Not to mention that you only took it back to appraise it, even if you take it back, I have no objections."

Gong Yuncheng nodded and did not say anything else. He took the jade pendant and turned around to leave.

After Gong Yuncheng left, Lo Jinxia suddenly raised her head with a complicated expression and looked coldly at Gong Mingyang's face.

"That jade pendant is fake, right?"

Although she didn't have the ability to appraise treasures, she could tell at a glance. The pendant was not real. If Zhao Yuemei really stole her jade pendant... There was no reason to change the pendant midway. Furthermore, that pendant looked like it was used. It did not look like it was newly changed.

Gong Mingyang reached out his hand and pinched her small nose. He whispered in her ear, "You have good eyesight."

Did he admit it? But...

Lo Jinxia looked at Gong Mingyang's face with even more suspicion. She kept feeling that something was not right.

How did he know that his father would come and ask for the jade pendant today? Did he make the fake jade pendant in Zhao Yuemei's hand in advance and give it to her? Was all of this a trap set up by Gong Mingyang?

If it was, then what was his purpose?

"Shouldn't you explain to me what exactly is going on?" Lo Jinxia pushed Gong Mingyang's arm over and looked at him as if she was looking at a stranger.

Gong Mingyang was not in a hurry. He only said slowly, "You are not in good health. Help you lie on the bed. Wait for me to tell you slowly."

Lo Jinxia clenched her fingers and took a deep breath. Finally, she compromised and said, "Okay."

She did not need Gong Mingyang to help her. She opened the door and went back to the bedroom by herself.
