C27 Lu
In a big manor in the suburbs of Beijing, there were dozens of luxury cars parked at the entrance of the manor. They were mostly BMW and Mercedes-Benz cars, which made the surrounding environment a lot more colorful.
In a luxurious villa in the manor, a beautiful girl sat quietly on a chair by the French window, looking at the birds outside the window who were chirping and looking for food. She was fiddling with a Dragon Mark Jade Pendant in her hand, and her thoughts were no longer outside the window.
At this time, an old woman dressed in a dignified manner walked behind the girl. Looking at this woman's appearance, she must have been an outstanding beauty decades ago. Unfortunately, she was not around. Today, although this woman could still see the brilliance of the past on her face, the wrinkles on her face betrayed her true age.
"Xiao Xiao, grandma, grandma. I came to see you. What's wrong with you? Are you sick?" The old woman spoke in a gentle voice.
This old woman was Xiao Xiao's grandmother, the leader of the Lu Corporation - Lyu Ying.
Xiao Xiao heard Lyu Ying's question and came back to her senses. She turned her head to look at Lyu Ying and forced a smile on her face. She said, "Grandma, you are here."
"What is wrong with this child of yours? I have been here for a while." Lyu Ying said worriedly.
"I'm fine. Grandma, don't worry. It's just that I've been feeling a little uncomfortable these two days. Besides,i think I've caught a cold." Xiao Xiao said.
"Why don't you take good care of yourself, child? Your father really is. His daughter is sick and doesn't know how to find a doctor. She even wanted me, an old man, to come and take a look. " Lyu Ying stroked Xiao Xiao's embroidered hair and said with slight anger.
" I'm fine. Grandmother, don't blame father. Father is busy and I didn't tell him. " Xiao Xiao was afraid that Lyu Ying would question her father and quickly explained.
Lyu Ying's eyes looked up and saw Xiao Xiao playing with the jade pendant. Her eyes lit up and she smiled and said, "Jade curing hundreds of illnesses. Xiao Xiao, this jade pendant on your body is of the highest quality. Was it given to you by your father?"
Lyu Ying was born in a high class society so her eyes were naturally very experienced. With just a glance, she knew that the jade pendant that Chen Tianming gave Xiao Xiao was of high quality.
"Grandmother, you guessed wrong. This Jade Pendant was not given by father." Xiao Xiao said with a smile. Xiao Xiao saw Lyu Ying asking about the jade pendant and could not help but laugh. It was as if her illness had disappeared in an instant.
Lyu Ying naturally saw the sudden change in Xiao Xiao's expression and heard Xiao Xiao say that this dragon patterned jade pendant was not given by Xiao Xiao's father and could not help but think about it.
Xiao Xiao saw that her grandmother was silent and also knew that her performance just now was a little too much. She hurriedly said, "Grandmother, don't think too much..."
"Why would grandma think so much? You are such a girl. Could it be that you are thinking too much? You must be thinking about the person who gave you this jade pendant. Did Grandma guess correctly? " Lyu Ying smiled and interrupted Xiao Xiao's words. She did not want her granddaughter to explain anything. She was experienced. How could she not guess Xiao Xiao's little tricks? Her granddaughter definitely had someone in her heart. Only when she had a heart would she not be able to eat or think.
"Grandmother you..." Xiao Xiao's face instantly turned red. For a moment, she did not know what to say.
Lyu Ying saw Xiao Xiao's face turn red and laughed loudly, "Quickly tell grandma which family's child is it! Let grandma also have a number in her heart. "
Seeing Lyu Ying ask so directly, Xiao Xiao's face became even redder.
"Haha, don't be embarrassed. You are already at the age of falling in love. I have already given birth to your father at your age." Lyu Ying saw that Xiao Xiao was embarrassed and quickly said.
"Grandma, he, you definitely don't know about him." Xiao Xiao saw that her secret was exposed by Lyu Ying and said somewhat awkwardly.
"Oh? Only those few children are worthy of our family's Xiao Xiao. Those few children's grandmothers have also seen them before. How could they not know?" Lyu Ying said with some doubt.
"No, it's not that. It's not those people. It's a classmate of mine!" Xiao Xiao said those words in embarrassment but still looked at Lyu Ying with some anticipation, hoping to see something from Lyu Ying's face.
"Your classmate? What is his background?" Lyu Ying frowned slightly.
Xiao Xiao saw her grandmother frown slightly. Her heart skipped a beat. She did not want Lyu Ying to oppose her being with Chen Tianming. She hurriedly said, "Grandma, he does not have any background, but he is a good person."
"Silly child, what's the use of being a good person? You need to be worthy of him." Lyu Ying's concept of the family was very important. Moreover, there were some feudal traditions that emphasized matching families.
When Xiao Xiao heard that, she became anxious and coquettishly said, "Grandmother, why are you still thinking of the same thing? Now you are in a free love relationship."
"Child, you just understood love. You don't even know what love is. Furthermore, you haven't even done anything yet and you are already helping the person you love to deal with grandma?" Lyu Ying saw Xiao Xiao's anxious look and found it funny as she said.
Xiao Xiao heard Lyu Ying's words and did not know how to reply and could only be anxious.
Lyu Ying saw Xiao Xiao's flustered look and smiled as she said, "Silly child, let grandma take a look at this jade pendant. To be able to give out such an expensive jade pendant so generously. Looks like your sweetheart loves you very much. And looking at this jade pendant, it seemed to belong to an antique category. Your sweetheart's background isn't that simple either."
Xiao Xiao heard Lyu Ying's words and immediately heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. She was most afraid that her grandmother would oppose her being together with Chen Tianming. She hurriedly took off the jade pendant from her neck and handed it to Lyu Ying.
The instant Lyu Ying received the jade pendant, she was stunned. When the jade pendant touched her, a clear and cold qi flowed into her body. It was as if the foul qi in her body was instantly discharged from her body and her entire body felt comfortable.
Lyu Ying stared blankly at the jade pendant in her hand. Xiao Xiao was able to carry such a jade pendant around with her, how could she possibly fall sick? This kind of feeling could only be felt from the mysterious object that her big brother was carrying on his body. But that object was the family heirloom treasure, and it was not passed down to a daughter!
Xiao Xiao looked at Lyu Ying's stunned look and secretly laughed. Thinking back to the time when Chen Tianming brought her the jade pendant, she also felt that this jade pendant was different from the others. But Xiao Xiao did not think that her grandmother who had always been experienced and knowledgeable would also be surprised. In her impression, her grandmother had always been a strong woman. She had always been calm and composed. Even some big shots in the business world could not help but give her a thumbs up and praise when they saw her.
After a while, Lyu Ying recovered from her thoughts. She looked at Xiao Xiao seriously and said, "Xiao Xiao, seriously tell grandma. Is this jade pendant really given to you by your classmate?"
This was also the first time Xiao Xiao saw her grandma so serious. She could not help but nod her head.
Lyu Ying continued to ask, "Can you tell grandma what is your classmate's name?" Lyu Ying's voice trembled slightly. She seemed a little nervous and also a little hopeful.
Looking at Lyu Ying's slightly nervous face, although Xiao Xiao was very curious in her heart, she did not ask much and directly replied, "Chen Tianming."
When she heard this name, Lyu Ying immediately felt suffocated and muttered: "As expected, as expected..."
Xiao Xiao did not know what her grandmother said. "As expected." What exactly was she referring to? It was just that Lyu Ying's performance just now had given her too many surprises.
After a while, Lyu Ying sighed and put the jade on Xiao Xiao's neck. She looked at Xiao Xiao seriously and said, "Xiao Xiao, this jade pendant is very important. Don't take it out to show to others. Grandmother has something to do and left first. Grandmother will come to see you in two days."
After Lyu Ying left, Xiao Xiao was still sitting quietly on the hammock looking at the scenery outside the window. She kept playing with the jade pendant on her chest but her thoughts were no longer on Chen Tianming. Most of them were thinking about what Lyu Ying had said before she left.
"This jade pendant is very important. What is the importance of it?" Xiao Xiao looked down at the jade pendant on her chest and guessed what her grandmother had said.
