Chapter 19: I Finally Found You
The night grew darker.
Li Mingshen was making a call, feeling bored, with an irritated tone, "I'm not going tonight, that damn woman pestered me all day... Damn it, who knew she would get pregnant, good thing I took care of it! Hey—wait, did you see the photo I sent you? Is it the legendary Black Jade, the kind that's priceless?"
The light was dim, and the pitch-black ancient jade threaded on the red silk rope lay quietly on the tea table. In the murky light, a few wisps of ominous black mist slowly seeped out of the ancient jade, becoming denser...
After finishing the call, Li Mingshen tossed his phone aside with a lack of interest, catching a glimpse of the ancient jade on the table—
Wait, why did the color fade?
He suddenly sat up, picked up the ancient jade, and rubbed it a few times; his fingers didn't turn black, but the jade's color indeed faded.
"Damn it! Could it be dyed? That little girl—"
He cursed, a vision of a sweet and delicately pretty girl with short hair at her ears floated in his mind.
Such an innocent look, yet a liar.
