Chapter 129 - 124: The Female Supporting Character of Spiritual Spring Space
"Ye Zi, your Jade Pendant looks pretty nice, did you buy it on Antique Street?" Lian Lan tentatively asked. The Jade Pendant was in the shape of a leaf, with a transparent and emerald green throughout, obviously not cheap by the looks of it. This thought made Lian Lan unable to suppress her rising jealousy. Speaking of the four girls in their dorm, her family was the poorest.
Liu Qingqing hails from Coal Province, her family runs mining businesses, known for their flashy wealth. Cao Lu’s parents are both university professors, with her father serving as a technical adviser for a certain group, so they’re not short of money either. Even Ye Qiu, whose parents are small-time merchants, has rooted their business in a renowned tourist city that is bustling with customers every day.
But what about her? Her parents, ostensibly civil servants, held positions without connections, in clean but powerless government offices. While they weren’t lacking money for living expenses over the years, they certainly weren’t well-off enough to spend frivolously. For instance, they would never buy her a Jade Pendant like the one Ye Qiu wore around her neck.
"You mean this Jade Pendant?" Ye Qiu replied in a nonchalant tone, maintaining her composure in the face of Lian Lan’s expectant yet tense expression, "It was given to me by my grandfather."
Having received her answer, Lian Lan looked down, deep in thought. The more she contemplated, the more suspicious she became. It seemed like in novels, the so-called ’golden fingers’ were either accidentally bought in Antique Street or inherited as a family heirloom. Could it be that Ye Qiu’s extraordinary past life was because of this Jade Pendant? Perhaps, there was indeed a legendary space inside, one that could not only make one more beautiful and intelligent but also ensure health and longevity.
That’s right, Ye Qiu clearly had a younger brother who had been in poor health since childhood, yet until her rebirth, she had never heard of any misfortune befalling him. Could it be that Ye Qiu really had some miraculous encounter?
The more Lian Lan reminisced about her previous life, the more she felt Ye Qiu’s uniqueness, and she attributed all these anomalies to the Jade Pendant. She was determined to find an opportunity to test it.
"What’s wrong? Is there something else?" Seeing Lian Lan’s gaze unconsciously rest on her neck again, Ye Qiu deliberately looked at her with feigned puzzlement.
