Chapter 724 - 710: Cub Parents
"Right, about those items, I’ve already spoken with the higher-ups," Yan Mo whispered to Xia Yue about the situation. "They’re preparing a place these days, and once we wrap up the resort area work, we should make a trip over and let them start researching some of the items. As for that big one, we’ll have to wait. We can’t find a hidden yet spacious spot to store it, so they’ll have to build a place first."
"Sure, no problem," Xia Yue nodded her approval. Naturally, she agreed with this course of action, considering those items did nothing but gather dust at her place, like long-forgotten trinkets in a chest.
Watching Xia Yue, Yan Mo wondered internally how she could be so selfless. He couldn’t believe she was unaware of the value of those items. Just one of them could bring her great wealth and status, perhaps even more than the Xia Family had provided her.
But her first thought was to hand them over, without asking for any conditions. Even he couldn’t manage such a feat.
"Do you want anything, or is there anything else you need? I can talk to the higher-ups. As long as it doesn’t harm the nation or break the law, we’ll do our best to help you achieve it," Yan Mo asked Xia Yue, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
Xia Yue stopped reaching for food with her chopsticks and looked at him with a puzzled expression. Then her face lit up with excitement and anticipation as she actually had a request. "I want golden jewelry, preferably made like ancient hairpins and clasps, the more exquisite, the better.
I like these sparkly things now. I don’t wear them but want to collect them; just looking at them makes me happy."
"I’ve heard the Dragon Clan has a thing for shiny objects. Maybe awakening my dragon bloodline has influenced me a bit.
"Can you get these for me?"
After speaking, Xia Yue asked hesitantly, worried it would be too much trouble.
