Chapter 141: It will be a long time for your affairs to be settled.

Go back to the pawn shop.

Rong Ruo was led to Xiao Wu's office. When someone came in, Xiao Wu put away the folding fan and stood up with a smile, "Hello, Miss Rong."

Rong Ruo was a little surprised when she saw the person. She didn't expect it to be him.

"Hello, Boss Xiao."

Rongruo sat down behind the solid wood tea table, and Xiao Wu handed over the brewed West Lake Longjing.

"Miss Rong, do you remember? We just met."

When Xiao Wu called, Rong Ruo thought it was a scam call. Later, he sent a photo of the jade pendant, and she agreed to come over.

At first, she thought it was the jade pendant that someone was interested in, but now it seems that it shouldn't be the case.

"Remember."

After Rong Ruo replied, he didn't rush to ask about the situation. He just sat there quietly, waiting for the other party to speak first.

Xiao Wu looked at her for a while and smiled, "Miss Rong, aren't you curious why I asked you to come over?"

The surveillance of the pawn shop was recently repaired, and the video of Rong Ruo coming to pawn was sent to his mobile phone a few days ago. Here, because I didn’t leave any contact information, the pawn shop has been looking for someone.

Coincidentally, he met someone today.

"Boss Xiao, please tell me directly." Rong Ruo nodded politely.

In their line of work, they like to interact with smart people.

"I'm here to see Miss Rong. I just want to ask you, does this jade pendant belong to Miss Rong?"

Rong Ruo frowned slightly, "Boss Xiao, what do you mean?"

Knowing that there might be a misunderstanding, Xiao Wu immediately explained, "Miss Rong , don’t get me wrong, I don’t mean anything else. This piece of jade is a pair of jade, which was divided into two pieces. Now the other piece is in the hands of a customer of mine. My customer once gave the other half of this piece of jade as a gift. I gave it to the one I love, so..."

At this point, Rongruo couldn't help but understand that the original owner of the jade pendant came looking for the jade pendant, but why was the jade pendant that the original owner gave to the person he loved in her mother's hands?

Perhaps her mother took the photo by chance, or it may have passed through several hands to her, or perhaps her mother and this guest were old acquaintances.

"The jade is not mine, it was left by my mother. As for the origin of the jade pendant, I don't know much about

it." "Then can Xiao please see your mother?"

"She has passed away." Rong Ruo said calmly.

Hearing this, Xiao Wu felt a little apologetic, "Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't know..."

"It's okay, Boss Xiao, do you have anything else to ask?" Rong Ruo looked at Yu on the table and said, "You said Is that customer planning to buy this piece of jade?"

Xiao Wu nodded, but then shook his head and said, "I will keep the jade for Miss Rong until Miss Rong comes to redeem it."

"Thank you, Boss Xiao. I will come and redeem it as soon as possible."

After Rongruo left, a figure sat behind the screen of Shanshui White Crane, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, gently twisting them one by one.

Outside, Xiao Wu sent Rongruo away, then came in and went directly behind the screen.

"The lady just said that the jade pendant is not hers, but her mother's. Should I send someone to check her mother?" A

middle-aged man in a Chinese tunic suit faced the window. His face could not be seen clearly, but his posture was majestic and vigorous. loose.

"She... passed away?" The man said one word, twisting a Buddhist bead, his voice was a little ethereal.

The man in front of him, the head of the Huo family in the capital, spent his whole life looking for his childhood sweetheart and the child he only knew existed many years later.

But until now, he didn't know where his lover and children were.

"I want to check, but I want to go and see for myself."

...

When Rongruo returned home, Shen Heting called, and Mrs. Shen asked them to go back for dinner in the evening.

Later, Shen Heting came to pick her up.

Because of her illness, she asked for leave from the restaurant so she didn't have to play the piano. After she came back, she took a nap and her face looked better than at noon.

When she came down from upstairs, Shen Heting happened to receive the investigation results from Assistant Yang.

After reading the content, Shen Heting's face suddenly darkened.

She really was hiding something from him!

Judging from the results of the investigation, Rongruo knew people from the Jiang family. Not only did she know them, but she also had some connections with the young master of the Jiang family who was about to succeed them.

Although the investigation was not exhaustive, what I saw alone was enough to make people think a lot.

In an instant, unspeakable complex emotions lingered in my heart, surging violently, then settling slowly, and finally calmed down.

After reading it, he responded to the text message.

——Keep checking.

After Rong Ruo got in the car, she obviously felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in the car.

But she didn't think much about it, after all, the two of them had some unpleasant troubles in the afternoon.

In addition, Shen Heting is quite cold when he doesn't speak.

Rongruo fastened her seat belt, turned her head to look at the man, and saw that the man was also looking at her.

My heart skipped a beat.

The hand holding the seat belt unconsciously exerted force.

"Mr. Shen, what's wrong?"

Shen Heting did not speak, but unbuckled his seat belt and leaned close to her.

The elegant woody fragrance hit her, and in an instant, a stern face approached, and Rongruo leaned back slightly.

"It's nothing, I just suddenly wanted to take a good look at you."

That's what he said, but the man's eyes were deep and cold, making people unable to look at him to the end and making him panic.

The man looked at Rongruo, stretched out his hand, and touched her cheek.

It was obviously a normal action between lovers, but there was no trace of warmth in the man's eyes.

Rongruo pursed her lips, took Shen Heting's hand, and pressed her cheek against his palm, "Mr. Shen, is there something on your mind?"

"You are smart, how did you tell?"

The man's palm was wide and warm, Her cheeks fell upward, and there was still some free space, "a woman's sixth sense."

That face was pure and charming, and when she stared at it quietly, it was full of amorous feelings and seduced people without knowing it.

"Then tell me what's on my mind?"

Rong Ruo was stumped. It was said that women have a deep heart, and so did men.

Rong Ruo frowned and was analyzing it carefully, but in fact she found that she didn't know much about Shen Heting.

We only know that his name is Shen Heting, that he has a grandmother and a little niece, and that he is the heir to the Shen Group.

Seeing the woman did not speak, Shen Heting twitched the corner of his mouth, "Have you guessed it?"

Rong Ruo shook her head honestly, "No."

She moved , the delicate skin touches the palm, soft and slightly itchy, which can disturb people's hearts.

Shen Heting's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and his eyes dimmed. The woman pressed against his palm was like a docile and well-behaved kitten. She looked like she was trying to please someone. Inexplicably, he felt a little softer. .

Maybe she didn't say it because she had her own considerations. Thinking of this, Shen Heting became a little less depressed.

He hooked the person with his big palm, lowered his head, and pressed his lips.

The car was parked on the side of the road, and people were coming and going, but he just hugged her and kissed her hard.

There was already a bit of emotion, but when the kiss reached the back, he felt a little out of control. When he let go of the woman, his whole body became uncomfortably tight.

"I'll take care of you when I get back."

Rong Ruo was so shy after all. When he pressed her down for a kiss, she kept pushing him out. They were right on the roadside. If he made any more noise, people would be watching.

And his words made her blush a little bit more.

...

back to the old house.

When Mrs. Shen saw the two of them coming back hand in hand, her eyes were full of joy and she was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear. "Aunt Rong, they are back. Go upstairs and call Sirou to prepare for dinner."

"Okay, Old Madam. "

Mrs. Shen hasn't seen Rongruo for a while since she was misunderstood to be pregnant last time. She wanted to see him every day, but Shen Heting didn't allow it. As a last resort, she had to ask him to bring him back for dinner.

"Ruoruo, grandma hasn't seen you for a while. Why have you lost so much weight and your complexion is not that good? Did Heting bully you?"

Rongruo immediately expressed her position, "No, grandma, I had a cold a few days ago and my appetite was... It's not good, so I lost some weight. Mr. Shen is very kind to me."

"Don't speak for him. He is my grandson. I don't know him yet."

Not long after, Shen Shenrou came down from upstairs and saw him. Rongruo hugged the person and started to chatter.

Shen Heting answered the phone and came in. Shen Shenrou was hugging Rongruo, and the two were very affectionate.

He frowned, stepped forward, and pulled the person to his side, "Speak properly."

"..." Shen Sirou clicked her tongue, how stingy!

At the dinner table, Mrs. Shen went straight to the point, "I asked you to come back for dinner today. Grandma has something to tell you. Since you two are here, I will tell you directly.

I am old and have many basic diseases. I don’t know how many years I can live, and I don’t have any big wishes. I just want to see you get married and have children.

You and Ruoruo have been together for almost half a year, and the Chinese New Year is about to come. How long has it been since you settled your affairs? "

Hearing this, Rongruo, who was drinking soup, choked hard.

After recovering, she raised her head and glanced at Shen Heting secretly.

It was not her turn to answer this question, Shen Heting had the right to answer it. She didn't know what he would answer, but in her heart, she felt some unrealistic expectations.

After a moment, Shen Heting looked at her and whispered, "Grandma..."
