Chapter 174: 174 Accompany her to play (second update)

Since the result would be the sa either way, she could only resort to this desperate asure.

After all, the Blood Jade Bracelet was undeniably on this little wretch’s wrist.

This just further confird Chu Jin’s guilt of theft.

Besides, she knew about the rescue of Mo Qianjue and had seen the video at the alley’s entrance, so if it ca down to confrontation, she wasn’t afraid of lacking a justification.

Rather than worrying every day that Mo Qianjue would ask about the Jade Pendant, it’s better to make the matter clear under his view.

That would dispel Mo Qianjue’s doubts about her sooner.

She refused to believe that, with her current intelligence, she couldn’t outwit a useless person!

Even if this useless person had changed a bit, so what?

In the end, he was nothing but a pitiful creature depending on others. Just one unhappy mont from herself, and this creature would be holess.

Moreover, a useless person is a useless person, a stepping stone is a stepping stone!

As long as she was there, she would never let this stepping stone get any chance to turn things around.

The more Zhao Yiling spoke, the more confused Chu Jin beca. It was quite unclear what exactly Zhao Yiling had up her sleeve.

However, one thing was for certain: Zhao Yiling was definitely scheming sothing bad, setting a trap for her.

Since it was pretty boring early in the morning anyway, why not just play along with her... for fun.

Chu Jin arched her brows slightly, "A jade pendant? Cousin, are you still not awake? One mont it’s a bracelet, the next a pendant, when did I ever take your things? If you can’t clarify this, it’s slander, and I will call the police," she said as she took out her phone, facing Zhao Yiling, "Fine, I’ve started recording, you may begin your performance."

Zhao Yiling did not expect Chu Jin to start recording with her mobile phone, her face stiffened for a mont, but she quickly regained her composure, "Stop pretending, little sister. I know you envy

for saving Chairman Mo, but so things cannot be obtained through envy. Please return the jade pendant to . Chairman Mo is visiting our ho today, and I must restore it to the Zhao family."

A jade pendant, saving soone?

Chu Jin latched onto these two crucial descriptors in her mind.

No wonder when she returned ho last night, she found signs that her room had been tampered with. It turned out to be Zhao Yiling’s doing.

But why would she look for a jade pendant in her room?

All this seed to be lacking an explanation.

Chu Jin’s lips curled slightly, growing more curious about what Zhao Yiling would do next. Then she reached into her pocket and pulled out a jade pendant tied with a red string, twirling the string between her fingertips in front of Zhao Yiling.

Under the lighting, the jade pendant was crystal clear, flawless, and glowed softly.

Chu Jin raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes brimming with spring mischief, and the dimples on her cheeks deepened, "Cousin, what you just ntioned couldn’t possibly be this, could it?"

Zhao Yiling’s eyes brightened as she imdiately recognized the quality of the jade, undoubtedly the king of jades, far surpassing the Blood Jade Bracelet.

She hadn’t expected it was indeed this little wretch who had rescued Mo Qianjue.

No! It was she who had saved Mo Qianjue; it was this little wretch who had stolen her credit. Without her, the Blood Jade Bracelet would be hers, and so would this Jade Pendant.

She would be the envy of all in Capital City.

She had occupied these two items for too long, and subconsciously, she already regarded them as her possessions.

No one could take away what belonged to her!

Mo Qianjue also noticed the jade pendant, his pupils constricting. He knew that coming to the Zhao family today would surely bring so gains.

It seed that the truth of the matter would surface soon.

Zhao Yiling stared intently at the jade pendant, "Exactly, that’s the jade pendant. Chairman Mo gave it to

after I saved him by chance last ti. I haven’t found the ti to return it to him and didn’t expect that my little sister would take it. Little sister, I can give you anything, but just not this jade pendant, please return it to ."

Chu Jin’s eyes narrowed slightly, finding Zhao Yiling’s story too similar to her own.

Rescuing people is the sa, and the person saved each received a Jade Pendant.

How coincidental that the Jade Pendants look identical?

The play seems to be getting more and more interesting, Chu Jin’s lips slightly curled, her interest intensifying, her eyes shimring with laughter as she spoke, "Cousin, I’m really sorry, but this Jade Pendant has been passed down in my family for generations. When did it beco your possession? Don’t tell

you can’t find your own Jade Pendant and have set your sights on my treasure?"

Chu Jin said this because she did not want to make a show of her lifesaving deed, as she did not see it as sothing to boast about.

Just for that mysterious ingrate, she almost lost her life. The thought of it still terrified her, and had it not been for the mission, she wouldn’t have bothered to save such trouble.

Another reason was that she wanted to see what exactly Zhao Yiling was up to.

Mo Qianjue, hiding in the shadows, felt a surge of disgust. Chu Jin really dared to claim soone else’s possession as her family heirloom. He could now almost confirm that Zhao Yiling was the one who had saved his life.

The anger in Mo Qianjue’s eyes grew increasingly intense.

At this mont, Zhao Hai, holding tea, returned and gestured for Mo Qianjue to co inside.

But he saw Mo Qianjue gesture for silence and dared not move rashly, his gaze following Mo Qianjue’s line of sight.

Listening to Chu Jin claiming the Jade Pendant as her family heirloom made Zhao Yiling sowhat panicked, for she had never seen the Jade Pendant that Mo Qianjue owned and did not know what it actually looked like.

What if it truly was just a Jade Pendant passed down in that vile girl’s family?

However, things had progressed to this point, and she had no other choice. She had already claid it was that Jade Pendant, and it was too late to retract her words now.

How would she know if she could win without taking the gamble?

With this in mind, Zhao Yiling appeared sadly disappointed and said to Chu Jin with great emotion, "Sister, you’ve truly disappointed . This is clearly mine, how could you claim it as your own!"

Chu Jin smiled faintly, "Yours? Didn’t you just say it belongs to that Mr. Mo? Cousin, it’s such a waste for you not to be an actor; if you were, Fan Shuishui, Zhang Zitai and the like would have to stand aside! And as for the Oscar statuette, it surely belongs to you."

"Sister!" Offended as if she had been insulted, Zhao Yiling exclaid, "Please do not compare

to those vulgar actors who trade their art for fa! That would be a disgrace to , please return the Jade Pendant to

now!"

Zhao Yiling always looked down on people in the entertainnt industry.

In her view, they were nothing more than a bunch of show-offs who only knew how to flaunt themselves in front of others.

Chu Jin’s lips curled slightly, "What’s wrong with being an actor? Actors earn their keep through their talent, unlike so people who covet the belongings of others all day long! Blurring right and wrong—in my eyes, those actors you speak of are ten tis more honorable than you."

"Sister," Thinking of Mo Qianjue still downstairs, Zhao Yiling composed herself, assuming the role of a caring older sister, "It doesn’t matter what you say about , after all, I am still your elder sister, and I can overlook this. But please return the Jade Pendant to ; I need to return it to Mr. Mo in its entirety."

At this point, Zhao Hai’s expression also turned sour.

He had intended to bring Mo Qianjue into the living room to sit down for tea.

While discussing a potential business partnership, he did not expect Mo Qianjue to witness such a farce.

As the saying goes, family disgrace should not be aired in public. Now, he felt he had lost both face and dignity.

This Chu Jin was truly a disappointnt!

Zhao Hai was about to interrupt the conversation between the sisters upstairs.

But he found himself unable to speak, as if soone had sealed his voice, and his feet could not move either.

Upstairs, the conversation between the two continued.

"Cousin, after all is said and done, don’t you just want the Jade Pendant in my hand?" Chu Jin swayed the Jade Pendant in front of Zhao Yiling.

Zhao Yiling, looking at the Jade Pendant swaying before her, had a strong desire to possess it.

Seeing her like this, Chu Jin’s lips curved slightly as she continued, "Honestly, this isn’t even anything special. Had you had a proper conversation with , perhaps I could have given it to you. But you see, I thoroughly detest being falsely accused, so even if I were to throw it away, I wouldn’t give it to you."

With a pitiable look, Zhao Yiling pleaded, "Sister, I beg of you, please return it to . This isn’t mine; I need to return it to Mr. Mo."
