rich husband's young wife

Chapter 65 The Broken Jade Bracelet

Bai Jia noticed Wu Lili's strange look, but Wu Lili immediately turned around and went back to sit down. There was no more movement, and she could only look out the window as if she didn't notice it, but the name floated in her mind: Ellen. i^

Sister Wu is like this, is it because of this name?

She guessed, but had no answer to check.

The car was speeding on the highway, he held her in his arms, leaned his head on her shoulder, and slowly closed his eyes as if he was extremely sleepy.

It was only when Bai Jia realized that there was a steady breathing sound in his ears that he realized that Teng Ye had fallen asleep, and in the front passenger seat, Sister Wu was also too quiet.

This kind of tranquility made her carefully examine the monstrously handsome face beside her: the eyebrows were as thick and straight as a sword, the nose was as tall and straight as a mountain, and the lips were as gentle as a bewilderment...

"Didi..." The phone rang suddenly, breaking her appreciation and waking up Teng Ye.

He opened his eyes impatiently, rubbed his temples, like a child who hasn't slept enough, while Bai Jia hastily grabbed out his phone and pressed the answer button: "Hello!"

"Bai Jia, I have something to ask you!" Wang Xin's loud voice, even if the hands-free was not turned on, everyone in the car could hear: "Do you remember who among our performers is wearing a red retro tutu dress?" ah!"

"Red?" Bai Jia was taken aback: "It's not that color!"

"you sure?"

Bai Jia recalled everyone's outfits, and said affirmatively: "I'm sure there are no red ones. What's wrong?"

"What else? We didn't have any red clothes in the performance, but many students said that they saw a tall woman in a red skirt and a blue wig in the auditorium! My God, we performed It’s Cinderella, not Sailor Moon, where did the blue wig come from? I told the police that there was absolutely no, but the police said I was lying and that the man was giving out candies in the auditorium? Who do you think this is? Here we come!"

"Okay, don't be so angry. Anyway, I don't remember such a person. Besides, we were all performing on the stage at the time. If we were focused on acting, who would notice what was on the audience seats?"

"That's right, hey, I don't want to! I'll hang up first!" Wang Xin hung up the phone after finishing speaking, and Bai Jia didn't even have a chance to say goodbye.

After putting away the phone, Teng Ye took her into his arms: "What happened?"

Bai Jia blinked: "During the performance last night, someone died there. I thought it was a sudden illness, but this morning they said it was murder, so the police came to investigate." She said and looked up at him: "Make it for me today. The investigator was an old acquaintance."

"Zhao Pengfei?" The corners of Teng Ye's mouth rose slightly.

"That's right, he has become the team leader." Bai Jia said rubbing his fingers: "Seeing that I didn't ask about the auditorium, I just asked when was the last time I saw you. I told him that two weeks ago, he Very dissatisfied. i^”

Teng Ye blinked: "He is not satisfied? Heh, do I need to say hello to him when I go to Europe to discuss a business?" He said, reaching out to stroke Bai Jia's hair: "Did he say anything to you?"

Bai Jia thought of the phrase ruining life, but she couldn't say it out. She shook her head and said softly, "It's nothing."

Teng Ye put his lips on her forehead: "Don't think about it, he won't bother you for long."

Bai Jia nodded.

She was not afraid that Zhao Pengfei would bother her, she just wanted to tell Teng Ye what he asked her. After all, she knew in her heart that Teng Ye was in city a last night.

……

The car stopped in front of a courtyard that looked like an ancient building. After Teng Ye led Bai Jia out of the car, Wu Lili followed them out of the car with a brocade box in her arms.

"Young Master Teng, you are here!" An old man who looked fifty years away walked up quickly: "The old man has asked you three times!"

Teng Ye smiled gracefully: "Housekeeper He was joking, the old man didn't ask me, but this!" He pointed to the brocade box in Wu Lili's hand, the old man chuckled, and leaned over to invite him, so Teng Ye took Bai Jia and Wu Lili Follow him into the courtyard.

It's October now, and the autumn wind is indispensable in the autumn. Although it is not strong enough to take away the fallen leaves, it also makes a few touches of blue and yellow float on the bluestone ground.

She looked at the stone tables, stone benches, wooden eaves and tiles along the way, and felt that this tranquility gave people an elegant and intoxicating feeling like a paradise.

She wanted to stop and appreciate everything around her, because the exquisite wood carvings on the window rails were so charming, and the curved bridge pavilions along the way were so charming.

But she is not qualified, she is just a companion by his side.

Soon, they entered a room similar to a hall, and saw an old man in a gray Tang suit who looked about seventy years old, holding a thick writing brush and dancing around in front of the huge table in the middle of the hall.

The old butler He who was leading the way looked at Teng Ye with apologetic eyes. Teng Ye smiled and blinked, and everyone stood here silently, waiting for the old man to swipe his pen and ink until he finished drawing the picture.

"Master, Young Master Teng is here!" At this moment, Butler He stepped forward to greet him, and the old man raised his head, and when he saw Teng Ye, he lowered his face: "You are really good, you have hanged me for three times." God's appetite, if I didn't rely on painting to meditate, I'm afraid I'd be lying in the hospital in a hurry right now!"

"You are in good health! Do you want to lie down? At least 30 years later!" Teng Ye approached with a smile.

Seeing this, Wu Lili immediately took the brocade box in her hand.

"This is what I promised you to grow old!" Teng Ye opened the brocade box and rushed towards the old man. Bai Jia, who was standing aside, could vaguely see that it was a jade bracelet.

The old man's eyes widened, and then he walked around the table excitedly and came to the brocade box.

With trembling hands, he slowly touched the bracelet in the box, as if he saw a rare treasure.

Looking at his actions, Bai Jia guessed that it must be a rare item from which dynasty. She even wondered if the jade bracelet was worn by Wu Zetian. At this time, the old man picked up the bracelet. After taking it, Bai Jia found out , this is a jade bracelet broken in two.

Is a broken bracelet worth anything?

Bai Jia was a little puzzled.

But at this moment, Butler He came to the front with a magnifying glass, as if to let the old man appreciate it, but the old man shook his head, then looked at Teng Ye, his voice choked up a little: "Yes, it is it, it is it, I know it! That's right!"

Teng Ye smiled lightly: "If you confirm it, then I will count it as a success."

The old man nodded, put the bracelet back carefully, and then looked at the person beside him: "Old He, put it away carefully."

Steward He took it in response, and carefully carried it inside, while the old man grabbed Teng Ye's hand: "It's been ten years, and you finally found it for me. Tell me, what exactly do you want?"

Teng Ye shook his head: "I haven't thought about it."

The old man was taken aback for a moment, and then he laughed loudly: "Don't be silly, even if you want all my belongings, I will give it to you."

"I know you will, but I'm not short of money." Teng Ye said softly: "I just want to finish this matter and give my partner an explanation." In front of Bai Jia, she embraced her: "Actually, I'm here today just to attend the dinner party you called!"

The old man laughed when he heard the words, and there was a touch of approval in his eyes: "Okay, then I wish you and your girlfriend to have a good time tonight..." The old man's words stopped there, and his eyes were fixed on Bai Jia. , as if seeing a treasure, and then asked Bai Jia: "Girl, what's your name?"

Bai Jia felt that the old man's eyes were a bit strange, so she leaned nervously towards Teng Ye, her voice soft: "I, my surname is Bai, and my name is Bai Jia."

The old man's eyes dimmed a bit.

"Why did the old man suddenly become interested in my female companion?" Teng Ye looked at the old man's smile and said softly: "You always ignore who I bring here."

The old man chuckled when he heard the words: "Of course I don't care, the ones are different every time I come here, how many pictures can I remember at my age? Just don't look at it, don't remember!" He glanced at Bai Jia again as he spoke, and then turned Nodding: "How old are you?"

Bai Jia pursed her lower lip: "Eighteen."

The old man blinked and smiled faintly at Bai Jia: "My granddaughter will be eighteen if..."

"Old man, it's almost time. Do you think it's time to pass?" Butler He came out from the inside at this time and reminded him. The old man nodded immediately: "Yes, it's time to pass!"

Teng Ye immediately pulled Bai Jia's arm: "Then let's go to the venue over the dinner party first, see you later!"

"Okay!" The old man agreed, and suddenly said loudly: "I owe you a favor, if anything happens to you, come to me!"

"Okay!" Teng Ye politely led Bai Jia out of the room. After they left, the old man turned to look at Butler He: "That child looks like Ah Jin when he was young. I thought my Ah Jin came back."

Hearing the words, Butler He hurried up and followed the old man's back: "Old man, don't worry, Miss has passed away for many years, the past is all in the past."

The old man nodded and walked towards the inside: "Yes, Ah Jin is gone, and even Guan'er is gone, I was confused, let's go, change clothes!"

……

"Mr. Dong is a very charismatic person." As soon as Teng Ye took Bai Jia back to the car, he said softly: "When he was young, he was a legend, and his family was even more famous. The Golden Family."

Bai Jia tilted her head: "He makes gold?"

Teng Ye shook his head: "No, the scholarly family is a hermit family passed down from the older generation. Not only is the family rich and successful, but also has strong personal connections. I can become a person in the business world without relying on my parents before the age of 30. Thanks to him for helping me a lot.”

"Oh, so that's the case." Bai Jia nodded: "Then he must appreciate you very much."

Teng Ye blinked: "He asked you like that just now, you don't have to pay too much attention, his precious daughter died in a car accident many years ago, the jade bracelet just now was her daughter's lost relic, I helped him find it from abroad Yes. He originally had a son, but it was a pity that he died in an air crash a year ago. Now that he is old and alone, he naturally lives in the old memory. According to what he just said, I am afraid it is Seeing you reminds me of his granddaughter who died young!"

Bai Jia heard the words and sighed lightly: "The old man is so pitiful!"

Wu Lili turned her head at this time and said: "Poor? This is the only different evaluation of Mr. Dong I have ever heard! You must know that when people talk about him, they respect him, and some even talk about him with an iron fist. As for being pitiful, you are No." .1!"

Bai Jia blinked: "I can think that he is very powerful, and I also know that he is very rich, but what else does he have besides money now? He is not happy at all!"

Wu Lili blinked when she heard the words, and turned around, while Teng Ye reached out and stroked her hair: "Then, are you happy?"

Bai Jia paused, then smiled at Teng Ye: "My life belongs to you. If you want me to be happy, I will be happy. If you want me to be sad, I will be sad!"

A gleam flashed in Teng Ye's eyes, and then he hugged her tightly into his arms: "Maybe both, I will give you both."
