After a pause, she added, "Just like my grandmother showed earlier, not giving you New Year's Eve money, anyone with eyes can see it was on purpose."
Shen Chen was stunned, not expecting that she called him out to talk about this matter: "I've already grown up and don't need New Year's Eve money. I am an outsider, and staying at the Ye Mansion is already an imposition. This time, it was my oversight."
He had other places he could go, but for some reason, he just wanted to stay with Ah Zhi to watch the night and celebrate the Spring Festival.
Ye Zhi knew his character; even if he endured grievances, he wouldn't say. She took out a hexagonal jade pendant with a cloud pattern from her bosom, stuffed it into his hand, and said, "This is for you."
The jade pendant was of excellent quality, with a dense, fine, and exquisite texture, incredibly resilient, flawless, as if the entire piece of jade was soaked in water, moist and lustrous.
