Zhi Wan rested her cheek in her hand, having stared at the Jade Pendant on the table for a long time.
She couldn't understand why her cousin would give her something so valuable.
'Just for the sake of reciprocity?'
'But this exchange isn't equal at all.'
Besides, her cousin had already given her a silver note this morning.
"Miss, that Jade Pendant is so beautiful," Shuang'er exclaimed as she came in and saw it on the table.
Zhi Wan snapped out of her daze and clasped the Jade Pendant in her hand.
Her cousin's Jade Pendant was carved from the finest white nephrite jade. Its texture was delicate, its appearance gentle and pure. An exquisite carving of a bamboo pattern adorned its surface. It would be no exaggeration to call it priceless.
"This is my cousin's Jade Pendant," she explained in a low voice.
"So it belongs to the Princely Heir. No wonder I found it familiar." Shuang'er nodded. "But why would the Princely Heir give you his personal Jade Pendant?"
