Chapter 470

"Her porcelain vase isn't as shattered as the one we are currently restoring, so why did you say it couldn't be restored after just one look? Is there some reason for that?"

Gu Lao was also a bit curious, "Is there a problem with that porcelain vase?"

He had been thinking just now that there must be some problem.

Shu Xia did not intend to hide it from them, "This porcelain vase indeed has a problem; it is not used for decoration, but to enshrine some Evil Object, in order to achieve some ulterior motives."

The bracelet on Ye Yaoguang's wrist just now also had a problem.

Ye Yaoguang has a sinister heart.

Gu Lao was stunned, "Enshrine an Evil Object?"

He does not know much about this aspect, but Zhong Jiejie does.

And Shu Xia was taught by Zhong Jiejie herself.

Gu Lao trusts Shu Xia.

"No wonder. When I walked in just now, I felt uncomfortable all over, a feeling I couldn't put into words. Once she left, that feeling vanished," Gu Cheng realized in hindsight.

"I had that feeling too. I originally thought it was because I'm getting old and my body wasn't feeling well. I never imagined that in this day and age, there are still people using these messy things to achieve some ulterior motives," Gu Lao said with a sigh.

Human nature, it is just like this.

Despicable and realistic.

"Did Gu Lao touch the porcelain shards just now? If you did, it's best to go wash your hands, and then turn on the air conditioning in this room to change the air," Shu Xia reminded him.

Even now, she seems to be able to smell that extremely uncomfortable scent.

She suddenly thought of Huo Jingyan.

Ye Yaoguang is Huo Jingyan's secretary, and the two can be said to be together every day. With such frequent contact, she will inevitably be affected to some extent.

However, there are many people in the company. Even if Huo Jingyan sees Ye Yaoguang every day, as long as the goal Ye Yaoguang wants to achieve has nothing to do with Huo Jingyan, the influence will be minimal.

——

After Ye Yaoguang left in a fit of anger, she asked friends to introduce several famous restorers.

As a result, after the photos of the shattered porcelain were sent over, the answers received were all that they were powerless to help, as it was too badly shattered.

Even knowing that the price she offered was not low, no one dared to take on the job.

"Why am I so unlucky lately? It's so frustrating! I'm on the verge of stepping into the Huo Family, so why did things go wrong?"

She shouldn't have pestered Huo Jingyan to go wild in the living room this morning.

When they were too carried away, it was she herself who accidentally knocked into the porcelain vase.

When the porcelain vase shattered, she didn't dare to appear too nervous, fearing that Huo Jingyan would notice something.

She touched her still-flat lower abdomen.

The child inside is very well-behaved; even when she and Huo Jingyan were going wild, there was no feeling at all.

If not for the occasional feeling of drowsiness, she would have forgotten she was pregnant.

"Just wait a little longer, the two of us, mother and child, will soon enter the Huo Family's door! No one will become a stumbling block for us. That Jiang Nannan is no match for Mommy at all. Your father will slowly come to know Mommy's good points, and in the future, our family will live together."

Looking at the shattered porcelain vase, it felt as if a layer of haze had covered Ye Yaoguang's heart.

Vaguely, she felt that this meant something.

——

Jiang Nannan had originally planned to stay up late with Sheng An tonight.

But Sheng An's night shoot was suddenly canceled; it seemed the lead actress was injured and went to the hospital.

Then Sheng An rested, and she rested too.

On the way back, she happened to pass by Huo Jingyan's company.

She asked the taxi driver to pull over to the side of the road, then called Huo Jingyan.

At this time, he should be getting off work soon and shouldn't be busy.

As she expected, he answered the phone quickly.

"Nannan."
