Chapter 647: Discovering the Bracelet

These two men, one is Jian Yining, and the other is Sheng Hanyu.

Everything Sheng Hanyu and Shi Youxuan did in the Marsh yesterday was under her surveillance.

That car which mysteriously disappeared was also hidden by people she sent.

Her original intention was to scare them a little, let them suffer some hardship, so they wouldn't come here looking for people again.

However, when Shi Youxuan had a fever in the morning, she sent the car back.

Shi Youxuan, just like Jin Wan'er, is the child of her older sister!

Although Jin Wan'er is the Successor she chose, Shi Youxuan cannot be harmed either.

That child suffered too much hardship when she was young; now, she cannot be allowed to suffer and endure misery again.

Ji Yingjie did not expect that after Shi Youxuan went back, she didn't stay idle at all; she couldn't come herself, so she sent others instead.

And they arrived with quite a grand display.

Aren't men all supposed to be irresponsible?

Why are these two men different?

However, since these two responsible men are the husbands of her two nieces, Ji Yingjie was not that angry.

A subordinate asked: "Clan Leader, should we use some more methods to drive them away?"

She stopped them: "No need, these few people won't discover our secrets; if they want to search, let them search, let them toss and turn as they please."

Noon.

The scorching sun hung brightly in the sky.

The sunlight shining on the body felt as stinging as needle pricks.

This place is very peculiar.

What is peculiar is not just the various incomprehensible phenomena, but also the weather.

The temperature difference between morning and night is too great; at night, it is cold enough to freeze someone to death, and during the day, it can bake someone until they are dizzy!

"Bang!"

The man following Jian Yining suddenly fell backward without any warning.

His eyes were tightly shut, his face was pale, and bean-sized beads of sweat kept popping out on his forehead; it looked like he had heatstroke.

"Aw, Aw!"

Jian Yining hurriedly took out a water canteen, unscrewed it, pinched Aw's chin, and poured some water into his mouth.

"Cough, cough..."

Aw woke up.

He struggled to stand up: "I didn't pay attention to my feet just now and tripped; I'm fine, I can still walk."

He can still walk even in this state?

Although Jian Yining was anxious to find his wife, he could not disregard his brother's life.

"Lie down and don't move."

He had Aw lie down on the reeds.

Then, the few of them used materials at hand, pulling some reeds to tie together a simple sunshade, and let Aw go inside to rest.

Although it was just tying together a simple tent, it exhausted all their strength.

If this continues, it won't work; I'm afraid before we even find anyone, everyone will be baked dizzy!

Jian Yining said: "Let's rest for a while."

The few of them took out the food and water they were carrying and began lunch.

Coming out to look for people is not an outing; the food brought naturally cannot be about taste, what matters is the calories.

Each person had a bag of compressed biscuits, chewing them dry.

There wasn't much water left in the bags, but it didn't matter; those people who ran away left behind many backpacks in the reed marsh, and there was water and food in the backpacks.

The compressed biscuits were truly awful, but they were truly effective.

With a pack of biscuits in the stomach, the lost strength returned.

After lunch, everyone lay in the reed marsh for a short rest; it was quiet all around without a sound, and Jian Yining soon became drowsy!

Suddenly, something flashed in his eyes.

It looked like light reflected off metal.

At first, he didn't pay attention, but this spot of light was very strange, and the shape was very familiar.

He sat up and looked over in the direction of the light; just one glance and he was stunned—his heart was pounding violently!

Jian Yining was ecstatic.

He scrambled up and stumbled forward.

A bracelet was hanging on a reed stalk.

The bracelet swayed gently with the breeze, as if it were greeting him.

He took the bracelet down with trembling hands; there was no mistake, this was the one he had given his wife on Valentine's Day!

The one and only bracelet in the whole world.

Back then, Jin Wan'er had acted spoiled and asked him to customize a bracelet, saying she wanted a unique one to represent that she was one of a kind and different from others.

At the time, he even mocked her, thinking she was being pretentious.

Everyone is unique, and cloning technology had already been proven a failure.

However, he still customized a bracelet according to his wife's request; it was this one!

When she received the gift, his wife was very happy, and her smile was very beautiful and radiant.

From that day on, she wore it on her wrist, not even taking it off when she showered!

Wan'er said this was her most precious possession, that she would wear it for a lifetime and pass it down to future generations as a family heirloom...

Unknowingly.

Jian Yining was already streaming with tears.

"Wan'er, Wan'er, I've come to find you, where are you!" He used all his strength, looking up to the sky and roaring.

"A Ning, A Ning, I'm here." Jin Wan'er threw off the quilt and jumped out of bed, running outside barefoot.

Unfortunately, she was intercepted at the doorway.

"Young Master, you cannot go out."

"Move aside, my husband has come to find me, I heard his voice."

The servant said: "You heard wrong, there is no sound, and no one can possibly find this place."

"Hmph!"

Jin Wan'er said unceremoniously: "Do you think I would believe your nonsense?"

"Be smart and move aside, I guarantee your safety, otherwise when my husband finds this place, I will have you sent to Prison."

Jin Wan'er was a Lüshi, she knew the laws of the whole world, and illegal imprisonment was punishable by jail time.

But the servant did not know that; she only knew she was a person of the Ji Family and only took orders from the Clan Leader!

The person in front of her, although the Young Master, also had to listen to the Clan Leader.

"I am not afraid."

The servant said solemnly: "As long as the Clan Leader tells me to go to jail, I will go; for the sake of the Ji Family, let alone jail, I would even willingly die."

Jin Wan'er:...

This person was mentally ill, no point in talking to her.

"Move aside."

"I will not."

"I want to go out."

"You cannot go out."

Jin Wan'er wanted to push her away, but this person's strength was greater than she had imagined!

She used all her might to push the servant, but the person who looked to be about the same size as her did not move at all.

"Move aside..." Jin Wan'er's voice was laced with a sobbing tone.

Her attitude was not as tough as before, and she pleaded: "I beg you, let me out, my husband is calling for me outside, I heard him say he loves me, he loves me, and I love him too, I want to go tell him how much I love him..."

Jin Wan'er hugged her stomach and squatted on the ground, sobbing.

She looked weak, pitiful, and helpless.

"Stop crying! The women of the Ji Family are not allowed to shed tears for men!"

Jin Wan'er looked up abruptly; Ji Yingjie was standing in front of her. She did not know when the servant had left, nor did she notice when her aunt had arrived.

Anyway, her aunt was standing in front of her now, looking very displeased.

But Jin Wan'er was quite happy; the person in charge had arrived!

Begging her aunt was more effective than begging the servant.

She wiped her face casually with the back of her hand, wiping away the tears: "Okay, Aunt, I promise you, I won't cry."

"Let me out, even just for a little while is fine, I'll just say a word to my husband, tell him I'm safe so he can stop worrying, and then I'll come back, okay?"

"Heh..."

Ji Yingjie sneered: "Wan'er, you are exactly like your mother was back then, you can do anything for a man, even going so far as to deceive the people closest to you."

"You won't come back after you go out, don't take me for a three-year-old child, I know exactly what you are thinking."

Jin Wan'er:...

She had been too anxious.

This excuse was indeed too low-level, it was normal for it to be seen through.

She lowered her head in silence, thinking of a better way.

Before she could think of a good way, her aunt said: "Master Jack's craftsmanship is not bad, the bracelet is made very delicately; you really went to great lengths to leave this place."
