Xia Yanxi's long and curly eyelashes fluttered, and she looked at her innocently.

Ji Beimu and her looked at each other for a few times, feeling a little itchy as if being scratched by a kitten's tender paws a few times.

However, when he saw the jade pendant in her palm, he still felt angry.

"I don't know." The man let go of her hand, went back to the desk and sat down.

"Ah?" Xia Yanxi lowered her eyes in disappointment, "If you don't even know, who should I ask?"

Ji Beimu flipped through the files on the desktop, as if he didn't pay attention to her at all.

The girl hesitated for a while, and finally decided to leave.

No matter whether Ji Beimu really didn't know or pretended not to know, since he had already said so, no matter how hard she tried, she would definitely not be able to get an answer.

Xia Yanxi saw that Ji Beimu was handling the work meticulously, and didn't want to affect him, so she had to walk out quietly.

"You just left?" When she walked to the door of the study, the man's displeased voice came from behind her again.

Xia Yanxi turned her head and looked at him wonderingly, "Since the third master is busy, of course I don't want to bother."

The reason why she left without saying hello was because she didn't want to affect his work.

Ji Beimu frowned deeply, "Since the origin of this jade pendant is very important to you, why don't you fight for it?"

"I...how should I fight for it?" Xia Yanxi scratched her head, very puzzled.

She has already asked all the questions she should ask, and it's not like she doesn't know Ji Beimu's temper.

But now, what does this man mean?
"Come back." Ji Beimu's tall figure leaned on the back of the chair, looking at her deeply.

Xia Yanxi hesitated for a moment, but now that she had to rely on Ji Beimu to tell her the answer, she could only walk back to the man.

Ji Beimu stretched out his hand towards her, and Xia Yanxi obediently placed the fragment of the jade pendant in his palm.

When she was about to withdraw her hand, her round fingertips unconsciously slid across his warm palm.

The slight sense of touch seemed to pass through Ji Beimu's heart like an electric current.

The man raised his eyebrows, "I don't know the origin of this jade pendant, but if I come forward, there must be a way to find it."

Xia Yanxi was aware of Ji Beimu's abilities, that's why she came back to look for him.

Hearing his words, her eyes lit up immediately, "Third Master! Thank you!"

"You don't have to rush to thank, because I haven't planned to help you yet." Ji Beimu said casually while playing with the piece of jade pendant.

Xia Yanxi frowned in embarrassment, "Is the third master still angry because I brought your aunt into the study? I admit that I did something wrong, but..."

"What I want to hear now is not those explanations." Ji Beimu's long and narrow eyes were full of emotions she couldn't see clearly, "but I'm a businessman, and I don't do business at a loss."

Hearing his words, the girl rolled her eyes, and immediately said flatteringly: "Third Master, I will exchange the tens of millions of gold and diamonds that I got at Qi's house yesterday, do you think it's okay?"

After she finished speaking, she had a painful expression on her face.

She could have sold the gold and diamonds and used the money to make a big deal.

But now to ask Ji Beimu to help, it seems that she can only get rid of these things first, so as to obtain the information she wants to know.

But when she thought of using this method to let Ji Beimu find the information she wanted, Xia Yanxi quickly adjusted her mood.

Just when she thought her reluctance to part with her could make Ji Beimu agree, the man's thin lips raised a sarcastic smile, "Do you think I'm short of money?"

Xia Yanxi was taken aback, and after realizing it, she felt annoyed.

Yes!

Although 1000 million is already a huge sum of money for her now, but for Ji Beimu's family property, it is simply a drop in the bucket.

The girl's brows immediately frowned deeper. In her opinion, this was her only bargaining chip.

If she wanted more money, she couldn't afford it.

Just when the atmosphere became stiff, the man stood up, with deep meaning in his narrow eyes, "I seem to have taught you the way women repay men last night."

Upon hearing this, Xia Yanxi immediately thought of the sudden kiss he had last night.

Could it be that Ji Beimu wants to... again?
She looked up at him in disbelief, and saw the seriousness on the man's handsome face, as if he was not joking.

Xia Yanxi pursed her lips, her expression changed again and again.

Could it be that the value of her kiss actually exceeded 1000 million?

"Forget it." Three seconds later, Ji Beimu's voice became indifferent, as if she had missed this opportunity herself.

The man put the pieces of the jade pendant on the table, with a ruthless expression on his face, "You can leave now."

Xia Yanxi took a deep look at him.

But this man's mind has always been difficult to guess, and now she doesn't know whether what Ji Beimu said is true or not.

While she was hesitating, Ji Beimu had already walked around the study and said loudly, "Uncle Yan, see off the guests."

This means, really want to drive her away? !

Xia Yanxi felt anxious for a while, seeing that the man had already walked to the door of the study.

She pursed her lips and made a major decision in her heart.

The girl walked quickly to his side, and when Ji Beimu's big hand was on the doorknob of the study, she tiptoed and kissed him quickly on his thin lips.

Even if it was just a kiss like a superficial kiss, the cool touch on the man's lips still made her feel numb.

Her heart was beating wildly in an instant, like a deer bumping wildly.

Ji Beimu's body stiffened for a moment. Looking down at her, he saw the girl's gaze was moving in a panic, as if she didn't know where to stop.

Seemingly worried that he would go back on his word, Xia Yanxi had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Third Master, I kissed you too, should you keep your promise now and help me investigate this matter?"

Her voice was as thin as a mosquito, with the shyness of a girl.

An imperceptible emotion flashed across Ji Beimu's deep black eyes, he managed to hold his breath, and said lightly, "Come here in a week."

After speaking, he opened the door of the study and walked out.

Xia Yanxi blinked her eyes.

He asked her to come back in a week.

So he promised to help her investigate and let her come back to hear the result in a week?
Thinking of this possibility, Xia Yanxi breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on her face from the bottom of her heart.

It seems that the secret of mother's jade pendant will soon be investigated.

She walked out happily, but just ran into someone.

Sheng Yuping was wearing a simple and elegant dress tonight, her long hair was pulled up, and she looked like a gentle elder.

But the moment she saw Xia Yanxi, there was still a flash of light in her eyes.

Thinking of the unpleasant experience before, Xia Yanxi didn't want to waste words with this person, and planned to bypass her and leave.

Just two steps away, Sheng Yuping's voice came from next to her ear: "What are you looking for Beimu for?"
