Never thought...

Rong Wanjing frowned, put the brocade box into her sleeve, and secretly decided that after the matter was resolved, she would personally visit the eminent monk and retrieve the jade pendant left by her mother!

The next morning, Xiao Huaijin left Beijing early to run errands.

Rong Wanjing sat on the bed and closed her eyes to rest. Suddenly she heard noise coming from the yard, as if something was going on.

She slowly opened her eyes, frowned in confusion, put on her clothes and got out of bed, and stepped out of the bedroom.

As soon as I stepped out of the dormitory, I bumped into a woman. The woman was holding a feather duster and scolded angrily: "Where did you come from, a wild girl, how dare you bump into me! You are so tired!"

Before she finished speaking, she raised the feather duster and whipped Rong Wanjing hard.

Rong Wanjing's pupils shrank suddenly, and she avoided reflexively. The feather duster brushed past her ear and almost hit the wall behind her.

Rong Wanjing's heartbeat accelerated violently, and sweat dripped down her back.

She stared at the owner of the feather duster in shock, and her tone was cold and bitter: "Mother Zhang, who allowed you to break into my room?!"

Mrs. Zhang is the old nanny who serves Rong Wanjing's mother. She often bullies her servants because of her age and seniority, so the servants in the mansion are in awe of her.

Mrs. Zhang glanced at Rong Wanjing and said arrogantly, "I am Rong Xiang's nanny, and I have been ordered to take care of the young lady."

Rong Wanjing sneered, "Since you are taking care of me, you should abide by the rules! I was taking a bath, and you suddenly barged in, what kind of situation did you put me in?!"

"I just saw that the lady's room was too clean, so I just wanted to help her clean it." Ms. Zhang said plausibly, "Besides, the lady doesn't need anyone else to take care of her when she takes a bath."

"That's my boudoir! Aunt Zhang, I'm solemnly warning you now - get out of here right now! Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Rong Wanjing's pretty face was ashen and she scolded sternly.

"Hey, Miss, are you threatening me?" Ms. Zhang curled her lips and straightened her chest without any fear, "If you have any ability, just use it, I want to see what you can do to me, Miss!"

Rong Wanjing was so angry that she suddenly pulled out the hairpin and tried to stab Mrs. Zhang!

Mrs. Zhang was so frightened that she stiffened, but still refused to take a step back.

Rong Wanjing was about to plunge hard when a melodious and melodious piano sound suddenly sounded in her mind, instantly soothing her irritable mind.

She held the silver hairpin and was stunned for a moment, then put away the sharp tip.

At this time, the sound of the piano gradually stopped, Rong Wanjing came back to her senses, turned to look out the window, and then shouted to the door: "Lu Qi! Come in!"

"Hey, miss." Lu Qi opened the door and entered.

She walked up to Rong Wanjing and asked in a low voice: "Miss, you are calling your servant, but you are not feeling well?"

"I want to ask you, have you ever carried the jade pendant my mother gave me back then?"

Lu Qi was slightly surprised, "Miss, didn't you lose your jade pendant?"

Rong Wanjing shook her head, "I also hope I lost it. After all... that jade pendant is special to me."

Lu Qi nodded, took out the jade pendant around her neck, and handed it to Rong Wanjing, "This is what the lady gave to the slave for safekeeping before she died."

Rong Wanjing stared for a moment, confirming that the jade pendant was not damaged, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you." She said softly, put the jade pendant away, and told Lu Qi: "Don't move the jade pendant, and remember not to give it to others casually, do you understand?"

Lu Qi hurriedly said: "I saved it from you."
