At this moment, the bodyguard beside Shen Xiaoyue arrived at the scene. He immediately rushed forward and knocked down the people surrounding Shen Xiaoyue.

Seeing that Shen Xiaoyue was being protected by someone, and that the other party was obviously a martial artist, all of the relatives were scared out of their wits.

They fled the scene quickly, carrying the things they had looted from the Shen family's old house.

Shen Xiaoyue sat on the ground, emotionally broken, cursing and crying hysterically, tears rolling down her cheeks like beads from a broken string.

She had no way to vent her anger, so she could only throw the items in her hands at the bodyguard beside her.

The bodyguard stood silently by the side, neither dodging nor resisting, allowing Shen Xiaoyue to vent.

Shen Xiaoyue didn't stop her actions until a glass hit the bodyguard's forehead and blood flowed down his cheek.

She stared blankly at the bodyguard's bleeding forehead, and all the grievances and anger in her heart turned into tears at this moment.

She sat there, crying without any image, as if she wanted to release all the pain.

The bodyguard didn't move, but just stood there quietly, waiting for Shen Xiaoyue to cry enough.

After a long time, Shen Xiaoyue finally got tired of crying. She raised her head and saw that the wound on the bodyguard's forehead had already clotted with blood.

Although she still had some anger in her heart, she still felt a little guilty when she saw her bodyguard injured.

She frowned in disdain and said to the bodyguard, "Go and treat the wound quickly."

The bodyguard nodded and turned to go to the bathroom to clean his wound. Just as he was about to leave, Shen Xiaoyue suddenly called him: "What's your name?"

The bodyguard paused, turned around and replied, "Miss, my name is Chen Ying."

Shen Xiaoyue hummed, said nothing more, and turned to go upstairs. Chen Ying looked at Shen Xiaoyue's back as she left, with a hint of complicated emotions in her eyes.

After Xing Nian returned to Mengyuan from Yan's house, fatigue came over her like a tide. She lay on the bed and fell asleep soon after.

It was not until the sun was high in the sky and her stomach was growling with hunger that she woke up from her dream.

Xing Nian rubbed his sleepy eyes and found that the bed beside him had become cold. He must have gone to the company to be busy.

She sat up and her eyes fell on an exquisite box at the bedside. She curiously opened the box and saw a familiar jade pendant inside - it was the jade pendant her mother wore when she was alive.

Xing Nian remembered that when she first met Xing Lang in prison, he mentioned that they sold their mother's jade pendant in exchange for funds. This jade pendant is of great significance to Xing Nian. It is not only her mother's relic, but also a symbol of her longing for her mother.

So, she asked Xing Lang to write down the style of the jade pendant and the place where it was sold, and gave it to Mu Huaichen, hoping that he could help find it back.

I didn't expect to find the jade pendant so quickly, and Xing Nian was filled with gratitude.

She gently stroked the jade pendant, feeling its simple and warm texture. Through the sunlight, she vaguely saw a sun-shaped pattern on the jade pendant.

This jade pendant is something that can prove the mother's identity, but neither Xing Nian nor Mu Huaichen could find out its origin.

Since she couldn't solve the secret of the jade pendant, Xing Nian decided to let nature take its course. She believed that some things could not be forced, and perhaps one day in the future, she would know the origin of the jade pendant.

At this moment, Xing Nian's phone rang. She picked up the phone and saw that it was Mu Huaichen calling.

"Hey, husband, it was you who helped me find the jade pendant on the table, right? Thank you." Xing Nian's voice was full of joy and gratitude.

"What are you thanking me for? This is my mother-in-law's stuff. As a son-in-law, it's my duty to retrieve my mother-in-law's stuff." Mu Huaichen said with a smile on the other end of the phone, "But I'm sorry, Nian Nian, I haven't found out anything about the origin of this jade pendant yet."

"It's okay, husband. It's great that you can find the jade pendant." Xing Nian comforted him. "If you can't find out anything, there's no need to investigate. You may run into someone with this kind of jade pendant in the future."

"Ah."

"By the way, Nian Nian, there is a party tonight and I need you to accompany me."

"Okay." Xing Nian agreed without hesitation, "Then I'll pack up and come find you later."

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Mu Huaichen hung up the phone, and Xing Nian also started to get up, wash and get ready.

Kyoto Airport.

At the VIP exit of the airport, Helan Xi's figure was like a cheetah in the dark, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

He was wearing a tailor-made black suit, which was well-cut and showed his noble temperament. Every detail revealed his extraordinary taste and highlighted the man's unique charm.

On his handsome face, his eyes were deep, as if they could see into people's hearts, revealing a dangerous aura that could not be ignored.

He is Helan Xi, the only son of the Helan family of Country Y and an awe-inspiring man.

Following closely behind him was a tall woman, Sylvia Michx.

She wore a pair of high heels, and her steps were light and graceful, as if she was walking on a catwalk. Her long brown curly hair fluttered in the wind, adding a bit of charm and style to her.

However, her beauty did not make Helan Xi look back. He walked straight out of the airport, leaving Xier alone.

Because of her high heels, Xier was unable to catch up with Helan Xi in time, and when she walked out of the airport, he was gone. She stamped her feet in anger.

After arriving at the hotel, Xier rushed into Helan Xi's room angrily, "Helan Xi, why did you leave me alone? I am your fiancée!"

However, Helan Xi did not give her this opportunity. He did not even spare her a glance and directly ordered his men to drive her out of the room.

After being kicked out of the room, Xier's dissatisfaction snowballed. She returned to her room, sat on the edge of the bed, clasped her hands, and thought about a lot of things.

The first time Xier saw Helan Xi, she was deeply attracted by his appearance and temperament. The dangerous and charming feeling in him made Xier crazy. At that moment, she knew that she wanted this man.

When Xier learned that he was going to be engaged to Helan Xi, the joy in his heart could not be expressed in words.

She knew that as the daughter of a large family, the choice of marriage was often not based on love, but on the interests of the family. But she was very fortunate that her marriage partner was Helan Xi, a person she truly loved.

She would not let anyone or anything hinder her marriage with Helan Xi. She wanted to hold Helan Xi firmly in her hands and make him her husband.

Xier stood up, walked to the mirror and looked at herself in the mirror. She knew that she was beautiful, intelligent and resourceful, and she would definitely be able to win Helan Xi's heart.
