Sit down and eat...
Ni Yang frowned inconspicuously except when she couldn’t avoid social niceties, she didn’t have a fondness for dining and chatting with strangers.
"If you have something to say, just say it," Ni Yang said lightly, pointing to the rest chairs in the mall, "We can go sit there."
Ni Yang had an intuition that this brother and sister were here for the bracelet.
"Oh, alright," Liu Qi said as he took Liu Ru’s hand and walked over.
These days, the mall’s rest chairs were very simple.
Liu Ru sat on the chair reluctantly—if looks could kill, Liu Qi would have died hundreds of times by now.
Usually, her brother was quite reliable, but she hadn’t expected him to turn into this upon meeting a pretty girl.
"Just say what you have to say," Ni Yang broke the silence, being the first to speak up.
Liu Qi pondered for a moment before saying, "Well, comrade, may I boldly ask where you bought the bracelet on your hand?"
"Is there a problem with my bracelet?" Ni Yang’s brows and eyes were clear and bright.
Liu Qi cleared his throat and continued, "It’s like this: there’s a long-lost elder in our family whose bracelet is identical to yours. So, we are wondering if the person who sold you the bracelet could be our elder..."
Ni Yang followed, "Are you that sure that the bracelet is your family elder’s?"
"Look at this," Liu Qi said.
As he spoke, Liu Qi took out an old photo, which didn’t capture a person, but a jade bracelet.
Although it was a black-and-white photo, the details were captured very clearly—anyone who knew their stuff would recognize at first glance that the two bracelets were one and the same.
Ni Yang took the photo and scrutinized it carefully.
After a moment, she handed the photo back to Liu Qi.
Liu Qi took back the photo, "Comrade, what do you think? Can you believe what I said now? This bracelet truly belongs to my family elder, and frankly, it’s also our family heirloom! Comrade, can you tell me where the person who sold you the bracelet is now?"
Could it be that Liu Qi and Liu Ru were Grandma Liu’s descendants?
But they didn’t look anything like Grandma Liu.
Ni Yang’s expression remained cool, "What relation is that elder to you?"
Liu Qi said, "She’s my aunt."
Aunt.
Normally a term of respect for one’s father’s brother’s wife.
Could it be that they were all Grandma Liu’s nephews and nieces?
Liu Ru was left speechless. freewebnovel.cσ๓
