But Sun Haitao's face changed, and he looked at Chen Chen incredibly, with surprise in his eyes.

After a while, Sun Haitao reached out to take the jade pendant, turned it over and handed it to Chen Chen.

The word "clean" on the back of the jade pendant appeared in Shen Chen's eyes. In an instant, his head "boomed" and almost lost his mind.

Shaking his head vigorously, Chen Chen made his head clearer, but his heart was still messy, and he couldn't help but murmur, "How is this possible? How is it possible?"

When I bought the jade pendant, it was warm and smooth. Chen Chen looked carefully and found that it was exactly the same, exactly the same as Meng Jie was wearing.

Rubbing the word "clean", Chen Chen felt infinite imagination and emotion in his heart.

In my previous life, I took Mengjie to escape from the pursuit and was thrilling and nervous. Only Mengjie's kindness and innocent smile could give Chen Chen a warm comfort.

However, Chen Chen died in the end, and Meng Jie stopped breathing in his arms.

This is probably Chen Chen’s biggest regret. He can remember it for life and never forget it.

And his struggle, his killing, is redemption, and his expectation for a bright future in his heart.

The jade pendant suddenly flashed, and Chen Chen thought he was confused. When he looked closely, the jade pendant seemed to have nothing happened, and he lay quietly in the palm of his hand.

Huh?!Sun Haitao made a sound of surprise, which made Chen Chen look up at him.

"This, this jade pendant seemed like..." Sun Haitao was not sure, and his hand unconsciously drew a circle in the air and looked at Chen Chen with a consulting gaze.

Chen Chen blinked his eyes and asked tentatively: "It seems like a flash, have you seen it?"

Sun Haitao nodded vigorously, his face full of shock.

Chen Chen lowered his head and looked at the jade pendant over and over, hoping to find clues, or hope that it would flash again.

But no matter whether he was holding it in his hand to use the temperature, rubbing, pinching, pressing, there was nothing unusual about the jade pendant.

"This--" Sun Haitao saw Chen Chen's busy work and was almost sweating, so he couldn't help but speak from the side: "Maybe it's not like this."

Chen Chen raised his head and looked at Sun Haitao in confusion.

Sun Haitao was not sure, and he didn't understand what the strange phenomenon was like just now, but he still said according to his own guess: "Maybe it's just at a specific time, or it may mean a specific meaning."

"Specific time, specific meaning?" Chen Chen frowned slightly and thought.

"Mr. Chen, your friend is a woman, right?" Sun Haitao stayed for a while and asked tentatively.

Chen Chen glanced at Sun Haitao and nodded with a wry smile. Although he was a woman, but the time gap was so big, how could it be Mengjie?

"I'm afraid I won't see her again?" Chen Chen sighed.

"Maybe - I can find her through this jade pendant." Sun Haitao said: "Although I have never seen that phenomenon, the book often says that some things are only different to those who are destined to be. I said that just now, I can only explain this."

"Do you believe this?" Chen Chen felt a little fantasy and asked.

Sun Haitao smiled bitterly and said, "It's still important to believe it or not. I saw it with my own eyes just now."

Chen Chen lowered his eyelids and felt that the reason why he felt strange these days seemed to have found it. This jade pendant may be the key and the guide.

"Mr. Sun, can you sell this jade pendant to me?" Chen Chen raised his head, made up his mind and said.

Sun Haitao blinked, suddenly smiled, and said, "I can see that this jade pendant is very important to Mr. Chen. So, I decided to give it to you."

"Give it to me?" Chen Chen was a little surprised and waved his hand and said, "How can this be done? These are all cultural relics, all treasures--"

"This one is different." Sun Haitao explained: "If it is really a national treasure, it is not something I can decide personally, and I dare not give it to others casually."

As he said that, he pointed to the jade pendant and said, "This jade pendant is indeed old, but the word "Jie" was engraved on the back, destroying its original value. Moreover, I collected this jade pendant, so I can make the decision."

Chen Chen looked at the jade pendant, and the most important thing was to look carefully at the word "jie" and asked in confusion: "Mr. Sun, where did you collect this jade pendant?"

Sun Haitao smiled and said, "It's a Liuli Factory in Peking, a place that specializes in various antiques. If Mr. Chen wants to ask me which person sells it, I can't provide it."

"Then—" Chen Chen thought for a while and asked, "Can Mr. Sun provide a rough area or other information related to the jade pendant?"

Sun Haitao shook his head and said, "I can only be sure that the source of this jade pendant is in the north. I can't say the specific place."

Chen Chen nodded, and was not polite, put away the jade pendant and said, "I am not pretentious, but I will repay you if I have kindness. I will not ask for this jade pendant for nothing."

Sun Haitao smiled and said, "Then I am also grateful. I hope this jade pendant can help Mr. Chen find that lost friend."

Can it be found? Surely not.

Chen Chen smiled a little reluctantly and bitterly.

But Chen Chen believed in the arrangements in the dark and this incredible guide. Because this is probably the only opportunity to make up for his greatest regret.

Everything is possible, how can you know if you don’t try it?

…………………

Christmas Eve is coming soon and Christmas is coming, and Cao Yixin's feelings this year are even stronger.

In previous years, I had no relatives, but I was just having fun; this year I had a close lover, so I hope I could spend this festival with him.

The whispering under the lamp, the warm wine is warm, the closer it is, the more I look forward to it and look forward to it. She also knew that Chen Chen was very busy recently, but she still hoped that he could take time.

Early in the morning, Cao Yixin got up early, and after dinner, she sat lazily in the living room, looking through a book absent-mindedly.

Although there are bodyguards and servants in such a large western-style building, they seem deserted.

Of course, this is not a question of too many people. As long as the man is by his side, Cao Yixin would rather be alone than feel lonely.

Cao Yixin threw down the book boredly and looked at the door through the glass window. She hoped that the man would appear there in the blink of an eye. She sighed softly and lowered her eyelids...

That was, Cao Yixin's heart thumped up. She couldn't believe it was true for a moment, and she thought her eyes were blurred! She wiped her eyes with her hands and looked at them again with her spirit.

So, all the blood in her body seemed to be frozen. At this moment, it seemed very long and short. She shouted happily and ran out like barefoot...

The woman who was so excited that she was trembling all over, as if no one was around, was filled with joy. Chen Chen was hot all over, and a strong impulse and happiness arose in his heart. It was great if someone loved her.

Cao Yixin's eyes were nothing but Chen Chen. She kissed Chen Chen and hung her arms around his neck, fearing that it would be a dream. Once her hands were loosened, the feeling of dying happiness would pass away with the wind.

"Can you enter the house first? You are still barefoot!" Chen Chen picked up Cao Yixin and walked into the living room. The servant stepped back tactfully.

Cao Yixin pressed against Chen Chen tightly, greedily smelling the familiar and exciting manly smell.

Chen Chen kissed her lips, cheeks, eyes, forehead, neck and hair, and whispered in her ears: "You are dressed very fashionable and beautiful..."

"Well, um--" Cao Yixin blocked Chen Chen's mouth with her scorching red lips, kissed her passionately, and whispered happily.

After a while, the two separated and looked at each other and smiled.

Cao Yixin took Chen Chen's hand and held it tightly on her chest, looking at Chen Chen's face tenderly without blinking.

"I have to wash and change my clothes." Chen Chen gently pinched Cao Yixin's face and smiled: "I've been so busy these days that I've been hitting the back of my head, and I've been covered in smelly sweat."

"It's not smelly, I like it." Cao Yixin wanted to make Chen Chen smaller and be able to carry it with her. His eyebrows, body temperature, and words were so intoxicating that she didn't want to leave for a moment.

"Then you have to clean up, and then you can go out with me to do something." Chen Chen gently pressed against Cao Yixin's face and said awkwardly: "Let's wash together, it's white. I'll love you well tonight."

Cao Yixin pursed her lips and smiled sweetly, kissed Chen Chen, and walked upstairs with Chen Chen's hand.

Warm water surrounds the body, and fatigue slowly dissipates from the open pores.

In the hazy water vapor, Cao Yixin was wearing thin clothes, half-undressed, and thoughtfully and carefully rubbed Chen Chen's back, blushing like a big apple, and tiny beads of sweat were also oozing out of her forehead.

"Everett invites us to dinner. This old man doesn't know what's wrong." Chen Chen was comfortable being served, but his hands were not honest for a moment. He slid on Cao Yixin's thighs and pinched her hips and waist.

"Can't it be fine at night?" Cao Yixin's eyes became softer and softer, and she was made all over by Chen Chen.

Chen Chen smiled badly and teased: "What's wrong? Madam, do you want to rest sooner?"

Cao Yixin nodded shyly and asked softly: "Are you tired now?"

"Now?" Chen Chen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he smiled wickedly and pulled Cao Yixin into the bathtub. Water splashed everywhere, and Cao Yixin was screaming unexpectedly, followed by a coquettish and laughter.

…………………

"I can't spend the Spring Festival this year in Shanghai!" Everett sighed at the table, and showed his understanding of Chinese customs to his daughter Jennifer.

"For Chinese people, everyone in the family must have dinner together. After the third day of the Chinese New Year, we will start visiting relatives and friends. Everyone has to wear new clothes, and relatives and friends have to give their children New Year's money. This is called good luck. Shen, am I right?"

"Very correct." Chen Chen said with a smile and joked: "This Spring Festival, it seems that you can't make your red envelope New Year's money!"

"Hahahaha." Everett laughed happily and said, "Shen, sending red envelopes is an intimate expression in China, which means that our relationship is extraordinary. And I have prepared that for good luck, the money packet must be red, and the money inside must be new, and you will receive it at that time. I understand, I understand."

Jennifer is in good spirits and seems to have adapted to life in Shanghai. I heard that she also became a master and learned to sing opera. But her other new hobby surprised Chen Chen a little.

"Mahjong, we play four laps in a while, no, eight laps, how about it?"

Jennifer's proposal made Chen Chen and Cao Yixin look at each other, and then look at Everett, without saying a word for the time being.

Everett shrugged helplessly and said, "Don't look at me. She likes this kind of intelligence game very much. It should be said that it is a game where luck and wisdom coexist. I think this proposal is very good. If you Chinese play mahjong, won't you stay up all night?"

"Haha, it's really good to play mahjong!" Chen Chen quickly returned to normal, but he was a little confused and asked tentatively: "Then let's just play around. Yixin, how are you? Are you interested?"

"It's interesting, there's some." Cao Yixin paused deliberately and said with a smile: "But, I prefer the feeling of winning money."

"We don't play money-" Chen Chen felt that playing mahjong with foreigners was really suspected of bullying, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jennifer.

"Of course you have to have a lottery ticket, which will be exciting." Jennifer smiled and looked at her father, saying, "I am already an adult, isn't it? This is not a gambling game, it's just a small adult game, not a kid-like joke."

"Of course, we need excitement, passion, excitement." Everrey pointed his head and said as a matter of course: "In this dull and dangerous era, we need these more. Four or eight laps, we have to fight for a night."

What are you doing? It’s just playing mahjong all night. As for how it’s so philosophical? Chen Chen blinked and looked at Cao Yixin, with a confused expression.

After dinner, Everett and Jennifer were very fond of Chinese food and were very satisfied with it. Then they took a break in the living room, drank coffee and tea, chatted and laughed.

"Mr. Everett is going to be transferred to Tianjin, I don't know what will happen in the future?" Chen Chen turned the topic to the point, "I just think it's safer in Shanghai for the time being."

"Haha, if the Japanese want to go to war with Britain, it will be the same in Shanghai and Tianjin." Everett said with a smile: "Of course, for you, it is only guaranteed in the Shanghai Concession."

"I may go to Tianjin in a while," Jennifer interrupted, "BAT has already intended to hire me as a regional manager, and I will seek positions in Tianjin or nearby."

Chen Chen shook his head gently and said, "In my opinion, Japan and Britain and the United States are inevitable to fight. For security reasons, leaving China is the best choice."

Although the war is getting louder and tighter, many people still think that Japan will not be stupid enough to challenge Britain and the United States.

Because in terms of national strength and military strength, Japan is far inferior to Britain and the United States, and is still dragged down on the Chinese battlefield. In the face of various difficulties, launching a war against Britain and the United States is tantamount to suicide.

That's right, it's just suicide. But the Japanese started and defeated Britain and the United States in the early stages of the war.

And Everett is undoubtedly the one who holds this view. His analysis is accurate, but he only saw the gap in strength between the two sides, but did not expect the madness of the Japanese.

To understand the madness of the Japanese, we must start with the national characteristics of the Japanese, which is exactly what the self-righteous Western nose lacks.
