After hesitating for a moment, he strode over and put the water cup by Joan's hand: "your flower tea."
Then he looked at Shen Yijia with a shocked face: "brother Jia, you saw it, and I won't hide it from you. My leg... Recovered."
Shen Yijia tried to close her open mouth, put away the shock in her eyes, and said, "Oh."
So Huo Chengzhou walked to the sofa area and asked, "what you want to say, do you need me to go out?"
Shen Yijia shook his head: "No."
Huo Chengzhou smiled and sat down directly on the sofa. He took his documents again and began to look through them.
In fact, a group of nervous people.
How could Shen Yijia see it!
Did he forget to lock the door!
Shen Yijia turned his face rigidly and looked at Joan. Joan scratched her head: "cough, I know, he didn't mean to hide it. There are still some things to deal with."
Shen Yijia nodded, "Oh."
Then he handed out the red velvet box in his hand: "this is the jade pendant you wore when you were a child. I've brought it back for you."
Joan motioned him to sit down. Then she opened the box. Sure enough, she saw a warm lanolin jade pendant tied with a new red rope. It felt warm and cool.
"I've been wearing it since I was a child?" She asked.
Shen Yijia nodded, "yes."
"Did you pay for it?"
"Of course not." Shen Yijia raised her eyebrows slightly: "this is something for the Shen family. It has helped the Qiao family set up an enterprise. Now it's time to retire and return the things to their original owners."
Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Joan didn't ask more.
In short, the Shen family will not directly turn against the Qiao family. After all, they still have a little parenting grace.
Joan took the jade pendant back into the box: "just take it back. This time you can explain it to Grandpa. You can take it back to Grandpa directly. I don't think I can go back before the piano competition."
Shen Yijia smiled: "do you really think it's the old man who wants it?"
"Isn't it?"
"No." Shen Yijia pushed the box to her: "this is yours. When you marry later, this is also your dowry."
When it comes to getting married, Joan subconsciously glanced at Huo Chengzhou and just caught the gentle sight he was handing over.
Her face turned red: "is there peace?"
"There are only two jade pendants. Now yours is here and your sister's is in Yining."
"Then give this to peace." Joan said, "I wore it when I was a child. When I grow up, it's just for Anning."
"You keep it. Mother at Anning keeps a jade bracelet for her. She won't favor one over the other."
Joan didn't bother: "OK, thank you, brother."
"You're welcome. It belongs to you."
Shen Yijia glanced at his watch: "I'll go to Ling's piano shop later. If I make an appointment with Ling Yi to talk about something, I won't stay here any more."
"OK." Joanne got up and said, "I'll see you off."
"Don't send it."
Huo Chengzhou also stood up and said, "brother, go slowly."
Shen Yijia glanced at him and nodded, "HMM."
Joan followed her out. When she got to the stairs, Shen Yijia stopped and lowered her voice: "you knew?"
Joanne nodded: "well... There's a reason why he didn't announce it to the public. Brother, just pretend you don't know, okay?"
"Parents can't tell?" Shen Yijia asked.
Joanne nodded silently, "well... It's important."
"OK." Shen Yijia breathed a sigh of relief: "seeing him like this, I can rest assured to give you to him."
Joanne curled her lips and smiled, "Yeah."
After seeing Shen Yijia off, Joan turned back to the office and was held by Huo Chengzhou as soon as she entered the door. There was a little tension between her eyebrows and eyes: "what did big brother say? Can you be angry?"
