Chapter 291: Chapter 213: He said, my ex-wife Miss Tang Xi.

"Aunt Xu, where did you get this from?"

Fu Tingzhou had been searching for the Jade Pendant for so many days, and it ended up with the cleaning lady.

To retrieve this pendant, Fu Tingzhou had searched the entire emergency department and found nothing at all.

The arrogant daughter of the Gao Family made a huge fuss in the emergency department over it.

And in the end, it was hanging on a cleaner’s keys.

Xu Jiayun is the janitor here; she’s almost 60 years old. She couldn’t recognize the quality of a White Jade Pendant, just chanced upon it in the trash can. Her eyesight was somewhat poor now; she often couldn’t find her keys on the cupboard, so she used this pendant as a keychain to make it easier to find.

She didn’t think the pendant was anything valuable since it was glued together after being broken like this.

But now, seeing Tang Xi’s somewhat serious and shocked expression, Xu Jiayun quickly said, "Doctor Tang, is this yours? Oh, I didn’t know, I just found it in the trash can. I thought someone had thrown it away, and you see, I didn’t break it. It was already cracked..."

Tang Xi hadn’t expected the situation to be such a coincidence.

She looked at the cleaner explaining in fear and said, "It’s okay, it belonged to a patient. The patient came back and couldn’t find it. Just leave it at the nurses’ station..."

Xu Jiayun glanced around and seeing that it was just the two of them in the changing room, she pleaded, "Doctor Tang, can we keep this between us... It’s not easy for me to have found this cleaning job at my age. I say I found it, but others might think I stole it, and I can’t clear my name easily. Maybe, Doctor Tang, I could give you this, and you can return it to the patient... and let this matter pass. I shouldn’t have, I shouldn’t have been so greedy to pick it up from the trash... I didn’t realize anyone still wanted it..."

This Jade Pendant, in Tang Xi’s hands, was like a scalding hot branding iron.

Her fingers trembled slightly.

Looking up, she saw the pleading gaze of the elderly, slightly gray-haired cleaner. Tang Xi hesitated for a moment, then slowly nodded.

-

Back at home, Tang Xi cleaned the jade pendant and wiped it with tissue paper.

The pendant wasn’t big, but entirely lustrous.

Yet now, it was full of cracks.

She had caused them.

And it was she who again glued them together bit by bit.

The glue was of a very ordinary quality, and this otherwise perfect jade pendant now had irremediable cracks.

Just like her relationship with Fu Tingzhou.

To this day, four years have passed; every time she dreamed of him, she would wake up in fear.

Even now when he has lost his memory.

When near him, Tang Xi could still feel the chilling and heartless aura flowing in his blood; he was still the same, the merciless Fu Tingzhou, memory loss or not.

She didn’t know how to return the Jade Pendant to Fu Tingzhou.

Mail it maybe??

In any case, she must not let him discover her.

She didn’t want to keep the pendant with herself either; she had once... four years ago when she left Qingfeng Garden, wanted to take it with her, but in the rush, she forgot.

Now, four years later, it had come back to her, though she was no longer the person she used to be.

Tang Xi found a red velvet jewelry box and placed the Jade Pendant inside it.

She didn’t know where Fu Tingzhou was living now; was it still the same hotel?

Recalling that somewhat absurd night, Tang Xi didn’t dare to go look for him.

Suddenly, a person came to mind - wasn’t the Gao Family’s young lady wholeheartedly devoted to Fu Tingzhou? She knew the address of the Gao Family, the most famous wealthy district in the northern island, but she didn’t have the phone number of Gao Youhan. Tang Xi thought for a moment, and rang Gao Jianlin.

She initially thought about asking directly for Gao Youhan’s number, but Gao Jianlin invited her to have dinner together in the evening.

Tang Xi agreed.

There’s a famous tourist area on the northern island, which is the coastal barbecue.

In the evening, under the breeze of the sea, along the shore, with a faint fishy salty aroma, barbecue stalls span continuously, brightly lit.

Tang Xi and Gao Jianlin were strolling, each holding a few skewers of barbecue. There were many people here, many of them tourists.

Gao Jianlin, "You want Gao Youhan’s phone number? Did she bully you? Did she go to the emergency room to bully you again?"

Tang Xi quickly shook her head, "No, I just have something I want to give her, but I’m not familiar with her, so I thought of sending it by courier."

"What is it? I can deliver it to her for you."

"You.....would it be a trouble for you?" Tang Xi knew that the relationship between Gao Jianlin and Gao Youhan wasn’t good; in fact, Gao Jianlin’s situation within the Gao Family was quite difficult.

"It’s no trouble."

"Forget it, I’ll just courier it. That way, she won’t know it’s from me."

Gao Jianlin gave her Gao Youhan’s number, and the two sat down at a water bar on the beach, where Tang Xi ordered a freshly squeezed juice.

"President Fu, this is the seaside barbecue eateries, all developed by our Gao Family. Once we collaborate, this place will be upgraded. As you see, many tourists and locals like to be here..." Gao Chengxiong was walking with Fu Tingzhou, introducing the local customs, when suddenly Gao Chengxiong saw someone not far away, "Jianlin."

Fu Tingzhou looked up and saw Tang Xi sitting with Gao Jianlin.

The two were laughing and talking.

Gao Chengxiong hastily introduced, "That’s my son, Gao Jianlin."

Fu Tingzhou’s face was expressionless, but he felt the woman’s smile was particularly glaring.

Is she that desperate?

Frantically clinging to different men?

How many days has it been, how many men has she seduced?

Tang Xi hadn’t expected to bump into Fu Tingzhou while out for a barbecue; it made her wonder if the northern island was too small, or if her luck was just too bad.

The more she wanted to avoid, the more she encountered.

Subconsciously, she touched her bag; the Jade Pendant was inside.

She was still wondering how to discreetly give this item to Fu Tingzhou when the man was already standing in front of her.

Gao Chengxiong glanced at Gao Jianlin and then at Tang Xi, quickly sizing her up as someone of humble origins due to her plain white shirt and jeans. He was displeased that his son would associate with such an ordinary woman, hopeful for more from Gao Jianlin, "Jianlin, this is President Fu, whom dad has mentioned to you."

Gao Jianlin respectfully said, "President Fu, hello."

Fu Tingzhou just slightly lifted his eyelids.

Gao Chengxiong didn’t expect Fu Tingzhou to pay much attention to his son and immediately continued introducing the surrounding environment, how to utilize it, how to maximize benefits, and how to develop it.

Meanwhile, Tang Xi was preparing to slip away.

Seeing Tang Xi about to leave, Gao Jianlin also prepared to go with her.

Fu Tingzhou’s lips curled into a faint smile as he watched the woman’s back, uttering in a light, breezy voice, with a hint of playfulness, "Let me take you; I was just about to leave as well."

Gao Chengxiong, "Ah? President Fu, you know her?"

Tang Xi’s back was locked under the man’s intensely cold gaze.

She sensed trouble.

Then she heard Fu Tingzhou’s voice, cold and indifferent, drifting in the breeze, with a playful tone, "Tch? I forgot to introduce her. My ex-wife, Tang Xi."
