Chapter 276: 【275】Tasty and Pretty Fisherman 126 (3 more updates)

After Xiao Yu left the city, her brows had not relaxed because the words that kept echoing in her mind were from just earlier.

She also took out the Jade Pendant to carefully examine it. To get a clear view of the pattern on the Jade Pendant, she even held it up under the sunlight.

Just then, coincidentally, the curtain of a nearby horse carriage was lifted, and someone noticed the Jade Pendant in her hand and immediately halted the carriage.

Then they shouted to the servants surrounding the carriage, "Quick, stop that person!"

Xiao Yu was unaware of the trouble brewing until the guards on horseback surrounded her carriage, and that’s when she realized something was amiss.

"Quick, search him. I just saw him with a Jade Pendant that looks a lot like the one Brother Qing lost."

Xiao Yu turned to look and saw a woman in the carriage, her face veiled but dressed flamboyantly screeching at her subordinates, her emotions highly agitated.

Hearing that they were looking for the Jade Pendant, Xiao Yu’s expression remained unchanged, but inside, she became more alert and immediately transferred the Jade Pendantto her storage space.

Taking advantage of the situation, she bought a Jade Pendant of similar color from the Space Supermarket before the others could search her and immediately handed it over.

"Is this what you’re talking about?"

The Jade Pendant Xiao Yu produced was not the genuine Imperial Green but a fake created by future generations. It was shaped like a donut, hollow in the middle, circular on the sides, with some patterns engraved on the frame. Compared to the Jade Pendant she previously held from Yan Qing, there was a significant difference, but under pressure, she could not find a better match.

After her subordinates had surrounded Xiao Yu, the lady from the carriage stepped down, holding her skirt. She only wore a veil inside the carriage, but now put on a hooded cloak. Her clothes were luxurious, supported by a Maid, and surrounded by government officers, she must clearly be an official’s daughter.

If she hadn’t misheard earlier, she did indeed hear the phrase "Brother Qing’s lost Jade Pendant." Could this Brother Qing possibly be Yan Qing?

"No, what you had just now was not this piece. I saw it clearly, that Jade Pendant had a unique Fire Pattern of the Royal Family."

So, the patterns around the Jade Pendant were the Fire Pattern, she thought, how did she miss that? This girl had sharp eyes!

What to do now? A body search? Wouldn’t that put her at a disadvantage?

No, they could not search her body.

But with the current situation, could she possibly leave without a search?

Clearly, that was impossible.

Xiao Yu quickly searched the Space Mall for Jade Pendants featuring the fiery pattern and unexpectedly found several. She then pretended to be casual, pulling all of them from her bosom, "Miss, I’ve taken out all the Jade Pendants on me. Which one are you talking about?"

"What do you do, carrying so many Jade Pendants?" The girl didn’t speak, but her guards did.

Xiao Yu sheepishly replied, "I’m in the Jade Pendant business. I just left the city, and they don’t accept such defective products, so I,"

She then changed her tone, bowing obsequiously to the group in front of her.

"If Miss likes this type, there are more at my home. Why don’t we go and see them together?"

The girl was silent for a while, then took the Jade Pendant in Xiao Yu’s hand and examined it upside down and sideways. She felt that what she had seen earlier wasn’t the same, but when this lad had started pulling things out, everything had fallen out, so it should be improbable for him to have concealed anything.

Could she have been mistaken?

Among the Jade Pendants in front of her carrying the flame pattern, there were indeed several, all green. The likelihood of her seeing incorrectly was obviously higher than the chance of finding Brother Qing’s Jade Pendant.

After all, he had once said that the Jade Pendant had fallen into the ocean...
