Chapter 394: Chapter 393: Name Your Price_1

It was from Nangong Que that Yan Ling learned that her bracelet had quite a significant background.

It came from the Dongfang family, one of the oldest families in Z Country.

Legend has it, the Dongfang family, this mysterious clan, had the ability to foresee and defy destiny.

However, over a hundred years ago, a major event took place. The family vanished overnight, never to be heard from again.

Some said it was due to the Dongfang family revealing divine secrets which resulted in divine punishment, leading to its extinction after five generations.

Others believed that the Dongfang family had predicted the upcoming war and chose to go into hiding for self-preservation.

Regardless, there were many legends surrounding the Dongfang family.

But many simply regarded it as a tale.

Seldom did anyone believe that the family still existed in this world.

Noticing Yan Ling was silent, Nangong Que grew anxious, "Everything I’ve said is true. If you don’t believe me, you can come with me and see for yourself if the Dongfang family’s clan badge is identical to the one on your bracelet!"

Eh, that was definitely unnecessary!

She didn’t want to get herself involved with such a powerful family because of a bracelet.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, Yan Ling decided to be straightforward, "This bracelet is a keepsake left to me by my late mother. I’m sorry, but I have no idea of its origin."

"Are you sure it’s your mother’s?"

Upon hearing her response, Nangong Que’s expression grew complex.

His uncle claimed that he had gifted the bracelet to the woman he loved.

Could it be that this woman’s mother was the one who had a one-night-stand with his uncle?

The woman in front of him, could she be...

No, it was impossible!

He had investigated prior to their meeting. Yan Ling’s parents got engaged on the same day when his uncle met the casual acquaintance.

Therefore, her mother couldn’t possibly be the woman his uncle was searching for!

Unaware of Nangong Que’s thoughts, Yan Ling replied, "Mr. Nangong, I’m sorry about your elder’s lost bracelet. But this bracelet is my mother’s keepsake. I only found it recently. It’s the only memory I have of her left. So, no matter what, I won’t easily give it away."

In fact, Yan Ling was unable to understand why her mother, amongst all her dowry, considered this bracelet as a treasure.

Perhaps her mother had some connection with the owner of this bracelet, or maybe it held a special meaning to her.

But no matter what, her mother was already gone.

The origin of this bracelet.

How it ended up in her mother’s possession.

None of that mattered anymore.

The only thing she knew was that this bracelet was left by her mother.

Given her mother’s nature, if this thing wasn’t important to her, she certainly wouldn’t have cherished it so much.

Hence, she couldn’t casually hand it over to anyone else.

Nangong Que didn’t expect Yan Ling to be so firm in her stance. He originally thought that with a little sweet talk and persuasion, she would return the bracelet to him.

"Dr. Yan, I understand the significance of this bracelet to you, but it’s also very important to my uncle. How about this, I’ll give you ten million for it?"

Yan Ling decisively refused, "Not selling."

"What about fifty million then?"

"Not selling."

"If you’re not satisfied with the amount, you can name your price. We’ll try to accommodate as much as possible."

"This is my mother’s keepsake. No matter the amount, I won’t sell it!"

After dropping this statement, Yan Ling stood up and glanced at Nangong Que. She then took out a thick stack of cash from her wallet.

"Thank you for the lunch, Mr. Nangong. This covers the meal. I’ll be going then!"
