Chapter 9: 9

Xiao Juan’s request was clearly against the rules. After all, there was a difference between men and women. How could he let them be alone in the room? How would it look if word got out?

However, Yu Kangtai feared Prince Lang from the bottom of his heart.

He was afraid of making the other party unhappy, so he hurriedly said.

“Okay, okay, okay. We’re going out now.”

With that, he took everyone away.

Even Dang Gui was dragged out.

Only Xiao Juan and Yu Niaoniao were left in the house.

Xiao You stared fixedly at the woman kneeling on the ground. There was still some smell of barbecue on her body. There were some oil stains on her sleeves and two grayish-black stains on her face. They should have been left behind when her fingers accidentally wiped her face.

No matter how he looked at it, she did not look like a rich young lady who had been raised in a wealthy family.

After a long time, Xiao Juan finally moved.

He slowly extended his right hand toward her.

Yu Qianqian was stunned at first, but then she felt warm.

Her cheeks flushed and she shyly put her left hand into his.

“Thank you, Your Highness.”

Unexpectedly, this man looked cold and even knew how to take the initiative to pull her up. His insides were quite warm.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Juan tiredly frowned and looked at her unhappily.

“Don’t play dumb. I’m asking you to hand over that jade pendant.”

Yu Niaoniao was speechless.

Ha, wretched man!

She withdrew her claws resentfully and Xiao Juan asked quietly,”What jade pendant?”

Xiao Juan said coldly, “I’ve already found out that you once took a jade pendant to Fang’s pawnshop. Where’s that jade pendant?”

Since the other party had already found out about Fang’s Pawnshop, there was no point in pretending to be stupid.

She slowly stood up and took out a transparent square jade pendant from her makeup box. The jade pendant was engraved with an auspicious beast totem, and there was an ink-green silk hairpin at the bottom. The workmanship was very exquisite.

Xiao Juan took the jade pendant, but his eyes were still on her.

“Where did you get this jade pendant?”

Yu Niaoniao told the truth.

“I picked it up.”

Xiao Juan clearly did not believe it. “What a coincidence.”

Yu Niaoniao nodded obediently. “What a coincidence.”

Xiao Juan narrowed his eyes slightly and threatened.

“Surely you know what will happen to you if you deceive me?”

Yu Niaoniao felt as if she had been wronged.

Her eyes quickly turned red and large tears rolled down her cheeks.

“Why doesn’t His Highness believe me? I admire His Highness so much that I want to cut my heart out for you to see. Why would I lie to you?”

Tears wet her cheeks, making her beautiful face look even more pitiful.

If it were an ordinary man, his heart would have softened by now.

However, Xiao Juan was not moved at all. His tone was still as cold as ice.

“Since you admire me, why did you sell my jade pendant?”

He answered her questions fluently.

“When I picked up the jade pendant, I didn’t know that it belonged to you. Coincidentally, I was short on money at that time, so I thought of pawning it. When I’m rich in the future, I’ll redeem it.”

She was telling the truth.

If she had known that the jade pendant belonged to Prince Lang, she wouldn’t have dared to sell it even if she was beaten to death!

While Xiao Juan ordered his men to investigate the rumors, he also asked his men to investigate Yu Niaoniao’s background.

He knew that she had grown up in Bashu and that there was a barrier between her and her biological father. Mrs. Jiang was not her biological mother and would not give her much pocket money.

Therefore, she was probably telling the truth when she said that she was short on money.

Yu Niaoniao clutched the hem of her clothes and looked at the Duke of Lang with trepidation, afraid that he would kill her if she disagreed.

She saw the Prince of Lang raise his right hand and reach into his sleeve.

Her little heart leapt into her throat.

Was he going to pull a dagger out of his sleeve and stab her in the chest?!

But in the next moment.

She saw Prince Lang take out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve.

Yes, she was not mistaken. It was really banknotes!

Xiao Juan placed the banknote in front of her and asked calmly.

“Do you want it?”
