Chapter 552: She Received a Necklace

Chapter 554: She Received a Necklace

“You’re a woman, so you should get married. Moreover, I can’t possibly be with you forever, so you’d be living alone in this house in the future,” Madam Shu was very anxious and each time she heard her daughter say such words, she became even more worried.

Shu Man rose to her feet and she looked very helpless as she said, “Mum, who would want to marry a woman who isn’t healthy? As you know, I’m infertile and only have one kidney.”

Since she only had one kidney, this had greatly affected her health and the remaining kidney left within her was not in a great condition either. Last year, she developed kidney stones that almost killed her. She wasn’t able to participate in strenuous activities, neither could she overwork herself. To make matters worse, she found out that she was infertile last year and was unable to produce normal ovum, so she would never be a mother in this lifetime.

Shu Man had no expectations toward marriage at this thought and she thought that no family would want to have an infertile daughter-in-law such as herself.

Madam Shu sighed.

She had hoped that a good man would be able to accept her daughter despite her health conditions and truly wished that her daughter would be able to find a good husband.

“Alright, mum. You may leave. As for the nephew of an acquaintance you mentioned, I don’t mind meeting him as a friend,” she said and motioned for her mother to leave.

She had to work on a design that had to be submitted to her company for approval before the Lunar New Year Eve.

“Oh yes,” Shu Man suddenly said as she recalled something, “Mum, could you head to the guard room and collect the item that the stranger sent over earlier? Please make sure that you check that it’s safe and that it doesn’t contain any drugs or explosives that might get us into trouble.”

Shu Man was always extremely cautious and would always think of the worst case scenario.

Madam Shu went out and soon collected a small box from the guard room. It was a gift box that had been wrapped prettily and looked like a gift for her daughter.

Madam Shu smiled happily and she became extremely pleased at the thought that someone was pursuing her daughter.

“Man Man, I’ve collected it from the guard room. Come out and take a look,” Madam Shu asked Shu Man to come out excitedly the moment she returned. She was really curious to find out what could be in the box.

Shu Man stopped whatever she was working on and came to the living room, then looked at the small box expressionlessly. A gift box?

“I guess my sister must have asked someone to send this box over,” Shu Man said and she could only think of her sister when she saw such a pretty gift box. Her sister was very rich, so she had received many gifts from her sister during this period, including several accessories. She had already told her sister that she had no need for them but her sister insisted on sending those gifts over.

Shu Man opened the pretty gift box without any hesitation and soon, she spotted a small box that looked like a pretty jewelry box.

She guessed that it was probably some kind of accessory and opened it without much thought. Just as she thought, it was a necklace but oddly, this necklace didn’t look new and as for the style of the necklace?

Shu Man picked up the necklace and examined it. Then, a sliver of confusion flashed past her eyes. This necklace had belonged to someone and it seemed like a masculine necklace. The pendant was in the shape of a cross and encrusted with several small diamonds.

“Man Man, there’s a small card in there,” Madam Shu said as she picked up a beautiful small card from the box. There were two sentences on the card and a phone number.

“Let me have a look…”
