Chapter 4118 Even if it’s just a word

Xi Jinning didn't believe it. He put down the tissue and said, "I was just cut by the box."

The old man said softly, "It was the jade that caused you to be cut. It reminds you that you won't live long."

Xi Jinning narrowed his eyes, "So?"

The old man pushed the jade bracelet in front of him, "So, you have to buy it. It will keep you safe and the people you love safe."

Keep the ones you love safe.

After hearing the last seven words, Xi Jinning lowered his eyes and glanced. The price of the jade bracelet was 280,000.

"That's not how you cheat money, right?" Xia Han looked at the old man, "Two hundred and eighty thousand, why don't you go and grab it?!"

She said and pulled Xi Jinning to leave, but Xi Jinning pushed her hand away. He faced the counter and said, "Okay, I want it."

Xia Han looked up in surprise, "Brother Jin Ning, you..."

Xi Jinning took out a gold card and pushed it along the table, "Swipe the card, there is no password."

"OK."

The old man took the card and swiped it with a smile on his face. He wrapped the jade bracelet and handed it over, "Remember to wear it and don't take it off. It will bless you and your lover."

Xi Jinning took the bag, nodded and walked to the other side.

Xia Han was stunned and hurriedly chased after him, "Brother Jin Ning, 280,000 yuan, equivalent to more than 1.3 million yuan... Why do you want to buy it?"

"Didn't you hear what he said? Keep the people I love safe," Xi Jinning put one hand in his pocket and slightly curled his lips, "How could I not want to keep Chu Qi safe?"

Xia Han frowned and her tone was a little excited. She didn't know if it was because he spent money or something else, "He just deliberately used this sentence to deceive you..."

"As it relates to Chu Qi, I am willing to be deceived, even if it is just a word."

Xi Jinning didn't even look back and answered completely out of his mouth. As he spoke, he walked to a counter and looked down at the ring.

"..."

Xia Han stood on the edge. She looked up at Xi Jinning's slightly curved and slender body, her eyes filled with lingering bitterness.

Jincheng Apartment.

The living room was still dark. Mo Chuqi changed her shoes and came in. Bai Yanxun bent down and put the candle on the table, "Sit down first and I'll pour you a glass of water."

"No, thank you." Mo Chuqi raised her phone and said, "Professor, do you have a power bank at home? My phone is out of battery and I can't contact my classmates."

"Hold on."

Bai Yan turned around and found a power bank for her. Mo Chuqi charged her cell phone and turned it on. No one answered the phone, so she sent a few more text messages to Xia Han.

Bai Yanxun sat down opposite her. He clasped his hands and said very calmly, "I didn't mean to target you in class today."

Mo Chuqi muttered, "On purpose."

Bai Yanxun, "..."

He wasn't going to explain anything anymore. He was indeed targeting her, but not in the way she thought.

The two of them were sitting across the coffee table. Bai Yanxun lowered his eyes. Under the candlelight, it could be seen that there was a layer of fog in his eyes, as if there was something that made it impossible to see his eyes clearly.

No one spoke, and the atmosphere was silent for a moment. Mo Chuqi got up and went to the bathroom. As soon as she closed the door, her cell phone on the coffee table began to vibrate.

The three words "Brother Jin Ning" flashed on the screen.

Bai Yanxun glanced at it, took the phone and pressed the answer button, "Hello?"

On the other end, Xi Jinning frowned and said in a nervous tone, "Who are you? Why did you answer this call?"
