Chapter 35 - Who Tampered With Her Safe? (3)

Even when she was working at a place like “White Crane”, she had maintained her pureness and never thought about clinging onto the rich and powerful. On top of that, even when she was misunderstood by others, she never explained herself in order to help her friend keep her secret.

Li ShiZe had met many women ever since he was a child, but he had never met one like Jiang YaGe who looked weak on the outside but was very stubborn and resilient on the inside. Plus, his mother and sister obviously disliked Jiang YaGe and always bullied her around the house. He couldn’t help but be even nice to her as he felt bad for her.

Of course, he also placed the blame on Zhong Yi. If Zhong Yi hadn’t been badmouthing YaGe constantly in front of his mother and sister, they certainly would not have such a bad impression of her.

As much as he had thought about, he maintained his image of being a man of few words. He only talked more in front of those he cared about.

“YaGe.”

Jiang YaGe looked at Li ShiZe with her limpid eyes. Her eyes were the best of all her features. They looked like they could talk. The way she looked at one hinted at romance and suggestiveness. Her eyes were also what made her go from an above-average looking woman to a pretty woman.

Li ShiZe said to her, “I’m sorry. My mom stashed her bracelet somewhere else and I couldn’t find it.”

Li ShiZe saw Jiang YaGe crying one day and found out that she had lost her bracelet. The bracelet didn’t belong to her, but it was a gift from her parents’ good friend. When she was one, she was betrothed to that family and the bracelet was given to her family as the betrothal gift. They were to return the bracelet if the two kids were not suitable for each other.

The little fires in Jiang YaGe’s eyes died off. “I have no feelings for him and didn’t want to marry him. But I wasn’t able to return the bracelet to them.”

Li ShiZe said to her, “Don’t worry, I will look for it some more and maybe see if we can buy a similar one? That shouldn’t be a problem when money is not an object.”

Jiang YaGe’s eyes were slightly red. “No, I have never seen one liked that elsewhere, except for Mom’s. There was a section in the middle that was so green, it was almost transparent and looked almost like the shape of a mountain.”

Li ShiZe wasn’t surprised that Jiang YaGe knew of his mother’s bracelet. She probably had seen his mom wear it in the past. He tried to comfort her by saying that, “Don’t worry. When push comes to shove, I will just give you my mom’s. Betrothals like that are not legally binding at this day and age.” Li ShiZe didn’t feel that it was a big deal to take his mom’s bracelet. What belonged to his parents would become his sooner or later. He was just getting it sooner was all.

He was reluctant to see YeGe marrying someone against her wish over something so silly. Except that he would need to avoid mentioning YaGe when he asked his mom for her bracelet. He worried that his mom would turn him down if she knew that YaGe had anything to do with it.

Jiang YaGe finally smiled after she heard him say that. “Thank you. I am glad I have you on my side.”

Li ShiZe curved his lips, and his look became much gentler. He was cold and handsome. When he smiled occasionally, it was like ice melting. Jiang YaGe was charmed by the smile. Her cheeks blushed, and she looked at him amorously with trust and happiness.
