Besides, Gu Ning not only felt uncomfortable, but she also felt that something was pulling her somewhere. It wasn’t convenient for her to leave earlier, but now she decided to follow the strange feeling.
As she walked away, the feeling grew stronger, and Gu Ning could feel the distance and excitement. However, she knew it had nothing to do with her consciousness, because it was something she couldn’t control. Therefore, Gu Ning thought that it might have something to do with her Jade Eyes.
Either way, she had to figure it out.Drawn by the feeling, Gu Ning went to the jade exhibition area. She had a pair of Jade Eyes, so she naturally could see the white mist around the jade. It was obvious that the jade had magical power.
However, Gu Ning ignored the other jade and went straight to a piece of jade.
It was called the Jade with Dragon Phoenix Cloud Pattern, and it was made during the Warring States period.
This jade was made of white jade from Hotan, Xinjiang. Both sides of the jade were decorated with moiré patterns for 6 circles. The moiré was slightly raised, and a line was engraved on it. A chilong was carved in the hole, with a beast body, a unicorn head, wings on the side and a long tail decorated with rope patterns. A phoenix was carved on each side of the jade, with a long body, a long feather on the top of the head, and a long tail curling down under the body.
The feeling drew Gu Ning to find this Jade with Dragon Phoenix Cloud Pattern, and she could feel that her excitement had something to do with it too. Accordingly, Gu Ning was more sure that this jade had a certain connection with her Jade Eyes.
If so, she wanted to have it. However, it was kept by the museum, and she couldn’t easily get it even if she paid money for it. She could only turn to Leng Shaoting for help.
Without delay, Gu Ning took out her phone and called Leng Shaoting. Because of anxiety and excitement, her body was slightly shaking.“Shaoting, are you free now? Can you come to the jade exhibition area? I need your help,” said Gu Ning anxiously.
Hearing that, Leng Shaoting thought that Gu Ning was in trouble and he was worried about her.
“Sure, I’ll be right there,” said Leng Shaoting and hung up the call. He told Jing Yunyao that Gu Ning needed his help, and Jing Yunyao decided to go to see Gu Ning with him.
Since Jing Yunyao couldn’t remember anything else here, there was no need for them to stay anyway.
Before long, Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao met Gu Ning at the jade exhibition area, and they noticed her abnormal condition with a simple glance.
“Ningning, are you alright?” Both Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao were worried.
“I’m fine.” Gu Ning did her best to calm herself down when she saw Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao’s worried expression, then she explained. “I’m strangely attracted to this Jade with Dragon Phoenix Cloud Pattern, and I want to have it. Shaoting, can you help me with that? Can we directly buy it or exchange it with another valuable antique?”
There were many antiques in Gu Ning’s telepathic eye space, and some were more valuable than the Jade with Dragon Phoenix Cloud Pattern.
“No problem.” Leng Shaoting agreed without hesitation. He didn’t ask further about it, and thought that Gu Ning simply liked it.
Jing Yunyao, however, thought that it couldn’t be that simple reason, but she didn’t ask more about it either.
Leng Shaoting called Jiang Zhongyu afterwards.
Jiang Zhongyu was the previous curator of the National Museum, and the leader of the Palace Museum was his student and was promoted to the position by him, so Leng Shaoting turned to Jiang Zhongyu for help.
After Leng Shaoting told Jiang Zhongyu that Gu Ning wanted the Jade with Dragon Phoenix Cloud Pattern, Jiang Zhongyu promised to settle it for them with alacrity.
In a few minutes, Leng Shaoting received Jiang Zhongyu’s reply and the leader agreed to give them the jade, but they had to talk with him about how to get it.
Gu Ning was relaxed when she heard the answer. Actually, if the leader of this museum refused to give them the jade, she would steal it on her own, because she felt that it was too important for her to lose it.
About several minutes later, a young couple walked into the jade exhibition area. However, when they saw Leng Shaoting, they looked surprised.
There was obvious admiration in the woman’s eyes towards Leng Shaoting.
The man, on the other hand, showed disdain afterwards and said in an acerbic tone, “Oh, isn’t this our old classmate, Leng Shaoting? We haven’t seen you for ages!”
After that, he walked to Leng Shaoting and continued, “How are you? What do you do now?” It was obvious that he didn’t know Leng Shaoting’s family background.
Although they were old classmates, Leng Shaoting always kept a low profile and not many outsiders were aware of his real identity. Moreover, Leng Shaoting spent a short time in the university and seldom socialized with other people, so he didn’t know many of the classmates back then.
Xu Jinchen was an exception. Xu Jinchen also kept his family background a secret, so not many people knew his real identity either.
Gu Ning knew the woman must be Leng Shaoting’s admirer when she saw her look at Leng Shaoting. Gu Ning squinted, but said nothing for the time being.
Jing Yunyao remained silent too, because there was no need for her to be involved in it.
Leng Shaoting stayed calm when the man disdained him. He had already forgotten who he was and thought that they might have gone to the same university before.
“Who are you?” asked Leng Shaoting.
Hearing that, the man was embarrassed. To his astonishment, Leng Shaoting already forgot him. He refused to believe it, so he thought that Leng Shaoting was pretending.
“What? You don’t remember me? We went to the same university. Do you live a hard life now so you don’t dare to admit it?” said the man.
The man was quite arrogant. His family was very rich and had over a billion yuan in assets. And although there were many rich people in the capital, there were more poor people in this big city.
Leng Shaoting didn’t bother to answer his question, which made the man believe he was right.
The woman obviously had the same idea as the man, so she showed dislike in her eyes afterwards.
“Leng, did you forget me too?” asked the woman. Her tone was quite unkind, because she didn’t think that Leng Shaoting could forget her.
