Xu Chunliang looked at the necklace and found a note inside the jewelry box. He unfolded it and read: A word is worth a thousand gold.
Xu Chunliang couldn't help but laugh. Mo Han was subtly hinting at his attempt to make a deal for the word on the dragon bone. Was 29 million too cheap? But the fact that Mo Han was willing to give him such an expensive necklace showed her sincerity on the matter.
Xu Chunliang gave her a call, and after a few rings, it got connected.
Mo Han said, "Did you receive the gift I sent you?"
Xu Chunliang toyed with the "Tears of the Stars": "It's too expensive. I can hardly accept it!"
Mo Han said, "You can accept it. President Luan said there's no price that could replace his life."
Xu Chunliang replied, "This makes me seem greedy since I've asked for so many favors owing to his life."
Mo Han said, "You should keep it. I had someone check, and this necklace is considered an ill omen. If I keep it, it might bring me unnecessary trouble."
