Lu Jingxing listened to Wanyun complaining. "You gave her a jade bracelet worth nearly ten thousand taels of silver?"
Wanyun said, "That Bangle Bracelet is meant for young maidens. Now that I'm married, it's not suitable for me to wear. Yongjia is also discussing marriage prospects. I figured since Shi Rou is my cousin, I might as well give it to her. I never expected her to treat me this way."
"I have to get it back. When Xing'er and Yue'er are older, I can give it to them instead!"
Lu Jingxing chuckled. "Who ever heard of taking back a birthday gift?"
"I'm taking it back," Wanyun insisted. "Besides, she probably scorns my gift anyway."
Lu Jingxing relented and said to the driver, "Turn around. To the Shi family's residence."
...
「The Shi Residence.」
Shi Rou hugged Rong Ju, her face streaming with tears. "Mother, I don't want to go to prison! If I do, my life will be ruined! Please, go beg Uncle, ask him to save me!"
