Having regained a bit of strength, he slowly turned his head to look at his old father: "I had a dream, saying that if she wore an ancient jade from a thousand years ago, she would wake up!"
He came up with the most irrational excuse!
No sooner had he finished speaking than the old man leaning on a cane burst into curses: "Are you out of your mind? You believe in such a dream?"
Ou Mucen’s handsome face immediately darkened: "Will you give it to me or not?"
The old master: "..."
Bai Tingfang became anxious: "Mucen, mom knows you can’t bear to see her leave you, and I don’t want that either, but you can’t start fantasizing about things . You’re an adult, a rational person. How can you say such things?"
Ou Mucen stared coldly at her: "Who told you that I fantasized it? It was a high person in my dreams who told me. If you don’t give it to me, then I’ll just have to go with her."
Those words nearly killed the two old people on the spot with anger!
Could it be that their son was hit so hard by that woman’s death that he was no longer thinking clearly!
Bai Tingfang collected herself and the first thing that came to mind was just that. Suddenly looking at the son she had carried for ten months, she was overcome with sadness and ran out, covering her face.
The old master was no better off. Seeing his son, who had taken over his responsibilities and managed the Ou family business in perfect order, now speaking such words for a dead woman, his expression aged ten years in an instant.
"Fine, I’ll give you the ancient jade, but remember, Ou Mucen, you have a son, parents, and tens of thousands of employees at the company counting on you. You cannot do anything to disappoint them, understood?"
The man sitting on the sofa, upon hearing the agreement and having no intention of insisting for too long, softened his icy gaze: "If she lives, I naturally won’t abandon you all!"
Ou, the old master: "..."
In the end, he could only helplessly go upstairs and take out the set of ancient jade that had been sealed away for so many years from his secret chamber.
Ou Mucen had been waiting below and, seeing him bring it down, immediately snatched it to the table and opened it...
Indeed, as soon as the brocade box was opened, the cool fragrance wafted out like a breeze on a sweltering summer day, an instant relief. He just needed one look to feel the comfort and coolness throughout his body.
Jade Pendant, earrings, Pearl Flower...
It was exactly as described by that man.
He casually picked up an item, felt the special nature of this ancient jade, and asked, "Dad, where exactly did you get this? It’s said to be a burial item of the Han Dynasty royal family."
Hearing this, the old master’s face changed again: "How do you know it’s a burial item of the Han Dynasty royal family?"
Ou Mucen’s eyes flickered, before he corrected himself: "You had me take it to Japan for an exhibition, and someone recognized it."
"Is that so..." Hearing this, the old master’s expression eased once more. However, once his face relaxed, a touch of regret appeared.
Actually, when Bai Tingfang gave him the Jade Bracelet to take to Japan for the exhibition, she hadn’t told him about its origin. By the time he found out, he had already taken it to Japan.
