10 jade pendant

For Evelyn, the day passed really slowly. She has nothing to do beside having multiple thoughts.

She felt tired, thinking about her past, and her future. She had never had real experience about the outside world. She escaped to gain her freedom but at this point she didn't even know what she wanted in life.

But one thing is for sure that she didn't want to live like in the past, she is going to live fully, at least for a month.

The sun set and people in mansion start preparing dinner. She has made some friends, she talked with them and now she is again sitting leisurely in the sofa.

In her mind she is thinking,'what animosity they have for television that they don't have in this huge mansion.

Today she didn't want to have dinner with that man, so she asked to serve her earlier saying she is really hungry.

Butler didn't said anything, also even if he asked her if she want to wait for his boss, he knew, his boss never come back on regular time.

Seeing delicious food in front of her, Evelyn enjoyed every bit of it thinking today might be her last day here. She didn't know if she will have anything to eat after leaving this place.

After dinner, aunt Zhang has made her asome sweets. So though she wanted to go to her room earlier to avoid that man, as there was still time for him to come from work , she decided to enjoy it on living room, seating in the sofa.

At the sam time she was enjoying her deserts, she saw someone entering the house. It was none other than the boss man and his sullen looking face, right hand.

They were discussing something but upon seeing her they stopped.

' did they really think she is going spy on them' she mentally rolled her eyes.

Liam after giving her looks quietly retreated to his room which is on the west wing second floor.

Actually, Evelyn felt quite grateful that he retreated because he always have her a look as if he wanted to chew her alive.

She was also quite baffled that the person in front of her, despite being so rich, is so alone. He noticed, nobody would seat with during dinner. She also felt bashful, at least she is qualified to be able to accompany him.

Lu yichen just looked at her blatantly, she, who is about to be interrogated but still is having her desert without fear, in front of him.

It is really hard to know what she wanted from him. Seeing her enjoying, he does not have a heart to disturb her by interrogating now.

" thirty minutes" Evelyn looked at him confused what he is saying.

Seeing her not understanding him,he elaborate,"I will give you 30 minutes to arrange your thoughts. After that meet me in the study room"

He was used to saying few words to his subordinates because he always appears impatient if they do not understand.

But, surprisingly, he is again explaining her and there is impatience.

"But I don't know where the study room is" she looked at him helpless.

"Come to my room then, you should be very familiar" he replied sarcastically.

If not for him being sarcastic, that sentence is really immoral. She didn't argue and agreed.

Thirty minutes later, she knocked the door of his room , second time in a day. This time, the opened in just few knocks.

"Follow me" he was already freshened up and wearing casual clothes. He walked ahead while she follows him.

Lu yichen, wanted to interrogate in his study for two reasons. One, it will be intimidating, second, he wanted to she her reaction. There was lots of things in his study.

His study was in the opposite side of his room, a little to the east side which is not far.

His study has security system which needed a password. They both entered the room, the room has sofa on both sides, the study table and his chair. That's it.

He sat in the sofa and indicated for to seat opposite him.

For Evelyn, this study room is really like gloomy place where the soul resides in. There was only sofa and some files in the room but has a strong security. She is not stupid to think, there is nothing more.

If she is not wrong, then there must be some hidden door that will lead to a secret room.

Though she is really curious to uncover the secret, she did not look elsewhere, lest he will suspect her again.

"Start" lu yichen instructed her to speak while looking intently at her.

Evelyn didn't speak, but she took out something from her pocket and presented it to him.

Lu yichen looked at the thing she was presenting, it was a pendant, if he was not wrong, the jade pendant.

He looked at her deeply, though there was many probabilities in his mind, that was either her being poor innocent or spy. Now that she carries something that can be really valuable, he didn't know what to think.

As he was not taking, she explained him, "this, is something really valuable that I wear all the time, I will give it to you."

"And in return what do you want"

"Nothing much, let me stay for some time" she smiled sheepishly.

"Do you think I lack wealth and this kind of jade" he asked again.

"No, no, I am just giving it to you as insurance, I am not harmful, the day I am living I will take it back" she explained

" I am not here to discuss some bribe, just answer what is your motive in coming here" lu yichen did not want her off topic things.

"Really you misunderstood, I was running away from someone and I got here accidentally. You should know this place is really secluded, so I thought hiding here." She is really innocent yet she have to explain alas it is his home and she has to comply.

"Then how did you enter this place without even getting noticed by cameras " he voiced his doubt.

" I jumped the wall and there was many Blindspot , so I came undetected. It's your security departments fault, they should have checked about blindspot and the wall, if you really want security, you should wire a current." She even suggested him.

"How do you know about blindspot then. And can anyone jump the high 2 meter." There was no way it should be possible for her right.

"Oh, hehe there is tree beside the wall, the one branch leads to middle of outside the wall. I am good at climbing tree" she laughed as she was thinking, she was lucky while climbing the wall, now it has become a problem to explain.

"As for the Blindspots , umm I am really good at computer. If you let me stay, I can help you for something really important." She promised.

"Even if I believe all this, why would you want to stay, when you are clearly rich." Lu yichen know something about jade.

The jade was small,emeralds green in a tear drop shape,according to his knowledge thought the jade is small it should be rare and worth a lot. Even the chain was made of pure white gold.
