章節 1644: I’ll Make You Pay

"Yes." Kong Ming did not hesitate. "I was already wearing this jade pendant when my teacher took me in. No one's come looking for it after all these years, so there's not much point even if I continue to wear it—but this pendant is all I have."

Yaoyao mulled over his words.

Basically, he was saying that his family had left him the jade pendant, and he had waited many years for them to find him, but they had never shown up, so he had stopped hoping for their return. Also, this jade pendant was the only valuable thing he possessed.

Baoyu was still uncertain. "But this is yours…"

"It's yours now." There was no hesitation in Kong Ming's eyes as he replied.

Seeing that Baoyu was still doubtful, Yaoyao said, "Hurry up and keep it. He'll be yours soon anyway, so what's his is yours. Besides, this is his token of gratitude for you, so don't worry about it. Just keep it."
