Meng Shao, you have today too

Chapter 58 The Vanishing Pendant

The sleeping Meng Zexiao looked like an obedient child, curled up on one side breathing evenly, looking quiet and harmless.Kong Lingxin stared at him intently for a while, but there was always a voice in her heart reminding her to keep ringing the alarm bells. He might kill her own sister if he killed her!

After returning home, Meng Zexiao collapsed on the bed and began to sleep soundly. Kong Lingxin tentatively asked him to take a bath before going to bed, but he covered his ears with a pillow like a child, as if he thought Kong Lingxin was too noisy.

Kong Lingxin stood on the edge of the bed and looked at him angrily—whether he likes to wash or not!
Then Kong Lingxin took off the natural violet jadeite bead chain she was wearing on her wrist and put it in the jewelry box. At the same time, she thought of the natural violet jadeite Miluo Buddha pendant that they mentioned to her sister when they were in the old house of the Meng family. I didn't find this object when I was looking for my sister's belongings. Could it be that my sister is hiding in a corner that is not easy to detect?
While Meng Zexiao was sleeping, Kong Lingxin searched for a while in the cabinet in the room lightly, but he never found the pendant.

Then Kong Lingxin turned to the study. In this big house, there were only these two places where her sister's personal belongings were stored. However, after searching every corner of the study, Kong Lingxin did not find the shadow of the pendant.

Maybe it was placed in Kong's house!
Seeing that it was still early, Kong Lingxin called Lu Fang again and asked her if she knew about the natural violet Mirafo pendant.

Hearing Kong Lingxin's question, Lu Fang was a little surprised. She asked Kong Lingxin back, "You mean you also have a violet bead chain of the same color?"

Kong Lingxin replied: "Yes, my mother gave it to me. This is the only thing I brought from home to City B."

Lu Fang thought for a long time before saying: "Yes, your sister does have a Mirov pendant. When your adoptive father brought your sister back to City B to raise her from the hospital, your mother gave this pendant as the only token. Why are people from the Meng family so interested in something so ordinary?"

Kong Lingxin was also puzzled. It stands to reason that according to the reaction of the Meng family, the violet jadeite of her and her younger sister should be a very valuable item handed down from their ancestors. It was so difficult when they were hospitalized, and their mother could have sold these items and bought them later. Paying hospitalization and medical expenses, my sister doesn't need to be raised by Kong Changdong and his wife.And the lives of the two of them have been very tight these years, and selling the bead chains left around can improve a lot, and the fees for her kindergarten education will not be paid off after she has worked for two years.

Even if the emeralds are valuable, they are not worth as much as the antiques displayed in the living room of the Meng family. Why didn't Meng Haoquan let himself wear them?

Lu Fang said that since her younger sister married into the Meng family, she had never seen that violet jadeite pendant again, nor had she heard her sister mention to them that Meng Haoquan did not allow her to wear it. Lu Fang did not know where the objects were stored by her sister.

This incident shrouded Kong Lingxin like a mystery. He wanted to unravel the mystery, but found that the front was covered in thick fog, and he couldn't see the direction at all.

Kong Lingxin is still unwilling to give up. Although she has been able to memorize her sister's diary by heart, in order to unravel the mystery in her heart, she still looks through her sister's diary and tries to find clues from it.

However, she searched through this diary, and she deliberated every word related to Meng Haoquan and Yang Shanshan, but she never saw her description about the pendant.

What's going on here?
Kong Lingxin ran downstairs to find Mrs. Qi, and asked, "Sister-in-law Qi, I used to wear a natural violet emerald Mirafo pendant around my neck. I didn't know where I put it before. Today, when I went back to the old house, my parents mentioned me. Just remembered, do you still remember such a thing?"

Hearing the second young lady's question, Mrs. Qi looked around, then looked at Kong Lingxin, and then said in a low voice, "Second young lady, don't you remember? Last Mid-Autumn Festival, you and the second young master went back to the old house for dinner. The master saw you Wearing that thing felt old-fashioned, so I reprimanded you a few words. The second young master was not feeling well that night, so the wife didn't let you come back. You stayed in the old house for the night. The next morning, you said that your violet emerald pendant was missing Yes. At that time, the eldest mistress hadn’t gone to work in the company, and she was mainly helping his wife manage the servants at home. Because of this, the eldest mistress even quarreled with you, saying that you thought the servant’s hands and feet were dirty and took your things—— "

"Ah?" Kong Lingxin was very surprised. She could imagine how embarrassed her sister was when Yang Shanshan called all the servants together to search her body when her sister said something was missing. My sister hated it to the bone.

Mrs. Qi looked at Kong Lingxin with a complicated expression, and said after a while: "Actually, it's really hard to say. The servants in the Meng family are all educated and educated. They have all undergone professional training. There are so many antique ornaments in the Meng family. Why is there only one pendant missing, there may be other things in it."

Kong Lingxin said: "Oh, I remembered. Sometimes people always have a subconscious memory to protect themselves, and they will selectively lose their memory when some unpleasant things happen. If I don't ask Mrs. Qi, I really can't remember it. , thank you. However, I really don't mean to suspect that the servant's hands and feet are not clean, Mrs. Qi, if you have a chance, you can tell the servants below."

Mrs. Qi smiled and said: "Of course we old people know that the second young lady is kind-hearted, but the tree wants to be quiet but the wind keeps on. After that incident, Mr. Meng asked the eldest young lady to go to work in the company, and the family affairs are mainly left to the old house. Mrs. Lin, the housekeeper, was in charge. However, some servants were fired because of this—”

Hearing Mrs. Qi's words, Kong Lingxin somewhat understood why her sister didn't record it in the diary. Maybe she felt too embarrassed and couldn't explain it clearly. Her thoughts on this matter were not particularly clear, so she didn't record it in the diary. .

However, as an outsider, Kong Lingxin has his own judgment. This matter must be Yang Shanshan's fault!
Thinking that when I was in the old house today, almost everything Yang Shanshan said was aimed at herself, and it was impossible for others not to hear it, but they didn't stop them face to face. Maybe they were all used to Kong Lingxin being the target of Yang Shanshan's bullying!

There is also something in Meng Zexiao's words, implying that if Meng Haoquan agrees, he can find out the mastermind behind the Internet hype—

I don't know if it's because of her younger sister, Kong Lingxin is naturally hostile to Yang Shanshan now, Kong Lingxin always feels that everything has something to do with Yang Shanshan.Also, Meng Zeting, a man full of artistic qualities, would fall in love with a woman like Yang Shanshan who is so utilitarian and powerful at first sight. How did this couple get together?

The more I think about it, the more useless the answer is, and the more I think about it, the more question marks I have in my mind.

Under the urging of Mrs. Qi, Kong Lingxin realized that it was very late, raised her head and glanced at the wall clock on the wall, and Kong Lingxin returned to the bedroom.

Meng Zexiao was still sleeping soundly. After a few days of comfortable days of sleeping alone in the same bed, Kong Lingxin was annoyed that not only did he not cherish those few days, but he would occasionally miss him!
Entering the bathroom with her pajamas, Kong Lingxin returned to her previous state of mind. She dared not take off her clothes until she was sure that the door was locked.

After Wansi left at noon, she saw Meng Zexiao in the study and didn't know when he would return to the bedroom. Because she didn't want Meng Zexiao to see her sleeping, Kong Lingxin suppressed her drowsiness and practiced martial arts in the gym on the fifth floor.

However, she had prepared for all of this, and had downloaded martial arts practice videos on her tablet in advance.Those basic movements couldn't be easier for her, but for the sake of caution, Kong Lingxin still made a beginner's posture with soft punches and feet.

Despite this, Kong Lingxin, who had no lunch break, still looked a little tired, and fell asleep in the bathtub unconsciously.

The water in this bathtub is at a constant temperature, and hot water will be added immediately after the water is slightly cold, so Kong Lingxin, who was sleeping, did not wake up because the water became cold.

I don't know how long I slept, but Kong Lingxin heard Meng Zexiao's knock on the door from outside the bathroom: "Open the door quickly! You would rather sleep in the bathtub instead of sleeping on the same bed with me!"

Kong Lingxin was startled, oh my god!How tired is it to fall asleep in the shower!

She came out of the water, wrapped in a bathrobe and walked barefoot to the door to open it for Meng Zexiao.

As soon as the door opened a crack, Meng Zexiao, who was still wearing daytime clothes, squeezed in.Kong Lingxin thought that he would reprimand her unreasonably as before.When she was ready to resist, Meng Zexiao didn't look at her at all, but went straight to the toilet and started to turn on the water.

Kong Lingxin was very embarrassed, it turned out that he was urgent to urinate.

After solving the urgent matter, Meng Zexiao took a look at Kong Lingxin: "If you don't go out after washing, then I will take a bath in front of you!"

Kong Lingxin, who had been standing at the door of the bathroom, ran out with her pajamas in her arms. Meng Zexiao was annoyed and funny when she saw Kong Lingxin who suddenly slipped faster than a rabbit.

Just when he was already undressed and ready to wash, Kong Lingxin returned to the door and said timidly, "Can you lock the door when you take a shower?"

Meng Zexiao asked, "Why?"

Kong Lingxin replied, "I want to get dressed."

Meng Zexiao said, "Whether I lock the door or not has something to do with your clothes?"

Kong Lingxin said: "Of course, what if you suddenly come out?"

Meng Zexiao roared out speechlessly: "You stupid woman, you are locked outside, if I want to come out to see you, will this lock work?"

Kong Lingxin muttered, "At least I feel a little psychologically comforted by locking it—"

But while talking to Meng Zexiao, Kong Lingxin had already put on his pajamas.
