Chapter 443: Huang Family Heirloom

"...What?" Huang Mingyue's expression changed. That jade pendant was in their family for generations! And it was passed down all the way to Huang Muyang.

And it was lost like that? She couldn't believe it.

"Dad, What would happen if mom finds out about this?" Huang Muchen grabbed his head. He and his daughters may be alright with him losing it. But what about his wife?

"Shhh!" Huang Muyang quickly quieted them, "Of course, she must not know about this. I will die if she finds out." Death was the only thing that would await him if his wife found out.

"Hehe, don't worry, I will get it back. It's only with the brat for a couple of days." Huang Muyang was planning to challenge Lu Chen to get back his pendant.

"Who did you lose it to, grandfather?" Huang Mingyue asked.

"To a brat around your age. It was a fair battle, and he beat me in chess." Without Lu Chen here, Huang Muyang could begrudgingly admit to it.

You bet our family heirloom on a chess match? The two adults were shocked by how he lost it in the most ridiculous way.

"What's the person's name?"

Huang Muyang revealed, "The kid's name is Lu Chen."

"Lu Chen." That name sounds familiar.

...

At home, Lu Chen looked at the two pendants on the table. One was a bright white jade, while the other was an imperial green one. Lu Chen looked at the latter,

The green on this jade was a very emerald color. The brightness was incredible too. The carving of the phoenix was vivid and clear. There was a symbol too,

It's half. Only half of the symbol was there.

"Elder Wu, can you come here?" Lu Chen called out to Elder Wu. And he entered Lu Chen's room,

"What is it, young master?"

"How good are you at jewelry?"

"I know a good amount."

"Can you tell me how much this is worth?" Lu Chen handed the jade pendant to Elder Wu. And when he did, Elder Wu's expression turned blank.

"Elder Wu. is some- Woah!" Elder Wu dropped the pendant out of his hand! And Lu Chen quickly caught it.

Elder Wu quickly calmed down, "I thought my eyes deceived me. How could you have the imperial jade pendant."

"I do have it, Elder Wu." Lu Chen said as he showed it to him again.

"..." A moment of silence. But then Elder Wu screamed, "Why do you have this, young master?!" The calm and serene expression broke. One of surprise replaced it.

"You know what it is?"

"That's none other than the Huang family's heirloom."

"Hah?!" This time, it was Lu Chen's turn to be shocked.
