Sweet Wife in My Arms

Chapter 829: A Bad Premonition

He picked up the jade pendant with trembling fingers.
The jade looked a little worn and its design could not be considered as in-trend.
However, its purity had remained as time passed by.
It was ancient and unadorned but a little heavy.

The word ‘Lu’ was imprinted at the corner of the jade pendant.
Before it was engraved, that corner of the pendant was missing, making this jade pendant one of its kind.
When his sister disappeared back then, the jade pendant had went missing as well.

“Where is the letter?” Ye Chuji suppressed his raging emotions as he clenched the jade pendant tightly.
It seemed as if he had mentally broken down at that split second.

“Letter?” Sun Yuhan lowered her head down and smiled helplessly, “Mother told me to burn the letter after reading it.
She did not want anyone else to know about the personal backgrounds which was written inside.
I respect her, and I believe you do as well, right?”

Ye Chuji squinted his eyes and ran his gaze over Sun Yuhan’s body for some time, like a blade cutting through her enclosed chest before taking out the heart from within to examine its genuinity.

Sun Yuhan smiled and placed her hand behind her head.
She had some hair on her hand when she withdrew her hand.
She put those strands of hair on the table.

“My mum once said that she left some hair in the house.
You can use these to conduct a DNA test with the ones at home.”

She stood up after she finished talking.
She did not plan to get the jade pendant back from Ye Chuji’s hands as she knew that it would be hers some time in the future.
She could feel the terrifying penetrating power of Ye Chuji behind her as she walked out.
She was drenched in cold sweat.

Still, she straightened her back because things were going as planned.

Sacrifice was inevitable for her to become somebody.
Besides, she had nothing to lose anyway.
So, why not take a shot? Perhaps, she could win.
Meanwhile, her identity now was not sufficient to support her ever growing ambitions.

Ye Chuji held the jade pendant in his hand to the point that it almost melted into his palm.

He picked up the hair on the table.
Actually, he could almost be certain that Sun Yuhan would most probably be his younger sister, Ye Rong’s daughter.
When his younger sister was born, a master once said that Ye Rong had a bad fate.
Although she was born in an affluent family, she would wander about in a desperate plight.
The solution they had was to keep some of his sister’s hair at home so that her unfortunate fate could be suppressed.

However, they were wrong.
How could they determine a person’s whereabouts with some hair? Ye Rong disappeared in the end and they had no news about her until now.

They had been looking for her for more than 20 years without giving up.
Certainly, they had found many people who pretended to be her.
They had nothing to trace her down.
However, the main reason why they could identify whether the person they found was an imposter was all because of her hair that was left at home.

None of them had ever imagined that this hair that was supposed to suppress her unfortunate fate became their biggest hope in searching for her.

He stood up and slipped the jade pendant into his pocket.
Then, he picked up the hair on the table for a DNA verification.

Actually, he had the feeling that there was no need for further examination.

If Sun Yuhan was bold enough to come forward and let him examine it, she would have sufficient confidence and reasoning to support it.

Nevertheless, he needed the truth and proof of evidence.

Yan Huan flipped her hair in front of the mirror, wondering if she would be bald on a part of her head.
She was almost bald when she was filming ‘Before the Beginning’ but luckily that part of her scalp healed and her hair grew back too; or else, she would really turn bald.

She wondered who was that person who had absolutely no sense of decorum.
He pulled on her hair so hard that she did not know how many of them were plucked off; it was as if her scalp was about to be ripped off her head.

Lu Yi saw Yan Huan looking at her scalp in front of the mirror when he entered the room.
He suddenly looked serious as an unknown thought appeared in his head.

He walked forward and pulled her toward him.
Then, he flicked her hair as he said, “I told you not to simply touch it, why wouldn’t you listen?” He took the medicine on the table and applied it on Yan Huan’s scalp carefully.
She actually had a pretty bad laceration on her scalp.
Her hair around the injury was supposed to be cut off, so that the medicine could be applied properly.

However, he knew that it was impossible for her to cut her hair.
She cherished them so much.
He knew that she had not washed her hair for days because of the wound.

She could still endure not washing her hair for days, but it was impossible for her to cut off her precious hair.

Yan Huan could still feel the sting from her scalp, which meant that the wound had not healed yet.

“Why is it healing so slowly?” She could not help but grumble.

“You call this slow?” Lu Yi lowered his head and pinched her face.

“It has not even been two days.
How fast do you want it to be, hmm? Humans need some time to heal.
So, it is best that you stay here and not go anywhere in the meantime.”

Yan Huan touched her hair and went back to the bed.
However, she then turned around and walked toward Lu Yi.
She hugged his waist and pleaded, “Can you sleep with me? I am a little scared.”

“What’s wrong?” Lu Yi lowered his head and looked into her eyes.
He could not explain it, but she seemed anxious.

“I don’t know,” Yan Huan shook her head.
“I always feel like something is about to happen.”

Lu Yi caressed her hair; his thick brows furrowed deeply.
The first person he could think of was Su Muran, and…

Lu Qin.

Actually, Yan Huan was not the only one who was worried.
He was worried too, since she was almost turning 28 years old.
She did not make it past 28 alive in her first lifetime.

It was going to be alright.
Lu Yi patted her shoulder lightly, consoling her as he looked afar with a sharp and cold gaze.

In the meantime, in the Su Family, no one knew what happened on the inside.
Only the sound of rustling trees could be heard from outside the window, creating no tune or melody.

To someone who was passionate about it, it was music.
The same wails and howls might just be a mere breeze of wind for someone who could not care less about it.

The door outside creaked open.

There was not a tiny bit of light in the room.
The people who came in were familiar with the structure of the room.
They then opened the door with a bang.
