Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 1341: Chapter 1341: There Must Be a Story Here

Her preliminary estimate for the value of the jade bracelet was one hundred and thirty thousand!

To her surprise, Lin Qiushu offered one hundred and eighty thousand, which truly shocked An Hao!

”Deal,” she said, accepting the offer instantly.

At the time, it was already an exorbitant price!

”Great. Since you can accept this price, let’s settle on it. After all, the amount is not small, and I cannot withdraw it from the bank in one day. So, give me some time. How about I pay you in full within five days?”

”Sure, no problem,” An Hao agreed.

”Then this bracelet... If you trust me, may I keep it in my possession for now?” Knowing it was against the rules, Lin Qiushu still couldn’t bear to ask Wapi, who seemed so fond of it, to hand over the bracelet again.

”This...” An Hao hesitated, looking into Lin Qiushu’s eyes.

All she saw was a gaze like a limpid spring, clear to the bottom, without any hint of vile intentions or desires, so she nodded in agreement.

”Is this proper?” Qin Jian, recalling the old lady’s earlier behavior, was doubtful. ”You can gather the money, and we can make the exchange in five days. I think it’s better if we keep the bracelet in our hands for now.”

No sooner had he finished speaking than the old lady pushed open the door and walked out of the rest area. She returned the bracelet to An Hao’s hands, ”Come back here in five days. We’ll trade money for the bracelet then!”

”That works,” An Hao agreed.

”I apologize for what happened just now. It was my lapse of composure! I, the old lady, got too excited upon seeing this jade bracelet, which led to what happened,” the old lady expressed her regret.

”It’s all right, really. So that’s settled. I will come back in five days.” After finishing her sentence, An Hao stood up, said goodbye to Lin Qiushu, and then left the store.

On her way, An Hao was silent the entire time.

”What’s the matter? Do you feel unwell?” Seeing An Hao’s silence, Qin Jian was worried that the old lady’s outburst had frightened her.

”No, it’s not that,” An Hao turned her head to look at Qin Jian sitting beside her and said, ”Don’t you find it odd? The way Lin Qiushu and that elderly person reacted to the bracelet is really puzzling...”

”Indeed. I noticed,” Qin Jian had already seen all the changes in their expressions and the signals in their eyes, ”There is definitely something strange between them. Therefore, that’s why I suggested you take the bracelet back. However, the bracelet wasn’t switched, was it?”

”Shouldn’t be, right?” An Hao examined the bracelet closely several times, then shook her head, ”I don’t think it has been swapped. Let’s take a gamble! I wouldn’t recognize it either way.”

Although she said this, An Hao somewhere trusted Lin Qiushu.

She had once doubted Lin Qiushu’s motives, but now she had dismissed her suspicions toward her. An Hao had an indescribable feeling about this woman.

She felt Lin Qiushu might not be a bad person!

She had plenty of money and wouldn’t deny her the small amount for a bracelet.

”There must be some story behind this bracelet,” Qin Jian reasoned.

”Probably,” An Hao also sensed it, ”This jade bracelet belonged to Uncle Qin. Could it be that Lin Qiushu and the Qin Family have some connection?”
