Chapter 301 - 301 301 Evil Jade

301: Chapter 301 Evil Jade 301: Chapter 301 Evil Jade With a flash of azure in the depths of his eyes, Gu Zhiqi moved his finger from Zhou Qingyan’s chin up to her collar.

Gu Mengyang watched Gu Zhiqi’s movements, thinking he was about to strip her clothes off, and just as he was about to ask if he should leave, he saw Gu Zhiqi straighten up with a jade pendant in his hand.

At the moment, Gu Zhiqi was pinching the cord, slightly raising it before his eyes, and staring intently at the jade pendant.

Gu Mengyang found the jade pendant quite familiar, probably because Zhou Qingyan often wore it.

“Is there something wrong with this jade pendant?” Gu Mengyang said as he walked over to Gu Zhiqi.

“Stay back,” Gu Zhiqi glanced at Gu Mengyang and said.

Hearing this, Gu Mengyang knew there was something wrong with the jade pendant and stopped in his tracks.

Placing the jade pendant in his palm, Gu Zhiqi took out a pen from his pocket and drew a small sealing formation on it.

After hiding the formation, Gu Zhiqi turned to look at Gu Mengyang and asked, “Are you familiar with her?”

Upon hearing this, Gu Mengyang was silent for a few seconds before speaking, “Not really, but I am quite familiar with her father.” Thinking that Gu Zhiqi didn’t know who his teacher was, he added, “My teacher is Zhou Qingyan’s father.”

Gu Zhiqi “…”

Without a word, he just raised his eyelids, his expression slightly strange as he stared at Gu Mengyang.

Feeling a bit creeped out by her gaze, Gu Mengyang took two steps back, “What’s wrong?”

“If this jade was given to her by her father, he wouldn’t just tell you its origin; he’d get rid of you straightaway,” Gu Zhiqi said, turning her head and looking meaningfully at Gu Mengyang.

That expression was as if she had already seen the scene of him being dealt with.

Gu Mengyang “…That can’t be.”

His teacher was a frail scholar.

Moreover, Gu Mengyang trusted his teacher’s character.

His teacher was upright and just, if this jade truly had issues and he knew about it, he would definitely make Zhou Qingyan throw this jade pendant away immediately.

Gu Zhiqi didn’t say anything more, just raising her eyebrows and giving Gu Mengyang a look.

That look was all it took; Gu Mengyang understood without needing her to speak.

Seeing Gu Zhiqi’s expression, Gu Mengyang didn’t bother explaining further, and even abandoned the idea of asking his teacher.

Since the jade pendant was still on Zhou Qingyan, his teacher probably didn’t know the inside story and likely didn’t know the origin of the jade either.

“Is it really related to this jade pendant?

What exactly is this jade pendant?” Gu Mengyang asked while looking at the jade pendant in Gu Zhiqi’s hand.

“This jade pendant is an Evil Jade, specifically used to absorb other people’s destiny,” she replied.

“So, it was this jade that absorbed my destiny?” Gu Mengyang furrowed his brows slightly and stared at the jade pendant.

“Yes,” Gu Zhiqi nodded lightly and hummed in affirmation.

“Does she know what this jade pendant does?” Gu Mengyang asked, his voice a bit grave, looking at Gu Zhiqi.

Although asking out loud, he had a rough guess in his mind.

Listening to Gu Mengyang’s question, Gu Zhiqi curled her lips and looked up at him, “What do you think?”

Seeing this, Gu Mengyang fell silent.

As he didn’t reply, Gu Zhiqi continued, “This jade hasn’t just absorbed your destiny, but the destiny of everyone within two meters of it too, and there’s more…” she said, and then Gu Zhiqi suddenly looked up at Gu Mengyang, “She has a charmed life, do you know that?”

Gu Mengyang nodded, he was aware of that.

Thinking of something, Gu Mengyang looked up and asked Gu Zhiqi, “Is her charmed life related to this jade?”
