Xia Shi just looked at me, but didn't say agree, nor did she say no. I naturally couldn't figure out what Xia Shi meant.

I didn't ask too much about how Xia Shi decided that it was naturally Xia Shi's own business. If I persuaded her more, it might even disturb Xia Shi's mind.

"That person just now..." Xia Shi hesitated for a while, as if she wanted to ask something.

"Do you think that person is strange?" I glanced at Xia Shi beside me.

"Yes." Xia Shi nodded.

Just now, Xia Shi watched the entire dispute between me and this middle-aged man. Xia Shi naturally knew that my conflict with him was caused entirely by Xia Shi himself, which made Xia Shi feel puzzled. Xia Shi couldn't understand why the middle-aged man had to get along with him alone, saying that he wanted to ask a few questions, but Xia Shi couldn't figure out what kind of questions this middle-aged man wanted to ask himself. After all, it was the first time Xia Shi met this person.

"To be honest, I'm still not sure where this person comes from." I shrugged my shoulders helplessly. Even though I had a fight with this middle-aged man, I still didn't know the depth of this person.

Of course, I am more clear that the other party will not be able to figure out my true strength, otherwise he would not have left like this.

What a cautious person.

"I don't know him either." Xia Shi looked at the direction where the middle-aged man left just now with a puzzled look. This incident always made Xia Shi feel confused, even now.

"I can see." I smiled at Xia Shi.

"Actually, I thought that this person was sent by your father Xia Huanghe's opponent, but now I don't think so. How can I find someone like this? And a master of this level can't be invited by just spending money. It seems that this person is not short of money."

When I said this, I took out the jade ring and watched it. This emerald was filled with a green luster in the sun, and it was really a top-notch one.

This can be regarded as my trophy today, right? I just took this emerald, and I felt a little uneasy.

After all, this thing is indeed quite precious. Did that middle-aged man really want it if he said he didn’t want it?

God knows if this middle-aged man deliberately pretends to be open-minded?

If this middle-aged man was secretly thinking about when and how to use what method to retrieve the jade ring, then I wouldn’t have a headache?

Letting experts of this level think about me in secret, even if they may not hurt me in the end, it will be tormenting enough.

Besides, the middle-aged man clearly stated before leaving that he would not leave so easily. He was still wandering around him for no reason. He couldn't say that when this guy couldn't figure it out, he would come up to make trouble. I really may not be able to bear it.

Xia Shi also focused on the emerald in my hand, and it seemed that Xia Shi was quite interested in this.

"Have you seen this?" I shook at Xia Shi with the jade ring in my hand and asked Xia Shi.

"No." Xia Shi shook her head and said.

"Just think it looks good."

I couldn't help but chuckled. If I told Xia Shi the value of this thing, I don't know what kind of expression Xia Shi would have.

But I finally didn't tell this. Doing so might make Xia Shi think I was showing off something to her.

"Do you like it? I gave it to you." I handed this jade ring named Qingyuan to Xia Shi.

Xia Shi couldn't help but be stunned, then shook her head at me and said, "I don't want it, it's not my thing."

"It's not mine, either." I replied.

"I don't want that person just now, so it's useless for me to take it. You can take it."

"Forget it." Xia Shi continued to shake her head. Xia Shi looked at the jade ring without any desire. It seemed that Xia Shi was just interested in its origin and did not want to take it for herself.

"You'd better keep it. I heard you talk just now. This thing seems to be quite valuable. It's easy to throw it away if you put it here, and it's easy to throw it away as a person." Xia Shi was embarrassed and secretly spitting out his bright red tongue when she said this. The atmosphere of talking between me and Xia Shi seemed to be gradually changing back.

"Okay." I didn't persuade him anymore.

"Then I'll keep it in there first. I just happened to want to find someone to find out the origin of this thing. I always feel that the origin of this jade ring is not simple."

The origin of this emerald is of course extraordinary, as can be seen from my mother's interest in it.

I also felt strange about this. This was when my mother taught me to recognize some antique cultural relics when I was very young. I remembered this very deeply at that time, so when the middle-aged man said the name of the jade ring, I suddenly recalled this incident.

Now I am very interested in things that have something to do with my mother. My mother has specifically mentioned this jade ring before. After so many years, this jade ring appeared in my hands. Is this just a coincidence? Or is it really a will in the dark?

Some people say that all the coincidences in the world can be explained with reasons, but this coincidence that looks like a coincidence can be explained?

Of course, I can't figure this out of thin air. It seems that it is necessary to figure out the origin of this jade ring called Qingyuan.

Thinking of this, I suddenly remembered that there were many books and documents in my mom's room that my mom was interested in before.

If I remember correctly, my mother was not interested in these antiques and cultural relics a long time ago, but gradually there were a lot of books on this aspect in my mother's room later.

When I had time, I also flipped through those books. But I was too young at that time and felt that even if I studied these things, I would not be of any use to me, so I just simply turned a few pages and gave up.

Thinking about it now, maybe the books left by my mom may be really useful to me.

"Xia Shi, please do me a favor, and help me find something." I said to Xia Shi without hesitation.

Xia Shi didn't ask me what I wanted to help me, and nodded and agreed directly.

I didn't hesitate and walked towards my mother's room that I had been locked by me.
