Chapter 2699: Chapter 2635: Don’t Look Down on Others
But when he received Chiang Xiao’s call this morning and knew that Ding Fu was still alive, and that the ruby pendant was still intact, Jiang Shiheng changed his mind.
The fake pendant was put back around Lu Shuangshuang’s neck.
This would deliver a more severe blow to the Lu Family.
Lu Junyou reached out to snatch the gemstone pendant, but Sun Han stepped forward and blocked him.
He watched as Jiang Qiuyan handed the pendant to Jiang Shiheng, his fist clenching secretly.
Indeed, after the Jiang Family found Lu Shuangshuang first, everything spiraled out of their control.
Previously, they always held the upper hand, but now they were entirely passive, feeling as if they were being pursued by the Jiang Family.
How did all this happen?
For so many years, they had always been in a favorable position.
Jiang Shiheng said, "Our ruby can be turned into a ring. Let’s see if Miss Lu’s can do the same."
In fact, the moment he held it, he already knew the difference. Without comparison, this ruby also looked quite good in quality, but in his opinion, Lu Shuangshuang’s was not as good as the one from the Jiang Family; otherwise, how could theirs serve as a token?
If its quality could be easily found, what’s the point?
His fingers twisted the two smaller gemstones slightly, but they didn’t budge at all.
Jiang Shiheng raised the pendant and chuckled lightly, "Look, this one can’t be split open at all."
"What? So, the ruby Lu Shuangshuang has been wearing all this time isn’t ours, but a fake?" Fourth Master Jiang exclaimed in disbelief.
Fake, it turned out to be fake!
"Then, where’s the real one?" Fourth Madam Jiang couldn’t help but ask.
Jiang Shiheng said, "The real one, of course, was returned to me when I called off the engagement with Miss Lu back then."
"So, you really did call off the engagement with Lu Shuangshuang? And it was twenty years ago?" Fourth Master Jiang and the others looked utterly incredulous.
So, all these days, they’ve been considering Lu Shuangshuang as Xiao Sixth’s fiancée. What does this mean?
Old Master Lu abruptly looked at Lu Junyou, giving him a deep look.
Lu Junyou said in a deep voice, "Since the Sixth Young Master insists that this isn’t the Jiang Family’s token, that it’s fake, could we ask the Sixth Young Master to bring out the original ruby? Could you let us see what the Jiang Family’s ruby really looks like?"
"Of course, that’s no problem. However, that ruby is with my family. I’ll have someone bring it over so you can see it."
In fact, after Chiang Xiao finished the call, she was already preparing to hand it over to Ding Haijing. Since he was going to send Ding Fu back to the Jiang Family, he might as well take the ruby back with him.
Even if it takes a few more days, it doesn’t matter. Can the Lu Family find an identical ruby now? Even if they do, they wouldn’t know the craftsmanship of turning it into a ring.
"Xiao Sixth, did you learn some nonsense while wandering outside all these years?" Old Master Lu suddenly said coldly: "You say this isn’t the Jiang Family’s engagement token, so it isn’t? When you gave the token back then, did you mention any hidden secrets in the gemstone? Who knows if you just found another one now to mess around?"
Old Master Jiang’s face darkened.
"Old Lu, saying such things is meaningless!"
