The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress novel Chapter 847

Chapter 847: 330 regrets not having made the right move earlier, one wrong move in chess.

"Look at this?" Jiang Fulai glanced at the jade thumb ring that he wore.

The ring had an antiquated appearance, fashioned from vibrantly colored jade featuring a dragon pattern at the top.

It seemed gaudy, yet it looked unusually elegant in his hands.

Bai Lian snapped out of her reverie and noticed for the first time today that he was unexpectedly wearing a thumb ring, "No."

Jiang Fulai, as if he hadn’t heard her, took off the thumb ring from his other hand and placed it into Bai Lian’s palm, "Take a closer look."

The ring, a blend of green and purple, felt slightly cool.

Bai Lian played with it in her hand for a while.

Standing by the car, opening doors for the two of them, Ming Dongheng watched as Bai Lian fiddled with the ring in her hands, several times he thought it would fall to the ground.

His temples visibly twitched.

103.

Ji Heng’s embroidery stand was set up in the yard, the depiction of a beautiful woman completely stitched, the few strokes Jiang Fulai had left previously also remained on it, not looking out of place.

The Dean went straight to Shanhai Apartment after work.

At this moment, with his hands clasped behind his back, he bent over to examine the design Ji Heng drew for him.

A mandarin collared long robe with a 21-string zither subtly incorporated into the design; the mere sight of this design exuded an ancient majesty.

Ji Heng set down his drawing pencil and looked up at the rain outside.

The rain slanted down, hitting the glass in the courtyard of No. 103, leaving streaks of mottled water stains.

"This rain seems to be getting heavier," Ji Heng narrowed his eyes, picked up the tobacco pipe beside him, and methodically stuffed it with tobacco.

Next to him, Jiang He sat on the steps, hugging his white schoolbag, tilting his little head to read a comic book.

Old Hu placed a stack of nuts next to him, having peeled a small pile of walnuts and almonds for him to nibble on slowly.

The entrance of Shanhai Apartment.

Mu Yining drove down the road.

At the entrance, she saw a boy in the Jiangjing High School uniform, with a black schoolbag slung over one shoulder, his tall figure, black hair streaked with silver, handsome features that made passersby turn heads, including university girls sneakily taking photos with their phones.

Across from him stood a bald man in his thirties.

In the chilly weather, the man wore only a black short-sleeved shirt revealing tattooed arms, holding a lit cigarette, hardly looking like a decent person.

He was handing over two exquisitely crafted square iron boxes to Zhang Shize.

Bai Lian and her group, all exceptional students, Zhang Shize Mu Yining had also heard Ji Heng mention a few times, was doing well and planning to apply to the University of Political Science and Law.

Mu Yining quickly stopped the car at the entrance. She honked the horn, signaling Zhang Shize to get in.
