During this period of time, Zhang Lan was not happy.

  This was because blacksmith Wang was a bit lazy. Although the two of them were working together in this small restaurant, most of the time, blacksmith Wang would go out to gamble. Sometimes, he would stay out all night.

  Zhang Lan did not want to work as well, but if she did not work, she would have no source of income.

  Other than this, there was another thing that made Zhang Lan even more depressed.

  Previously, because she was infatuated with blacksmith Wang’s manliness, Zhang Lan gradually realized that blacksmith Wang liked to hit people during making love.

  Her body was bruised and purple. Although it wasn’t serious, it would hurt when she touched it.

  Zhang Lan had told blacksmith Wang about this several times. Previously, blacksmith Wang would still coax her. However, after a few times, blacksmith Wang straight up slapped her in the face.

  Zhang Lan was stunned.

  Zhang Lan was very depressed. She already had the intention to leave blacksmith Wang. When Bai Weiyang suddenly came looking for her, she was stunned.

  Bai Weiyang looked at this small restaurant with thick smells of fumes and oil. The grease on the table had not been washed, and the dishes were a little yellow.

  She frowned and said to Zhang Lan rudely, “Come out, let’s talk!”


  After saying that, Bai Weiyang walked out in her high heels.

  Zhang Lan was very displeased when she heard Bai Weiyang’s commanding tone. Moreover, she was still working. How could she go out just like that?

  However, she didn’t want to completely ruin the relationship with Bai Weiyan. Not to mention that if Zhang Lan wanted to leave blacksmith Wang, she would have to get money from Bai Weiyang.

  Zhang Lan thought for a moment, then walked to the restaurant’s lady boss and said, “Big sis, I have something to do. I’m going out for a moment. I’ll be back soon.”


  “You’ll be back soon. Then why are you going out?” The lady boss was chubby. She hated people like Zhang Lan who had a bit of beauty and went to sleep around with others.

  She had heard from her man that Zhang Lan and blacksmith Wang were not husband and wife at all. In her hometown, she still had a man and a retarded son.

  Tsk tsk, what a shameless woman!

  Zhang Lan heard this and held back her anger. She said, “Big sister, I really have something to do!”


  “Who knows if it’s something shameful or not! Heh, go on, go on. But if you don’t come back in more than an hour, your salary will be deducted for one day!” The lady boss snorted and said.

  Zhang Lan gritted her teeth and cursed the fat woman in her heart. However, she still nodded with a smile before turning around and walking out.

  Bai Weiyang stood under a willow tree on the opposite side of the road. Because she was in a bad mood, she became even angrier when he saw Zhang Lan dawdling for so long before coming over.

  When Zhang Lan walked up to her, Bai Weiyang said, “Why did you take so long to come over? You might as well come over tomorrow!”


  Zhang Lan was already full of anger at the boss lady. When she heard Bai Weiyang’s words, she couldn’t hold it in anymore.

  “It hasn’t been long. It hasn’t even been an hour.”


  “How much longer do you want?” Bai Weiyang snorted coldly, then frowned and said, “Let’s forget about this matter. I have something important to ask you. Have you seen an oval-shaped jade pendant?”


  “What jade pendant?” Zhang Lan looked at Bai Weiyang in a daze.

  In fact, Bai Weiyang had always looked down on Zhang Lan. She was even ashamed that this woman was actually her biological mother. If she wasn’t too worried about her identity being exposed, she wouldn’t have come to look for Zhang Lan.

  She took a deep breath and suppressed her irritable mood. Then, she said in a deep voice, “When I was born, did you see a jade pendant beside Xie Luan? Or to put it another way, was there an oval-shaped jade pendant on Gu Yan’s body at that time?”


  Jade pendant, jade pendant.

  Seeing Bai Weiyang’s expression, Zhang Lan racked her brains.

  Suddenly, she looked up.
