689 Suspicion (4)

Xie Jingxing was not short of money, but he had already given her so much expensive jewelry. Did he have to specially buy a batch of gorgeous clothes for her to match these jewelry? Even if he bought them, she would find it troublesome to wear them.

After thinking about it, she felt that this jade bracelet was the least conspicuous one. There were needles hidden inside for her to use in critical moments, and it looked relatively simple.

While she was in a daze, Su Mingfeng’s expression darkened. Before Shen Miao could react, he grabbed her hand and said, “Sorry to offend you.”

Shen Miao subconsciously wanted to pull her hand back, but Su Mingfeng held it very tightly. Shen Qiu and Luo Ling’s eyes turned cold at the same time. Shen Qiu said, “Young Master Su, you’re too impetuous!”

Su Minglang widened his eyes. This was probably the first time he had heard someone say that his brother was impetuous.

However, Su Mingfeng quickly let go and cupped his hands at Shen Miao. “My apologies, Fifth Miss Shen.”

In the end, he did not do anything, so Shen Miao didn’t take it to heart. She just did not know what Su Mingfeng had discovered. The next moment, she heard Su Mingfeng ask, “Fifth Miss, may I ask where this tiger head bracelet came from?”

Shen Miao’s heart skipped a beat. Luo Tan and the others were dumbfounded. Su Mingfeng was a man, so why did he ask where the jewelry on a woman came from?

Even Su Minglang looked at Su Mingfeng strangely.

Su Mingfeng was unmoved. He still looked at Shen Miao seriously, as if he would not let her go today without getting an answer.

Shen Miao came back to her senses and smiled. “I bought it from a merchant who came from afar. He said that it’s an imported item. I didn’t expect Young Master Su to know it. Is this bracelet called the Tiger Head Bracelet?”

For a moment, a look of disappointment flashed across Su Mingfeng’s face, Then, he perked up and said, “That’s right. It’s called the Tiger Head Bracelet. Fifth Miss, are you willing to sell it to me?”

“Ahem.” Luo Tan choked on her saliva. The people in the capital were so strange. The handsome young man in front of her actually wanted to buy jewelry from a woman. It was said that some rich families had some strange fetishes. For example, some people liked to collect women’s undergarments, and some liked to put on women’s rouge. It seemed that Young Master Su liked women’s jewelry.

Su Minglang asked, “Brother, do you want to buy this tiger head bracelet for the girl you like?”

Hearing this, Luo Tan was enlightened. So it was not that he liked to wear jewelry himself, but he wanted to buy it for his beloved girl.

Shen Miao smiled and said, “After all, this is my personal jewelry. It’s not right for me to give or sell it to a man. Moreover, if Young Master Su wants to buy jewelry for the girl you like, you shouldn’t give her the jewelry I used. If Young Master Su wants, I know some good jewelry in the Treasure Pavilion in the capital. They’re much better than the one I have.”

At this point, if Su Minglang continued pestering Shen Miao, he would seem unreasonable.

Shen Qiu nodded and said, “That’s right.”

Su Mingfeng could only smile and say, “In that case, I won’t force Fifth Miss Shen.” After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Su Mingfeng brought Su Minglang to bid farewell to Shen Miao and the others.

Just as he was about to leave, Su Mingfeng suddenly thought of something. He looked at Shen Miao and hesitated for a moment before asking, “Fifth Miss, have you seen the Young Marquis of the Xie family?”
