My Inner Thought is Exposed! The Villain Family Defy Their Fate!-Chapter 346 - 148: The Lost Jade Pendant

Yun Wanqing wrinkled her nose, sniffing hard, smelling very earnestly.

She always felt that the scent was very familiar, but she couldn’t recall it for the moment.

Just as she was about to give up on thinking hard, her gaze suddenly caught sight of a colorful jade pendant lying quietly in the corner beside the soft couch.

Her eyesight was good, and even from a distance, she could clearly see the patterns on that jade pendant.

[Huh, that jade pendant looks so familiar.]

[Oh, I remember, isn’t that the Seven-color Pi Xiu hanging on second brother’s clothes?]

[No, no, no, it should just look like second brother’s Seven-color Pi Xiu, how could second brother’s Pi Xiu appear here...]

Her inner voice suddenly stopped, and the next moment, Yun Wanqing’s eyes widened abruptly.

[Ah, no, it’s not just similar, that is second brother’s jade pendant, it even has his scent on it.]

[Speaking of which, the scent I found very familiar earlier but couldn’t recall, isn’t that the Moon Qilin Fragrance from second brother’s clothes?]

[Second brother’s jade pendant fell in the princess’s room, so, hehe, the princess slept until now, could it be that she and second brother, after being drunk, ...]

[No, no, no, there shouldn’t have been that, there’s no such smell in this room.]

[Second brother and the princess should have just slept purely...]

The musings of the little girl became increasingly outrageous, and Yun Wanyao couldn’t pretend not to hear even if she wanted to.

Her eyes involuntarily widened, her heart shook fiercely, as if a huge wave had been stirred up.

Taking advantage of the pause in Mo Zhaozhao’s meal, she took a deep breath and looked in the direction of Yun Wanqing’s gaze.

Sure enough, she saw a jade pendant in the corner beside the soft couch.

The distance was quite far, and her eyesight was not as good as Yun Wanqing, so she couldn’t tell whether it was Yun Wanye’s thing or not.

Meanwhile, Yun Wanqing continued to analyze the situation in her mind.

[The princess got drunk, second brother unexpectedly appeared, plus the previous reaction of that nanny, it seems Lu Huaixin’s matter has indeed been brought before the princess.]

[I said, second brother has been planning for so long, now that his pawn is pregnant, second brother wouldn’t not take action.]

[I just don’t know whether the princess is aware that the mastermind behind this is second brother.]

[...]

These inner voices, Yun Wanyao was not listening to a single word, her mind was fully occupied thinking about whether that jade pendant was Yun Wanye’s.

As if summoned, she hugged Yun Wanqing, got up from the chair, and walked in that direction.

Noticing her action, Mo Zhaozhao looked up, biting a pig’s trotter, and saw her looking as if she had lost her soul.

After watching for a bit and not understanding, she mumbled a sentence.

"Ah Yao, what are you doing?"

[Exactly, what’s sister going to do?]

[Sitting perfectly well, why pick me up and stand?]

Even Yun Wanqing realized something was wrong with her.

With two voices arriving one after another, Yun Wanyao was startled awake, stopped in her tracks, turned around to look at Mo Zhaozhao, and then at the little girl in her arms, only to suddenly realize her own behavior.

She hurriedly said, "Ah, nothing."

"Liar."

[Right, right, I also think sister is lying.]

Yun Wanyao: "..."

Little sister, why are you joining in the fun?

Oh well, I almost forgot, little sister loves to join in the fun.

She pouted, standing there blankly looking at the pendant, suddenly unsure whether to go over and confirm.

After finishing the pig’s trotter, Mo Zhaozhao picked up a shrimp dumpling, and when she turned around and looked at Yun Wanyao again, she saw her staring blankly at one spot.

Following her line of sight, Mo Zhaozhao vaguely saw a colorful object.

Not good!!!

Her chopsticks shook, and the shrimp dumpling that hadn’t reached her mouth fell to the ground. Mo Zhaozhao’s face changed dramatically, quickly tossed down her chopsticks, got up, and ran towards that thing.

At that distance, she couldn’t see very clearly either, but just based on that dazzling seven-color under the sunlight, she could be sure it was something of Yun Wanye’s.

There was a seven-color jade pendant hanging on his clothes for many years, which she had seen before.

After a few steps, bending down to pick it up, her heart almost jumped to her throat.

Sure enough, this was Yun Wanye’s...

Mo Zhaozhao trembled all over, blocking Yun Wanyao and Yun Wanqing’s line of sight, hiding the jade pendant in her hand with great guilt.

Yun Wanyao: "..."

[...]

[Speaking of which, the princess was eating just fine, how did she suddenly notice this pendant?]

Yun Wanqing was a bit confused, but she quickly thought of Yun Wanyao.

[Thinking about it, it should be because of elder sister.]

[Certainly, it was elder sister who saw it first, and because the princess was always paying attention to her, she discovered it as well.]

[But did elder sister recognize that it was second brother’s thing?]

[If elder sister did recognize it, then there will be a good show to watch.] 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

[Tsk, the princess’s subconscious reaction is this guilty, elder sister probably wouldn’t have no suspicions, right?]

"Uh, the maid was too careless and let this fall to the ground."

After hiding the jade pendant, Mo Zhaozhao stood up, trying to alleviate her guilt, she said with an awkward smile.

Unexpectedly, after her voice fell, several maids serving in the hall knelt down in unison, their voices filled with anxious fear.

"It’s our fault, we beg for your mercy, Your Highness~"

Mo Zhaozhao: "..."

She coughed and quickly said, "You all get up, I didn’t say I blame you. Well, even the best plan has its flaws, I’m not the petty kind, this matter won’t be blamed on you."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

The maids expressed their gratitude with trepidation.

The Yun sisters just watched Mo Zhaozhao putting on an act.

From all her reactions, Yun Wanyao was already sure in her heart that the jade pendant must be Yun Wanye’s just like Yun Wanqing said.

Otherwise, why would Mo Zhaozhao have such a big reaction? Why would she be so guilty?

She smiled and calmly probed.

"Princess, what is that? Is it a jade pendant? It looks very much like Yun Wanye’s pendant."

Hearing this, Mo Zhaozhao’s eyes twitched, almost losing her composure, panicking inside.

She wasn’t sure if Yun Wanyao was probing her or had already recognized that this thing was indeed Yun Wanye’s.

The more she thought, the more flustered she became, her lips trembled slightly, she awkwardly forced a smile, and said with trembling lips, "Uh, is it? Ah Yao might have seen it wrong?"

Ah ah ah ah...

After finishing speaking, Mo Zhaozhao was very frustrated, wishing she could slap herself a few times and take back what she said.

How could she say that?

She should have directly said, ’Even if things are the same in the world, there are plenty of them, let alone just looking similar, it’s not strange at all.’

Truly, the more guilty one is, the easier it is to make mistakes.

Sure enough, Yun Wanyao continued, her expression hard to read.

"Probably not, I’m not very sure either, could the princess let me have a look at your jade pendant?"
