Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After hearing Ye Lengans words, a hint of hesitation appeared on Pang Tingtings face. She didnt know if she should take it out, because that item was now her only trump card. She was afraid that once she took it out, Ye Lengan would s.n.a.t.c.h it away, and she would really be in tears.
After all, Ye Lengan had not promised her anything so far. In fact, Ye Lengan hadnt even promised to help her. She was afraid she would end up with nothing in the end.
Ye Lengan could see Pang Tingtings hesitation. She was in no hurry and slowly said, Actually, you can take your time to think about it. Im not in a rush at all. Maybe you still need to go back and ponder it over. Lets talk after youve thought it through!
She didnt like empty talk, so if Pang Tingting wanted her to take action, she had to show some sincerity first. Otherwise, there would be nothing to discuss next.
No, Im willing to take it out. Seeing that Ye Lengan seemed about to leave, Pang Tingting became a little anxious. 1 can show you the item, but you have to promise me that after confirming, youll definitely help me.
She was at a disadvantage now and had no choice. So even if it was risky, she could only take out the item first.
After speaking, Pang Tingting took out a box from her bag and opened it. Inside was a very unique bracelet.
It was a platinum bracelet, but what made it especially unique was that it wasnt adorned with ordinary gemstones. Instead, it featured violet-colored gla.s.s with a gla.s.sy transparency. On the small pendant at the end of the bracelet, there seemed to be two English letters engraved. It could be said that while this bracelet might not be considered priceless, it was still quite valuable.
Ye Lengan was a little surprised. Pang Tingting was at her wits end, yet she hadnt sold this bracelet.
Actually, its not that I dont want to sell this bracelet, but I dont dare to. Pang Tingting seemed to discern Ye Lengans thoughts. She smiled bitterly and said, Back then at the entrance of the hospital nursery, I saw a woman dressed all in black, wearing sungla.s.ses, a hat, and even a mask. She had wrapped herself up tightly. At that time, she was looking at you through the gla.s.s. But for some reason, when she saw me arrive, it was like she didnt want to meet anyone and hurriedly left. When leaving in such a rush, she accidentally left the bracelet behind. It was also because of this that when I had the idea to switch the babies, you were the first one I thought of. So I switched you with Ye Xiyuan. As for this bracelet, after I brought it home, I
was very scared. I was also afraid the other party would come to my door, so I didnt dare do anything with it and could only hide it away.
Do you remember any distinctive features of that woman in black? Ye Lengan furrowed her brow and inquired, Or maybe you can recall her approximate age or any other details about her? Can you remember anything?
I dont know. Pang Tingting honestly shook her head. That woman was wrapped up too tightly. I couldnt see her at all clearly. Also, I only caught a glimpse of her. We didnt interact at all.
This was all she could remember. Moreover, she didnt find anything suspicious back then, so she didnt consciously think too much about it. If without the bracelet, she felt she might have forgotten about the whole thing already.
After hearing Pang Tingtings words, Ye Lengan sank into thought. She subconsciously felt the woman Pang Tingting met was likely the woman who had approached Ye Shen and Li Zhaohui before. But who exactly was that woman? What was her connection to Ye Lengan?
Seeing Ye Lengan sitting opposite her without saying a word, Pang Tingtings heart was filled with anxiety.
She had already told her everything she knew, without any omissions. She didnt know if Ye Lengan believed her words. If Ye Lengan was doubtful, what should she do next?
After a long while, Ye Lengan finally spoke again. Pang Tingting, what do you want?
She could still tell if Pang Tingting was lying or not. That woman in black was obviously the most crucial breakthrough if she wanted to find out about her parentage. That bracelet was the only clue to finding the woman in black. So she really had to get the bracelet back today.
Hearing Ye Lengans words, Pang Tingting was ecstatic. Because she knew Ye Lengan had already believed her words, which meant she now had the leverage to negotiate with her. With the backing of Huangfu Ruiling behind Ye Lengan, as long as Ye Lengan was willing to intervene, the Ye family wouldnt be able to trouble her in the future.
However, after the ecstasy, she felt a little lost. Because she really wanted too much. Now that Ye Lengan had suddenly asked this, she didnt know how to reply for a moment.
l Pang Tingting opened her mouth, thought for a bit, and then said, l want a job. Also, I need you to help me pay off the loan on the house Im currently living in. And l
Stop! After hearing Pang Tingtings words, Ye Lengan made a gesture to stop her, then looked at Pang Tingting with a faint smile and said, It seems you know who that woman in black is! Then tell me first!
What? Hearing Ye Lengans sudden words, Pang Tingting couldnt react in time. Didnt I already say earlier? I couldnt see clearly at all, so how could I know who she was?
Oh, so you didnt know! Ye Lengan feigned a sudden realization, and then, with a mocking look in her eyes, she turned her gaze back to Pang Tingting.
Since you dont know, your bargaining chip right now is merely a bracelet. The principle of equivalent exchange. Before you make any demands, you should think carefully about what cards you have to negotiate with me.
Pang Tingting did seem quite ambitious, demanding so much when she only had a fragment of information, which couldnt even be considered a significant clue. It made one wonder if she genuinely believed Ye Lengan would agree to all these demands. She might appear to be a bit naive in thinking she could get her way so easily.
Seeing the sarcasm in Ye Lengans eyes, Pang Tingting immediately sobered up. However, she still felt very indignant. Ye Lengan, you promised before to help me. Are you going back on your word now? My requests are nothing more than a small favor for you, and theyre not unreasonable at all..
