Chapter 560 The Origin of the Jade Charm

“Shen Lan?”

Both Chen Diancang and Chen Jindong felt awkward.

To be frank, Chen Diancang forgot himself.

But it couldn’t be helped because he would be attending the Holy Water Ritual soon, and he would not

be coming home alive.

Fortunately, heaven had justice and allowed him to see his great-granddaughter.

It was indeed a miracle from the heavens.

Therefore, Chen Diancang was full of emotions now.

However, when he saw Shen Lan walking toward them, he felt a sense of guilt.

Shen Lan was the rightful daughter-in-law of the Chen Family.

All these years, she had been managing all the matters of the Chen Family.

“Oh, I’m not sure either. I just thought that this little girl looked adorable, so I played with her for a

while!” Chen Diancang answered awkwardly.

Shen Lan responded with a silent nod.

In her hand, there was a white scroll.

“Shen Lan, what did you want to tell Chen Hao?”

Chen Diancang handed Mi Fan to Chen Jindong and reverted to the attitude of a master of a

household.

“A few days ago, a strange image appeared in the Sun Totem when I was observing it. Chen Hao

asked for my help to find the girl in the white shirt, and I think the Sun Totem has shown some

guidance!” Shen Lan said.

Since the previous time when they discovered Shen Lan’s eyes had extraordinary ability which

common people did not have, Chen Diancang had assigned Shen Lan the right to manage the Sun

Totem of the Chen Family.

“Guidance has appeared?”

Chen Diancang furrowed his eyebrows. “Alright, let’s discuss this in the study!”

In the study, Shen Lan opened the white scroll.

Chen Diancang and Chen Hao saw an image drawn on the scroll.

“The white-shirt girl seems to be related to Chen Hao. Yesterday, you asked me to locate the white-shirt

girl with the aid of the Sun Totem. I’ve asked several times, but this is the only image the Sun Totem

showed in the end.”

“Chen Hao, why do you want to find this white-shirt girl so eagerly? Did you come across any

significant clue during your trip to the desert?” Shen Lan asked.

“I was going to tell you all about this. All the happenings during my trip to the desert were

inconceivable, including my death prophecy, and all of them are related to this white-shirt girl. I have a

feeling that once I find this white-shirt girl, all the questions that I have will be answered!” Chen Hao

said.

He was about to tell his grandfather about the God Knight.

At this moment, Chen Hao frowned when he looked at the image.

“Strange. This image looks familiar. I feel like I’ve seen this somewhere before!” Chen Hao murmured.

“Chen Hao, you’ve seen this image before?” Chen Diancang asked.

Chen Hao pondered with his eyebrows furrowed for a while. Suddenly, something came into his mind.

“Zhao Yifan!!”

He raised his head abruptly.

Shen Lan looked at Chen Hao curiously.

“Yes. This image looks a lot like the jade charm on Zhao Yifan’s neck!” Chen Hao pointed out.

“Indeed. I remember now. The same jade charm is also on Mi Fan’s neck!” Chen Diancang added.

Chen Hao took the white scroll and rushed to Zhao Yifan’s room.

“Chen Hao, you’re finally willing to meet me!” Zhao Yifan sobbed as she said.

Chen Hao grabbed the jade charm on Zhao Yifan’s neck and compared it meticulously.

As expected, it was exactly the same.

“They really are identical! Tell me, where did you get the jade charm on your neck?” Chen Hao

questioned her.

“I-I don’t know!” Zhao Yifan looked panicked and immediately shook her head.

“Are you going to tell me or not?” Chen Hao shouted at her coldly.

“Chen Hao, I’ll tell you everything if you promise to take me in!” Zhao Yifan grabbed Chen Hao’s arm.

“Tell me!” Chen Hao pushed her hand away.

Zhao Yifan wiped her tears and started to relay the story.

“This matter started from the night when we were at Bay Hotel…”

From her explanation, Chen Hao had a general understanding of what happened.

That night, Chen Hao fell unconscious after he was drugged by Zhao Yifan.

According to Zhao Yifan’s plan, she had intended to have sexual intercourse with Chen Hao.

She aimed to get pregnant this way so that she could marry into a truly wealthy family.

However, her menstruation came earlier than usual that night!

Zhao Yifan was extremely frustrated to the point of wanting to give herself a few slaps.

Therefore, her plan did not work out.

Of course, there was some blood stain on the mattress.

But Zhao Yifan lied to Chen Hao that this blood was that kind of blood.

Chen Hao remembered that he was going to find Su Tongxin at that time, so he gave her 80 million and

asked her to go somewhere far from here.

At that moment, Zhao Yifan was resentful and annoyed.

I love you so much. Why would you treat me like this?

Zhao Yifan was engulfed with grief.

Therefore, she decided to make a mountain out of a molehill and find the Chen Family.

She booked a cruise to the island of Chen Hao’s sister.

However, that island was nowhere to be found.

Soon, it was late at night.

Zhao Yifan stared at the vast ocean but there was nothing around her. She was only accompanied by

the howling sea breeze.

Hopeless, she decided to head back.

Right at this moment, she met with a fleet of strange ships.

Zhao Yifan tried to ask them about the island, and the people agreed to bring Zhao Yifan to Chen

Xiao’s island.

However, they lied. They did not lead her to the island, but brought her to an unfamiliar coast.

This family was called the Ming Family.

That night, a young master named Ming Yi had taken an interest in her, so he lured her away.

In that strange city, Zhao Yifan was terrified and afraid.

Fortunately, although Ming Yi was not a man of integrity, he did not force her after hearing that she was

pregnant. It seemed like there were many rules for this kind of matter there.

Zhao Yifan promised to marry him a year later after her child was born. Only then did he lower his

guard against her.

Of course, she lied to him about being pregnant.

It was simple and straightforward after that. Zhao Yifan tried to find an opportunity to escape.

She had heard of a capable person named Mr. Ghost who had vast knowledge and was skilled in

inferring and calculating.

He was also an independent force.

Therefore, Zhao Yifan sought help from him.

Of course, she had to pay a price of 60 million.

Zhao Yifan thought, What’s the point of escaping if I don’t have any money?

Hence, she thought of Chen Hao and decided to go back to the Chen Family.

Mr. Ghost had told Zhao Yifan of a method, where she had to use a pair of jade charms that was dug

up by the Ming Family from the Sea King’s Tomb. This pair of jade charms had the ability of attractingnovelbin

blood.

In simpler words, this pair of jade charms could connect three people by blood relation.

However, Zhao Yifan had left hastily that night, so she did not have a strand of Chen Hao’s hair or

anything of that kind. The only thing she had with her was a shirt of Chen Hao. She took his shirt

because she was planning to look for Chen Xiao.

Mr. Ghost told her that even though the effect might be weaker, common equipment would not detect it.

Therefore, Zhao Yifan stole this pair of jade charms, found a suitable baby from the orphanage and fled

for her life until she arrived at this place.

Even the location of the Chen Family was calculated by Mr. Ghost.

Other than that, Mr. Ghost told her that she was destined to be a noble woman, which led to this scene.

Zhao Yifan had fled from the Ming Family a year ago and concealed herself for half a year. Only then

did she arrive at the Chen Family’s house safely.

She had to hide herself because the Ming Family was searching for her everywhere.

After Zhao Yifan told her story, Chen Hao understood fully.

A question popped into his mind.

Shen Lan mentioned that the Sun Totem prompted this jade charm repeatedly.

Could it be that the whereabouts of the white-shirt girl was related to the jade charm and the ancient

tomb where the jade charm came from?
