Chapter 513: Chapter 513: Whose Child Is It? 10

He reached out towards the object, intending to take a closer look, but just then, a gentle and refined voice suddenly came from behind, "Mr. Ou, long time no see."

It was the antique heavyweight, Mr. Lin!

Ou Yuze heard this and immediately retracted his hand, turning to look behind him, "Mr. Lin, such a long time no see, I didn’t expect you lived here?"

Lin Yebai smiled, "For someone like me, where I live doesn’t matter—it’s just a residence. Please come this way, Mr. Ou."

After speaking, he turned and entered the courtyard behind the antique shop.

Ou Yuze saw this and hurriedly followed.

Ou Yuze hadn’t had much interaction with Mr. Lin; he only knew that he was a very famous figure in this line of business, a man of great skill who mixed in both the underworld and the legitimate world.

As such, he acted quite restrained in his presence.

Following him inside, he noticed that upon entering the courtyard, the view was much more spacious than the front store, as if entering another place altogether.

Accompanying him, they saw an already set tea table with tea brewing, and as they arrived, the fragrant aroma hit them. The scent was so refreshing that Ou Yuze, whose mind had been in turmoil all day, felt an unprecedented clarity.

"Mr. Lin, what brings me here today? What do you need?" Ou Yuze asked.

"Nothing serious," Lin Yebai replied. "I saw the newspaper today and learned about Mr. Ou’s troubles, so I asked you to come and take the pair of Jade Bracelets you entrusted to me in Japan. You are in need of money now, aren’t you?"

Lin Yebai was straightforward as he inquired, and he spoke directly.

Ou Yuze was startled...

Jade Bracelets?

That’s right, the pair of Jade Bracelets he had switched in Japan were originally meant to be taken by himself, but after he was exposed, he had entrusted them to him. Unexpectedly, Lin Yebai still remembered them at this time.

Ou Yuze felt deeply moved, and for a moment, even the corners of his eyes turned red, "I won’t hide it from Mr. Lin—I’ve been driven out today, and I haven’t seen a single figure from all of my friends and relatives. Yet, you..."

He didn’t finish his sentence, but it was clear he was truly touched.

Lin Yebai, sitting there, merely smiled faintly and gestured for him to sit down, then had Xiaojin bring out the pair of Jade Bracelets.

"They were originally yours to begin with. I’m just returning what belongs to its rightful owner, I haven’t done much," he said.

"It’s different," Ou Yuze responded. "Mr. Lin, you don’t understand. Even a little bit means a lot to me right now, it’s like sending charcoal in snowy weather, not to mention that these Jade Bracelets were a pair of treasured collectibles dearly loved by my grandfather."

"Your grandfather?"

"Yes, these were burial items for the royal family of the Han Dynasty. They are very valuable. My grandfather giving them to Bai Tingfang caused dissatisfaction with my father and aunt, leading to a long uproar at home."

Perhaps it was the act of receiving timely help that made this man completely let his guard down, for he ended up revealing the origins of the Jade Bracelets.

As the words ended, the expressions of the two men in the courtyard changed slightly, both giving the Jade Bracelets a significant look.

Burial items for the Han Dynasty’s royal family?

Could it be...?!

Xiaojin nearly snatched the Jade Bracelets back, but at this moment, Lin Yebai acted faster than her, pressing the bracelets back down, "If that’s the case, then you should take good care of these. Objects from the royal family of the Han Dynasty can be worth a lot of money."
