Huo Yao raised her brow the moment she heard what the shopkeeper said. "Is there a second half to it?"
The shopkeeper glanced at her and said, "Have you heard of the eight trigrams? They combine to form the eight trigrams."
Huo Yao always felt the jade pendant had a very unusual shape, but it never dawned on her it was half of an eight trigram. Now that the shopkeeper mentioned it, she felt he was right.
"If you have the second half, it will fetch a higher price," said the shopkeeper as Huo Yao contemplated.
Huo Yao answered lazily. "I am not selling it."
The shopkeeper went quiet.
Huo Yao took the necklace bCK from the shopkeeper and put it on her neck before she stood up. "I am leaving."
The shopkeeper was stunned. He did not expect her to suddenly leave, so he stood up. "Hang on."
Huo Yao looked sideways at the shopkeeper.
