"The thing is I don't know what kind of attraction the hairpin holds for you. Why are you willing to spend so much money to get hold of it?" Gao Long asked curiously.
Qiao Mei looked into Gao Long's eyes and whispered, "Uncle, what if I say that it's part of my grandmother's belongings?"
"What!" Gao Long said as he looked at Qiao Mei in shock.
Gao Long did not interact much with Gao Tao, but he knew very well that Gao Tao had already passed away for many years by the time Qiao Mei was born. How did Qiao Mei know that the hairpin belonged to Gao Tao?
"My eyes and ears are much sharper than an ordinary person. Although that hairpin looks simple, there's gold thread coiled around the edge of the black jadeite. The pattern on it looks similar to the jewelry I bought at the auction house in Country M. Moreover, there's indeed a hairpin missing from that set of jewelry, so I guess that it used to belong to Grandmother," Qiao Mei explained.
