After all, they had been separated for twenty years, and Lu Shenglin did not truly understand the Lu Zhanbei of today...
But she did understand the habit he had since childhood of raising his eyebrows in disbelief. She knew that he didn't trust her. Yet, Lu Shenglin still mustered the courage to say, "Yes! That's exactly what her father told me. And you know our financial situation. We certainly couldn't afford such expensive things."
"I also think you couldn't afford such a jade."
Although Lu Zhanbei was not an expert on jade, his many encounters with it certainly made him more knowledgeable than others. He recognized the quality of the jade pendant, and scornfully hit the nail on the head, "So, this jade pendant wasn't bought by you, was it?"
At his words, Lu Shenglin turned pale, "Lu Zhanbei, how...how...how do you know?"
If she had only suspected before that he might know something, now Lu Shenglin was 100% sure that Lu Zhanbei knew everything.
