Ji Xun clenched the white jade in his hand.
Years ago, as he was passing through Su Nan, his carriage accidentally struck a passing girl. At first, he thought it was just a scrape, but later he found she was poisoned with a strange toxin.
To cure the girl of the poison, he stayed in Su Nan for an extended period until he spent all the silver he had with him. In the end, he had no choice but to leave the jade pendant as collateral at the inn.
Later, when the girl's poison was resolved and her health was about to recover, the people coming to pick him up urged him too impatiently. He left Su Nan overnight, without even having time to redeem the Jade Jue. He had plans to send someone back to retrieve it, but at the last minute, he called them back.
