Kong Yuru just couldn't understand, she had only taken a jade pendant, so how had things come to this point?
In her heart, she grew even more resentful toward Stone, thinking that it was all because of that jinx. If he had obediently handed over the Scar Removal Ointment, she wouldn't have rummaged around, wouldn't have seen that jade pendant, and wouldn't have developed greedy thoughts.
And she wouldn't be stuck in this godforsaken place now. Who could come to rescue her?
As for the three hundred dollars Lu Yichen claimed to have lost, Kong Yuru tried to implicate the brigade leader and the villagers present at the time, suggesting who knows if they were the ones who took it.
The police had called in those people for questioning, one by one, but came up with nothing. In the end, the matter of the money had to be set aside. However, Lu Yichen insisted that all the items Kong Yuru had touched must be replaced with new ones, otherwise the matter wouldn't be settled.
