Chapter 728: Chapter 727: Looks Familiar

"That’s right, talking to the person who provided the case file would definitely reveal more information. Has Mr. Qin never approached the Shi Family?" Beisitian asked with a smile.

Qin Xinyu looked at Beisitian and smiled as well, "I have, but that brat Shi Guang wouldn’t say a word, he only mentioned that it was given by a Great Power."

Seeing that he was unwilling to discuss the condition, Beisitian quickly thought of a way to get him to talk, but she wouldn’t reveal that she was the one who provided the case file because Qin Xinyu was clearly trying to lead her in that direction to extract information.

"Oh, right, your surname is Bei as well, isn’t it? Those twins are also surnamed Bei." Qin Xinyu seemed to have discovered something interesting.

Jiang Mingzhong frowned slightly. Although Qin Xinyu still had old feelings for him, he was being so rude to Doctor Bei. Even he could tell Qin Xinyu was trying to lead Doctor Bei’s thoughts. What was he doing?

"Xinyu, since you know, why not say it out loud so we can all discuss it together?" Although Jiang Mingzhong wore a smile, he was already displeased.

This was the only thing he could help Doctor Bei with, yet Qin Xinyu was going around in circles making vague statements.

Could he just give a straightforward answer instead of all this probing? What’s the point?

Qin Xinyu looked at Jiang Mingzhong with a curious expression and joked, "Doctor Bei isn’t anxious, but Uncle Jiang seems to be."

Jiang Mingzhong wanted to tell Qin Xinyu about Beisitian’s identity, but judging by what Beisitian said earlier, she didn’t seem to plan on revealing it for now.

"Stop beating around the bush, Xinyu!" Jiang Mingzhong said as he toned down his smile.

Qin Xinyu laughed loudly and quickly said, "Alright, alright, but before I say anything, I feel like the name Beisitian sounds a bit familiar..." He appeared deep in thought, then suddenly realized, "Could it be... you are the head of the Qingyu School?"

Beisitian had a faint smile at the corner of her mouth. It was evident that he had guessed long ago, but now he pretended to be surprised, most likely trying to change the subject.

"Rumor has it you are very young, but I never thought you would be this young!" Qin Xinyu changed to a respectful tone, recognizing that Beisitian is a Great Power. Now that the truth was clear, he naturally had to show respect.

"Mr. Qin sure knows how to speak," Beisitian said with a smile.

Her words bore a double meaning; at first, it seemed she was referring to Qin Xinyu calling her young, but on thinking again, it was clear she had seen through his intentions long ago.

Even if she had seen through it, he didn’t mind.

"Doctor Bei really makes those of us of the same generation feel inferior," Qin Xinyu said sincerely.

The other side obviously was unwilling to talk and kept trying to mislead her. She had lost the mood to continue the conversation. With mutual defenses up, there was no way they could have a fruitful discussion today, so the best option was to find another opportunity to talk.

With this in mind, Beisitian made an excuse that she had matters to attend to and prepared to take her leave.

Jiang Mingzhong looked at Qin Xinyu as if he wanted to say something but stopped. You clearly know Doctor Bei’s identity, why not take this opportunity to strike up a connection? It’s just a case file, is there really a need to be so cautious?

Jiang Mingzhong couldn’t ask more at the moment. After all, it had been such a long time since they last met, and he couldn’t just bring it up immediately.

Beisitian had already walked to the door when Qin Xinyu’s voice suddenly came from behind.

"Doctor Bei, have you seen this before?" Qin Xinyu asked.

Beisitian turned her head and saw Qin Xinyu holding a jade pendant, deep green with a slight curve, rounded on one end and pointed on the other, making it indescribable.

However, Beisitian felt that she’d seen this somewhere before, but she couldn’t recall at that moment. Honestly, she said, "It’s familiar."

Qin Xinyu smiled and put the item away, saying, "If we have time, let’s talk again another day."

Beisitian gave him a deep look and left with Jiang Mingzhong.

After escorting them downstairs, Qin Xinyu returned to his room and sat on the sofa, lost in thought. After a long while, he took that dark green jade pendant from around his neck and gently rubbed it.

"Could I have guessed wrong?" Qin Xinyu muttered to himself, his face full of disappointment.

"If she were the person I’m looking for, how could she not recognize this pendant? Yet all evidence points to her, she is the most likely person!" Qin Xinyu said.

After the last exchange meeting concluded, he had tried to find Beisitian, but Beisitian had seemingly vanished into thin air, not a trace of her could be found.

He never expected that one day she would come to him, which made him all the more certain of his guess. However, Beisitian’s reaction seemed different from his, and given her age, one would expect her not to be so scheming.

Qin Xinyu sighed, tucked the jade pendant into his clothing. Before confirming that she truly doesn’t recognize it, he thought it necessary to interact with Beisitian more. The woman’s guard was high and she spoke without letting anything slip, perhaps she’s truly hiding her real intentions.

Meanwhile, as Beisitian left the business hotel, the image of that jade item kept appearing in her mind involuntarily, it seemed so familiar.

Returning to the villa, Beisitian suddenly realized it looked like one of the items that Beidewang had left behind when departing from the Red Painted Courtyard, among which was something akin to a Jade Pendant, only larger and in a deep green color, with two recessed shapes in the center.

The more Beisitian thought about it, the more similar it seemed, so she immediately called Mrs. Qin.

"Mom, can you check if there’s a dark green item in the cabinet, something like a Jade Pendant with grooves in the center?"

Mrs. Qin searched the bedroom and indeed found such an item.

"Mom, what shape is in the center? Tell me," Beisitian asked eagerly.

"It looks like two small fish... no, not small fish, how to describe this..." Mrs. Qin struggled to find the words.

"Sister, like two tadpoles!" Luo Xuping’s voice came through on the phone.

"How big is it?" Beisitian asked again.

"About the size of a thumb," Mrs. Qin replied.

Having understood, Beisitian said a few words and asked Wei Zhongxun to bring the item over before hanging up.

As expected, no wonder that jade item seemed familiar. If the size matches, then this item should be able to fit snugly into the other!

This was something Beidewang had left behind. Now a stranger, who knew about the condition and claimed to have seen her and Bei Jiale, appeared with one of the components—what could this mean?

Is there some connection between Qin Xinyu and Beidewang?

Beisitian decided to meet Qin Xinyu again once Wei Zhongxun brought the item over.

Wei Zhongxun should have already made a breakthrough. Considering his foundation, it was only a matter of time. Even if he had some psychological shadow regarding Wei Zhongyuan, it shouldn’t affect him too greatly.

On the same day, Wei Zhongxun took action upon knowing Beisitian urgently needed the item; he decided to set off immediately, driving through the night to deliver it.
