Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 251: No Outcome

That night, Gu Ningyue lay on the bed looking at the notebook on her lap.

The bluish glow made her face appear ghostly, presenting an eerie radiance in the darkness.

Aside from Cheng Yihan, there really are a few master jade sculptors in City A, but after learning about their stories, Gu Ningyue felt a headache.

Renowned jade sculptors have always been proud and arrogant. In ancient times, Lu Zigang would sign off on every jade piece he carved, including the jade pot he made for the emperor. Consequently, he was beheaded by the emperor. Thus, persuading a good jade sculptor to carve a piece is no easy task.

Among these few sculptors, the best one, like Lu Zigang, also enjoys signing off on their carved creations.

And that Blood Jade is naturally absolutely impossible.

Removing this signature might come at some unexpected cost.

Gu Ningyue sent these sculptors’ contact information to Lin Ruixian, along with a summary of their personalities, finally adding: "Visit them personally tomorrow and probe further! The information hasn’t been updated for a long time; I can only find this now."

Previously, when in the organization, this information was always up-to-date, making it effortless to find.

Now, everything has become inconvenient, making her realize just how crucial the organization’s background was.

"Ding Dong—"

"Alright, will you accompany me?"

Gu Ningyue looked at this message and didn’t know how to reply for a moment.

"Ding Dong—"

"Women are always easier to talk to than men; just this once, please help me!"

Only then did Gu Ningyue reply, "Alright."

But after sending it, she realized she might have been tricked.

With Lin Ruixian’s skills, getting someone to carve a jade piece for him should be effortless.

Why would her presence be necessary?

But since she had already spoken, refuting now would only make her appear foolish.

Gu Ningyue pouted, reminding herself to think more before discussing matters with Lin Ruixian next time.

After confirming the time, Gu Ningyue shut down her computer and went to sleep early.

For some reason, possibly due to a call from Ling Tianyou earlier, Gu Ningyue’s dreams were filled with everything related to Ling Tianyou.

She dreamt of herself embracing Ling Tianyou, but before they could take another step forward, Chen Rui appeared.

Her face was tear-stained, looking fragile and pitiful. Ling Tianyou released Gu Ningyue and rushed towards Chen Rui without looking back.

Gu Ningyue watched as Ling Tianyou ran to Chen Rui, tightly holding her in his arms, feeling a silent fury engulfing her.

She never knew that witnessing Ling Tianyou and Chen Rui together would evoke such a strong reaction.

Despite knowing it was just a dream, she couldn’t control her desire to separate them.

The scene shifted to a bustling wedding about to begin; she appeared in white from across the red carpet.

She didn’t know why she was there, but the surroundings clearly indicated she was about to get married.

Yet she wasn’t sure who the groom was.

Could it be Ling Tianyou? Or someone else?

Gu Ningyue held her bouquet, trying hard to see the pictures rolling on the big screen.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t see the faces clearly.

She wasn’t even sure of her own photos.

Was that glamorous woman really her? Now she is Gu Ningyue, so why does the face in the photo resemble the former Gu Weiwei?

Music echoed in the dream; the groom never appeared.

Only when daylight broke, awakening her from the big dream, did Gu Ningyue realize she didn’t know who her groom was.

Could it be that she and Ling Tianyou would never be together?

Even in dreams, they would never have an ending.

After breakfast, Gu Ningyue glanced at the long scar on her waist. It was really unsightly! 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

This body already had many old scars from the past; now there’s a huge new knife scar, truly unfair to the original owner’s pretty face.

Once she meets Shangguan Wu, she must find a way to obtain some scar removal medicine.

Provided, of course, the cost is affordable.

After changing the bandages, Gu Ningyue grabbed the jacket hanging on the rack and left.

Arriving at the meeting place with Lin Ruixian, Gu Ningyue saw him wearing a white shirt and black pants, her heartbeat inexplicably quickened.

This outfit really suited him.

"Let’s go!" Lin Ruixian looked at her and said, "We’re going to Jin Lin’s place."

Gu Ningyue nodded, drove and followed Lin Ruixian’s car all the way to the front of Jin Lin’s shop.

Jin Lin is the renowned jade sculptor in City A, who showcased his work at an exhibition a few years ago and spontaneously carved a masterpiece, causing a sensation.

Not just in City A, even people from other cities gradually started hearing about it and visiting.

Later, Jin Lin took advantage of this fame, opening this jade store.

The store is classical and antique, occupying a small area in City A, but many patronize it because of Jin Lin’s reputation, keeping business flourishing despite the remote location.

Upon entering the store, Lin Ruixian stated his business, quickly meeting Jin Lin on behalf of the Lin Family.

Jin Lin, now in his forties, appeared arrogant, seemingly looking down on people.

Gu Ningyue truly understood today what it means to be conceited because of talent.

She watched the entire time as Lin Ruixian ’persuaded’ Jin Lin, feeling utterly redundant.

With Lin Ruixian present, was her presence even necessary? She wasn’t even a vase?

From start to finish, Jin Lin’s eyes never glanced at her once.

Gu Ningyue even touched her face, wondering whether her complexion recently worsened to the extent that even passersby found it unnecessary to take another look.

With this thought, Gu Ningyue heard Lin Ruixian say, "Mr. Jin, then could you do me a favor, I’ll pick up the jade tomorrow."

It was only at this point that Gu Ningyue noticed a box had somehow appeared on the table, and Lin Ruixian and Jin Lin were already standing, shaking hands in farewell: "Alright, Mr. Lin, take care."

Once out of Jin Lin’s shop, Gu Ningyue couldn’t help but ask Lin Ruixian, "You just handed him the jade like that?"

To someone completely unknown, someone not trustworthy?

Lin Ruixian looked at her as if she were an idiot: "I gave him another piece of jade. I must ensure his craftsmanship is worthy of my Blood Jade, right?"

Most importantly, whether he can perfectly carve out the patterns.

Gu Ningyue let out a sigh of relief, choosing to ignore his look: "Alright, then I’ll go home?"

Lin Ruixian paused, "It’s still early; want to have a drink at my shop?"
