Chapter 144 Gifts
Yin Mangmang and Lin Ze'an were chatting there, and Yuan Zhuoyue took the opportunity to take out the "amulet" he had prepared earlier from his pocket.
He placed it in his open palm and showed it to the two people sitting opposite him, who were touching their bellies with satisfied looks on their faces.
In Yuan Zhuoyue's hands were two pendants of exactly the same style, with a diamond-shaped yellow gemstone. They were made using the wire winding technique using copper wire leftover from her previous handicrafts and a medium condensed by his own strength.
Due to work reasons, they cannot carry jewelry such as rings, bracelets or earrings with them.
Yuan Zhuoyue thought about it and decided to make two necklaces. After all, things hung around the neck would not be so conspicuous because they would be covered by clothes.
Moreover, the overall size of the pendant is not exaggerated, only the size of a fingernail, which is more suitable for their situation.
Yin Mangmang was the first to come over, took a quick look, and immediately hooked the silver chain with his fingers, causing the two necklaces with pendants to sway slightly in the air.
"Wow! So beautiful!" She first praised in a slightly exaggerated manner, and then smiled and deliberately asked in a pretentious tone: "Is this just for me, or are there other girls too?"
Yuan Zhuoyue said very cooperatively: "All the girls have it."
Upon hearing this, Yin Mangmang took one of the necklaces in her hand, and then placed the remaining necklace in Lin Ze'an's open palm.
After Lin Ze'an got the things in his hands, he pretended to say, "Humph, I knew that others would not give them to me unless they picked the leftovers."
Yin Mangmang and Lin Ze'an looked at each other and immediately burst out laughing. Their laughter was so loud that they fell forward and backward.
This attracted the attention of the diners around them, who looked towards the table where they were sitting.
Yuan Zhuoyue has also gotten used to it. These two people don't care about their external image at all, and they don't look embarrassed at all when they behave in public.
He just calmly reminded: "You'd better keep the necklace I gave you with you at all times. Don't leave it."
The two people who were holding the necklace in their hands and looking at it paused for a moment. Yin Mangmang still had a confused look on his face and looked over with a puzzled look.
Lin Ze'an chose to ask directly: "Do I have to carry it with me?"
Yuan Zhuoyue did not explain further, but just nodded and said, "Yes."
Lin Ze'an didn't hesitate when he heard that and directly hung the necklace around his neck.
Although Yin Mangmang still looked confused, when she saw her friend doing it, she followed closely and put on the necklace.
Looking at these two people, who were obediently like a necklace around their necks, Yuan Zhuoyue's mind moved, and the silver chains hanging around their necks were coated with a layer of light golden color.
It is impossible to leave your body!
Since it was hanging around her neck, for the sake of their safety, Yuan Zhuoyue had no intention of giving the two of them a chance to take off the necklace before she found other ways.
Although Yuan Zhuoyue really wanted to protect the safety of her family and friends, she didn't know whether this external force would have any adverse effects on the human body.
Also because the 'knowledge' she had learned before, those runes and formations, did not directly act on the human body, but relied on some media.
Therefore, Yuan Zhuoyue didn't dare to use those rune arrays directly on people.
So he created a chain as a medium, storing his power in it to protect the life of the holder.
After hanging the necklace around her neck, Yin Mangmang didn't think much about it. She happily took her friends and started chatting about everything.
After feeling that he had rested well, he took his two friends to take a walk by the lake in the park near the mall.
It was already dark now. On the relatively wide trail by the lake facing the street, a row of stalls were neatly arranged within the area planned on the ground.
The stall owners all looked young. Some sold beads and ornaments, some sold various snacks, and some sold small fish, small turtles, small rabbits and the like.
There were quite a lot of people coming and going, and it looked very lively. Lin Ze'an and Yuan Zhuoyue were walking at the railing by the lake, a little further away from the surging crowd.
Yin Mangmang, who loved to join in the fun, had already come to a small stall, holding a hairpin on the stall, and gesturing in front of the mirror provided by the owner.
Yuan Zhuoyue leaned on the railing and asked Lin Ze'an beside him: "How did you find out?"
This question was asked incoherently, but based on the tacit understanding they had gained over the years of acquaintance, Lin Ze'an already knew what Yuan Zhuoyue was asking.
"I have known you for such a long time, and our two families live very close, only one street apart... If I stand in front of the window of my living room, I can see your house by just looking up." Lin Ze'an smiled: "I didn't deny those 'facts' at first, but then I found that there were many suspicious people around you, and I felt that something was wrong."
Yuan Zhuoyue asked again: "Then how did you confirm it?"
"We worked in the same hospital for a year. I felt something was wrong, so I asked my former colleague to look up your two hospitalization records and diagnoses... But he told me that he only found your hospitalization records in the hospital many years ago, and there is no recent information related to you." After saying these words, Lin Ze'an's smile on his face seemed more relaxed and happy: "I thought you didn't know, so I wanted to give you a reminder without attracting other people's attention. ... But now it seems that I worried too much. Those people don't seem to affect your life anymore? I think those people's backgrounds are unusual. Are you involved in some trouble?"
"Now, we can say that we don't interfere with each other..." Yuan Zhuoyue just answered ambiguously, and after a moment of silence, he added: "...Thank you."
And his gaze couldn't help but shift to Yin Mangmang, who was still putting flowers in her hair in the mirror in the distance.
Seeing this, Lin Ze'an said, "I didn't tell her too much, I just said someone was following you and you seemed to be involved in some troublesome incident."
