Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 17 The Rich Young Master's Little Pendant

"Let's break up. You can't give me what I want, and I can't keep going. Let's part amicably."

The woman's voice was crisp and clear.

"I……"

The man's hesitant voice rang out, but the woman, impatient, interrupted him directly: "Stop beating around the bush, it's settled then. You should know best what your family has been up to. Don't play innocent here. Also, where's the jade pendant I gave you when we confirmed our relationship? Give it back to me!!"

"But...didn't I buy that?"

The man's voice sounded slow and hesitant, giving the impression of weakness.

"You bought it for me, so it's mine. I gave it to you before, and now I want it back. You won't refuse, will you?"

Seeing Xu Xiunian's slow and hesitant manner, Jiang Xinyan immediately became furious and her attitude became even more self-righteous. "Your family is so rich, why would you care about a pendant that's only worth about 200 yuan? Xu Xiunian, don't make me look down on you!!"

"I'm not……"

"Stop talking. To put it bluntly, you're not planning to give it back to me, are you?" Jiang Xinyan was quite eager to get her pendant back and no longer cared about pretending to be an innocent girl. She took a step forward and reached out to snatch the blue pendant that Xu Xiunian was wearing around his neck.

For some reason, Xu Xiunian had a strange premonition that the blue pendant they had bought together back then was very important to him. He instinctively dodged, and Jiang Xinyan missed her.

"Xu Xiunian!!!" Staggering, Jiang Xinyan's anger surged. She stared intently at Xu Xiunian, never expecting that the Xu Xiunian who used to obey her would one day abandon her. "Fine, very well!"

"Xu Xiunian, I thought our relationship was mutual, that you at least loved me. Although your family forced us to break up, I thought our feelings for each other were still there. Now it seems I was just being delusional. You probably never liked me at all, did you?" A cold smile curled at the corner of her lips, completely tearing away her pretense, her chilling gaze fixed intently on Xu Xiunian. "Hmph! How wonderful..."

Her voice trailed off, and the coldness in her eyes gradually turned into sadness. "Hahaha, that's great. At least this way, I can be at peace with ourselves after we break up. That pendant was bought when we first got together. It holds our happiest memories. I just wanted to keep a memento of this relationship. Is that not allowed? Anyway, your family is rich. You can have any kind of pendant you want. Is it wrong for me to just want to keep this one as a keepsake? Why... did you reject me?"

Tears streamed down her cheeks, and Jiang Xinyan cried uncontrollably.

Xu Xiunian was most afraid of women's tears. Although he didn't know when he and Jiang Xinyan had become a couple, they were good friends after all, and he simply couldn't resist her tears.

He reached out and grabbed the pendant around his neck, somewhat hesitant.

Having just transmigrated, Yu Liu didn't understand the situation yet, but she could clearly sense that she was the pendant that the two people were fighting over.

"...Do you really have such a cruel heart?" Jiang Xinyan looked at Xu Xiunian with teary eyes, her gaze filled with despair.

Xu Xiunian softened for a moment, but he finally steeled himself and untied the rope around his neck, handing it, along with the pendant, to Jiang Xinyan.

Having obtained the item, Jiang Xinyan lost all interest in acting. She quickly snatched the pendant into her hand, turned around, and left. "I will keep it safe. You should go back to class now. Let's call it a day."

Xu Xiunian was completely taken aback by her sudden change of attitude. He stood there dumbfounded, feeling regretful, but could only watch helplessly as Jiang Xinyan walked away.

Jiang Xinyan walked for a while, and seeing that no one was around, she eagerly opened her palm. Seeing the pendant shimmering with blue light in the darkness, her eyes were filled with wild joy: "You were always meant to be my treasure. If you hadn't fallen into the hands of that bastard Xu Xiunian in my past life, why would I have suffered such a miserable life? Now that I've been reborn, what's mine is mine. If Xu Xiunian can become famous in the world because of you, so can I!!"

She gripped the pendant tightly, her face full of smug arrogance.

Yu Liu: It hurts so much from being pinched~╥﹏╥

Just from Jiang Xinyan's attitude towards the pendant, Yu Liu knew that she was definitely not her desired target. Yue Sheng would never choose a target who would torture her!

But what exactly is this wish all about? Why am I not by the side of the person I wished for when I transmigrated here?

Yu Liu was full of questions, but luckily Jiang Xinyan had hung her around her neck, so she was temporarily safe. She calmed herself down and used the power of her will to communicate with the world, quickly learning about the world's wishes.

When it first arrived in this world, there was actually no mistake. Yu Liu did appear next to the wish target. However, it was only a short while before the wish target gave it away. Yes, Yu Liu's wish target was Xu Xiunian, who had previously argued with Jiang Xinyan.

What should I do when my target abandons me?

The wishes and goals of this world are also very tragic. Xu Xiunian, like Qi Jing, was also born into a wealthy family. However, this time he was no longer the heir, but the youngest in the family. He was spoiled by his family since childhood. Although he was not ignorant of human relationships, he was sometimes slower to react than ordinary people. The doctor diagnosed him with mild autism.

However, none of this hindered him. He had been interested in medicine since he was a child and showed extraordinary talent. Since he was about ten years old and became sensible, his family members no longer needed to go to the doctor when someone got sick. He handled everything himself and there was never a misdiagnosis.

At this time, Xu Xiunian is a university student. He has become an apprentice of Yu Zhongding, a famous medical professor at the university. He devotes most of his time to medical research, and when he has free time, he goes out to play with Jiang Xinyan.

His acquaintance with Jiang Xinyan was somewhat coincidental. Once, Jiang Xinyan owed someone money and was blocked at the entrance of an alley by debt collectors. Xu Xiunian happened to run into her at that time. Xu Xiunian, who had no concept of money, directly helped Jiang Xinyan pay off the more than 5 yuan she owed. At that time, Jiang Xinyan set her sights on Xu Xiunian.

She had specifically investigated Xu Xiunian, a young master from a wealthy family, pampered by everyone in his family. He was somewhat naive and easy to fool. It would be incredibly simple to manipulate such a person.

Jiang Xinyan took the initiative to approach Xu Xiunian, and the two became friends. Of course, in Xu Xiunian's eyes they were good friends, but in Jiang Xinyan's eyes they were boyfriend and girlfriend.

Having a wealthy boyfriend, Jiang Xinyan couldn't help but show off. After Xu Xiunian's parents learned of this, they secretly had someone investigate Jiang Xinyan and found out that she was not a good girl. They then tried every means to break them up.

Jiang Xinyan couldn't resist the allure of money and broke up with Xu Xiunian. In their past lives, Jiang Xinyan naturally didn't care about the pendant she bought for 200 yuan. She squandered the breakup fee given to her by the Xu family in just a few months, and then her good days came to an end. A bunch of awful relatives of hers heard from somewhere that she was doing well in the city, so they sold their house and came to the city to seek refuge with her. At that time, she had no money again.

Finally, feeling cheated, her relatives subjected her to all sorts of beatings and verbal abuse. Because of these relatives, Jiang Xinyan could no longer hook up with any wealthy, gullible men; they avoided her whenever they saw them. Left with no other choice, Jiang Xinyan went out to work, wasting most of her life. Then, one day, she saw a news report about the triumphant Xu Xiunian, who had developed a life-extending potion that could also cure cancer, shocking the world!

Jiang Xinyan then remembered her "ex-boyfriend" and on a whim went to find Xu Xiunian.

Xu Xiunian remained as naive as ever. He took in Jiang Xinyan, but Jiang Xinyan discovered a secret.

The blue pendant that she and Xu Xiunian bought for 200 yuan back then turned out to be a treasure. Hidden inside the pendant was a spiritual spring. Drinking the water from the spring could eliminate impurities from the body, not only prolonging life but also beautifying the skin. Most importantly, the longevity-extending medicine developed by Xu Xiunian contained ingredients from the spiritual spring.

Jiang Xinyan, who knew the secret, was soon discovered. She tried to escape, but during the chase with the people protecting Xu Xiunian, she lost her footing and fell down the stairs, dying instantly. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself back in the time when she and Xu Xiunian were about to break up.

This time, having learned the secret of the jade pendant beforehand, she no longer intended to leave it to Xu Xiunian. The scene just now was how she tricked him into giving her the jade pendant.

The reason why Xu Xiunian became Yu Liu's target was naturally due to subsequent developments.

Jiang Xinyan is a selfish person, and she doesn't have Xu Xiunian's medical skills, so her first reaction after obtaining the spiritual spring was not to use it for research like Xu Xiunian, but to use it for herself.

She became more and more beautiful, and more and more people liked her. Moreover, she used the longevity-enhancing effects of the spiritual spring to win over a large number of powerful and influential people.

Since she had given the spiritual spring to someone else, she could always get it through some special channels. Seeing that Xu Xiunian was interested in it, the Xu family spent a lot of money to get a bottle of spiritual spring. Then, the equally outstanding Xu Xiunian, just like in his previous life, once again developed a medicine that could prolong life, which caused a sensation around the world.

Jiang Xinyan felt that she could never catch up with Xu Xiunian no matter what she did, so she decided to go all out and found a man in the underworld who owed her a favor, and had that man assassinate Xu Xiunian.

Xu Xiunian's death took away the technology he had just developed. When his body was found, it had been gruesomely mutilated, and the scene clearly indicated homicide. The police quickly opened a case, but the investigation ultimately yielded no results.

Those patients treated by Xu Xiunian and those waiting for his research were unwilling to believe it was true. They hoped that Xu Xiunian could die peacefully and make greater contributions to society. Although not everyone was sincere, their prayers still gathered into a huge force, allowing Yu Liu to enter this world of wishes.

Yu Liu's appearance was also ill-timed; she was now in the hands of Jiang Xinyan, a selfish and self-serving person, and no one knew what to do next.

After racking her brains for a while without finding a solution, Yu Liu began to examine her body closely. Sure enough, she discovered that there was a small space inside the blue jade pendant she was residing in, connected to a shallow spiritual spring.

This spiritual spring definitely cannot be given to Jiang Xinyan; we must find another way to return it to Xu Xiunian's side.
