Awarded Jade Chapter

ople outside, those paper-like maids bowed their heads and with soft deference offered me a curtsey."Lady Xiaoniao, what are your orders" asked a leading maid.“I...didn't have anything to say. Where's..."That's enough!" His voice was laced with suppressed anger.

My slow movements seemed to have exhausted his patience.

I felt a pain in the back of my shoulders, as if something was pressing against me. When I reached up to touch it, I found a cold mask.

Turning back, I saw it was the hideous mask on my husband's face, and he was lying on his side behind me now.

A single bed that's one meter and two wide. When I sleep on it myself, I find it quite spacious. But once a man, no, a male ghost, joins me, it becomes incredibly cramped.

He... his mask is loose

At that moment, I didn't even care about my collapsing body. I reflexively tried to get up —

His face is right in front of you, look Or not look

This way of turning my head only allowed me to see his smooth, full forehead and a beauty mole at the hairline. But I couldn't see anything below that.

He almost woke up at the same time, before I could even make out his face, he reached out with a large hand and pulled the mask back over his face.

I felt a pang of disappointment inside—he must be hideous, otherwise why would he be so afraid of people seeing his face

Outside, the sky was still dark, and he sat up.

"Why haven't you left yet" I pulled the blanket over my face, my voice trembling.

That's so embarrassing.

"Leaving" His voice was still so cold, his words as chilling and indifferent as ever.

"How do I get there" he sneered, leaving me behind.

I am so ashamed, I can't even look at him.

A rustling sound arose as he donned the intricate garment. In a cold voice, he said, "Put on the jade seal, and that crimson ghost face won't dare touch you."

"What jade seal" My life was at stake, so I quickly peeked through a sliver of the gap.

His back grew clearer, this wasn't my imagination—he was definitely more complete than the first night!

"That jade seal hanging from your chest." He left behind a single sentence, disappearing without looking back.

I looked down and, at some point unknown to me, a pendant had appeared here. It was still the same dark red color, a square and exquisite seal hanging on my chest.

The cover has a盤龍祥雲, and on all four sides are intricate carvings. At the bottom are four characters carved in seal script.

Isn't his name Jiang Qiyun Why does the name below have four characters

》》》

"No way! I can't see it clearly!" My brother threw open the large mirror and said in despair, "There are so many characters engraved on this tiny jade seal, it's impossible for humans to do it, even machines couldn't! This requires a microscope to see!"

My dad was sitting on the bed in his clothes, looking haggard, and said: "Nothing in the yin and yang is superfluous. These four small characters on the jade seal must be very important. Let me have a look."

"Dad, you've been worn down by that ghost face. Don't bother yourself anymore." I glared at him, this old man wasn't scared at all

"Well, everything happens for a reason. Good fortune and bad fortune are intertwined and can't be escaped. I've long since let go of it." My dad shrugged nonchalantly: "It's just that you almost got hurt, which makes me feel uneasy... Let me rest for another day, then I'll go back to my hometown and visit your grandfather."

Grandpa is the pillar of our entire family. He's almost ninety years old. Because our family has been involved in a "special" line of work, we're most afraid of having no heirs. That's why almost all the men in our family got married and had children very early on.

Just like my dad is only in his early forties, but because of the stress these past few days, he looks ten years older.

"Alright, Qiaoqiao, don't worry about me. Go to school properly and don't be like your older brother, fishing three days and sunning two... I've already given up hope that your brother will graduate smoothly. You have to do better." My dad pushed me out.

I know he's afraid of me dying like Mom did, in my early thirties, so he tries to keep me away from their world.

But how can I get away

Every night, a ghostly face of a husband clings to me. Where can I possibly go

As I got off the bus at the school station, I ran into Song Wei. She grabbed my arm and said, "Principal Xie is personally coming to be our homeroom teacher. He said it's to protect the school's reputation and to stop us from spreading rumors... Cut the crap, Xiao Qiao, I believe you're innocent. That Zhang guy's eyes when he looked at you were so creepy, he's definitely not a good person. Maybe he's actually mentally ill and that's why he did this."

I managed a weak smile.

Song Wei asked displeasedly, "Why are you walking so slow You're like a crab, hurry up!"

I'm so embarrassed, how can I leave quickly

That hideous, ghostly husband of mine, seriously, he's not human! What normal person has that much energy and stamina

As I walked to the school gate, a middle-aged woman suddenly rushed up and shouted, "It's you who splashed dirty water on my nephew, isn't it! Just looking at you, you dare say you didn't seduce my nephew! My nephew is dead and still being scolded. Online people are saying he deserved to die, that my ancestors for eight generations are being cursed, why hasn't anyone scolded you, you shameless woman!"

I rubbed my temples, it's Zhang Ban's relative again, how come they're all such eccentrics.

Song Wei stood in front of me and shouted, “You're old enough to know better! Your perfume is suffocating! So what if you're pretty So what if you have a good figure Does that mean you deserve to be bullied by your creepy nephew!”

The middle-aged woman naturally didn't know what shame was. She immediately started tearing at Song Wei's clothes, and there were two other accomplices beside her. Their posture made it clear they intended to strip Song Wei naked.

I rushed up to help immediately. Song Wei was protecting me. If she was humiliated, how could I bear it

"Let go of me! I'm calling the police!" I tugged hard on the middle-aged woman's arm.

At that moment, something suddenly rolled over from across the street at high speed. When I saw it clearly, I screamed in fright —s shouldn't be a problem. After all, humans and ghosts... they are ultimately two sides of the same yin-yang coin.And the gods and demons, are simply beyond our capabilities.Those low-level demons and...
