However, as he was himself fleeing for his life at the time, he did not think too deeply on it.
Later on, not long after he had escaped, he realized that the jade pendant at his waist had suddenly vanished.
It was because he wanted to turn back to search for it that those people were able to capture him, leading to the subsequent tragedy.
But why did Ye Jiu say that she was born with this jade pendant on her?
Could it be that Ye Jiu was the child that the woman was holding in her arms back then?
And that his jade pendant hadn't disappeared without cause, but had fallen onto Ye Jiu during their collision, and because she was too young to know the truth at the time, she believed it to be with her from birth?
With so many doubts, even Sikong Mo couldn't figure it out.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say that the jade pendant was his family heirloom, but seeing the protective manner in which Ye Jiu held it, Sikong Mo knew that even if he did tell her, she might not believe him.
