Buddha Beads.
Before Jiaojiao faced her last death calamity at twelve, she never parted with this Buddha bead. Ruan Hao had asked for it for her. After the calamity passed, to redeem the spirits killed by Old Lady Yuan, the Ruan Family conducted several rituals. The last ritual took place shortly after the Master's death. During the ritual, Ruan Jiaojiao even burned this Buddha bead, hoping it would allow the spirits to rest in peace and be reincarnated.
But now, this bead, which had long been burned, was being worn by Lu Meng.
Before Lu Meng could dodge, Duan Xi picked up the bead and asked him, "Is this the one you brought with you at birth?"
Lu Meng instinctively looked at Lu Xian.
Lu Xian noticed the sound of footsteps drawing closer from the other side of the room. He immediately stepped forward, snatched the bead from Duan Xi's grasp, and pulled Lu Meng behind him.
"What's going on here?" Zhao Li came out, holding two bags, and asked in surprise upon seeing the scene.
