Chapter 620


    Seeing her wet hair, Adam got up and gave her a dry towel. "You''re doing it again."


    "I''m used to you drying my hair." Tracey chuckled and sat down on the sofa, letting him dry her hair.


    She was really not used to it when he was away. It was like a guy who was used to steak had to eat


    carrots every day.


    Adam had been taking good care of her like her housekeeper. Without him, it was like losing her


    phone.


    It felt so good to see him again. They made love all night long. Adam had work to do the next day,


    so she offered to go out on her own.


    It wasn''t her first trip abroad, but he told her to take an assistant with her.


    When he left, she was still sleeping. The moment she woke up, it was already ten o''clock in the


    morning. The hickeys on her showed how crazy they werest night.


    Tracey refused the assistant and took the city tour bus herself. She had long wanted to travel freely


    in an unfamiliar country.


    Dressed simply and without makeup, she enjoyed the sights like amon tourist.


    From time to time, she would send her selfies to Adam. Adam, who was having a meeting, got


    excited when he saw these beautiful photos. He wanted to travel with her and take lots of pictures


    of her.

    When the project was officiallyunched and she graduated from college, he would marry her and


    take her on a honeymoon.


    Tracey went alone to the Colosseum. Those magnificent buildings were announcing to the world


    that this ce was once prosperous and magnificent.


    When the sun was about to set, she was attracted by an antique store. All the antiques came from


    China.


    A Chinese antique store in Rome? For some reason, she walked in.


    It was decorated in a very old-fashioned way. The clerk greeted her. "Miss, what can I do for you?"


    "I just want to browse."


    Tracey didn''t intend to buy anything. She was just a little interested in this store.


    Most of the antiques here predated the Qing dynasty in China. "This one is beautiful." Tracey


    pointed to the red jade bracelet ced on the exhibition shelf.


    Red jade was rare. Green jade was mostly seen on the market.


    "Miss, you have a good taste. This bracelet is bright and is made of the finest jade. But a lot of


    people don''t like it because they think red means unlucky."


    The clerk took out the bracelet and said, "Miss, have a try. It has been here for a long time, and no


    one wants it."


    Tracey did not want it, either. But she was embarrassed to say no, so she wore the bracelet on her


    wrist.


    Aydan had given her a supreme bracelet as a gift, but she seldom wore that. She found that she


    preferred this red jade bracelet.


    The red jade made her look whiter. The clerk said, "Miss, it looks good on you."


    "This must be aged." Tracey looked at the bracelet. It must have been made many years ago.


    "Looks like you''re the expert. Well, everything we have here is aged. China went to wars after the


    fall of the Qing Dynasty.


    "Some prominent families quietly left China to escape the war and went elsewhere.


    "Some fled to Southeast Asian countries, others to the United States or Europe. Although they were


    loaded, it was difficult for them to survive in a foreign country. Gradually, they declined.


    "In order to survive, their descendants started selling things. That''s where most of our stuffes


    from.


    "Miss, why don''t you buy it? Maybe ites from your family." The clerk gave a mysterious smile.


    Tracey smiled. "That''s impossible."


    "Miss, I''m not saying that to sell it. This ce used to be a pawnshop, and what we want most is to


    return these things to their rightful owners.


    "Some people pawned their favorite things because they had to. We see ourselves as keepers, and


    we hope the owners will be able to redeem them.


    "Everything has a spirit. This jade bracelet has been here for hundreds of years. My grandpa said


    no one ever wanted it.


    "But you had your eye on it as soon as you walked in. Isn''t it a connection?" The clerk said gently.


    "Well, I do like this bracelet. How much is it?" Tracey decided to buy it.


    "In today''s market, that would be the price." The clerk pressed a number on her calctor.


    This price was kind of high. But Tracey worked in the jewelry industry, and she thought this bracelet


    was worth it.


    The jade bracelet was still on her wrist. She didn''t even want to take it off.


    Although the jade bracelet that Aydan had given her was more valuable, she only saw that as a


    work of art.


    This bracelet seemed to mean something to her. It had her at hello.


    She rarely had anything she liked so much. Maybe it was indeed a connection, or it came from her


    family.


    She paid the bill and left with the jade bracelet.


    After Tracey left, the clerk went to the inner room. "Boss, she bought that red jade bracelet."


    "After all these years, it finally happened..." The man sighed softly.


    Tracey returned to the hotel. Adam rushed back and said, "I''m sorry. I said I''d have dinner with you,


    but I was too busy."


    "It doesn''t matter. I just came back."


    "How''s your day?" Adam took her out for dinner, and she shared with him the bracelet thing.


    "Hey, is it beautiful?"


    "Red jade?" Adam saw at a nce that it was a red jadeite of excellent quality. "You like this?"


    "Not really. I just thought it was kind of familiar."


    "Well, it''s gettingte. Let''s have dinner."


    "Sure."
