Chapter 37: Processing The Jade Bangle

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Qin Qing held the fake jade bangle in her hand. It was as if she had found a treasure. Even though she knew that the jade bangle was fake, Qin Qing still liked it.

After all, this was a gift from Chen Ming. Then, she silently gave Chen Ming the thumbs up.

“Chen Ming, it’s all thanks to you. You have such good eyes.”

Qin Qing sighed emotionally.

As she had not had the chance to examine the bangle up close, she had not noticed that it was fake.

Who would have thought that Chen Ming could easily determine the authenticity of the jade bangle without even looking at it carefully? This made her admire him even more.

Chen Ming shook his head helplessly after hearing what Qin Qing said. He looked at her happy face and said, “As long as you like it,.

Qin Qing, on the other hand, laughed. Her eyes never left the fake jade bangle.

After they bought the jade bangle, they continued to walk deeper into the antique street. Along the way, Qin Qing played around with the jade bangle.

Chen Ming raised his eyebrows. He could see how much she liked it. Coincidentally, just as Qin Qing was about to head to another stall, Chen Ming took the opportunity to take the jade bangle.

After taking the jade bangle, he weighed it in his hands. It was light, which made it obvious that it was fake.

Therefore, Chen Ming wanted to take this opportunity to try and process the bangle. Perhaps he might be able to turn fake into real.

He observed the crowd. After making sure that no one would notice him in a quiet corner, Chen Ming turned his back to the crowd and whispered, “System, process this jade bangle.”

However, the system did not reply even after some time.

In the past, the system would always notify him that the processing was successful after Chen Ming finished speaking. However, no matter how long he waited, the system notification he was looking for did not appear.

Chen Ming now knew that the jade bangle could not be processed.

“System, can’t you process the jade bangle?”

Chen Ming whispered the question.

[Host, the system can only process damaged or depleted items. This jade bangle is not damaged, so the system is unable to process it.]

The system replied very quickly this time.

It turned out that he could only process damaged items. Chen Ming nodded his head in surprise.

As the realization struck him, he smelled a familiar fragrance that pulled him back to reality.

He looked up, and as he had expected, the person was Qin Qing.

She had just finished looking at the items in the stall and was skipping toward Chen Ming.

“There was nothing worth seeing in that stall. Let’s continue to shop. Maybe we can find something good elsewhere. As Qin Qing spoke, she took the jade bangle back and played with it in her hand.”

As the jade bangle was fake, it was best not to wear it on her wrist, so she simply twirled it around her fingers repeatedly.

“Alright,” he said. After that, they walked deeper into the antique street.

The deeper they went, the more people there were, and the messier it became.

It was getting so crowded that Chen Ming and Qin Qing were almost separated.

Qin Qing had to hold Chen Ming in one hand and the jade bangle in the other to prevent herself from being lost in the crowd.

At this time, Qin Qing was holding onto the jade bangle with two fingers. She opened one eye and closed the other to closely examine the patterns inside the fake jade.

“Although this jade bangle is fake, the patterns inside are quite nice. I like… Ah!”

However, before she could finish her words, she was interrupted.

There was a commotion in the crowd behind Chen Ming and Qin Qing for some reason. The chaos caused the people behind them to speed up, and Qin Qing was knocked down by someone who came out of nowhere.

When Qin Qing came back to her senses, her hand was empty. The jade bangle was gone. She felt her heart sink. She had heard a clear sound of something glass-like breaking when she fell.

Qin Qing looked down again and saw a broken piece of the jade bangle lying quietly on the ground. The bangle had been broken into multiple pieces.

“My jade bangle!”

Qin Qing covered her mouth with one hand and looked at the broken jade bangle in disbelief. Her eyes were full of regret.

As soon as Chen Ming held Qin Qing in his arms, he noticed that she was in a bad mood. When he followed her line of sight and looked down, he also noticed the broken pieces of the jade bangle.

However, Chen Ming did not feel as regretful as Qin Qing. Instead, he felt a little happy. Was this not just perfect?

Chen Ming could not help but smile.

The fake jade bangle had been destroyed, and he could take this opportunity to use the processing skill to recreate it anew.

However, when he saw Qin Qing’s regretful look, Chen Ming quickly comforted her, “Qing Qing, I promise you that I will pick out a better jade bangle for you soon.”

Qin Qing’s bad mood was somewhat alleviated by his words.

Qin Qing stared into Chen Ming’s eyes and quietly said, “Alright!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Ming weaved through the crowd and carefully picked up the eight pieces of the broken bangle. He wrapped them up and put them away carefully.

The jade bangle was not worth a single cent now, but that would change after it was processed.

As for Qin Qing, she was confused by Chen Ming’s behavior, but chalked it up to him trying to be environmentally and civically conscious by picking up the trash.

Just like that, Chen Ming and Qin Qing continued to walk around for a while longer. Then, because the sky was getting dark, they chose to go home.

When they reached home, Chen Ming’s parents were resting, but had left the lights on in the living room.

“It’s getting late. You should rest early.”

Chen Ming helped Qin Qing take off her coat and hung it on the hanger as he said this casually.

“Yeah, you too.” Qin Qing had already forgotten the unhappiness of having her jade bangle destroyed. She gave Chen Ming a sweet smile, then went off to wash up and get ready to rest.

Chen Ming took the opportunity to return to his room.

He took out the bag that contained the fragments of the fake jade bangle from his pocket. Fortunately, there had been no further commotion or ruckus, so the fragments had remained relatively intact.

Chen Ming pieced the fragments together and realized that they still formed a whole.

After making sure that the door was locked, Chen Ming said eagerly, “System, please process this jade bangle.”

[Ding! Congratulations! The processing was successful. You have received a top-grade jade bangle!]

This time, the jade bangle was successfully processed!

Chen Ming’s lips curled up as he examined the new jade bangle.

With one look, he was completely enraptured.

It had only taken him moments to realize that the previous jade bangle was fake due to its rough patterns, which was further confirmed by its extremely light weight.

However, this new jade bangle was completely different!

It was a pure, natural green color, and its slight transparent nature was very eye-catching. It was very hard to tear his eyes away from its beauty.

There were no flaws inside the jade bangle. It was a work of natural art!

It was also significantly heavier.

This jade bangle was fit for royalty!

Chen Ming was certain that Qin Qing would love this brand new jade bangle.
