How many people stand in front of this kind of exploitative institution, hesitating and hesitating, but finally have to step in solemnly, handing over their most beloved and valued things with both hands, and pawning them?
Her fingers touched the necklace around her neck for the last time. This was the last thought Chu Yilun left for her. When the incident happened suddenly, when she learned the bad news of Chu Yilun's accidental death, Rose Manor had been closed for sale.
Not a single thing was brought out, including the countless gifts that Chu Yilun had given her since she was a child.
This last gift around her neck had a special meaning for her, as if to represent it, the last connection between her and Chu Yilun was also severed with a knife - she was sure that this
Once the necklace is pawned, she may never be able to redeem it in her lifetime.
After hesitating again and again, I walked through the door.
The interior is luxurious and noble, with gleaming gold and embroidered silver everywhere. It doesn't look like a sinister pawn shop, but more like a five-star hotel, rich and prosperous, like a gentle and intoxicating country.
A staff member in gray uniform came forward politely and said, "Hello, Miss, what kind of business do you want to do? Do you need my service?"
"I want to pawn a piece of jewelry."
"Miss, come with me, please—"
Cheng Lili followed the staff to the transparent glass window, carefully took off the necklace around his neck, and handed it over.
Someone inside took it and took a look at the gorgeous tassel-shaped diamond necklace, which seemed to be inlaid with countless shining stars, and his eyes seemed to light up.

Cheng Liuli smiled and said lightly, "What do you think?"
"Oh yes, you are the owner of this "Star Glimmer", how could you not know its origin?" The expert-looking man nodded frequently, "This is a coming-of-age gift made for Elizabeth II by the royal family on her eighteenth birthday.

"Ahem..." The man who looked like a manager interrupted the academic man's ramblings with a glare and an exaggerated cough.
"If you want to pawn it, we can only offer five million yuan!"
Deep in Cheng Liuli's pupils, a bright light flashed past!
Off-topic: The number of comments finally increased. Longlong burst into tears of gratitude and doubled his motivation. Dear friends, please continue to support... Also, I saw some friends doubting whether Chu Yilun is still alive. In fact, there is no need to worry at all. Allen is
