A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 212

Jessie is very diligent, scrubbing and washing everything in the apartment. Even the floor is waxed and the whole apartment looks brand new. Lily is not idle and goes to prepare breakfast.

After a while, Jessie comes running over again.

“Lily, where did you get this?” Jessie raises a stone in front of Lily and says excitedly, “It’s so beautiful, can you give it to me?”

Lily sees that she is holding a stone.

The stone is naturally in a shape of a heart and pink in color; it looks as pure and delicate as lovers’ promise.

She looks at the stone in a daze, “Jessie, where did you find it?”

“Your room.” Jessie says, “I wanted to help you tidy up the suitcase. As soon as I picked it up, this stone fell out of it. Isn’t it a souvenir or something that you bought?”

Lily thinks about going to Hanchi and having a barbeque with John. She had heard the girl on the next table say: If a couple finds a heart shaped stone in the Sea of Stray Birds, it proves that they will never be separated.

John went to the Sea of Stray Birds to find the stone and then stuffed it in her suitcase?

Did he believe that story?

Thinking of him running around the Sea of Stray Birds and looking around the beach full of rocks to find a heart-shaped stone, Lily’s heart fills up with complex feelings.

After the charity dinner, she couldn’t have the chance see John and so she couldn’t even return the necklace to him.

Did he return to Country Y?

“Hey, Lily, I am talking to you!” Seeing that Lily is still lost in a daze, Jessie waves her hands in front of her, “What are you thinking?”

Lily returns to her senses and smiles lightly, “It’s nothing.”

“Then give me this stone.” Jessie says while going to pick up the stone, “I don’t think you like it that much.”

“This is someone else’s” Lily holds the stone in her palm. If it is an ordinary stone, it wouldn’t have mattered, but it has a story, “When I meet him, I will return it.”

Jessie is surprised, “It’s just a stone. Do you want to return it?”

“This stone is different.”

“What is different about it?” Jessie asks curiously, “Can it turn into a handsome prince?”

“No.”

“Then tell me, what is different about it?”

Jessie is absolutely insisting on getting to the bottom of the matter. Lily can’t bear it so she lies that when she came back from Hanchi she also brought a magical bracelet for bringing good luck, which she will give to her.

Jessie is a little superstitious so she accepts immediately; Lily also doesn’t bring up the stone anymore.

As they are eating breakfast, Leigh comes. He has come to pick up Jessie for work. When he sees breakfast laid out on the table, he frankly joins in and starts being too affectionate with Jessie.

Lily can’t bear to see it anymore; she wants to burn these two lovers.

She angrily says, “Refrain from PDA please!”

Originally, she thought that Leigh and Jessie were too different in personalities and would break up after dating for a month at most. Who knew that they would date for this long and Leigh would always be joining them for breakfast!

“If you don’t show affection, it means you are not happy!” Leigh chuckles, “Like David, he always shares pictures of cats and dogs in his WeChat Moments. Why not find a girlfriend if he has that much time?”

“Wow! Really?” Jessie is excited, “I didn’t expect David to have pets.”

“What’s so good about having pets? I would much rather have you!” Leigh kisses her unabashedly, “Come on, baby, eat more of this scallop porridge.”

“I eat this every day; I am tired of it.”

“I’ll have someone make a plate of steamed soup dumplings for you. We will go to pick it up.”

“Also, one plate of shrimp dumplings.”

“Okay!”

The vein on Lily’s forehead is popping as she picks up the broom and drives the two clueless people out of the house, “Get lost! I beg you! Go to work, and don’t come back tonight!”
