Chapter 370: Chapter 370: How to Verify
Jiang Xue was taken aback, but quickly reacted and pulled her hand away from Shangguan Wenbin, saying, "It’s just a bracelet, what’s so strange about it."
"No, it’s not just a bracelet. It can also verify whether someone is of the Shangguan family’s bloodline."
"Oh, how does it verify?" Jiang Xue appeared interested, and Shangguan Wenbin smiled, saying, "It’s simple. If someone is of the Shangguan family’s bloodline, a drop of blood will be absorbed by the bracelet. Otherwise, it won’t."
Jiang Xue was stunned, staring at the bracelet in a daze. She had accidentally unlocked her space, seemingly without having dripped blood onto the bracelet. How did this happen?
While she was puzzled, the Little Fox in her space spoke up, "Stupid woman, when you died in your previous life, your heart’s blood splattered directly on the bracelet. Otherwise, how could you have unlocked the seal and opened the space?"
Well, she had actually forgotten about that.
Jiang Xue’s dazed look made Shangguan Wenbin think she didn’t believe him, so he said, "Jiang Xue, you can take the bracelet off, and we’ll do an experiment."
"You don’t mean to drip blood onto the bracelet, do you?"
"Precisely!"
Hearing this, Jiang Xue did not immediately agree but instead asked the Little Fox in her space, "Little Fox, is it okay to do this?"
"It’s fine, just a few drops of blood. It won’t cause any problem, and it might even bring you a surprise," the Little Fox said mysteriously.
Hearing the Little Fox mentioning a surprise, Jiang Xue was reminded of something from a few days ago. She wanted to say something to it, but seeing Shangguan Wenbin watching her intently, she let it go and replied, "Alright, I also want to see if this bracelet is as magical as you say."
"Okay, should I go first, or do you want to?" Shangguan Wenbin became excited. As long as Jiang Xue agreed, he would have a way to convince her that they did indeed share a blood relationship.
"Wait!" Seeing Shangguan Wenbin looking eager to start, Jiang Xue suddenly said, "As you said, if we both have the Shangguan family’s blood, it proves nothing. Shouldn’t we find someone who isn’t from the Shangguan family to test with us?"
"Oh, right, I got so excited that I forgot such an important thing." Shangguan Wenbin patted his head, looking remorseful.
They were in a coffee shop at the moment, and there were still several people around. So, Shangguan Wenbin thought for a moment and walked directly toward a girl who had been casting flirtatious glances their way, saying, "Miss, could you do me a favor?"
"Sure!" The girl accepted readily. However, upon hearing that Shangguan Wenbin only wanted a drop of her blood, she hesitated.
But when she saw Shangguan Wenbin looking at her earnestly, she couldn’t help but blush, and somewhat dazedly agreed.
Jiang Xue watched as Shangguan Wenbin easily charmed a girl, and marveled to herself, "Male beauty is indeed captivating."
With help, the blood-dripping process quickly took place. It went smoothly, as Shangguan Wenbin had said—his and Jiang Xue’s blood truly was absorbed by the bracelet, but the helping girl’s was not.
Proving his point, Shangguan Wenbin was very pleased, and Jiang Xue was also smiling happily. To be honest, she was quite fond of Shangguan Wenbin. If he really turned out to be her relative, she would be very happy.
After all, the Jiang family had only her as a child. Although Father Jiang and Mrs. Jiang treated her well, she still longed for a peer relative.
