Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee by KIKI

Chapter 974: The Tale Passed Down Tina sipped her tea and gestured for her master to continue speaking. Whether it was true or not, she could judge for herself.

"Alina must have mentioned it to you-that thing has some history. If we trace back about two hundred years, there was a family of military lineage. Later, because they wielded too much power, someone found an excuse to annihilate them. If any descendants survived, they would only be from distant branches."

"But there's a historical anecdote about this family that might be the clue you're looking for." "Anecdote?"

Tina raised her head and glanced at her master indifferently. "Are you sure you didn't just make

this up?"

Master Tam's expression nearly fell apart as he slammed his teacup onto the table in protest. "You impudent girl! Your master is a man of reputation and status. Why would I bother making up a story just to save you a bit of money?"

"Don't forget, I gave you a wedding gift. I even brought out some of my rare treasures-things your brothers couldn't even dream of getting."

Tina lowered her head and drank her tea, clearly uninterested. The old man loved to ramble, and now he was dragging in events from two hundred years ago. How was she supposed to believe him?

And besides, she wasn't blind. The wedding money he gave her was pooled from his brothers, and the so-called "rare treasure" was just a few calligraphy scrolls he wrote himself. Other than the cost of framing them, she couldn't figure out where his generosity had gone.

She retorted bluntly, "If it's so precious, should I return it to you?"

"You wouldn't dare!"

"Who takes back gifts? Hurry up and knock on wood to ward off the bad luck! You just don't appreciate anything. If you put those scrolls outside, people would fight over them!"

Master Tam clutched his chest in frustration and glared at Tina. "You ungrateful girl! Where was I? You've completely thrown me off track."

Tina said nothing.
