1613 Learning the Truth
When Chi Shuyan came out of the shower, the man had already come upstairs and was sitting on the couch and reading a magazine.
Compared with last night, Chi Shuyan wasn’t as embarrassed and nervous tonight. She very naturally called out for the man to go and take a shower.
Seeing the man get up, Chi Shuyan thought that he was going to go and take a shower. She sat on the edge of the bed and took out the hairdryer. As soon as she took it out and plugged it in, the man took the hairdryer and sat behind her to dry her hair.
Chi Shuyan: …
The man’s movements were especially skilled and gentle, and Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but recall the good times they had before. Her eyes immediately softened, and she couldn’t help but tease, “Why did you come upstairs so soon?”
You didn’t have fun with the two children?
She still couldn’t imagine this man playing with a kid, mainly because his face was especially serious no matter what.
“Mm, they didn’t want to stay with me any longer, so I came upstairs!” Qi Zhenbai’s expression was a bit helpless. In fact, he had a lot of expectations for his and his wife’s future children, but he really didn’t know how to get along with kids.
In the past, the juniors at the old residence didn’t like to get close to him. Occasionally, they would tremble in fear. Those who didn’t know better would think that he would eat them!
Qi Zhenbai was mentally far more mature compared with his peers. He hadn’t been able to get along with the younger generation when he was young, and it was even more the case now.
According to Qi Hao, when he just sat and said nothing, he was like a heavy and oppressive mountain. No one dared to breathe.
Although this was a bit of an exaggeration, it also showed that Qi Zhenbai’s dignity and character in the old residence really didn’t appeal to the younger generation.
Chi Shuyan thought about the man’s serious character and couldn’t help but laugh inwardly. She touched her hair and saw that it was almost dry. She hurriedly took the hairdryer and had the man behind her take a shower first.
Qi Zhenbai stroked his wife’s smooth and almost dry hair, then put the hairdryer back in the drawer before he went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Taking advantage of when the man was in the bathroom, Chi Shuyan hurriedly took out the ring from her pocket.
At first, she thought that the man had bought this ring. Who would have thought that when she took it out, she saw a gold ring with a big gem on it.
This rich gold color rendered her speechless.
Given Qi Zhenbai’s taste, she felt that he wouldn’t buy such a tacky ring for her.
Chi Shuyan felt that there was something strange about the ring which the man had given to her. After taking a closer look, she realized that it wasn’t an ordinary ring at all, but a storage ring.
The space inside the ring was quite big at about 200 square meters, which was the size of a football field.
Since she had the Cosmos Ring, she was still calm. However, when she saw what was inside the gold ring, Chi Shuyan’s eyes widened in shock.
It was mainly because the things in this storage ring were too lavish.
Not only were there all sorts of rare medicinal herbs that were more than 1,000 years old, there were also many top-grade jade stones. What was even more unbelievable to Chi Shuyan was that there was a large number of supreme-grade spirit stones hidden inside the ring, and each one contained dense spiritual energy.
In addition to the jade stones, there were also many jade beads. It had to be pointed out that spirit stones and jade beads were excellent items for cultivation, especially jade beads, which were even rarer than supreme-grade spirit stones.
As for spirit stones, there were some ancient martial families with strong foundations now, but there were very few supreme-grade goods. Generally speaking, supreme-grade spirit stones were also top-grade goods that outsiders couldn’t touch.
Chi Shuyan was alarmed by the herbs, spirit stones and jade beads. There were also a lot of other things. She also found a lot of gold stored in boxes in this storage ring.
Chi Shuyan counted dozens of boxes of gold. She could only wonder if the original owner of this storage ring was a gold addict. She was rendered speechless.
Apart from gold, some jewelry, and some Blood Pills, she also discovered many types of cultivation techniques for evil cultivators, such as refining puppets or blood sacrifices; most of these cultivation techniques were extremely cruel and sinister.
Not only that, she also realized that this evil cultivator was very experienced in body possession. She found a notebook, which recorded how the evil cultivator’s disciple, Zhuang Yanru, had found him a rare body blessed by the heavens.
It was a pity that the heavens valued this body very highly, so the evil cultivator had to take his time coming up with a plan.
Seeing this, Chi Shuyan seemed to have a thought, and her face suddenly darkened, especially since the name Zhuang Yanru was too familiar.
If Qin Qing hadn’t used this woman’s name often to pick a fight with her back then, Chi Shuyan might not have remembered Zhuang Yanru’s name so clearly.
The more Chi Shuyan thought about it, the uglier her face became. An absurd and terrifying thought flashed through her mind, especially when she flipped through the other party’s notes. She discovered that the incident at Dashan Village had been their doing. The notebook also mentioned how they had used the fourth son of the Qi family and plotted against Qi Zhenbai in various ways. Chi Shuyan’s face turned even more livid and pale.
From beginning to end, what happened in the village had been a trap for Qi Zhenbai. She simply didn’t dare dwell on it, let alone how this man had suddenly disappeared for more than half a month and gone to Longhu Mountain.
It was most likely that the fourth son of the Qi family, this evil cultivator, and Zhuang Yanru had plotted against him. No, it was this evil cultivator who had possessed the man and seriously injured him.
When she thought of how an evil cultivator had tried to snatch Qi Zhenbai’s body and how Qi Zhenbai had almost died, Chi Shuyan felt especially scared and regretful.
She recalled the abnormality in the man’s body. The more she thought about it, the more scared and anxious she became. While her heart was in a mess, the man came out of the shower with a towel around him. Seeing her sitting on the couch in a daze, he was quite puzzled. It wasn’t until he saw her holding the ring he had given her that Qi Zhenbai’s eyebrows relaxed a little. His thin lips curved up and he was in a good mood. “This ring should be a storage ring. There should be a lot of things you need inside.”
