“There seems to be only one key to the Luban mechanism lock. If it can’t be opened, then it can’t be opened…” Ye Wangchuan looked at her in surprise.
Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows and showed him the keyhole. “Do you think it looks like the Ji family’s Patriarch’s emblem?”
Ye Wangchuan restrained himself and seriously took a look. He realized that the keyhole’s strange shape was indeed very similar to the shape of the Ji family Patriarch’s family emblem Qiao Nian showed him before. Then, he connected it to the fact that the owner of the box was Ji Qing, and everything made sense…
He returned the box to the girl and asked in a low voice, “Where did you put the
Patriarch’s emblem? I’ll get Gu San to bring it over for you.”
“It should be in my room. Let me think…” Qiao Nian held her head and thought for a while. Then, she looked up and said as if she had remembered something, “If it’s not in the drawer of my computer desk, it’s in the drawer of the bedside table, or in the school bag that I don’t use… Tell Gu San to look for it. It should be in one of these places.”
Ye Wangchuan did not expect her to be so casual about the Ji family’s Patriarch’s symbol. He was a little helpless but not surprised. Before leaving, he said to her, “I’ll go. Gu San is careless. He might not be able to find it.” “Wait.” Qiao Nian suddenly stopped him.
Ye Wangchuan turned around as if he did not understand why she suddenly called him and asked, “Is there anything else?”
Qiao Nian stared at him for a long time and then asked in a muffled voice,
“You’re not angry anymore?”
Ye Wangchuan was stunned and instantly laughed in anger. His thin lips curled, and he frivolously said, “So Goddess Qiao knows that I’m angry? I still thought that Goddess Qiao had never cared about what we think.”
He would call her Nian Nian when he was in a good mood. When he was in a bad mood, he would call her Goddess Qiao. It was so obvious. She knew when he was angry even if there was nothing wrong with her intelligence.
But this time, she was the one who felt guilty.
Qiao Nian felt a headache coming on. Not caring about his mockery, she lowered her eyes to hide her emotions and said, “It’s not that I don’t care.
“I thought it was too dangerous, and it’s my private matter. I didn’t want to implicate you and Bright Gate or get you guys into danger. I didn’t tell Feng Yu, either.”
Ye Wangchuan was angered by her words, but his anger was also extinguished by her words. He immediately returned to his senses, gritted his teeth, and smiled. “So my status is the same as Feng Yu’s?”
As a boyfriend, he was now on the same level as Feng Yu.
“No.” Qiao Nian frowned, not understanding why what he cared about was always different from what she wanted to express. “Isn’t the main point that this matter was very dangerous and my private matter? I didn’t want to implicate you.”
Ye Wangchuan narrowed his eyes and looked at her lips dangerously. “My focus is that I have the same position as Feng Yu in your heart.”
Qiao Nian’s eyelids twitched.
Ye Wangchuan saw her slightly pale lips and immediately dismissed the thought. Rubbing his eyebrows, he opened the door and said, “I’ll discuss this with you in the future. I’ll find your key first. Rest and wait for me to come back. ”
Then, he closed the door.
Qiao Nian looked at the closed door and then at the box again. She pursed her lips and fell into deep thought.
Why did Ji Qing place the box in the Ji family’s Punishment Hall? What exactly was in the box? Why did no one in the Ji family discover it for 20 years?
