Chapter 228 Accidentally stepped on a landmine!
"..." You're kidding me. Do you really think I'd believe such a ridiculous excuse?
Ye Wanxi gave him a disdainful look without any mercy and dropped a bombshell.
"Eldest Brother is showing signs of regaining his memories. Fifth Brother, you love to cause trouble so much, have you thought about how you're going to die when Eldest Brother regains his memories?"
If Qi Yingxuan felt a little guilty after hearing Ye Wanxi say that, then he was just a little guilty.
Hearing her say this now, it's definitely a shock.
"No...it can't be that fast, can it?"
Seeing his sudden cowardice, Xiang Yueqi was both amused and annoyed: "Now you know fear? Weren't you quite smug when I was talking to you before?"
Qi Yingxuan glared at him angrily. "Don't hit someone in the face, because hitting someone in the face hurts their self-esteem!"
Who would have thought that even with his soul so shattered, he could still easily awaken his past life's memories? Was it really because of his junior sister?
With that thought in mind, Qi Yingxuan decisively chose to cling to his junior sister's coattails.
"Junior Sister, you'll help me, right? He's your senior brother, and I'm your senior brother too. You won't just stand by and watch me die, right?"
Ye Wanxi crossed her arms and nodded, saying, "I certainly won't stand by and watch someone die."
Qi Yingxuan was deeply moved: "Junior Sister, you really are..."
Before she could finish speaking, Ye Wanxi added quietly, "I'll help Senior Brother hand over the knife, so that Fifth Senior Brother won't suffer too much when you leave."
Qi Yingxuan: "..."
What the hell?! Handing me a knife? Do you want me to die even faster? I never knew you were this kind of junior sister!
Xiang Yueqi glanced at the person who was squatting in the corner drawing circles in a self-imposed isolation, and brought the topic back to the main business.
"You just mentioned auction houses. Does that guy Wuduan have connections with auction houses?"
"Yes, my third senior brother is the owner of that auction house. I won the bid for what I wanted and brought this back with me."
"A storage ring?" Xiang Yueqi was surprised when he saw the ring on Ye Wanxi's hand.
Hearing the commotion, Qi Yingxuan rushed over again and stared at the storage ring on Ye Wanxi's hand for a while: "That's right, it really is Junior Sister's storage ring. There's only one storage ring in the world that can be so refreshingly ugly."
Ye Wanxi, who had a very strong bias against the ring, didn't like it when people said it was ugly. She immediately snorted and said, "I will also convey this truth to Senior Brother in the future."
"..." No, no, it's not that serious. He just made a habitual jerk. Junior Sister, you weren't like this before. You've been corrupted by Senior Brother!
Xiang Yueqi picked up the storage ring and examined it carefully: "How come the third brother has this? And what's on it..."
There's also a wisp of the eldest brother's lost soul, which was probably left behind intentionally to protect the ring.
"Third Senior Brother said that Eldest Senior Brother entrusted it to him for safekeeping."
Xiang Yueqi and the other person suddenly turned to look at Ye Wanxi: "That's what he said?"
"Um."
Qi Yingxuan was immediately both jealous and angry: "These two guys are definitely in cahoots! Senior Brother would rather give this thing to him than give it to us, is he out of his mind?"
Ye Wanxi's face darkened, and she was about to speak when she heard Xiang Yueqi say, "If Senior Brother were to give it to you, he'd be out of his mind, okay? With your personality, you'd probably lose it somewhere and never find it again."
Ye Wanxi nodded in deep agreement, and the next second she heard Xiang Yueqi say again: "Even if you're going to give it, it should be to me. Really, why did you give it to the third brother? What do I lack compared to the third brother? Back when we were in the sect, I was the one who took care of you all."
"..." You even have to compare this? Are you children?"
but……
"None of you knew about this?"
The two shook their heads in unison, with Qi Yingxuan looking particularly unhappy: "These two guys just like to sneak around and do bad things behind our backs. They haven't changed at all after all these years."
Ye Wanxi's eyes flickered slightly; she already knew what was going on.
"Xiaoxi, what are you going to do?"
Ye Wanxi knew that Xiang Yueqi was referring to the remnant soul in the storage ring: "Senior Brother's soul is still not very stable. I plan to help him recuperate first, and then try to help him merge this remnant soul back into his body."
Xiang Yueqi frowned: "Your idea is correct, but soul fusion is no small matter, especially here. We can't predict what kind of impact it might have, so it's best to be cautious."
"Yeah, I know."
Despite saying that, Ye Wanxi felt that she should have already found someone who knew something about it.
On the other side, Feng Tianyu, who was completely unaware that Ye Wanxi was already eager to help him repair his soul, suddenly received a video call invitation from his mother.
Feng Tianyu hesitated for a moment, then answered the call: "Mom, why are you sending me a video at this time?"
Today, Mrs. Feng was wearing a particularly elegant and beautiful dark blue floral dress, with exquisite makeup, looking as if she was going to attend some kind of high-society banquet.
"You silly child, do I need to pick a time to see you?"
Feng Tianyu didn't say anything, but he had a feeling that his mother seemed a little strange today, though he couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Feng's mother wasn't angry: "Still working? Haven't you gone to the hospital to be with that girl these past two days?"
"It'll be over in a bit."
"Oh, okay." Mrs. Feng nodded, then asked knowingly, "How has she been lately? Is she feeling better?"
Feng Tianyu was unaware that his mother had already sent Du Yihuan to infiltrate the hospital to gather information. Hearing her question, he didn't suspect anything and truthfully replied, "Much better. He's been awake for the past two days and his body is gradually recovering. He'll be able to be discharged after a period of rest."
"That's good, that's good. The young lady has suffered a lot this time, so you must take good care of her. There's nothing in the hospital, so make sure to get her some good food to help her recover."
"Okay, I understand. Mom, is there anything else? If not, I'll hang up now, I'm a bit busy."
"Okay, okay." Feng's mother knew that her son was in a hurry to finish his work so he could go to the hospital to be with his future daughter-in-law, so she hadn't planned to take up too much of his time.
Just before Feng Tianyu hung up the video call, she asked with a faint smile, "Do you think Mom looks good today?"
Feng Tianyu was stunned, looking like he'd seen a ghost. After a long while, he said insincerely, "It looks good."
"What's so interesting about it?"
Feng Tianyu's sense of unease intensified: "Mom?"
"Didn't you say Mom looked good today? What makes her look good?"
"The person is good-looking, and the clothes are good-looking too."
"Anything else?" Madam Feng subtly tossed her hair, revealing the jade bracelet on her wrist.
Unfortunately, her son was clueless and didn't get her point at all.
"Your new hairstyle looks good too."
Mrs. Feng's hands suddenly stopped moving, and after a long while, she gritted her teeth and said, "This hairstyle was changed before the trip."
Feng Tianyu: "..."
Oh no, I accidentally stepped on a landmine!
Mom: I just wanted to show off my bracelet, why is it so hard?! (Angry cat.jpg)
