Chapter 445 Not a Substitute
Seeing that he didn't believe her, Nie Yao opened her notebook, took out a few restored photos of the pharaohs, and handed them to him: "Take a look for yourself, don't you think they look similar?"
Li Jinxing took the photo she handed him and looked at it for a few times, but still didn't see any similarities. He shook his head and smiled as he returned the photo to her. He tapped her nose and jokingly said, "I think you've become obsessed with studying it!"
Nie Yao curled her lips and muttered softly, "If you don't believe it, forget it!"
She carefully put these treasured restored photos back into the notebook, fearing that they would be damaged.
Li Jinxing found this funny again and raised his eyebrows and said, "Yaoyao, you can be obsessed with archaeology and culture, but you are not allowed to be obsessed with these pharaohs. No matter how handsome they are, they have been dead for thousands of years!"
Nie Yao, who was drinking orange juice, almost spit it out when she heard him say that. She quickly put down the glass, shook her head and said with a smile: "Li Jinxing, there is a limit to your jealousy! You also said that these ancient Egyptian pharaohs are all thousand-year-old mummified corpses!"
Being jealous of a living person is one thing, but being jealous of a dead person, and one who has been dead for thousands of years...
"I'm serious!" Li Jinxing held her face, letting her look straight into his eyes, and said slowly and seriously, word by word: "No matter how much you like my appearance, you are not allowed to treat me as a substitute for some pharaoh! I am me, and they are them. No matter how powerful kings they were in their lifetime, it has nothing to do with me!"
"Of course I know..." Nie Yao nodded with amusement and helplessness, and sighed softly, "I never thought of you as a substitute for the Pharaoh. You are a living modern person, while they have been dead for thousands of years!"
Li Jinxing then revealed a satisfied smile, took her hand and placed it on his heart, and reminded her with a smile: "This is the heartbeat of a living person, you can feel it carefully!"
Nie Yao could only feel his strong heartbeat, sighed softly, and turned to look at the bodyguards sitting behind them, feeling a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, these bodyguards were wearing blindfolds and seemed to be sleeping, not looking at them. Nie Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief and pulled her hand back from Li Jinxing's big palm.
After finishing a glass of juice, Nie Yao put the hieroglyphic table back into the notebook, and picked up the hand-drawn heirloom of Li Jinxing and took a few glances at it.
That heirloom looks very much like a beautiful dressing box. It wouldn’t be surprising if it was the dressing box of the female pharaoh Hatshepsut!
But why do those who are hiding behind the scenes and plotting against Li Jinxing have to get such a thing?
Nie Yao has never figured it out from before until now!
No matter how valuable it is, it is just a cultural relic. Why do they leave behind other valuable cultural relics and insist on getting this cultural relic that looks like a dressing box?
Moreover, how could this cultural relic become the heirloom of Li Jinxing's family?
"Li Jinxing..." Nie Yao didn't know how long she had been thinking, and couldn't help but called Li Jinxing softly. Seeing that he didn't answer, she looked up, only to find that he had closed his eyes and began to doze off.
She didn't wake him up, but asked the flight attendant for a blanket, gently covered him with it, and lowered his backrest so that he could sleep comfortably on the plane.
On the way to Switzerland, except for Nie Yao, everyone else was dozing quietly. Nie Yao was looking at the notebook she had sorted out, and her eyelids began to twitch unconsciously. She closed her eyes and fell asleep accidentally.
