[I can attest that I did indeed interrogate him; he couldn't stop talking about Ji Qian and constantly threatened Director Liu.]
[And then there's the triple question: Do you think Ji Qian will believe it? Do you think Ji Qian will forgive you? Do you think Ji Qian will rush over and attack you?]
This is brilliant! Xu Qi is truly a chosen henchman!
I remember this guy was supposed to be a cool and aloof male god.
Now I understand why my previous company wouldn't let him speak.
"Fine." Ji Qian resignedly squatted down with the small hammer in her hand.
Han Mengyao thought Ji Qian was going to pry up the floor tiles with a shovel, but she didn't expect Ji Qian to smash the floor tiles with a single hammer blow.
As for the shovel, it was just a tool Ji Qian used to collect the rubble.
[Sister Qian is awesome! This is the first time I've ever seen someone smash floor tiles with a small hammer!]
[This little gadget is surprisingly powerful?]
Are you sure it's the small hammer that's powerful, and not that my sister Qian is strong?
[Ji Qian must be strong; I have the same kind of hammer, and it's hard to even smash a phone with it.]
[Smashing your phone? Hey there, tell us your story!]
[I seriously suspect that Ji Qian developed her strength by dragging Xu Qi away to escape when she was a child.]
[Such a reasonable conjecture! I'm speechless.]
Thinking about it carefully, Ji Qian's life wasn't easy either; she had to drag Xu Qi around to escape danger since she was a child.
As the rubble was removed, the true face beneath the paving stones gradually came into view—there was an iron box buried there!
The top of the box was covered in dust. Ji Qian didn't want to get her hands dirty, so she gestured for Xu Qi to lift the box. But no matter how many times Xu Qi tried, the box wouldn't budge.
Ji Qian looked at Xu Qi, who had collapsed on the ground, feeling helpless. She had no choice but to resign herself to carrying the boxes out herself.
When Ji Qian finally lifted the entire box out, she realized that the iron box was much bigger than she had imagined.
The iron box is rectangular. Although it is only as wide as a floor tile, it is more than a meter high.
Looking at the strange shape, Ji Qian suddenly had a bad feeling. She quickly took a few steps back and moved away from the iron box.
Exhausted to the point of being unable to stand, Xu Qi saw this scene and scrambled to catch up with Ji Qian.
Only Han Mengyao remained standing there, staring at the box with great interest.
"Let's open this box!" Upon hearing Han Mengyao's enthusiastic suggestion, Ji Qian quickly shook her head:
"No, there's no need to rush. We don't even know what's inside yet."
"Wouldn't opening it confirm the decision?"
"But the box is locked! We can't open it without the key."
Woman, have you forgotten how bravely you picked locks with your bare hands?
[Hilarious! This woman will say anything to save her life.]
[I don't see anything wrong with this box, why is Ji Qian so scared?]
Look at the width and height of this box, doesn't it resemble a small coffin?
[Thanks for reminding me, I'm getting goosebumps.]
No way, I'm home alone.
I'm already getting ready to go out and watch it with a friend.
People who livestream while strolling around the streets are fearless, since there are people all around them anyway.
[Are you so sure they're human?]
Hahaha, we've snatched the bamboo shoots!
Seeing that Ji Qian was unwilling to come and help, Han Mengyao picked up the hammer from the ground and was about to break the lock herself when Ji Qian quickly stopped her.
"Wait, wait a minute! Let's move it to the front yard first before opening it. It's more popular there, and it'll be easier to handle if anything happens."
Han Mengyao pondered for a moment and felt that Ji Qian's words made sense, so she agreed with the idea.
However, the box was too heavy, and Han Mengyao and Xu Qi couldn't move it an inch no matter how hard they tried. So Ji Qian had to suppress her fear and carry the box again.
The three walked to the front yard, which had been completely renovated.
On the long table in the middle of the courtyard, various offerings, ingots, and incense were placed.
The Qian family of three, along with Wang Dahai and Chunhua, were gathered around the table, sniffing the items on it with satisfied expressions.
