Chu Beihe frowned slightly.
This was not the first time he saw Jiang Xuxu make this move in front of him.
It's just that she did it relatively covertly last time.
This time it's fair and aboveboard.
His dark eyes were fixed, and he only asked, "What do you have in your hand?"
Jiang Xuxu knew when she heard the voice that he couldn't see.
But it's normal.
Since she came into contact with the mysterious arts, she has also met many people from the mysterious world.
Those people can only see evil spirits and ghosts at most, but they cannot see as many "colors" as she can.
But now that the words had been spoken, Jiang Xuxu had no intention of hiding it from him.
Jiang Xuxu looked at him with a frown on her face and said,
"In my hand, there is golden light."
After a pause, he added, "I took it off your body."
Chu Beihe: ...
"There is a lot of golden light on you." Jiang Xuxu said, "So every time I see you, it's a bit dazzling."
Chu Beihe: ...
He vaguely understood why she had blinked hard every time she saw him before.
"What is the golden light?"
"Generally speaking, golden light only appears on people with great merits. But I asked you and you haven't done anything outstanding except occasionally participating in charity auctions. This golden light is probably earned from the merits you accumulated in your previous life."
Jiang Xuxu said,
"Golden light protects your body, making it immune to all evil. You must have been a great and kind person in your previous life. You can also think of this as a blessing."
As for why it was said to be a rough estimate, it was because Jiang Xuxu couldn't see through his face at all.
In fact, it was very straining for Jiang Xuxu's eyes just to see his face through the golden light.
What Jiang Xuxu didn't see was that when she mentioned the word "good fortune", a barely perceptible sarcasm flashed in Chu Beihe's eyes.
That hint of sarcasm was hidden in the golden light and disappeared in an instant.
When he looked at Jiang Xuxu again, his eyes were calm and indifferent again.
"These golden lights will be useful to you."
He said it in the affirmative, with obvious certainty in his tone.
After all, Chu Beihe is the youngest patriarch of the Chu family, and his mind is clearer than that of ordinary people.
Based on his brief encounters with Jiang Xuxu a few times before, he didn't think she was the type of person who liked to enthusiastically answer questions for others.
But she not only said it, she also said it very carefully.
Combined with the fact that she had touched him secretly before, it was obvious that she had some intentions towards the golden light on her body.
Jiang Xuxu didn't expect that the other party could easily see through her intention before she even opened her mouth, but this did not stop her from admitting it frankly.
"I am indeed somewhat interested in you."
Jiang Xuxu said this seriously, paused, looked into those deep, dark phoenix eyes, and added with a frown,
"I am very interested in your golden light."
She was basically certain that the last time she was able to summon the purple thunder was entirely due to the blessing of his golden light.
In addition, I just saw with my own eyes that the golden light on his body dispelled the resentment that even professionals could not eliminate. It is obvious that this golden light does not simply dispel the evil spirits.
She spoke bluntly, but Chu Beihe didn't hate such bluntness.
He just stared at her, as if waiting for her next words.
However, Jiang Xuxu was slow to speak.
Because just as she was about to speak, her eyes were attracted by an object on the antique shelf behind Chu Beihe.
Chu Beihe frowned as he waited for her to say anything else. Just as he was about to speak out a reminder, he saw Jiang Xuxu standing up suddenly opposite him.
But he walked around him and went straight to the antique shelf behind him.
Chu Beihe's antique display cabinet was filled with collections, but Jiang Xuxu's eyes were fixed on a dead branch covered by a glass cover in the corner of the cabinet.
Black.
Thousand-year-old peach wood struck by lightning.
It was exactly the one her master had!!
At this moment, Jiang Xuxu no longer cared about the golden light. He pointed at the peach branch, his almond eyes burning and serious, and asked him,
"Where did this peach wood come from?"
Seeing her serious expression, Chu Beihe raised his eyebrows slightly.
Let's talk about the collection in his house.
Indeed, only that peach branch has a unique origin.
"A friend left it with me temporarily."
Chu Beihe's voice was calm, but it made Jiang Xuxu's eyes tremble. He asked,
"What friend? Male or female? How old? What's their name? Do you have a photo?"
Four questions from the soul.
She had obviously forgotten that she and he were just acquaintances.
Chu Beihe didn't feel that she was offending him. He was silent for a moment and said,
"A woman, about my age, she didn't say her name."
Chu Beihe said, "She left her things with me temporarily before, and said someone would come to take them away for her."
What he didn't say was that when the man gave him the thing, he chose a place on the antique shelf very familiarly.
In the place where the glass cover is now, there used to be an ancient dagger.
The man took his dagger away and replaced it with the peach branch that looked like a broken piece of wood.
As a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder, Chu Beihe certainly couldn't stand the appearance of such a thing in his study, and it also took up the space on his antique shelf.
But……
He can't get it down.
It was clearly still the same glass cover, but no matter how he tossed it, the cover didn't move at all.
Later, he could only let the branch remain there, and slowly he got used to it.
Chu Beihe wanted to tell Jiang Xuxu that the thing could not be taken down.
But before she could speak, Jiang Xuxu had already reached out.
Chu Beihe saw that the glass cover, which did not move no matter how he moved it, was actually gently taken away by Jiang Xuxu's hand.
