"There's one more thing I need to mention. Your aunt's soul power is almost depleted. I've calculated that I'll have to send her to reincarnation in seven days."
It's cruel, but there's no other way.
Ghosts are always considered to be yin entities, and staying in them for too long can affect a person's fortune and lifespan.
This is also for the sake of the Chu family and the Mo family.
"Isn't there any way to extend the time?"
Mo Wenqing couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment upon hearing her say that.
During this time, my aunt returned, my grandmother woke up, and the relationship between the Mo family and the Chu family was also resolved.
Those of them who were younger were naturally happy to see it happen.
But now Miss Si says that her aunt doesn't have much time left in this world.
Si Jinyan silently shook his head.
Xu Wei, who was standing next to her, placed her hand on her hand and asked with a smile, "Does this mean my days are numbered too?"
She could sense that even with the Soul Nourishing Array's assistance, she wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.
People who should have died twenty years ago are able to see this surrounding scenery again.
It was all worth it to be able to see her daughters and sons.
Seeing Si Jinyan lower her eyes, Xu Wei knew that she was also very reluctant to part with him.
"Even if it's just for one day, Mom is very content."
"And there's still a week left, I'm so happy!"
"Mother!"
Si Jinyan could no longer hold back and hugged Xu Wei tightly.
She seemed to feel Xu Wei's warm body temperature.
This is a mother's embrace.
"Mother!"
Xu Wei touched her face and smiled with relief.
"To make others laugh."
Thinking that there were still two men there, Xu Wei patted her on the back.
"They can just pretend they didn't see it."
Si Jinyan didn't want to care about anything else; all she wanted to do right now was hug her mother.
"Yes, yes, don't worry about us."
Gu Cixi nodded, then looked up at a 45-degree angle to indicate that she hadn't seen it.
Mo Wenqing has already messaged Xiao Luoan: "Your boyfriend was almost bullied by that old woman from the Lin family today."
[If you don't pull a "cool weather and broken forest" stunt, you'd be doing a disservice to your CEO persona, wouldn't you?]
Xiao Luoan replied to the message very quickly.
I'm not a domineering CEO, but I'll consider your suggestion.
If we're talking about domineering CEOs, Gu Cixi is probably the most domineering of the three.
He has an extremely aggressive appearance, with cold features. When he doesn't speak, his eyes look at everyone as if they are dead.
Moreover, they highly value the other party's worth.
I never befriend useless people.
"By the way, guess who bought that piece of land in the west of the city today?"
After sending the message, Mo Wenqing suddenly remembered this matter and shared it with Si Jinyan.
Si Jinyan noticed a hint of anticipation on his face.
"It should be the Jiang family."
She guessed.
Mo Wenqing touched his nose, looking somewhat uncomfortable. He wanted to see the surprised look on Si Jinyan's face.
How did you guess it so easily?
Gu Cixi said coldly from the side, "You have too many expressions on your face."
"If you ask me to guess, it must be someone closely related to me. I can't think of anyone else but the Jiang family."
Si Jinyan said it wasn't that she was smart, it was just that she was too easy to guess.
During our casual conversation, Xiao Luoan unexpectedly arrived here.
She really didn't expect that Xiao Luoan, such a busy person, would come.
"Young Master Xiao, what a coincidence!"
Gu Cixi couldn't help but greet him, though her tone was anything but friendly.
They occupy his hotel room every day without paying.
He also had to treat them to good food and drinks.
He's such a shrew.
"fine."
Xiao Luoan naturally knew why he was unhappy; it was simply because he had stayed at his hotel without paying.
He's such a cheapskate.
"Luo An is here, please have a seat."
Upon hearing that this was a conversation between brothers, Xu Wei immediately pushed the chair next to her, gesturing for him to sit down and talk.
“That piece of land was given to the Jiang family, but the Jiang family can’t afford to take it.”
Gu Cixi spoke up.
"A project worth 3 billion yuan! Where would the Jiang family get such a large cash flow?"
"So now that they've won the bid, they'll definitely find someone to invest."
The three brothers analyzed the feasibility of starting the project.
"The deadline set by the authorities is September, so there's not much time left."
"Didn't the Jiang family demand that the Xiao family give up this project when they got engaged to you?"
Gu Cixi briefly mentioned what had happened before.
Seeing Si Jinyan there made me realize that it wasn't a wise thing to bring this up in front of her current partner.
However, Si Jinyan did not seem to change his expression at all. He leisurely drank his beverage and chatted with Xu Wei from time to time.
He finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, so it's clear they already had the funds back then, so this time it was just a matter of perfect timing, location, and people."
Xiao Luoan nodded; the Jiang family had always wanted this project.
It is clear that the Jiang family's financial resources are much larger than they imagined.
It's even possible that the Jiang family has been hiding their talents all these years, just so that one day they can become famous in the capital.
After dinner, Xiao Luoan, Si Jinyan, and Xu Wei returned to the Polar Howard Johnson Hotel together.
Xu Wei remained silent the entire way, sitting quietly in the back seat.
After returning to room 808, I went inside the Soul Nourishing Array to rest.
Only the paper figure was left on the ground.
Si Jinyan and Xiao Luoan exchanged a glance, and finally Si Jinyan spoke up: "The land in the west of the city has a strong resentment, so construction cannot start for the time being unless the person behind it is found out and justice is served for those who died in the chemical plant."
"Well, but the person behind him is now extremely powerful, so it may be difficult to bring him to justice."
Xiao Luoan continued, following her words.
As night fell, the moon gradually set, and the once bustling streets took on a desolate air.
Only in those places of dazzling lights and revelry can one still enjoy peace and prosperity.
A figure left room 808, her steps hurried, and she quickly disappeared into the Polar Hotel.
