Yang Xuelan looked at the woman in front of her and felt that she was her savior.
Looking at her, Tang Li smiled and said, “I can help you, but you’ll have to give me something… Is that alright?”
“What do you want?”
Tang Li pointed at her wrist. “I want your bracelet.”
Yang Xuelan subconsciously shook her head, saying, “No… no, this bracelet is the only thing my granny left for me. I can’t give it to you.”
Tang Li sighed. “Well then, you can keep it. Since you don’t wanna trade this bracelet, I can’t help you.”
With that, she turned around and left.
Looking at Tang Li, who was leaving, Yang Xuelan panicked and hastened to say, “Other than the bracelet, I can give you anything else.”
Tang Li sneered when she heard that, and she said to her, almost mockingly, “I’m helping you change your fate, not negotiating with you. Do you think I’ll be interested in anything else?”
With that, Tang Li continued to walk. With every step she took, the alley grew dimmer, making Yang Xuelan panic even more. “Wait, I’ll trade this bracelet!”
She believed that even if grandma was still around, she would not object to her using this bracelet to trade for her own fate.
Tang Li stopped and turned around to look at her before extending her hand toward her.
Yang Xuelan touched the bracelet one last time before reluctantly taking it off.
Tang Li took the bracelet and then cast a spell in the air. The spell then entered Yang Xuelan’s body.
Yang Xuelan slowly closed her eyes.
Tang Li looked at her and said, “Go back and change your place of residence. Other than the personal items you bought, leave everything else behind. Go for the audition for Director Zhang’s movie. Remember, don’t tell anyone before you receive the notice, including your family, friends, and manager.”
After saying that, she strode out of the alley.
A moment later, Yang Xuelan opened her eyes and the alley returned to darkness.
She touched her wrist. The bracelet was no longer there, but she felt a sense of relief.
Without lingering, she stood up and left the alley.
…
On the other side.
In the northern part of the city, there was a cluster of warehouses.
Most of the warehouses were occupied by large corporations, taking up a thousand acres of land. The Qi family’s warehouse was the largest one with a mountain behind it.
It was already past 11 pm when a group of bodyguards came out of the warehouse, followed by Qi Yihan, Qi Ming, and First Master.
First Master looked confident and proud. He was saying, “When I first saw it, I knew that you can get a top-grade jade out of that raw stone. I even found five jade masters to take a look at it, and they all said it is going to be an extremely rare jade.”
Qi Yihan shut his mouth tight and remained silent.
When they were outside the warehouse, he said to the warehouse supervisor who was with them, “Start carving the raw stone tomorrow, and tell me what kind of jade it turns out to be.”
“Is it necessary to bother Manager Li? I think Qi Ming is perfectly up to the task.” First Master was a little displeased. He felt that Qi Yihan wanted to take the credit for his work, so he said to Qi Ming, “Ming, you can stay here tonight and keep an eye on the stone.”
The profits from buying raw stones were huge. As long as First Master could get a few top-grade jades this time, he would definitely be in charge of this job in the future.
Qi Ming was obedient to his father. He said immediately, “Yes, father.”
Qi Yihan threw a look at the two of them and then went straight to his car without objecting.
As soon as the car left, Manager Li asked Qi Ming, trying to kiss his ass, “Mr. Qi, I got some good wine. Do you wanna come and give it a try?”
Qi Ming thought that since there was nothing to do now at the warehouse, why not. The two of them then went to the office next to the warehouse.
What they didn’t know was that a figure silently came down from the back mountain and entered the raw stone warehouse while they were drinking.
All the surveillance cameras failed at the same time.
The moment Qi Lingxuan entered the warehouse, the Artifact Spirit came out of his body and floated towards the raw stones.
Qi Lingxuan smiled, looking at the high-quality raw stone that had turned into ordinary stones, and thought to himself, “I’ll see what kind of top-grade jades you guys can get tomorrow.”
The Artifact Spirit absorbed it very quickly. When he returned to Qi Lingxuan’s body, Qi Lingxuan could feel that he was much stronger than before.
The Artifact Spirit said, “Other than jade, the best are still antiques. Many antiques gather heaven and earth spiritual energy. As long as I absorb a little more of them, I can become one with you. Also, you’d better nourish your body with medical herbs. Otherwise, your body might not be able to withstand my power and might explode.”
Qi Lingxuan clenched his fists and asked, “What are the best herbs?”
The Artifact Spirit told him what were the best herbs and where to get them.
Qi Lingxuan nodded and left quietly.
…
When Tang Li went downstairs the next morning, she found Qi Yihan there talking with Butler Zhang.
The two of them stood outside the door.
Suddenly, Qi Yihan stopped talking and turned to look at her.
Butler Zhang stopped too and asked Tang Li respectfully with arms crossed in front of him, “Madam, do you want to eat breakfast now or later?”
Tang Li did not answer him immediately. Instead, she walked up to Qi Yihan and asked, “Why are you here so early?”
Qi Yihan said to her, “I found one of the herbs you wanted. Take a look at it to see if it’s the right one.”
After saying that, he took out his phone and swiped across the screen before handing it to Tang Li.
Tang Li took it and saw a video on it.
The video showed the herb in close-up.
Tang Li looked at it for a while before raising her head to look at him. She smiled and said, “Not bad. Your people are really good at finding herbs. They actually managed to find one of them so quickly.”
Qi Yihan saw the smile on her face and nodded. He took the phone from her and was about to leave.
“Wait.” Tang Li stopped him. “I have a video to show you too. Wait for me.”
She didn’t bring her phone when she came down. After stopping Qi Yihan, she turned and ran into her room.
Qi Yihan asked Butler Zhang abruptly, “What was she doing last night?”
Butler Zhang quickly replied, “Madam stayed in the laboratory until ten o’clock last night. She went to rest after she came back.”
Qi Yihan nodded and remained silent.
Tang Li quickly came back with her phone and medicine bottle.
She handed the medicine bottle to him, saying, “Here, the medicine in here can cure many types of poison. Of course, the best cure is medicine C. If you get drugged or poisoned by bad guys ever again, just take one.”
Qi Yihan looked at her with a straight face. He didn’t reply and didn’t say anything.
Butler Zhang looked at Tang Li and thought, “Madam, are you concerned about Master, or are you doing this on purpose? Can’t you see that Master doesn’t look happy now?”
Tang Li couldn’t tell whether Qi Yihan was in a good mood or not. Seeing that he wasn’t taking it, she stuffed it into his pocket. Then she took out her phone and searched for a while before playing the video she recorded last night.
After the video was finished, she asked Qi Yihan, “Do you think I should just show it to your father or put it online?”
The butler was shocked, asking, “Madam, when did you get this recording?”
Qi Yihan said, looking solemn, “Give me the video.. I’ll solve this matter.”
