Chapter 934
And beside that, Gu Si Qian was in a similar state of mind to her.
When Bella Qiao disappeared earlier, he had a score to settle with the Nan Clan, and by all rights he should be more wary and hostile towards the man in front of him.
But now, sitting here, perhaps because of the surrounding environment, or perhaps because of the other party’s attitude is too modest, there is no sense of anger at all.
Nangong Jin smiled slightly and said, “You and your father look a lot alike.”
Bella Qiao was slightly shaken.
“You know my father?”
“Well.”
Nangong Jin nodded and looked out the window, a light rain was falling outside at an unknown time.
The autumn rains added another hint of depression to the landscape.
He narrowed his eyes and said faintly, “He served under my hand for fifteen years, and I know him as well as if we were brothers and close friends.”
Kitty Qiao frowned.
Intuition told her that there was a story here.
Sure enough, I heard him sigh.
“It’s just a shame that he died so young and I didn’t even get to see him one last time.”
Bella Qiao asked, “You said he was serving under your hand?What are you, and what is he?What kind of role do you guys play in the South family?And how did he die?”
She asked this series of questions, and Nangong Jin seemed stunned for a moment, followed by a soothing smile.
“I know you have a lot of questions in your mind, there’s no rush, there’s plenty of time today anyway, let’s take it one question at a time.”
He said, pausing to explain, “I don’t think I need to explain too much about what I am, you can feel that for yourselves.”
As soon as this was said, Bella Qiao and Gu Siqian were both slightly shaken.
It was only a guess, but now, by his words, it had proved to be a fact.
Nangong Jin still had a smile on his face, and he was obviously about the same age as Gu Si Qian, but for some reason, being stared at by those gentle brows, it felt as if he had experienced thousands of years and was already a man who had seen the red dust dying.
He smiled, “As for who your father is, you already know what I am, and you should be able to guess what he is as well.”
Kitty Qiao frowned.
“Your cronies?”
“Good.”
He paused and took another sip of tea before continuing, “He is also a member of the Nan Clan, his name is Nangong Lack, he grew up beside me, I treated him like a son and a friend, everything he knows I taught him myself, I thought that he would stay by my side and work for me faithfully, but then he met your mother.”
“All marriages in the Southern clan need to be approved by the clan, your mother’s background wasn’t clean, the clan didn’t approve, and he went so far as to elope with your mother.”
At that, he smiled brightly again.
“The young man, well, he’s always bloody-minded, and I suppose he was impulsive, and I had sent someone out to look for him at the time, but he knew me as well as I knew him, and he hid it, and I had a hard time finding it at the moment.”
“Then it took three or five years to finally find the man, but at that time it was learned that he had become ill and died.”
Kitty Qiao frowned.
I don’t know why, but there was a hidden feeling that something was wrong with it.
She asked, “What a coincidence?From what you’ve told me, he was a Ken, too.
Con’s people, right, how come they died within a few years of leaving you?”
Nangong Jin smiled slightly.
“You sure are smart, it seems like you can’t hide anything.”
He reached out, took the tea next to him, made another pot, and said slowly, “You’re right, there was indeed another reason for his death.”
Bella Qiao was shaken.
Nangong Jin lifted his eyes to look at her, his smile high, “Do you suspect that I killed him?”
The fingers that Georgie placed at her side tightened slightly, but she still managed a smile.
“No, as you just said, you didn’t find him in those years.”
Nangong Jin laughed and shook his head, “You didn’t tell the truth, you clearly suspect me in your heart, but it doesn’t matter, this matter was meant to be, so there’s no harm even if I tell you.”
He made a slight pause, his eyes had become very serious and calm.
“He died of a genetic disorder of our Southern family, the same one that suddenly struck you earlier at the wedding.”
Not only Bella Qiao, but also Gu Siqian beside him changed his face when this was said.
Nangong Jin continued, “When you had a seizure before, as you all saw, this disease is menacing and can kill someone in a short time, it is a genetic disease unique to our Nan Clan, in order to restrain this disease, we have developed a medicine that can be suppressed by taking it regularly, but this medicine is very precious and is only available to those within the family.
When your father used to work for me, the medicine was certainly enough to manage, but he betrayed the family and fled, so of course the medicine is gone.
For a while in the beginning, he was able to find some medicine through some of his friends, but it was a fast-moving commodity, and everyone in the Nannies needed it, no one who could provide it for years and years.
So then he weaned off his medication, and naturally that’s why he died.”
After Nangong Jin finished speaking, a brief silence fell over the room.
Bella Qiao pursed her lips and Gu Si Qian held her hand under the long table, wrapping her small hand in his warm, broad palm, and she only then felt a few hints of strength.
She lifted her head and looked directly at Nangong Jin.
“So what did you want to do this time when you called us over?”
Nangong Jin was satisfied with her attitude and didn’t act overly excited even when she heard the sad news related to her own father.
Calm and intelligent, qualities he liked.
He leaned back and said idly, “It’s simple, we make a deal.”
“What kind of deal?”
“You seek one thing for me, and I will provide you with medicine to curb your disease.”
As soon as he spoke, Georgie refused without even thinking, “No.”
Nangong Jin’s eyes narrowed, “You haven’t even listened to what I asked you to find for me and you refused?”
Bella Qiao said in a deep voice, “Since you can sit here and still dispatch Nan Gong Yu, it means that your identity is definitely above him, looking at the entire Nan Clan, spanning several continents, it can be said that it is the largest underground power in the world, what you all can’t find, it can be seen that it must be extremely difficult to find.
And now you want us to find it for you in return for giving me some medicine that will temporarily stop my illness if it is found?Am I going to be able to rely on you for the rest of my life to get your drugs?”
Nangong Jin was surprised for a moment at the words, then laughed.
“Interesting, really interesting!”
Chapter 935
It had been a long time since he’d lived to see someone so interesting.
“You’re right, such things as I’ve asked you to find for me are indeed hard to find, so why don’t you tell me what you want?”
Bella Qiao said squarely, “I want this disease in me to be completely resolved.”
Nangong Jin’s eyes narrowed.
“You want me to heal it for you?”
“Right!”
Nangong Jin was silent and smiled abruptly.
“You’re too naive, if there really is a way to cure this disease in this world, do you think it’s possible for us from the huge Nan Clan to still be plagued by this disease for so many years?”
As soon as this was said, Bella Qiao and Gu Si Qian both turned pale.
“You mean, there’s no cure?”
“No.”
The air pressure in the room dropped and none of the three men spoke again.
Nangong Jin wasn’t in a hurry and just sat there quietly watching them, both sides seemed to be in a huge drawn out battle.
It took half a moment before Gu Si Qian spoke, “What do you want us to find for you?”
Nangong Jin smiled slightly, “Heavenly Book of Jade.”
……..
It was noon when they came out of the manor.
They didn’t linger any longer at the Nan Clan’s Midwinter Festival, and after coming out, they left the island by boat.
Qin Yue met them on the shore, and as soon as they got off the boat, they went straight to the plane and flew all the way back to Lin City.
It was three o’clock in the afternoon when we arrived at the castle.
Ober ordered the kitchen to prepare a meal, and the two of them dusted off and rested a bit after eating, which was the only way to regain their bearings on the events of the day.
She took out the piece of heavenly jade that she had previously taken from the auction and placed it in her hands to scrutinize it for a while before saying, “We had been wondering why the Nan Clan would bring this piece out for auction, but now we know that they had a plan.”
Gu Si Qian’s face was slightly pale.
“They sent this piece to us on purpose, and that auction, named for everyone, was, in fact, for us.”
Georgie nodded and sighed again.
“What do you think they’re looking for with this thing?I don’t think that Mr. Nangong Jin looks like someone who believes in these rumors of immortality, he looks quite out of this world, so why would he be thinking about this stuff?”
Gu Siqian smirked, but he didn’t take kindly to her words.
“Sometimes often the more out-of-this-world people seem to be, the more greedy they actually are, and I don’t think he’s a good person.”
Bella Qiao paused and turned her eyes to him, “Then why do you think he sent it to us?And why did you choose us to find the rest of the pieces for him?”
Gu Si Qian said indifferently, “It’s simple, because he himself is inconvenienced to make a move for some reason, while we have connections and influence, and you have to ask for something because of the illness in your body, so we are the best choice.As to why this was sent to us…”
He took the piece of jade and took a closer look at it.
“Maybe so we can watch and study it?”
I said, and shook my head again, “I don’t know.”
Georgie sighed.
“So what do we do now?”
Gu Si Qian’s eyes were dark, and he said in a half voice, “Find.”
“How do I find it?The world is so big and we don’t have a clue, but he’s only given us four months.”
When they left, Nangong Jin gave them four months’ worth of medicine and ordered that they must find all twelve pieces of jade within four months.
According to his own words, he currently had five pieces on hand, and Gu Siqian had one here, for a total of six pieces, which meant that there were six more pieces scattered about.
Because of the previous rumors, there were many people who believed that it was a divine object that could bring back the dead, so everyone was looking for it, yet after looking for it for so long, not many could find it.
So how easy is it to find all six pieces in just four months’ time?
With that in mind, Georgie’s brow sank.
Kusken turned to look at her and smiled slightly.
“There’s no hurry, the road to the bridge must be straight, according to him, gathering these twelve pieces of heavenly jades will be of great use, I guess he’s not the only one who knows this news, so why don’t we try and see who will come to fight for this treasure then, I’ll vouch for the fact that someone who comes will be someone who already has one or two of them themselves, and then we’llWatch hands-on carefully.”
Georgie chimed in, nodding her head.
“Maybe that’s the best way to go for now.”
Sensing her concern, Gu Si Qian reassured her and took her into his arms.
“Don’t be afraid, things will work out, you’ll be fine, none of us will be fine.”
Jackie leaned into his arms and nodded, closing her eyes.
Three days later, Lin City suddenly held a treasure conference.
This conference was not initiated by anyone else, but by the son of Lin City’s richest man, Lin Song.
Lin Song is known as a rich dude in Lin City, he has never done anything ridiculous, so when he initiated this treasure competition with a richer nature, everyone was not surprised.
Rather, there were some business ones, curious as to what treasures he had recently found and was so eager to show off to everyone.
After all, it was well known that although Lin Shao was a dude, although he loved to show off, but that every time he showed off was a real treasure, the kind that ordinary rich people could never have seen.
So, grooving is grooving, and going is still all about going.
The congress was held at the largest hotel in Lim’s portfolio.
On the day it was held, the guests were numerous, almost all the prominent people of the neighborhood were present, and the hall was a bustling place.
Lin Song was holding a glass of red wine, leaning on the back of a sofa, smiling at the lively and exuberant scene downstairs, laughing, “Si Qian, but I’ve called all the influential and respectable people in Lin City to you, what do you want, just say it!”
No one would have thought that the actual mastermind behind the Treasure Appreciation Conference led by Lin Song was actually Gu Siqian.
Gu Si Qian was also holding a tall glass, his eyes deep in thought as he looked down.
There was no unnecessary expression on his face, he still had that cold and hard look, only a few hints of darkness in the depths of his eyes that showed that he was now distracted.
Lin Song bumped his arm with his elbow and asked, “Eh, what kind of treasures do you want me to display by making such a banquet?It’s that time of the day, so I guess we can talk, right?”
Kusken looked at him.
Thin lips, “Heaven’s book of jade.”
“What?”
Lin Song was so surprised, “Wasn’t that the one you auctioned off when we were at the auction before?”
Kuskan nodded.
“Wasn’t there a lot of interest in it before?I’ll take it out for all to see.”
Chapter 936
Lin Song: “……..”
He smiled stiffly, “I say brother, you’re not kidding, are you?What’s there to see in that thing, and frankly, I feel like it’s just something some people made to fool the stupid fools, so don’t you break my sign.”
Gu Si Qian snorted, “With that stupid sign of yours?”
“What?And you despise it?”
Gu Si Qian didn’t say anything, but that expression already indicated his dislike.
Lin Songton was furious and was about to have a good word with him when his shoulder was tapped.
“Lin Shao!”
Looking back, it was a middle-aged man with a big belly.
The man’s surname was Jiang, called Jiang Da, a local real estate businessman in Lin City, who had previously met Gu Siqian at a banquet, so he was considered to know him.
I saw him laughing, “Lin Shao, Gu Shao, are they all here?”
Lin Song nodded, “Something wrong?”
Jiang Da handed over a document in his hand with a pleasing smile on his face, “Lin Shao, the last time you were interested in that piece of land, before that it was a few people under my hand who didn’t know anything and didn’t know you so they refused your request, I know already scolded them severely, this is the transfer document of the land, please accept it.”
Lin Song narrowed his eyes.
He smiled lightly, “What does that mean, Mr. Jiang?”
Jiang Da smiled in sincere fear, “Lin Shao, I know you don’t look down on this little industry of mine, but this is a piece of my heart, please don’t dislike it…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Lin Song raised his hand and interrupted him.
He said squarely, “Jiang, I think you’ve misunderstood, I did think of buying your piece of land before to use it for developing an amusement park, but then weighed it up and felt that location was inappropriate, so I didn’t pay any more attention to it, so I appreciate your kindness, as for this piece of land, you should take it back.”
Kangda was clearly confused at the news.
Lin Song added, “And also, our Lin family is a serious businessman, not a bandit, even if we really wanted to buy your land, we would go through the proper channels and formalities, you don’t need that.”
At the end, he couldn’t help but soften his tone in the end, quite a headache.
Jiang Da reacted now and nodded, “I understand, thank you, Lin Shao.”
Lin Song barely smiled and waved him away.
After he left, Gu Si Qian Fang asked, “What happened?”
Lin Song sighed.
“Ugh, never mind, did my dad not allow consent for that cheap uncle of mine to come to work at Lin’s recently?It’s good that he doesn’t come, but when he does, he’s a bully. He’s always sneaking around. We were watching the land a while ago, weren’t we?At that time was interested in that piece of Jiang Da, but did not want to acquire, and I do not know how to be heard by my cheap uncle, this Jiang Da reckoned that he was threatened by him, which is why he sincerely begged to come to me.”
Kuskan frowned.
“It’s a disaster for such people to stay.”
Speaking of which, Lin Song also had a bit of a headache.
“Who says it isn’t?But it’s just that he’s my mother’s brother, and you don’t know my mother that way, so if we really want to get rid of him, she’ll cry and cry and hang herself, and the family won’t be able to live.”
When he said that, Gu Siqian couldn’t talk much more.
After all, it was someone’s family business, and it was enough for him to mention it as a friend.
To say any more would smack of meddling.
Thinking so, he cast his eyes down the hall.
Only seeing that the guests had almost arrived, Gu Si Qian looked at the time, eight o’clock in the evening exactly, and he said in a deep voice, “Let’s begin.”
Lin Song nodded, “Then I’ll go arrange it now.”
“Well.”
After Lin Song left, Bella Qiao also came over.
She was followed by Qin Yue, who was holding an antique wooden box in his hand, which was the Heavenly Book of Jade.
She asked, “Take it down now?”
Kuskan nodded.
Bella Qiao then said nothing and followed him downstairs.
At eight o’clock, the treasure hunt officially began.
Although there had been many people who spat out that Lin Song loved to show off and seemed to be quite displeased with his act of connoisseurship, but now that it had actually started, the attention of the crowd was still drawn to it.
At this point, the host had not yet taken the stage, and everyone was sitting below, crossing their fingers and guessing what the treasure of the day would be.
It wasn’t until the stage lit up with a single light and a huge projector was projected on a white curtain that the venue quieted down.
There was only one white light on the stage in the entire venue, the rest of the lights were all half closed and silent.
The sound of high heels crunching was heard, and a tuxedo-clad host took the stage.
The white beam of lights followed her, finally stopping at a spot on the left side of the stage.
The high, bright voice rang out, “Good evening, everyone.”
With the host’s curtain call, the big party was officially opened.
After a short preamble, the host gets down to business and introduces the treasures that will be on display tonight.
“This treasure that is appearing tonight, I think many of you here should have heard of it and are very interested in it, it is the ultimate treasure that has been very hotly rumored in the rivers and lakes in recent years, the Heavenly Book of Jade.”
The voice falls, the right side of the stage, another beam of white light played down, the crowd only then found that there was a glass display case, the display case is displaying a small blue, white and pure jade silk, if not the book of heaven jade silk can also be what?
This piece of jade had been seen by many people during the original auction.
It was just that I couldn’t take any photos at that time, and later left a lot of regrets, I thought I would never have the chance to see it again in my life, but I never thought I would see it here again.
The chatter began to grow at the bottom.
The host continued, “As we all know, the Heavenly Book of Jade is called a divine object because it is rumored to have the effect of raising the dead and immortality, this treasure was photographed half a year ago by Mr. Gu Siqian Gu, and after careful study, it was discovered that it originally had twelve pieces, and what we are currently exhibiting is just one of them.”
This came as a shock to the people below, and the discussion became even heavier.
The host did not rush to speak, and only after giving the people below some time to react did the introduction continue.
“There were once people who doubted whether the rumors about the Heavenly Book and Jade Palms were true, and while we can’t really confirm this at this point, after investigating and looking into many ancient sources, it has been shown that if twelve Heavenly Book and Jade Palms are gathered, then something magical will definitely happen.
Whether this miraculous event is a resurrection from the dead or immortality, there is no accurate statement, but after scientific research, this jade is made of a material that we humans on Earth have never seen before.”
