When Su Li returned to the Hundred Beasts Tower, she could no longer hear Ling Li's voice. He was probably found by his brother Ling Ping and pushed upstairs. After Su Zipei made such a fuss, she lost interest in continuing to taste the delicious food and walked upstairs.
Many people saw her stepping up the stairs and were not stopped by the cloud-controlling troops on both sides of the stairs. They were dumbfounded. It turned out that the girl they had mocked just now had a status far above them.
At the same time, Su Zipei's steps were disordered. She accidentally knocked over several long tables and spilled broth all over her body. She walked out of Shenwu Square without knowing it. She suppressed the panic in her heart, barely discerned the direction, and headed towards the usual and mysterious place. The woman ran to the meeting place.
She offended someone she shouldn't have offended, and her mother couldn't save her, so she had to go to her and find a solution!
Today, the streets outside Shenwu Square in Yunjing City seemed particularly cold. Su Zipei ran faster and faster, as if hope was right in front of her. She turned a corner, but at this moment, a sedan came towards the corner.
Su Zipei couldn't stop and hit the servant carrying the sedan with a bang!
"Ouch!"
Su Zipei fell over and fell backwards. The sedan became unstable for a while. The people in the sedan were startled and opened the curtain to look outside. It was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties. Just looking at it His appearance is incomparable and impressive, his nobility is overwhelming, and he is definitely of extraordinary origin.
Su Zipei felt miserable in his heart, why was he so unlucky today? Not only did he offend the young master of the Ling family, but he also bumped into a noble master on the way.
She hurriedly climbed up, and the jade pendant around her waist immediately fell into the eyes of the middle-aged man, causing his pupils to shrink and his movements to freeze in mid-air for a long time without any reaction.
"The little girl bumped into the master, please forgive me."
Su Zipei kowtowed several times. When the middle-aged man's housekeeper saw that his master didn't respond, he waved his hand impatiently. Su Zipei quickly got up and ran away as if he was receiving an amnesty. In her joy, she didn't notice that the moment she missed the sedan, a black shadow flashed in front of her, and the jade pendant around her waist disappeared.
The middle-aged man came to his senses and immediately became furious and shouted: "Turn around, quickly! Stop that girl!"
The butler's face changed drastically. He had not seen his master angry for many years. He immediately used his body skills to grab Su Zipei's shoulders and threw Su Zipei in front of the sedan. He apologized and said: "I misjudged my master's intentions and deserved to die." !”
Snapped!
The middle-aged man got off the sedan chair, but slapped the housekeeper without saying a word, and said angrily: "Who made you act so rude? Why don't you apologize to her quickly!"
"Yes Yes Yes."
The housekeeper didn't dare to refute, for fear of getting slapped again, so he turned around and apologized to Su Zipei: "This girl, it was the old slave who was rude just now, I really can't help it."
After hearing this, the middle-aged man's expression softened. Then he couldn't help but turned around excitedly and looked at Su Zipei, who looked confused. But at this look, Su Zipei's waist was empty. Where was half a jade pendant
Hallucination? !
The middle-aged man's hand was frozen in the air, it was actually an illusion, but the jade pendant just now was so real. Could it be that he has had too many dreams in recent years, which has affected his normal vision
Su Zipei thought that today would be a blessing in disguise, and she would have an encounter with this noble man. She was so happy in her heart, but who knew that the man's face suddenly turned cold.
She looked confused, and before she could react, she saw the middle-aged man waving his hands in disinterest and returning to the sedan: "Give her some money as compensation for the shock. Let's go."
The housekeeper seemed to have become accustomed to his master's strange behavior. He quickly dropped a few silver ingots next to Su Zipei and hurriedly called the servants to continue walking towards Shenwu Square.
Su Zipei stared blankly at the sedan's retreating figure, then lowered his head to glance at the silver coins on the ground.
That rich man just left like this? !
The anticipation was in vain!
Picking up the silver coins on the ground and holding them in her arms, Su Zipei sighed bitterly: "The people in Yunjing City are indeed as annoying as the second sister."
The middle-aged man in the sedan who was still paying attention to Su Zipei shook his head slightly when he saw this scene, and finally gave up his thoughts. How could a girl who behaved so vulgarly be her daughter.
The sedan turned the corner and disappeared. Su Zipei patted her clothes and stood up, but this pat made her face turn pale in an instant.
She didn't dare to look at her waist and only groped with her hands, but she didn't touch anything hard after groping for several times.
Finally, she couldn't help but look down and saw that her waist was empty. Her vision suddenly went dark, and her feet went limp and she collapsed on the ground.
The jade pendant is lost!
Her biggest reliance in Yunjing was gone!
Without a jade pendant, how could she recognize her ancestors and join a wealthy family
"No, it must have fallen to the ground while running!"
Kneeling on the ground and crying for a moment, Su Zipei came to her senses and immediately searched frantically along the road. If it hadn't been for the feast of beasts and there were no people on the street, her crazy appearance would have definitely become a first-class one the next day. scandal.
"Where! Where!"
The more she searched, the more panicked and desperate Su Zipei felt. Her eyes were filled with tears and her vision was blurry. If someone really picked her up along the way, she would never be able to find it...
While Su Zipei was still going crazy on the street, the sedan had stopped at the edge of Shenwu Square. A middle-aged man stepped out of the sedan, looked at the seven-story building standing in the distance, and murmured to himself, "It's been so many years since I've been to the Hundred Beasts Tower. .”
The butler spoke at the right time, "His Majesty said that the Beast Tower will always be yours and there will be no other owner."
The middle-aged man shook his head and walked towards the Beast Tower with a dejected expression. If you ignored the luxurious robes on his body, he would have looked like a poor scholar.
"It's been all these years and you still can't let go?"
The butler sighed and followed quickly.
But at this moment, Xuan Jingzhou and his wife were collecting meat in the square with a basin. How could such a good thing of taking advantage of others be missing from both of them.
While the lady boss was stuffing meat into her mouth while the surrounding Yuyun soldiers were not paying attention, her pair of mung bean eyes looked around intelligently. She suddenly turned her gaze. She saw the back of the middle-aged man entering the Hundred Beasts Building, and the smile on her face disappeared instantly. His originally ordinary eyes were filled with murderous intent in the blink of an eye.
Um
The butler noticed the gaze and looked back sharply. But they found that the square was bustling with people, and no one released any murderous intent.
Hallucination
The housekeeper shook his head and followed his master in. Even if it wasn't an illusion, An An would not be stupid enough to take action here at this moment.
When Xuan Jingzhou saw him walking in, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He grabbed the landlady's hand tightly without letting go, and said in a cold voice: "Calm down! Have you forgotten what the abbot of Zen Mountain said back then? Just bear with us for seven years. Are all your efforts ruined today?"
The proprietress took a deep breath, the red light in her eyes faded, and she lowered her head and continued to pick up the meat. Xuan Jingzhou couldn't see her face, but the angry words of the lady's gritted teeth rang in his ears.
"I'm just not willing to give in! My sister died like this, but he can live so heartlessly, why?!"
Xuan Jingzhou sighed and comforted the landlady softly, "If you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we get back. It's not safe here..."
Xuan Jingzhou's resentment towards that man was not as deep as the landlady's, because he was not the heartless scumbag the landlady had called him over the years.
As a prince, but he has never married a wife, doesn't that explain the problem
But he would not dare to say this to his wife no matter what.
As soon as he entered the Hundred Beasts Tower, the middle-aged man attracted the attention of most young people. He seemed to be born with his own unique charm, and people couldn't help but look at him more.
"Who is this person?"
"I don't recognize it."
There are very few young talents who can stand here who don't know the dignitaries in Yunjing City, but when they see the middle-aged man today, no one can tell his identity.
"Master, go up."
The housekeeper cautiously suggested in his ear, but the middle-aged man stood on the first floor for a long time, unwilling to go upstairs for a long time. His eyes scanned every corner of the Hundred Beasts Building, and the scene from that year seemed to appear in his eyes.
It's a pity that time has passed, things are man-made, and the people and things of the past can't come back.
"Master, it's time to go up. If the banquet is held on the top floor after the hour, it will be a loss of face for you to go."
The housekeeper couldn't help but remind him again. The middle-aged man snorted coldly, tossed his sleeves and went upstairs, "What kind of face do I have now?"
"Master..."
The butler sighed and hurriedly followed.
At this moment, on the top floor, Su Li was sitting and drinking alone. No one dared to come within one meter of her. Because of Ling Dandy's words, whoever dared to attack her would not be able to leave the Hundred Beasts Tower standing today. !
In this regard, Su Li felt helpless. She could only let Ling Li, a childish ghost, do whatever she wanted with her apparent identity. Fortunately, Ma Jintian came to provoke him and Ling Li was busy talking to him, so her ears were much clearer.
If you want to act well, you must integrate yourself into the role. Su Li glanced at the two people who were still scolding each other in the field, and couldn't help but feel slightly amused. Ling Dajiao had starred in the playboy for more than ten years, and he undoubtedly interpreted this role perfectly.
Tap tap tap…
At this moment, slow footsteps sounded from the direction of the stairs. Many people turned their heads and looked at each other, who could come upstairs
When the middle-aged man's face appeared in everyone's eyes, there was a sound of wine glasses falling to the ground, followed by a violent commotion.
"He's actually here?!"
"This person hasn't been out of the mansion for more than ten years, right? He actually showed up this year."
"Didn't someone say that he was seriously ill, so he could only recuperate at home and could not go out?"
"who is he?"
Families with deep roots recognize the middle-aged man at a glance, but there are also emerging families who are confused and don’t know who the man is.
Su Li was attracted by the sound and turned her head to look. The next moment, her pupils shrank suddenly, and her heart seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer. She could no longer hold the wine glass in her hand and let it fall to the table, spilling the wine all over the floor. .
It's him…
The eldest prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince stood up almost at the same time, walked up to the middle-aged man, and bowed in unison with their hands lowered.
Not for anything else, because he is the younger brother of the current Holy Emperor, the eighth prince of Dahan Kingdom, Prince Rui!
"Hello, Uncle Eight Emperors!"
