Chapter 96
"I wanted to ask just now..." Chen Jing looked puzzled, "What does the red dot on your forehead mean?"
"Guess." Wei Nan remained calm.
"I can't guess." Chen Jing shook his head, not noticing that Wei Nan's face was becoming more and more dangerous, "But it looks quite auspicious..."
"Well... that makes sense!"
Wei Nan grabbed Chen Jing's neck with a chokehold, and dragged him away from the rooftop without waiting for him to resist, just like dragging prey...
"What are you doing?!"
Chen Jing finally realized that something was wrong.
He frantically reflected on whether he had said something wrong, because this woman's reaction seemed like she wanted to kill someone.
"Don't talk, Elbow, come home with me."
Wei Nan covered Chen Jing's mouth and dragged him into the elevator.
"When we get home, I'll make you as auspicious as me!"
Chapter 107 Polygonum multiflorum becomes a spirit
Although Chen Jing was no longer unfamiliar with this city after the fusion of his memories.
But those memories are just memories... unreal, vague, like seeing it in a dream, which is different from personal experience.
"Why do I feel that you are more excited than me?"
"Really?"
In the elevator, Wei Nan kept staring at Chen Jing.
No matter how she looked at him, she felt that this boy was very wrong...
Since morning, the smile on Chen Jing's face has never disappeared, and from time to time he would urge him to pack up quickly, and he would go out for a walk until dark today!
But...
Has the sky of the eternal night ever been bright?
Wei Nan yawned, put her hands in the pockets of her punk jacket, and leaned lazily on Chen Jing's shoulder.
Although she wanted to strangle Chen Jing last night, at this moment, she felt that it was great to have such a reliable little brother.
At least when she was sleepy, it was really comfortable to use him as a pillow.
Back home.
Chen Jing found that the old man was already sitting at the dining table drinking porridge, and Ryan was still busy in the kitchen.
"The things you want to buy are all written on the list. The card underneath has no password. You can use it at will." Chen Bofu didn't even raise his head when he spoke. In front of him was a newspaper from Evernight City, which he asked Ryan to buy early in the morning.
The early end of the Moon Festival.
The news has spread in Evernight City.
Especially after the [Round Table Council] came forward to explain...
"Isn't this Xu Ye?" Chen Jing glanced at the photo in the interview column.
As the chief of security in Evernight City.
Xu Ye seemed to have always been dressed the same way for thousands of years.
A simple and capable white shirt paired with a black parliamentary uniform similar to a suit.
Her hair was tied up behind her head.
Only the long hair on her temples fell naturally on her shoulders.
Although she was dressed in a completely neutral style, her feminine beauty was revealed everywhere.
Compared to the last time they met, she had a pair of thin-rimmed gold-rimmed glasses on her nose.
The glasses on her nose were not a burden, but made her look more intellectual, like a gentle older sister.
But then again.
Based on the experience of dealing with her last time, Chen Jing felt that this older sister was not so gentle. In terms of heart and mind... she might be more cunning than Li Mobai.
Especially the disguise.
There was always a hint of indifference hidden in her gentle and peaceful eyes.
As the old man said.
She might be a person who could do great things.
So... it's better to stay away from her.
"Did this person come to our community last time?" Wei Nan seemed a little forgetful.
"Yeah, the one who fought with my grandfather." Chen Jing nodded.
"No wonder he looks familiar..." Wei Nan said, "He's wearing glasses to pretend to be gentle in the newspaper this time... It's really ugly!"
"It's okay, it's pretty good."
Chen Jing glanced at Xu Ye on the newspaper, then turned his eyes away, as if he was not very interested in that delicate and gentle face.
But Wei Nan was unhappy.
Yes, she was very unhappy.
She didn't know why, but she just didn't like to hear Chen Jing praise others, and he praised them for being pretty!
"How is this pretty! What kind of aesthetics!" Wei Nan expressed dissatisfaction, looking at Chen Jing with contempt, "Do you have bad eyesight?"
"It's pretty..." Chen Jing was stunned.
"Is your boss not prettier than her?" Wei Nan asked with a frown, his eyes full of threats, and the words were full of hints, "Think about it first."
"You are pretty?"
Chen Bofu raised his head and looked at Wei Nan with a very surprised look, as if asking where you got the courage to say that?
"I am not pretty?" Although Wei Nan was a little afraid of the old man, she was still very unconvinced on this issue.
"You?"
Chen Bofu smiled and lowered his head to continue reading the newspaper.
"You can barely be regarded as the root of Polygonum multiflorum, and you have begun to take human form."
"..."
Chen Jing could hear that the old man was just joking with Wei Nan, just to deliberately annoy her.
But this is too mean!
The root of Polygonum multiflorum has taken on a human form?
Old man, are you always so venomous? !
"Boss, that..."
"Wow, wow, wow--"
Without waiting for Chen Jing to smooth things over, Wei Nan burst into tears.
Then she took the meat buns and the plate on the table away, as if she wanted to break with the world, and ran out of Chen Jing's house without looking back.
"What the hell?"
Chen Bofu still held his chopsticks in the air, looking at the door that Wei Nan had just slammed in disbelief.
"This girl has grown up! She even dared to snatch my breakfast?!"
Chen Jing thought the old man was going to get angry, after all, he was a bad temper and was not polite at all.
But to his surprise... the old man just laughed very happily and did not bother Wei Nan at all.
"Grandpa... can you stop your bad taste... after all, she is still a little girl..."
"She is so little, she is almost as old as you." Chen Bofu said while laughing, "This girl is fun to tease, unlike you... Although you can't help teasing, but grandpa can't bear it."
After that, Chen Bofu picked up the teacup and drank a sip of tea slowly.
"When you were a child, I accidentally teased you to tears. How could grandpa be so happy as now? I am almost heartbroken..."
"Don't tease her next time." Chen Jing said helplessly.
"Grandpa is telling the truth. She is just not good-looking." Chen Bofu was also a little unconvinced.
"She's not pretty?" Chen Jing was stunned. Seeing Chen Bofu's serious expression, he immediately began to doubt whether there was something wrong with his aesthetic sense... It seems that there is nothing wrong!
Nowadays, the injuries caused by the old man to Wei Nan have completely healed.
The purple marks on her face in the past have disappeared without a trace, and her delicate face is no worse than Xu Ye's.
And in comparison, Wei Nan's good looks seem to be rarer.
How to describe it...
Chen Jing racked his brains to think, and only felt that the "very cool" on the Internet in the world can be used for Wei Nan.
"She is not good-looking." Chen Bofu was still explaining, with a serious face, "I think everyone in the world is fucking ugly as shit, except for my good-looking Jingjing, the others are not good-looking!"
"..."
Enough, it's impolite to praise it any more.
Chen Jing looked at the old man helplessly and told him to eat on time. They would be back very late after shopping today...
"Go ahead." Chen Bofu looked lonely, "Old and lonely people like me should just be empty-nesters, so as not to annoy others."
"..."
Chen Jing was completely silent by the old man's words. He picked up the shopping list and bank card on the table and stuffed them into his backpack to leave.
But before leaving.
He seemed to suddenly think of something and turned around and said something.
"Grandpa, I seem to have heard the divine revelation of Sequence 2."
"What the hell?" Chen Bofu was stunned. He had never thought that Chen Jing could "get" the revelation of the promotion sequence so soon after becoming an old descendant. "Is it true?"
"I won't joke with you about this." Chen Jing said with a smile, "But my promotion ceremony is not that simple..."
"Tell me about it!" Chen Bofu was so excited that it seemed that for him, his grandson's promotion to a higher sequence was more important than anything else. "What materials are needed? Grandpa will find them all for you!"
"You need to go to a place." Chen Jing said truthfully, "That place is in the wasteland, an ancient ruins called 'Yellow King Courtyard'."
Hearing this unfamiliar place name, Chen Bofu frowned and thought for a while, but he didn't seem to have any clues.
"Grandpa Lawrence seems to know where that place is."
"He?" Chen Bofu was stunned, then nodded, "That old guy has been wandering in the wasteland for a long time, and he must know more than ordinary people... No, how can you be sure he knows?"
"I heard him mention that place before." Chen Jing said calmly.
"Then I'll go and ask him now."
Chen Bofu wiped his mouth with a tissue, stood up and dragged Chen Jing away.
"Grandpa, talk to him a little more friendly, we are neighbors, and it's hard to maintain the relationship..."
"Oh, I know!"
Chen Bofu couldn't wait to open the door.
Outside the door.
Wei Nan was squatting in the corridor with red eyes and eating buns pitifully.
The lonely back and the sound of her sniffing from time to time made her look aggrieved.
"Okay, okay, you are the most beautiful in the world!"
Chen Bofu didn't care to comfort her, and took Chen Jing to the elevator with one mind.
"I said...that Xu Ye is nothing!"
