Chapter 502: Chapter 530 Horn Sound (4th Update)
When Shangguan Nishang changed her clothes and returned to the hall, she saw her second uncle leaving her seat with a sullen face, and couldnât help but ask Lin Xi,
"What did my second uncle want with you?"
Lin Xi didnât hide anything, "He came over and directly offered three hundred million to buy my jade pendant, even more generous than Elder Shi!"
"You didnât sell it?" Shangguan Nishang asked curiously since her second uncleâs face looked very displeased when he left!
Lin Xi nodded, "Of course I didnât sell it. Itâs a gift for Bai Bing."
"But if he was willing to offer a billion, Iâd consider it!" he added with a twist, "Thatâs exactly what I told him!"
"Unfortunately, he said I wasnât sincere. Well, thereâs nothing I can do; I really was sincere!"
"..." Shangguan Nishang was speechless, thinking to herself why not just go and rob him!
And she could imagine how her second uncle felt at the time, like, âWhy donât you just go and rob me!â
Lin Xi suddenly thought of something and said seriously to Shangguan Nishang, "Thereâs something you need to tell the old man!"
"He canât use a porcelain cup more than five times a day. If he does, not only wonât his body be able to handle it, but the effect of the porcelain cup will halve."
"Why? And how do you know that?" Shangguan Nishang asked, frowning.
Lin Xi thought for a moment and decided a brief explanation was in order, "Donât ask how I know. I can only say all treasures have limits. If they didnât, theyâd be too overwhelming!"
"And the human body has a short-term capacity for accepting certain substances; if exceeded, itâll do more harm than good!"
Seeing he wasnât joking, Shangguan Nishang nodded somewhat understandingly and replied, "Iâll make sure to inform Grandpa seriously!"
Lin Xi didnât say much more, thinking the old man wasnât someone without restraint.
By that time, the birthday banquet was drawing to a close as everyone had eaten and drunk their fill.
Old Man was the first to leave, eagerly returning to his room with a wooden box, and the others gradually dispersed.
Lin Xi approached Shangguan Xiong and Fan Xia to say goodbye. Both of them looked at Lin Xi appreciatively, inviting him to visit often and instructed Shangguan Nishang to send him off.
From a distance, Shangguan Hong gave Lin Xi a wild wink, as if to say, âBrother-in-law, Iâve spoken well of you. You canât treat me badly!â
Lin Xi couldnât be bothered with him and left the villa despite Shangguan Nishang calling after him.
After getting in the car and confirming the address, Shangguan Nishang sped off.
"You really donât want the jade pendant?" Lin Xi asked Shangguan Nishang again out of boredom.
Shangguan Nishang cast a charming sidelong glance at Lin Xi and refused, "No!"
"Actually, it doesnât have to be indoors. This car would be fine too!" Lin Xi persisted, thinking one should have dreams, just in case it comes true!
Besides, heâd never experienced car... rocking before!
To his surprise, Shangguan Nishang wasnât angry. Instead, she retorted, "Does Bai Bing do this?"
Lin Xi thought for a moment and decided that lying wasnât good, so he honestly said, "No..."
"But Iâm sure there will be in the future."
"Then when it happens, weâll consider car... rocking!" Shangguan Nishang smiled triumphantly,
"Also, by then, I want a treasure of equal value to the jade pendant!"
"..." Lin Xi felt like he had dug a hole for himself!
Around nine oâclock, Shangguan Nishang parked the car at the villaâs main entrance, looked at Lin Xi, and said, "Are you sure Bai Bing is here too? Really living with you?"
"Spend a night inside, and youâll definitely see her!" Lin Xi tempted her, thinking to himself, this woman is like a spirit, every move and smile exudes allure and charm!
If it werenât for his strong self-control, an average person would have probably pounced on her!
"Is that so?" Shangguan Nishang showed a sly smile, suddenly slapped the center of the steering wheel, causing the horn to blare throughout the entire villa area, especially the one right in front of her.
"..." Lin Xiâs face turned dark.
