Chapter 1742: Chapter 1742: Take Away the Ring
In the end, the thing he valued most still fell into someone else’s hands.
And his family couldn’t all gather around him, which Jian Yufei felt was a pity.
She never cared about fame and fortune, only about family.
Only family is eternal.
Nangong Wenxiang looked at her, his lips moving slightly.
Jian Yufei bent down: “What do you want to say?”
Nangong Wenxiang struggled to speak: “Take… the ring… don’t let it fall into… Nangong Xu’s… hands…”
Jian Yufei looked up in surprise: “Grandpa, you can talk?”
Nangong Wenxiang blinked. He could speak, but he pretended not to.
At this moment, he looked firmly at Jian Yufei, “Take it away… definitely don’t… give it to him…”
“The ring, you mean the Double Dragon Ring?” Jian Yufei asked, puzzled.
Nangong Wenxiang blinked.
“Why take the ring? Is there a secret?”
“Getting the ring… gets Nangong…”
Getting the ring gets Nangong?
Does it mean Nangong Xu needs the ring to inherit the family?
Jian Yufei was troubled, “If he lets us go, why not let him inherit?”
Nangong Wenxiang’s face suddenly turned fierce: “Take it away… take it away… otherwise I… won’t rest in peace…”
Jian Yufei felt that everything she said to him before was in vain.
He still valued the family’s interests greatly.
Of course, Nangong Xu killed his son, he definitely wouldn’t let him inherit the family as he wished.
If it were her, she wouldn’t let him succeed either.
Actually, taking the ring wasn’t a bad idea. If Nangong Xu went back on his word, she could use the ring to threaten him.
“Where is the ring?”
Nangong Wenxiang looked towards the wall lamp set into the wall.
Jian Yufei followed his gaze, stood up, and touched the wall lamp, “Is there a mechanism here?”
“Turn…” Nangong Wenxiang said.
Jian Yufei turned the wall lamp, and suddenly a slot opened in the wall.
Inside was a small box made of gold.
Jian Yufei took out the box and restored the wall to its original state.
Opening the box, sure enough, inside were ten Double Dragon Rings.
“Why does getting the ring mean inheriting the family?” Jian Yufei asked, puzzled.
*************
Leaving Nangong Wenxiang, Jian Yufei went straight back to her castle residence.
Qi Ruisen was working in the study, and she went to knock on the door.
“Come in.” Qi Ruisen’s voice came from inside.
Jian Yufei pushed the door open and asked him, “Do you have time? I want to tell you something.”
“What’s the matter?” Qi Ruisen stopped his work and got up, gesturing for her to sit down and talk.
Jian Yufei sat down facing him.
“I’m about to leave, and I want to invite Mo Lan to visit our home, and also invite everyone for a meal. What do you think?”
Qi Ruisen thought, it’s just as well, they could also talk to Qi Ruigang.
“Sure, but if Mo Lan comes, Qi Ruigang will definitely come too.”
Jian Yufei nodded, “I know. Let him come too.”
“When do you plan to invite them?”
“How about tomorrow?”
“Okay, I’ll arrange it.”
“Thank you. I won’t disturb you anymore, keep working.” Jian Yufei got up to leave when Qi Ruisen suddenly stopped her.
“Yufei, after you leave, do you have any plans?”
Jian Yufei smiled, “Of course, I’m going back to A City.”
Qi Ruisen smiled again, “Before you go, don’t forget one thing.”
“What is it?”
