Wu Tian smiled and said, "It's not really a discovery."
"Didn't you hear what I told him to take back earlier? Those words weren't just casual talk; they were carefully chosen."
"Hmm?" Bai Ruoqi clearly didn't understand what Wu Tian was talking about.
She couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean? Can you explain it to me in detail?"
Wu Tian explained, "It's like this, based on the information you told me earlier, your cousin probably didn't have absolute certainty."
"After all, if he did, he wouldn't have resorted to such petty tactics."
"Since that's the case, he's actually very afraid of your family fighting to the death with them."
"Because even if he could win against you in this struggle, he would definitely suffer heavy losses himself."
"Think about it, his goal is to take over your entire family."
"If he were severely weakened and someone else benefited from the situation, do you think he would do something so foolish?"
"That's why I reminded him to be more restrained in the future and not go too far."
"Otherwise, we would be ready to fight him to the death at any time, and it would depend on whether he could bear the cost."
"You see, with our attitude being so firm, he's bound to be hesitant and cautious."
"Therefore, until he has absolute certainty, your family is temporarily safe."
Wu Tian spoke a long string of words and only then realized that Bai Ruoqi was staring at him blankly, as if she had seen a monster.
Wu Tian couldn't help but feel a little confused by this.
He said, "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something dirty on my face?"
Bai Ruoqi snapped back to reality and said with great admiration, "No, no, I just think you're too amazing, to have solved this problem so easily."
"You know, this problem has been troubling our family for a long time."
"I have to say, you're simply a divine being, I admire you so much!"
As Bai Ruoqi spoke, her beautiful eyes even showed a faint shimmer, indicating her genuine astonishment at Wu Tian.
Wu Tian felt a little embarrassed. He averted his gaze and said, "This shouldn't be a big deal. I just happened to think of this move. Don't praise me too much."
Despite his words, Bai Ruoqi continued to look at Wu Tian with admiration, like a devoted fan.
If her family saw this scene, they would be extremely surprised.
After all, a woman like Bai Ruoqi was a goddess to many, someone unattainable for countless people.
Yet, Bai Ruoqi was now acting this way towards Wu Tian, which they would find utterly unbelievable.
Wu Tian felt a bit awkward and quickly said, "Hey, hey, hey, can you stop looking at me like that?"
"If you keep looking, I'm going to get goosebumps all over."
"Anyway, I'm getting ready to leave. If you need anything, remember to call me, and I'll definitely rush back."
"You help me, and I'll help you. Feelings between people should be mutual."
Having said that, Wu Tian felt there was nothing more to say.
He waved his hand and said, "Alright, since there's nothing else, I'm leaving. Take good care of yourself."
Wu Tian turned and left. Watching his retreating back, Bai Ruoqi finally came back to her senses.
A strong emotion surged within her, and she couldn't help but run after Wu Tian.
Her high heels clicked on the ground as she ran, and she directly embraced Wu Tian from behind.
"Wait a moment!" she exclaimed.
Wu Tian hadn't expected Bai Ruoqi to do something like this.
He paused and said, "What are you doing? Is there something else?"
Bai Ruoqi buried her head in Wu Tian's back and whispered, "I know I shouldn't say this, but I don't want you to go. Why don't you take me with you?"
Wu Tian naturally wouldn't agree to such a request.
He didn't know how dangerous the future would be, so how could he take Bai Ruoqi with him?
He smiled gently and said, "Why would you say that? You're the eldest daughter of the Bai family."
"Someone of your status shouldn't be following others, because there are plenty of people who will follow you."
"You can't come with me. Stay here and manage the company properly."
"Don't worry, I won't be gone for too long."
"And after I leave, I'll tell you anything you want to know, okay?"
Bai Ruoqi knew she had acted impulsively, but she felt a strong sense of reluctance.
She said softly, "Wu Tian, when you come back, I have something I want to tell you. You have to listen to me seriously then."
Wu Tian nodded and said, "No problem, I'll listen to you slowly then."
Afterward, Bai Ruoqi let go of Wu Tian.
Wu Tian then stepped forward, walked away, and drove back to Peach Blossom Village.
He briefed the village chief on a few matters and then managed to fob off Zhou Qian with great difficulty.
The next morning, he boarded a plane and headed to X Province.
A brand new journey had begun.
This time, he was looking for a sect called the Divine Artifact Sect, a sect specializing in appraising treasures.
It was said to have collected many good items and was considered a very wealthy sect among the Five Sects and Six Teachings.
The Divine Artifact Sect was located in the provincial capital of X Province.
Wu Tian landed at noon. He didn't plan to head to the Divine Artifact Sect immediately but intended to rest first and go tomorrow.
Although he had eaten on the plane,
the airplane meals were what they were, and he couldn't eat much, so he didn't eat much.
As soon as he got off the plane, his stomach started rumbling.
So, after arriving in the city center, he found a restaurant and went in.
He was now a wealthy man, so his spending habits had naturally increased.
In the past, he only dared to eat at small eateries, but now he went to high-end restaurants.
A beautiful waitress in black stockings greeted him. Seeing so many people in the lobby, he found it noisy and requested a VIP private room for some peace and quiet.
The beautiful waitress, seeing Wu Tian's wealth and generosity, immediately became more attentive.
She even leaned closer to Wu Tian, her words and actions filled with subtle hints.
However, Wu Tian ignored these hints.
After being seated in the private room and ordering his food, the waitress wanted to give him a massage, but he declined and directly asked the waitress to leave.
A while later, the food was served. He picked up his chopsticks, ready to feast.
But just then, there was a knock on the door.
