After chatting with Ke Lu for a while, Qi Wu and the others followed the Sanzhu Group's vehicle to the hotel where they were staying.

"This hotel belongs to my family, you can rest assured." Ke Lu said coldly, "There is a mixed crowd of people who have entered the port city recently. I am afraid they all have the same purpose as you."

Shen Xi: "Just because of a few rumors that I don't know whether they are true or not, so many people are flocking to them?"

"One of the sayings is enough to attract them."

"Which point?"

"Have you ever heard of the lost ancient country that reappeared a year ago?"

Hearing Ke Lu's inquiry, Shen Xi restrained his expression and nodded calmly: "Have you heard of it? Is it related to that?"

Ke Luna snorted: "It is rumored that the map guides people to the Land of Destiny, which is a place guarded by priests. Once there, the priests of the temple can grant a wish, regardless of serious illness or power or wealth."

"..."

All three people were silent.

Before the fall of the ancient country, temples were worshiped throughout the ancient country, and they prayed to the statues day after day, hoping that one day the temple priests would answer their wishes.

But the temple priest never responded.

Shen Xi coughed and moved his teasing gaze towards Qi Wu: "Can you express your thoughts?"

Qi Wu calmly said six words with that serious expression: "Don't believe rumors, don't spread rumors."

"?"

The moment Shen Xi was dumbfounded, Jin Si couldn't help but laugh.

Ke Lu turned around and looked over with some confusion.

"fine."

Shen Xi suppressed a smile and shook his head.

...

After arriving at the hotel, Ke Lu did not follow him any further.

Jin Si and Shen Xi went to check in, and Ke Lu left Qi Wu in the lobby to talk.

"This place belongs to the Ke family's property. No one who is short-sighted would dare to come here to cause trouble. You can stay here with peace of mind."

"good."

Qi Wu nodded obediently.

Ke Lu looked at her quiet and peaceful face, and couldn't help but frown at the thought of her being involved in a troublesome matter.

"Why are you involved..."

She hesitated to speak, as if she wanted to blame Jin Si for bringing Qi Wu to such a dangerous place, but she didn't say it in the end.

"It has something to do with me too."

"and you?"

Ke Lu was stunned for a moment. Although her eyebrows were still frowning, she had relaxed a lot. She did not continue to ask, but just nodded: "I understand."

Qi Wu seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, and looked straight into her eyes: "Don't do anything that will embarrass yourself."

"......I know."

Ke Lu paused for a moment, then nodded somewhat sarcastically.

Looking at Jin Si, who was already walking towards them, out of the corner of his eye, Ke Lu suddenly asked, "Are you getting married?"

Jin Si raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but his steps slowed down.

"Soon." Qi Wu said with a smile on his lips, "Will you come then?"

"I will."

Ke Lu nodded solemnly, "I will definitely come."

Outside the hotel lobby, several members of the Sanzhu Group were sneaking around the door, trying hard to observe the situation inside.

"Who is that little girl?"

"This is the first time I've seen the eldest lady like this..."

"I remembered!"

One of the people suddenly screamed, which instantly attracted the curious eyes of others. They surrounded him, blocked him in the middle and asked eagerly: "What did you remember? Tell me!"

"I went to Kyoto to meet the eldest lady before, and she specially asked me to bring Hong Kong City's specialty pastries... That pastry is just for this little girl."

"Eh-"

The others immediately made sounds of surprise.

he

They sighed: "I didn't expect that the eldest lady would actually like such a delicate and soft little girl."

"She is not a delicate and soft little girl."

Ke Lu's cold and unique voice sounded behind them, startling everyone, and even her voice trembled: "Miss, Miss!!"

Ke Lu's warning gaze swept across the group of gossiping subordinates and responded coldly: "You will know soon."

"yes!"

All the subordinates stood upright and looked intently, but they all muttered in their hearts - the eldest lady is really protecting her shortcomings!

"Walk."

Ke Lu didn't care what his subordinates thought and took the first step.

...

In the hotel suite, Jin Si finished packing their luggage and walked out. There was a curved floor-to-ceiling window in the suite, facing the night view of the sea in the distance.

Qi Wu was leaning on the sofa rocking chair next to the floor-to-ceiling window, quietly staring into the distance.

Jin Si could not help but walk lightly and walked over.

Qi Wu raised his head when he came to her side.

"...The auction will start in three days. Do you want to have some fun in the port city during these two days? Or do you want to stay with Ke Lu for a while."

Jin Si lifted up the hair hanging down by her ears and tucked it behind her ears.

Qi Wu shook his head: "Ke Lu said that people in Hong Kong have been busy these past two days, and she needs to be in charge personally."

"I see."

Jin Si's lips curled up, "That's still mine."

Qi Wu reminded him helplessly: "Have you forgotten Shen Xi?"

"He's not so short-sighted as to be an eyesore. What's more, this place attracts him more. I guess he's no longer in the hotel."

In his previous life, Shen Xi lived a carefree and wild life. On weekdays, he liked to hang out in entertainment venues and have a good time, and he could get into any little tricks.

The Hong Kong City has a developed entertainment industry and is known as the city that never sleeps. For Shen Xi, it is not an exaggeration to call this place a dream paradise.

"..."..

Qi Wu thought of how depressed and tired he was when he was in the temple, so it was indeed very possible.

She shook her head helplessly and amusedly, no longer worrying about his affairs.

"Then where are we going?"

"Go where you haven't been."

Jin Si confided gently.

He still remembered that when she first came to this world, she was curious about every plant and tree here.

No matter good or bad, she wanted to see it.

"Um?"

Qi Wu raised his eyebrows, with a hint of curiosity in his tone.

Jin Si did not point it out directly: "You will know tomorrow."

Qi Wu looked at him quietly for a while, then lowered his head silently and shifted his gaze to the street scene outside.

She said nothing, but you could tell from her back that she was sulking.

Jin Si couldn't help laughing.

"So angry?"

He squeezed into the sofa and clung to Qi Wu's side. His deep voice lingered in Qi Wu's ears, low and low, with a slightly hoarse magnetism.

"No."

Qi Wu didn't even look back.

Jin Si laughed dumbly and hugged her into his arms: "You told Ke Lu today that we are getting married soon?"

Qi Wu's eyebrows moved and his tone slowed down: "Yeah."

"This time, you will get your wish."

The calm tone is like a prophecy.

Jin Si tightened his grip on her slightly, and sighed like a whisper floating in the wind: "The moment I got you, I already got my wish."

The temple priests always only granted his wishes.
