Chapter 1093: A Sigh of Relief
I put so much effort into looking, but I couldn't find my mother. How does this Ren Tianye know where she is? That's one question. Another is, if Ren Tianye knows, why doesn't he just tell me directly? Why does he want me to seek him out? Isn't that troublesome?
These questions combined made Qianxi start to doubt the truth of this message. Or maybe it's just a trap set by Ren Tianye. Thinking of this, Qianxi couldn't help but scratch his head, wondering when he became so suspicious.
Just go, who cares? I don't believe that Ren Tianye can actually do anything to me. No, no, I can't go. Ren Tianye must be fully prepared, and going would be a life-or-death situation. At this moment, it's as if Qianxi had two little people on his shoulders, an angel and a demon, one telling him to go, and the other telling him not to.
After hesitating for a long time, Qianxi still couldn't make up his mind. So he angrily slapped the table, then took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. Alone, he surely wouldn't come up with any idea. Since he didn't have an idea, he should find someone to consult with.
Thinking of this, the first person Qianxi thought of was Liu Rui, but Liu Rui had never interacted with Ren Tianye, so he certainly couldn't provide any useful advice. Qianxi decided to go to Xiao Yifei for a discussion; if there's deceit, it would be bad for him.
Qianxi quickly stood up and then left his home, heading rapidly to Hua Mansion. At Hua Mansion, since Xiao Yifei had almost recovered, he wasn't lying in bed any longer. After all, taking a walk is beneficial for the body. So when Qianxi arrived at Hua Mansion, he saw Xiao Yifei strolling in the yard like an old man.
Seeing this scene made Qianxi laugh because Xiao Yifei really looked like an older man over fifty who needed health care. At this moment, Xiao Yifei also noticed Qianxi, intending to greet him, but found Qianxi laughing at him, feeling a bit puzzled. He looked at himself, finding nothing wrong, and was quite bewildered.
"What's up, taking a walk?" Qianxi said, unable to hide the smile on his face. Upon hearing that, Xiao Yifei nodded. Seeing Qianxi still smiling, Xiao Yifei became curious and asked, "You came over with such a bright smile, what good thing happened?"
Hearing that Xiao Yifei didn't realize he was laughing at him, Qianxi helplessly shook his head and said, "Nothing, just saw a young man into health care on the way over." Upon hearing this, Xiao Yifei was stunned for a moment, then frowned. Seeing Xiao Yifei's expression, Qianxi thought Xiao Yifei finally understood.
But. The next second, Xiao Yifei almost made Qianxi laugh himself to death because Xiao Yifei began to righteously extol the benefits of health care, speaking with great conviction, leaving Qianxi no room to object.
This is a doctor, indeed, Qianxi couldn't help but think. After Xiao Yifei finished speaking, Qianxi helplessly pursed his lips and then slowly revealed his purpose for coming this time.
"What, Ren Tianye said that?" Xiao Yifei listened to Qianxi's words, immediately feeling a bit incredulous. Like Qianxi, he also didn't believe Ren Tianye's words much. "Do you think what Ren Tianye said is true?" Qianxi looked at Xiao Yifei, asking in confusion. He truly came over for this reason.
Upon hearing, Xiao Yifei shook his head, his face more serious than before. "I don't know," Xiao Yifei said slowly. Hearing Xiao Yifei say he didn't know, Qianxi felt strange and asked what Xiao Yifei meant. After asking, Xiao Yifei smiled bitterly, saying, "This is obviously a setup, and we can't help but go."
What Xiao Yifei said was a bit obscure, but Qianxi understood that Ren Tianye's words were meant to lure Qianxi over. But why can't he help but go? Qianxi didn't understand. "If I know it's a setup, can't I just not go?" Qianxi's tone seemed very straightforward.
However, Xiao Yifei helplessly smiled and said, "It's not that simple. You have to know that my Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle is still there, and the aftereffect of your cultivation technique still requires the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle." After saying this, Xiao Yifei's expression seemed a bit complicated, and Qianxi suddenly realized and nodded.
"So what should we do now?" Qianxi, knowing that Ren Tianye indeed deceived him, also didn't know what to do, so he asked. After asking, Xiao Yifei sneered and slowly said, "Go, why not go? I want to see what on earth Ren Tianye is capable of."
Hearing Xiao Yifei say this, Qianxi immediately became interested because what Xiao Yifei implied was to face danger head-on, a trait that matches Qianxi's personality perfectly. So Qianxi confidently smiled and nodded approvingly.
Seeing this, Xiao Yifei touched his chin and smiled. Since Ren Tianye wants him to come, why not comply? Xiao Yifei has never been afraid of these things.
"I believe Ren Tianye won't be able to do anything to us," Xiao Yifei said as he nonchalantly stretched, seemingly not caring about Ren Tianye at all. Then, Xiao Yifei scratched his head, turned his head to Qianxi, and asked, "Why does Ren Tianye know about your mother?"
After asking, Qianxi realized that these matters seem only known to Xiao Yifei and himself, so how does Ren Tianye know? Thinking of this, Qianxi couldn't help but frown. Could it be that Ren Tianye investigated him covertly? Qianxi almost confirmed this suspicion because there's no other way to know about his mother.
But Xiao Yifei's real intention seemed not to be about Qianxi's mother, as he shifted the topic and said, "No, why would Ren Tianye investigate you?" Xiao Yifei guessed that Ren Tianye had investigated Qianxi, but why was a puzzle for him since logically, Ren Tianye should have no acquaintance with Qianxi.
Investigating a complete stranger, did Ren Tianye do it out of boredom? This was why Xiao Yifei asked these questions. As expected, seeing Xiao Yifei ask this, Qianxi's face turned awkward because he hadn't told Xiao Yifei about his visit to the central building.
Xiao Yifei, being smart, noticed Qianxi's expression and realized he was hiding something, so his gaze became suspicious, with a mischievous smile on his lips. Seeing Xiao Yifei's expression, Qianxi felt helpless, thinking, how could this person be so perceptive to guess he was hiding something with just a casual question?
"Spill it, what's up?" Xiao Yifei tilted his head, smiling as he asked. Seeing Xiao Yifei like this, Qianxi helplessly sighed and slowly said, "It's like this, I went to the central building alone." After finishing, Qianxi nervously touched his nose, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
