Chapter 567 - 567 Missing Han Shi
567 Missing Han Shi
Outside the Hong family’s old residence.
Everyone watched in shock as the lightning bolts that were as thick as buckets destroyed the old residence. They were so frightened that their hearts almost stopped beating. They widened their eyes and were glad that they were asked to leave by Elder Hong earlier.
“What should we do? Old master and the butler are still inside!”
“What do you mean what should we do? Hurry up and call the others!”
“I called, but no one answered…”
“Then go in and save them.”
“But, it’s already like this. Can we still save them?” The lightning was so fierce just now. The people inside were definitely doomed.
“Stop arguing. Look at the news…”
It was noisy outside the old residence, but inside was ‘peaceful’.
Qin Xi walked up to the unconscious Elder Hong and looked down at him. Her cold expression was filled with mockery as she drew a talisman in the air and attached it to Elder Hong’s body.
Elder Hong trembled and slowly opened his eyes. A trace of confusion flashed across his eyes. He was probably thinking that since he had been struck by lightning, why wasn’t he dead?
At this moment, a demonic voice sounded above his head.
“Now, can you tell me why you want this thing?”
Elder Hong took a few deep breaths and looked at the roof that had been blasted open by the lightning. His body trembled as he thought of the secret of the pendant. As long as he was not dead, there would be a chance.
At the thought of this, he held his breath and said with a trembling voice, “I, I really don’t know what you’re talking about! I wanted that pendant because… it is the love token between me and my wife.”
Qin Xi didn’t have the patience to waste any more time with him. She said coldly, “It’s fine. You can choose not to tell me the truth. I forgot to tell you that I have a technique called the Soul Searching Technique. As long as I gently touch your forehead with my fingertip, I can sense all the memories in your mind, and you will become an idiot.”
“How is it? Do you want to try?”
Elder Hong almost fainted. His face was pale like a trapped beast on the verge of death. He panted heavily. “You, you… aren’t you afraid of the Hong family taking revenge on you?”
After all, the Hong family was the number one family in the capital. No matter how powerful she was, it was impossible for her to withstand the power of the Hong family.
“Hong family?” Qin Xi laughed louder and louder. “Have you forgotten about the oath you just made and how you were struck by the lightning?”
Qin Xi sneered and stretched out her finger lazily, touching the space between Elder Hong’s eyebrows.
In an instant, a wisp of Qin Xi’s consciousness entered Elder Hong’s mind. Memories that belonged to him appeared in Qin Xi’s mind frame by frame, including the shameful things he had done all these years.
When Qin Xi retracted her hand, Elder Hong had already become a fool. There was saliva flowing down the corner of his mouth. When he looked at Qin Xi, he smiled foolishly.
This foolish smile suddenly reminded Qin Xi of Han Shi. She recalled that when Han Shi was still a fool, he used to smile like this when he looked at her. However, there was light surrounding Han Shi, a light comparable to the Milky Way!
She wondered what that man was doing now. How was he? Did he miss her?
