No matter how pitiful the retarded girl was, the people in the village could not care less about her at this moment.
Many girls from various families were kidnapped by the Black Flood Dragon and died tragically on the mountain. The village surrounding the Mountain was covered in a grim and gloomy atmosphere.
The Taoist masters stayed behind and led people up the mountain to find the bones. Many days had passed after they found the bones and properly buried them.
‘When the villagers wanted to look for Tang Li and the rest, they had already left.
As for the retarded girl, when Mr. Li went to her house to give her food, she was nowhere to be found, and no one knew where she went.
On the afternoon of the third day after returning to the village, Tang Li found the retarded girl who had fainted from crying and woke her up. She said to her, “T’ll take you away and cure you of your illness. You can forget about the people and things here.”
The retarded girl was unwilling. “I don’t want to forget Brother Xuanyuan.”
Hearing her say this, Tang Li raised her hand to pat her head and said, “If the two of you are fated, you will definitely meet again in the future. But before that happens, you have to get stronger and healthier so that you can go look for him.”
“Really?”
“Really.”
Yu Meng clenched her fists. “Okay! I will become stronger! Then… What about my parents?”
“We’ll cremate them so that you can bring their ashes with you.”
The girl thought for an hour before agreeing to Tang Li.
Tang Li directly turned the Yu couple’s bodies into ashes and placed them in a jar. The next morning, they boarded the helicopter back to Imperial Capital City.
After arriving, the helicopter was parked in the parking lot of Hospital X.
‘When Tang Li alighted from the helicopter, the first thing she saw was Qi Yihan standing there. Joy welled up in her heart. She walked up to Qi Yihan and smiled as she looked up at him. “Hubby, I’m back.”
Qi Yihan didn’t expect that his heart would instantly melt upon hearing that. He held her hand tightly. Although he had many thousands of things to say to her right now, he compressed them into a gentle “Welcome back”.
‘As they held each other’s hands and looked each other in the eyes, they knew how much they missed each other.
Butler Zhang stole a glance at them and felt inexplicably relieved and happy that finally, someone could make his master live more like a husband and less like a cold and unapproachable boss.
He then walked up to Tang Li and greeted her respectfully, “Madam, welcome back.”
When Tang Li heard this, she smiled at him and said, “Butler Zhang, it’s been a few days since we last met. Should I read your fortune?”
The smile on Butler Zhang’s face froze. He quickly said, “Thank you, Madam, but there’s no need.”
Tang Li shot him a look that said, “You really don’t know what’s good for you.” She then retracted her gaze and looked at Qi Yihan.
At this moment, First Master Tang and Yu Meng walked over.
Qi Yihan called, “First Uncle.”
First Master Tang was a little surprised and quickly responded with a nod.
‘Tang Li introduced Yu Meng to Qi Yihan. “This is the Yu Meng I told you about. For the time being, she will live in the Tang family until I fix her illness.”
‘When Qi Yihan looked at strangers, his gaze involuntarily became cold.
‘As soon as he swept his gaze across her, Yu Meng shuddered in fear.
‘Tang Li tapped on her shoulder. “Yu Meng, don’t be afraid. This is my husband. He looks scary, but he’s not scary at all.”
Qi Yihan turned to look at Tang Li with a solemn expression.
Without knowing it, Tang Li continued, “Later, you’ll go back with First Uncle and live there from now on. When I have time, I’ll come and treat your illness. Don’t worry, I can definitely help you recover. When you recover, you can think about what you want to do in the future.”
Yu Meng nodded and looked at Tang Li with admiration.
“Thank you, Pretty Sister.”
Tang Li then looked at First Master Tang.
First Master Tang said, “Your second uncle and I will be very busy from now on, but you can come home whenever you want. The Tang family is also your home. The door will always be open for you.”
Tang Li nodded.
First Master Tang was anxious to go back and discuss what to do with Second Master. They talked for a while more before he left with Yu Meng.
After the car left, Tang Li and Qi Yihan walked in the direction of their villa.
‘Tang Li told him what happened after the mountain was blown up.
‘When she mentioned that that man was from the Xuanyuan family, Qi Yihan was a little surprised. “He’s actually from the Xuanyuan family.”
“You know them?”
‘Tang Li did not know many of the characters in this book. She only knew from Xuanyuan Qing’s appearance that he was not an ordinary person.
“Mm.” Qi Yihan told her about the Xuanyuan family. “The Xuanyuan family is the tomb keeper. They don’t just guard one tomb. They guard all the imperial tombs.”
“You mean that the Xuanyuan family knows the whereabouts of all the imperial tombs.”
It had to be noted that there were many imperial tombs that had yet to be found.
“Yes, but only the head of the Xuanyuan family has access to the exact location of these tombs.”
Tang Li recalled the dagger Xuanyuan Qing had given her and told Qi Yihan about it.
Qi Yihan came to a realization. “No wonder.”
“What’s with this dagger?”
“In the past few years, the Xuanyuan family has been looking for it. As long as anyone can find this dagger, the Xuanyuan family will give 200 million yuan as a reward… It is said that only the head of the Xuanyuan family has this dagger, which means the current head of Xuanyuan family is a fake, and
the real head is the one you met.”
Hearing that, Tang Li was silent for a moment, and she asked excitedly. “In that case, if I give the dagger to the Xuanyuan family, I can earn two hundred million, right?”
Looking at the money-grubbing woman, Qi Yihan pursed his lips and asked, “Do you want money so bad?”
“Of course.” Tang Li nodded her head vigorously. “When the time comes, I’ll need a lot of money to build my island into what I want it to be.”
“How much do you want? Ten billion?”
Tang Li was stunned by this number. After a few seconds, she said, “…That is a bit too much.”
Qi Yihan tilted his head to look at her and pursed his lips, thinking about how to tell her that he had money and she could spend as much as she wanted.
After returning to the hospital, Tang Li went to see the old man first.
The old man was also very happy to see her after not seeing her for three days.
“I’s good that you’re back safe and sound.”
He then looked at Qi Yihan and said to him, “Take Li to eat something good. Look, she’s lost weight.”
Tang Li was amused by his words and said, “Father, I’ve only been away for three days. How can I lose weight?”
She then glanced at Qi Yihan and added, “But if you take me to eat delicious food, I won’t tum you down.”
Qi Yihan looked at her sparkling eyes and smiled. “Okay.”
The old man watched their interaction and felt relieved.
After chatting with the old man for a while longer, Tang Li went to check on his health data for the past few days.
Qi Yihan had work to do and returned to the villa first.
When Mr. Augustine saw her return, he was also very excited. When she was looking at the data, he anxiously said to her, “Miss Tang, our research has been published on the World Medical Website and in the magazines. Many people have contacted me these last two days and want to cooperate with us.”
