The Real Miss is a Genius Taoist Master - Chapter 141
Professor Jiang’s home is a well-known villa area in Jiangnan City. It’s not about how expensive the house prices are, but that many of the residents here are celebrities in the cultural and artistic circles, and there are also many stars. The security management is very strict.
Because Professor Jiang informed the door guard that only Tang Xi was the guest, even if Pei Qingzhi was the developer, he was turned away.
“It’s okay, I’ll just walk in.” Tang Xi got out of the car holding the framed calligraphy box, and registered at the door. The guard let him go.
There are not many residents in the community and the greenery is very good. You can feel alive even in winter. Walking along the path, you can smell the faint fragrance of plants and trees in your nose.
“Xixi, here.” From a distance, Jiang Xiaoli beckoned and ran towards her, “I’ll pick you up.”
“No, I can recognize the way. It’s such a cold day.” Tang Xi also quickened his pace.
“I’m fine anyway.” Jiang Xiaoli smiled embarrassedly, “My mother was cooking and she didn’t want me to get in the way, so she kicked me out of the kitchen. I think you should almost be there, so I went out and turned around. Waiting.”
“Trouble auntie.” Tang Xi said.
“No trouble, no trouble. If you don’t come, our family will have to eat. Grandpa doesn’t like nanny housekeeping and cooking.” Jiang Xiaoli waved her hand and took her to her house while saying, “Moreover, although grandpa doesn’t believe me, my dad Mom is very grateful to you. Actually, I wanted to invite Mr. Gu together, but I was afraid that Grandpa would be angry and say that we are feudal and superstitious.”
“Gu Ran, he has been very busy lately, and he has taken it kindly.” Tang Xi said.
“And…ah, cousin!” Jiang Xiaoli was halfway through, waving his hand excitedly.
A young man walked over with his hands in, and it was indeed Jiang Xia who brought them to the tomb in Chang’an.
“Seeing you turning around at the door and not coming back, I knew Miss Tang must be here.” Jiang Xia smiled.
“It seems to be recovering well.” Tang Xi said, looking at him.
“Ah, I don’t know what’s wrong, the memory in the ancient tomb is a bit unclear. I vaguely feel that I was attacked by a ghost, so I don’t know anything. I have to thank Miss Tang and Mr. Gu.” Jiang Xia replied.
Tang Xi smiled without saying a word.
Xie Changan didn’t change all of his memories, just obscured them, so Jiang Xia remembered that there were ghosts in the ancient tomb, but I can’t remember exactly what the ghosts looked like and how they were knocked down. This is better for him. , Will not form a shadow.
“By the way, I’ve always been curious about a question.” Tang Xi turned off the topic, “Why is Mr. Jiang’s surname Jiang? Because of the same sound, I didn’t find it when I introduced it last time, so I should look at the case closure report after I came back. Arrived.”
“It’s because my mother’s surname is Jiang.” Jiang Xia smiled helplessly. “My grandfather is more…well, stubborn and stubborn. At that time, he always opposed my dad and my mom being together because of the same surname, even if their surnames are just the same. Different words. My dad has completely inherited his grandfather’s strong temper. Not only did he argue with my mother, but he also gave me the surname Jiang—ah, I don’t usually hear it. Until I grew up and studied in the Department of Archeology, Grandpa The relationship with Dad slowly improved.”
Tang Xi was silent for a while, then turned her head and asked seriously: “Xiao Li, you can honestly tell me that Professor Jiang asked me to come to eat, don’t you really want to call me to curse?”
“Cough cough, of course not.” Jiang Xia sighed and said softly, “Grandpa counted the ruined tomb on the tomb robbers. Xiaoli and I told him that you are a serious case in the city bureau. The consultant of the group, he is satisfied.”
“…” Tang Xi coughed dryly, not laughing or crying.
“What we said is the truth.” Jiang Xia spread his hands.
“Yes!” Jiang Xiaoli nodded again and again, “By the way, Xixi, did you catch a thief who snatched a bag yesterday?”
“Do you know this too?” Tang Xi asked in surprise.
“It’s really you.” Jiang Xiaoli smiled. “There was a hot search yesterday. The title was’The Angel of Justice with a Lamborghini Chasing Thieves’, but it was taken away soon. I just took a look, although it only captured it. Back view, but that car should be yours, right? I heard Xiao Shuang say that there are not many cars in this color in Jiangnan City.”
“I am chasing the thief, but Gu Ran is the one who arrested.” Tang Xi said.
“Grandpa saw it too, and praised you.” Jiang Xiaoli added.
Tang Xi sighed, okay… at least the bad debts in the tomb were exposed. She really wouldn’t be able to deal with the kind of stubborn, biased and selfless old people.
Walking to the door of a villa, Jiang Xiaoli ran forward and opened the door a few steps: “Grandpa, Mom and Dad, Xixi is here.”
Tang Xi calmly stepped forward to say hello and gave a gift.
Professor Jiang was shocked when he saw the character, and then laughed rarely: “It is rare for a girl now to practice calligraphy to this level. I let Xiaoli practice calligraphy, and I still look like a dog. of.”
“Grandpa… the brush is so difficult, I practice pen writing very well.” Jiang Xiaoli protested weakly.
“What a good thing, this is the cultural heritage of our country for thousands of years!” Professor Jiang glared at her, and then handed the words to the middle-aged man next to him, Jiang Xiaoli’s father, Jiang Yan, “Take me to the study tomorrow. .”
“I know.” Jiang Yan took it with a smile, and exaggerated a few words, “Xiao Tang also studies history, he should like it.”
“The person who taught me how to write once said, learn Chinese characters and be quiet.” Tang Xi replied and asked, “Professor Jiang, I came back in a hurry last time, did those tomb robbers sentence it?”
“It’s all sent to the Chang’an Municipal Bureau. The evidence is conclusive. You can’t run away, but the specific sentence has not come out so quickly.” Professor Jiang sighed, “Thanks to you, or else I don’t know about this ancient city. How much ruin will the tomb suffer? Some people do everything for money! Just like the robbery yesterday, they hit a child while riding a bike and ran away. Fortunately, it was a bruise.”
Tang Xi listened with a smile, as long as the tomb’s account was settled to make the elderly happy, she used to do a lot in the sect, and she was comfortable.
Soon, Mrs. Jiang in the kitchen greeted Jiang Xiaoli and Jiang Xia to go in and serve food.
Tang Xi took a glance and knew that he said that he would have to eat at home, but it was obvious that the dishes on this table were not very homely, and it was completely up to the standards of a banquet. She was the only object of this—Professor Jiang didn’t say yes. I can’t wipe my face off, but I am really grateful.
Of course, being a student… still has to decline.
After all, she didn’t have much interest in archaeology itself, and there was no need to grab the places of students who really wanted to go this way.
Generally speaking, this meal still enjoyed the guests and the host.
Jiang Yan and his wife were also very satisfied with Tang Xi, but Jiang Xiaoli quietly told her that in the past, her grandfather and parents didn’t really like Tang Jing, and thought she was fake, but not as sincere as Xia Shuang. Now that she has praised her for making friends, her vision has finally improved.
“So, are we friends?” Jiang Xiaoli’s eyes were shining, full of expectation.
Tang Xi was startled and nodded with a smile.
After dinner, because Tang Xi didn’t drive here and it was not easy to take a taxi here in the villa area, Jiang Xia volunteered to drive her back.
Tang Xi did not refuse either, but after the car drove out of the community, Jiang Xia’s words surprised her: “I just came back from Qingjiang City a few days ago and I accidentally heard about something.”
“What?” Tang Xi brows jumped.
In Qingjiang City, since Zhuang Shijie was arrested in Nanjiang City, a new criminal investigation captain has been replaced by the city bureau. Due to internal review, the new captain was parachuted from other provinces and has nothing to do with all factions in Qingjiang City.
“I heard that you are going to attend Pei’s 50th anniversary celebration?” Jiang Xia asked.
“Do you know this too?” Tang Xi couldn’t help frowning.
Pei Qingzhi will not talk about this kind of personal matter casually, so, the only one who knows that this matter will talk about it is…
“The upper circle of Jiangnan City has probably spread all over the place.” Jiang Xia chuckled. “After all, this is the first time Mr. Pei, the No. 1 diamond king in Jiangnan City, has brought a female companion to a formal occasion in his life. The connections of our Jiang family Although mainly in academia, my mother’s family is in business, and this kind of news can still be heard. I will also go there, although it is troublesome… it is better to go to the grave with grandpa.”
“Fu Xiao or Li Qingxue?” Tang Xi rubbed her forehead.
“You know.” Jiang Xia straightened her face and lowered her voice slightly, “The Fu family’s hometown is in Qingjiang, and the foundation is still there.”
Tang Xi was startled, suddenly as if thinking of something, her expression sank slightly.
However, Jiang Xia obviously didn’t know what she thought of, and just said, “I don’t know why. I just feel that the relationship between the Fu family and the Pei family is not good. Now that you have been in the muddy water, you should be careful. Fu Xiao, a woman who looks gentle and kind, is actually the best at acting.”
“Do you know Fu Xiao well?” Tang Xi became interested.
“It’s hard to say that I understand.” Jiang Xia said slyly, “For a while, the Fu family and my mother mentioned a marriage-that, I refused.”
“You don’t like Fu Xiao?” Tang Xi raised an eyebrow.
“Hey, I still like to follow my grandfather to go to the tomb for archaeology. I will probably not inherit the family business in the future. I am not a world person like a daughter like Fu Xiao.” Jiang Xia said calmly.
“Thank you.” Tang Xi nodded to him, without asking anything else.
“Actually, President Pei is pretty good.” Jiang Xia said suddenly.
“I know that the other person is very good.” Tang Xi looked at him a little puzzled.
“…” Jiang Xia opened her mouth, but she couldn’t tell when she looked at her clear eyes. She held back for a long time before saying, “Well, the previous banquet…”
“I know, he told me.” Tang Xi couldn’t help but finish it for him.
Jiang Xia sighed and wanted to say no, you don’t know…Forget it, I can’t figure out this kind of thing, and others can’t get any idea.
“Just say what you want, and I won’t hit you.” Tang Xi was also uncomfortable seeing his hesitant expression.
“No, really not.” Jiang Xia immediately shook his head.
Can you say that the entire upper circle of Jiangnan City knows that Pei is always chasing you, but you don’t know it?
Forget it, I will be blacklisted by Mr. Pei if he speaks it out.
Tang Xi went home with a belly full of doubts, Chu Li was still working overtime, and there was only one text message “Go home early” on his phone.
After the shower, she couldn’t help but call someone who made her uneasy: “How bad is your relationship with the Fu family?”
Pei Qingzhi was stunned for a long time before repliing: “After all, it’s relatives, just like Guan Li and Fu Xiao’s affairs. I will also help if you ask, but I don’t have much contact. However, I have to say something bad… I heard my grandfather said, It seems that my mother had a bad relationship with several of my uncles.”
“So…” Tang Xi fell silent.
“Why do you ask this suddenly?” Pei Qing hesitated for a while, “Did Jiang Xia tell you something?”
“Um… it’s nothing.” Tang Xi squeezed the phone and suddenly didn’t know what to say.
Obviously, before dialing the phone, I still feel that I have a lot to ask.
“My mother…” Pei Qingzhi only said two words and stopped.
The breathing in the microphone was clear and audible. After a long time, he said, “No one from the Fu family came at the funeral.”
“Funeral? There is something, although I’m not embarrassed, but…” Tang Xi hesitated.
“It’s okay, just ask.” Pei Qingzhi said.
“Well, your parents died in an air crash, what about… the remains?” Tang Xi asked softly.
“The plane that crashed back then was actually Pei’s private plane. After the crash, my aunt accompanied my grandfather to the place where the accident occurred.” Pei Qingzhi explained, “The number of victims was not large. Although the remains looked tragic, they still… just listen. After speaking, my aunt was ill for a long time, and she said she was scared by the scene.”
“I see. See you in a few days.” Tang Xi finished speaking and hung up the phone.
“What are you doubting?” Yun Qi appeared beside her.
“I’ve seen the ghost peeping at Pei Qingzhi.” Tang Xi looked up and said, “Very weak.”
Yun Qi was stunned for a moment. He didn’t care about the ghost. What’s more, for him, basically the ghosts he encountered were very weak. It was nothing more than the difference between an ant and a larger ant.
“Pei Qingzhi’s yin and yang eyes were forcefully opened by the day after tomorrow. It’s not complete. He shouldn’t be able to see such a weak ghost.” Tang Xi continued.
“I can leapfrog and let him see it, could it be…” Yun Qi couldn’t help but move.
“I also specifically concealed the causes and consequences and asked the identity of Pei Qingzhi. He also had the same opinion.” Tang Xi said solemnly, “The most likely thing is that this ghost is his blood relative.”
“Blood relatives…” Yun Qi repeated.
“So it can be seen by him, so it’s not malicious to him.” Tang Xi said.
“Do you suspect that it was his…father or mother?” Yun Qi couldn’t help but object, “but that was all twenty years ago, and Pei Qingzhi had opened yin and yang eyes for more than a year. If it were his parents, How can it only appear now?”
“So I asked him about the condition of his body.” Tang Xi replied, “Although the probability is very low and very low, there is still a possibility.”
“You mean…” Yun Qi was shocked.
“Well, because the corpse is too shattered, and even the soul is torn apart. Over a long period of time, they are slowly pieced together.” Tang Xi calmly said, “You see the ghost’s appearance, it is completely formed piece by piece. Something. You know the pain of soul tearing best, and his situation is thousands of times more serious than when you protected me from being torn apart by space when you traveled through space. Under such pain, you can persist without dissipating, it’s really true. It’s great perseverance to fight yourself back. Normally, having this perseverance means either having great love in your heart or deep enmity.”
“He has no malice towards Pei Qingzhi.” Yun Qi said for her.
“Is it right? I’ll know when I see it next time.” Tang Xi put the phone on the bedside table, her eyes a little cold, “If my guess is correct, then the plane crash that year was not necessarily an accident. “
Yun Qi was silent for a while, then slipped back into the bracelet.
On the other side, Pei Qingzhi, who hung up, was also in a complicated mood.
Today, he rarely returned to his old house. Without Tang Xi’s rune enchantment, he could obviously feel the ghost following him dodge.
However, the ghost seems to be afraid of something on his body, as long as he is close, it will panic and avoid it. He tried to communicate at a distance, but the other party just looked at him quietly, as if not wise.
He felt Tang Xi’s unfinished words, and the urgency in his heart was even greater.
You-who are you?
In the days that followed, there was not much contact. After the dress was finished, Tang Xi took the time to go to Grandma Zhao to try it on, and brought back the remaining two sets of Hanfu by the way.
Until Christmas Day.
“I always feel that if you go to participate, something bad will definitely happen.” Chu Li sent her downstairs.
Even if he and Pei Qing have a good relationship, the identity of the merchant celebrity and the leader of the serious case is doomed, and it is impossible for Chu Li to participate in all the business activities of Pei’s public.
“So, get ready at any time.” Tang Xi was wearing a black fishtail mopping dress, carrying a small lambskin bag, and wearing a cashmere coat of the same color. He turned around and pointed at his mobile phone and smiled, “Maybe , I will call the police at any time.”
“Can you give Pei Qing some face?” Chu Li sighed.
“My guess is not accurate, I will know soon.” Tang Xi waved her hand and walked towards the Porsche with her skirt.
Chu Li shook his head behind.
Which girl went to the dance party not to have a handkerchief, perfume, lipstick, mirror, but a handcuffed hand|gun police officer certificate law enforcement instrument…I hope Pei’s activity can come to a successful conclusion?
“Why do you come to pick me up in person?” Tang Xi smiled while wearing a seat belt. “There should have been guests here by now, right? Mr. Pei is not there?”
“Grandpa is here.” Pei Qingzhi was calm.
In order to match Tang Xi’s black dress, he was wearing a black silk shirt, silver-gray suit, and a dark purple tie. Even if the heating is on in the car, it makes people feel cold when looking at it.
“The winter solstice a few days ago, I went to sweep the tomb for my parents.” Pei Qingzhi said suddenly.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh?” Tang Xi was dumbfounded, looking at him somewhat puzzled.
Only the dim street lamp came in in the car, the light swept through the earlobe, and the low-key light flashing between the hairs was vaguely seen.
“Actually, my grandfather also suspected that the air crash was not a natural disaster.” Pei Qing sighed and said slowly, “It’s just that Pei’s wind and rain was precarious at the time, and I was still young. Grandpa was so busy that I was kidnapped, grandpa. I completely stopped my thorough investigation. Twenty years have passed, I’m afraid I can’t find any more evidence.”
“It turns out that you also understand.” Tang Xi turned to look at the street lights fast backwards outside the car window.
“After I grew up, I tried to investigate and even hired private investigators, but nothing came of it.” Pei Qingzhi said again, “The Fu family seems to be indifferent to my mother’s death, and it’s just a matter of affection for me. It still depends on the fact that I inherited part of the shares of the Fu family. With my aunt, as long as I ask, she will be hysterical, and then I will not ask anymore.”
“The tragic scene of the air crash is conceivable. Why did Pei Yuan accompany the old man instead of the two sons?” Tang Xi questioned.
“Second uncle was hospitalized with pneumonia. Third uncle had a traffic accident and broke his left leg.” Pei Qingzhi’s tone was somewhat ironic.
“…” Tang Xi twitched the corners of her mouth, “What a coincidence?”
“Yes, it’s such a coincidence.” Pei Qingzhi said calmly.
“I see.” Tang Xi nodded.
Without words all the way, the car drove to the Century Hotel.
The Chinese style of Pei’s old house is not suitable for Christmas balls, and this time it is a commercial event organized in the name of the company, so the venue is also chosen as the largest hotel in Jiangnan City.
There was a red carpet at the gate and reporters on both sides, but the flash never stopped.
When Pei Qingzhi’s car stopped, a sharp-eyed reporter had noticed it, and suddenly all kinds of long and short shots were facing this side.
It is mad in the circle that Mr. Pei invited his female companion to the dance party, instead of taking the cousin as he did before, and all curiously wanted to see what kind of woman could be favored by Mr. Pei.
Pei Qingzhi got out of the car, walked around to the other side, opened the door very gently, and stretched out his right arm.
Tang Xi threw the cashmere coat onto the car and got out of the car holding his arm, while throwing a heat-preserving charm on each of them.
Just kidding, the ladies who just walked past the red carpet are just relying on the dim light to not see the goose bumps on their skin. In winter, they only wear a short-sleeved skirt outdoors. Is this a human officer? Some also have their backs and legs… If you don’t have a cold or catch a cold, you should worry about arthritis! Fortunately, she chose a long skirt that mopped the floor specially.
She walked across the red carpet with her head upright, the constant sound of shutters and flashing lights on both sides made her a little irritable, but she was not stage fright on the aura.
Grandma Zhao is indeed very eye-sighted. Originally, she would look a little bit young in white when she was old, but the glamorous black completely set off her temperament. Even if she walked beside Pei Qingzhi, she would not be regarded as an accessory.
Xia Qing, who had just signed her name on the signature board, looked back and couldn’t help but sigh when she saw this scene.
There has never been a girl who can stand beside Pei Qingzhi without being overwhelmed by the limelight, but these two people walked step by step but they complemented each other perfectly.
“Manager Xia.” Pei Qing said hello.
“President Pei, Miss Tang, it’s been a long time.” Xia Shuang took his wife’s hand and nodded and smiled, but Xia Shuang didn’t come.
The four of them walked into the hall together, and there was a rush of heating.
Mrs. Xia breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled embarrassedly at Tang Xi.
Tang Xi smiled back, and his eyes quickly swept across the hall.
Father Pei rarely wore a black suit, and was talking and laughing with several old friends who were about the same age. On the other side, she saw Jiang Xia and his female companion Jiang Xiaoli.
Fu Xiao and Li Qingxue were together, and when they saw them, their expressions seemed to change a little.
“Qingzhi, why did you come so late?” Pei Yuan, who had returned to Jiangnan City, walked up cursively, his tone of voice listening to care is actually accusing him, and there is a middle-aged man behind him, but a high-definition suit can hardly hold him up. Standing next to the radiant Pei Yuan was like a follower.
“Aunt, uncle.” Pei Qing said calmly, “This is Tang Xi.”
Tang Xi smiled slightly.
Pei Yuan touched a soft nail, brows fiercely, her fingers squeezed the champagne glass tightly.
After Pei Qingzhi said hello, he walked past Tang Xi with no one else, and walked towards Father Pei.
Pei Yuan bit her lip, and suddenly, a low voice came from behind: “You know who Tang Xi is, if she intervened, back then…”
“Shut up!” Pei Yuan turned her head back viciously and glared at his brother.
“Ayuan…” □ □ a little at a loss.
“One by one is useless!” Pei Yuan let out a low curse, stepping on high heels and walking to the side.
