Chapter 1176: Bait
After Qiao Kexin returned to Longjiang, she had not been to Xinyue Clothing.
Because all the work of Xinyue Clothing is on the right track, with Shen Qian and Hao Meili watching over the company, and the Long Wuhui protecting it, there is almost no need for her as the president to worry.
Now she just needs to stay in the ancestral home of the Qiao family and wait for her marriage.
I had been looking forward to my wedding with Lin Hao before, but seeing the wedding getting closer, I felt inexplicably nervous.
Thinking of what happened in recent months, thinking of the enemy threatening Lin Hao time and time again with her and Yueyue's lives.
Qiao Kexin felt that she had become a burden to Lin Hao.
Lin Hao is the president of the Dragon Martial Arts Association and the heir to the Martial God family. In Qiao Kexin's heart, he is the proud man of heaven and earth.
Qiao Kexin did not want to become a burden to Lin Hao.
She often thought that if she had practiced martial arts since she was a child, and if she was also a strong martial artist, she would not be a drag on Lin Hao.
Not only will it not hinder Lin Hao, but it can also become Lin Hao's helper.
But is it possible?
Last time in the Wushen Family, the strong men from the Tianyin Sect suddenly broke into the villa. Qiao Kexin and Yueyue hid in the mezzanine of the basement, but they were discovered by the other party.
Xie Jinghong asked about the whereabouts of the "Demon Suppressing Stone". How did Qiao Kexin know about it?
Later, Lin Wei and Lin Gai arrived, and Xie Jinghong threatened the lives of Qiao Kexin and Yueyue, forcing them to hand over the "Demon Suppressing Stone".
This can't help but make Qiao Kexin curious, what exactly is a "demon-suppressing stone"?
She suddenly thought of the stone left by Lin Hao five years ago and she kept it for five years. Later, Lin Hao said that the stone was an ominous object and placed it in the basement of Yuhuatai Villa.
Thinking of this, Qiao Kexin immediately left the Qiao family's ancestral home and took a car to Yuhuatai.
Now Qiao Kexin is always protected by strong men from the Dragon Martial Arts Society. Liu Yi is mainly responsible for Yueyue's safety. Bu Zongming and Yu Qisong follow Qiao Kexin at all times.
Hong Tao is no longer Qiao Kexin's full-time driver. He was transferred to Xinyue Clothing and became the supervisor of a small department. After work, he lives a happy life without shame with his nurse girlfriend Zhang Lan.
The person responsible for driving Qiao Kexin now is Chen Gang, who has reached the realm of martial arts master.
After arriving at Yuhuatai Villa, Qiao Kexin took out the key and opened the door of the villa, and was surprised to see Aunt Zhao mopping the floor inside.
"Aunt Zhao, why are you here?"
Aunt Zhao was also surprised when she saw Qiao Kexin. She quickly stood up straight and said respectfully:
"Madam, you are back. I am cleaning. I will finish cleaning soon."
Qiao Kexin asked: "Aunt Zhao, we haven't come back to live during this time, are you coming to clean too?"
Aunt Zhao smiled and said: "Anyway, Momo lives in school, and I have nothing else to do alone, so I come here to clean it every day. Besides, I also received Mr. Lin's salary for a year, so I should take good care of this villa. , so that it can be kept clean and ready for you and Mr. Lin to come back at any time."
Qiao Kexin walked up to Aunt Zhao, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "That's it! We may never come back to live here again. After a while, I will find a way to rent it out or sell it. Aunt Zhao, you will There’s no need to come over to clean it again.”
Hearing Qiao Kexin say this, Aunt Zhao's expression suddenly became depressed and she sighed softly.
"Okay then, I'll pay you back the rest of your salary right away..."
Qiao Kexin took Aunt Zhao's hand and said in a gentle voice: "We just don't come to live in Yuhuatai anymore. We didn't say we would expel you. When I get back, I will tell my mother that I will let you work in the Qiao family's ancestral home. My mother will definitely
Will agree."
Aunt Zhao said excitedly: "Really? Thank you so much."
At this time, Bu Zongming and Yu Qisong had already checked inside and outside the villa. After confirming that there was no danger, the two of them stood guard outside the villa.
Qiao Kexin chatted with Aunt Zhao for a while, and then walked into the basement alone.
She remembered that Lin Hao once said that he put the stone in the basement, but after searching for a long time, he could not find the stone.
Then I suddenly thought that there was a hidden compartment on the wall cabinet, so I removed the debris on the wall cabinet and opened the partition outside the hidden compartment.
Because the partition was a bit tight, Qiao Kexin used a little force, but accidentally pricked her finger on the wooden thorn on the board.
Fortunately, the wound was not big and it was not painful. It was just like being pricked by a needle. Qiao Kexin didn't care.
After completely taking down the partition, Qiao Kexin saw the stones in the hidden compartment.
"Is this the 'Demon Suppressing Stone'?"
Qiao Kexin muttered to herself, and carefully took the stone out of the hidden compartment. She did not notice at all the place where her finger was pricked, and a small drop of blood came out and stained the surface of the stone.
The original dull lines on the stone gradually turned into dark red.
Qiao Kexin's mind also became trance-like at this moment, as if she had traveled to another world.
The sky was filled with wind, sand and smoke, and there were dim shadows everywhere.
It was hazy under my feet, like clouds or fog, it was so gray that I couldn't see anything clearly.
Something could be heard faintly roaring. Looking for the sound, I saw a figure as big as a mountain, and its whole body was shrouded in evil aura.
Qiao Kexin had never seen such a monster before, and was immediately frightened to the point of retreating, and her hands couldn't help but loosen.
Then I heard a "bang"!
The stone fell to the ground, Qiao Kexin's mind returned to clarity, and she returned to reality, back to the basement of Yuhuatai Villa.
What happened just now?
Why do hallucinations occur?
Could it be because of this stone?
I have touched this stone before, but I have never had such a reaction as now, and I have not found anything special about it.
What's going on today?
Is this stone really an ominous object?
Qiao Kexin hesitated for a while and picked up the stone again. The hallucination just now did not appear again.
But Qiao Kexin felt strange, as if some memory had entered her mind, and she could see more clearly. In the basement, she could still hear the wind outside the villa.
This left Qiao Kexin a little confused, unable to tell whether this was another hallucination.
She put the stones back into the secret compartment, reinstalled the partitions, and then left the basement.
He took out his cell phone and prepared to make a call, wanting to tell Lin Hao everything that had just happened.
But thinking that Lin Hao had already arrived in the Sissa Wolf Country at this time, he would probably have a lot of things to do, so Qiao Kexin put away the phone again.
