The boss is back and she doesn’t pretend to be a fake daughter anymore

While the housekeeper was preparing for midnight snacks, Chu Beihe went back to his room and changed into home clothes.

It's a different feeling than the casual clothes I wore when I had dinner last time.

Jiang Xuxu couldn't help but take another look.

Well, just one glance.

The two of them finished two portions of dumplings quietly, facing each other.

After putting things away, Jiang Xuxu remembered another thing.

"You said you had something for me before? What was it?"

When Chu Beihe heard that she still remembered this, his black eyes moved slightly, and he simply took her to the study. Then, he took out a black drop-shaped pendant that looked like an ore from the drawer in the study.

It is obviously a black shell, but it seems to be transparent crystal inside, and there seems to be something vaguely flowing.

Jiang Xuxu couldn't tell what kind of stone it was made of, but the pure aura that filled it immediately attracted her attention.

"This is a pendant I bought from the auction. It is said to be the latest discovered ore, which is very rare. The person who owns this pendant can have the right to name this type of ore."

Chu Beihe said, placing the water drop pendant directly into Jiang Xuxu's palm,

"Now, the right to name it is up to you."

The moment the pendant reached his hand, Jiang Xuxu was stunned.

Not only because of the significance of Chu Beihe's pendant, but also because the moment the pendant landed in her palm, the pure spiritual energy on the pendant seemed to penetrate into her palm little by little, and then slowly merged with her own spiritual power. .

Even Jiang Xuxu was startled by the obvious feeling in his body.

This pendant can actually replenish spiritual energy?

Lingshi?

"You gave me to me, but it's special?"

Jiang Xuxu still couldn't help but test, "Can you feel the aura on this pendant?"

"Aura?"

Chu Beihe's tone was calm and he asked her, "Is it the kind of aura that you said before, that is radiating around me?"

With the poor visibility of Jiang Xuxu's expression on Chu Beihe, she couldn't tell whether he was lying or not. She could only judge from his tone that he probably didn't really understand this.

But Jiang Xuxu still told him directly about the aura and suspicion he felt from the pendant.

Because if this pendant is really so special, its value must be immeasurable. She must at least tell him the value of this thing, and then decide whether to give it to her with his knowledge.

Although she often secretly drew golden light from Chu Beihe's body to rub the spiritual energy, she did so to ensure that no loss would be caused to him.

Jiang Xuxu thought carefully, but Chu Beihe didn't seem to care. After hearing what she said about "value", he only said,

"The first time I saw this pendant, I thought it was very special. Since it may help you replenish your spiritual power, then I did not give the wrong gift."

Jiang Xuxu didn't expect that he didn't care at all. Her heart moved slightly, but she couldn't help but ask him,

"But why do you suddenly want to give me a gift?"

The nine-tail brooch before could barely be said to be a matriculation gift for her, so what was it this time?

Then she saw Chu Beihe's dark eyes looking at her steadily and said,

"Next month, I will be away from Haishi for a while, and I may not be able to come back in time."

He paused and said,

"Consider this an early birthday gift to you."

Jiang Xuxu was reminded by him that it was indeed his birthday next month.

But how did Chu Beihe know about this?

Such doubts just flashed through her mind, and she quickly found the answer.

There's probably nothing the boss wants to know that he can't know.

What's more, he has Jiang Huai.

Jiang Xuxu felt a little warm in her heart. She held the pendant in her palm and felt another subtle emotion surge in her heart.

It was different from that time when she unilaterally decided to take responsibility for him in the restaurant after he blocked the fire thunder for her.

This time, she "wanted" to be responsible for him even more.

No matter what kind of existence he is.

"Chu Beihe, would you like to..."

In the middle of Jiang Xuxu's words, suddenly, as if she sensed something, her expression suddenly froze.

Before she could finish her last words with Chu Beihe, she simply took out a piece of talisman paper and recited the talisman quickly,

"The spirit of this world, please quickly listen to my call and come!"

Following her order, Chu Beihe saw a burst of spiritual light coming from the magic talisman in her hand, and the next second, a soul shadow suddenly fell from the void.

But it was He Yuanying who was sent by Jiang Xuxu to follow Zhou Yaya first.

What is surprising is that the soul body of He Yuanying in front of him is visibly weak, and there is a trace of black mist wrapped around the soul body.

Jiang Xuxu's eyes darkened, and the palm of his hand condensed into a blade with spiritual power, and he slashed at the mist without saying a word.

The entangled mist broke off and quickly dissipated into the air.

Seeing this, Jiang Xuxu hurriedly looked at He Yuanying on the ground.

He Yuanying's soul was damaged, and he looked at her miserably now, and the next second, he cried.

"Xuxu, I almost died."

"Don't talk nonsense, you are already dead."

Jiang Xuxu carefully corrected her statement.

"My soul is almost gone."

He Yuanying took advantage of the situation to change his words, but did not forget about business.

"You are right. There is indeed a powerful evil master behind that Zhou Yaya. I was accidentally discovered by him, and he even sent a ball of black mist to hit me..."

He Yuanying was actually not very panicked when he was first discovered.

She thought that she was a hundred-year-old ghost after all, and she had practiced some ghost skills seriously with Jiang Xuxu. Not to mention beating people away, she would definitely have no problem escaping.

Who would have thought that there was a strange black mist surrounding that guy.

She almost said it was there.

"Okay, I'll get you a Yin Gathering Talisman to nourish your soul first, and I'll deal with the evil master later."

"You have to help me take revenge." He Yuanying said.

"Report."

Jiang Xuxu responded repeatedly, took out another magic talisman, asked her to go inside, and took her home first.

As a result, He Yuanying didn't move for a long time and still looked at her pitifully.

"Seeing as I've been hurt so badly for you, can I make one more request?"

"What?" Jiang Xuxu asked.

He Yuanying glanced secretly at Chu Beihe next to him, and then said eagerly,

"I want to stay here to nourish my soul~"

Jiang Xuxu:...

It can be seen that the injury is not serious.

……

the other side.

The white-haired old man looked at the big ghost who suddenly disappeared in front of him, with a gloomy expression on his face, "He is actually a contracted ghost servant."

Zhou Yaya walked out from the side. She couldn't see any big ghost, so she just subconsciously asked the old man,

"Mr. Shen, will something happen?"

"A mere brat can't affect our affairs."

The old man named Mr. Shen looked at Zhou Yaya and asked, "Did you get everything?"

Zhou Yaya nodded when he heard this, and took out two transparent glass vials from his bag. One bottle contained a few drops of blood, and the other contained a few hairs.

"I just got this from Jiang Cheng. Now, I can start the life-changing technique."
