"Xiaowan, are you okay?" Chi Xiaomin asked softly, "When the red candle appears, you will feel uncomfortable. Your current physical condition is not ideal. My brother can't let you in, so let's forget it."
"I just want to take a look." Chi Xiaowan smiled softly and looked at her brother without telling her true words. She had to rely on Hongzhu to return to the illusion. She wanted to know Cong Yi'er
She believed that everything Cong Yi'er did could bring Sima happiness.
Chi Xiaomin hesitated, nodded, and took Chi Xiaowan to the place where the red candle was stored. Seeing the red candle, Chi Xiaowan's heart beat rapidly. Inside the glass cover, the red candle gave off a fascinating sound.
Glossy, red and charming.
"Xiaowan," Ouyang Qing was lowering his head to sort things. Hearing the footsteps behind him, he looked up and saw Chi Xiaomin and Chi Xiaowan. He immediately came up to him with a smile, "Why do you have time to come here today? How do you look on your face?
Not so good. Are you feeling uncomfortable? Come on, sit down first. I'm sorting things out.
West, Dad said, he was going to announce the red candles. He was worried that it would not be safe for the pair of red candles to be left here. There were always some strangers wandering around in the past two days, and Dad was worried that some cultural relic dealers would be watching.
This pair of red candles is absolutely priceless in the cultural relics market."
"Can you open it?" Chi Xiaowan suddenly said softly, "I'm very curious about everything here now and want to know what happened here. Only Red Candle can help me go back to that time and feel what happened at that time. Is that okay?
?”
"No." Chi Xiaomin said immediately, "Absolutely not. Your current body is really not suitable for doing this kind of thing. We have plenty of time. You have to take good care of your body before we come back."
"It won't hurt me. Really, I can recover in a short time." Chi Xiaowan said seriously. She knew nothing about Cong Yi'er. She just wanted to know some details about Cong Yi'er now.
She can let her convey to Sima that as long as he is happy, everything will be fine.
"I said no, I just can't." Chi Xiaomin said angrily. This girl, ever since she decided to marry Sima, has become a little strange. Is her enthusiasm for this place because of Sima, who has something to do with this place?
A man who is inextricably linked.
"Xiao Min, why are you so loud to Xiao Wan?" Ouyang Qing said softly, "Xiao Wan just wants to help you. Don't you always hope that Xiao Wan can come back here as soon as possible and help you solve many mysteries?
Group?"
Chi Xiaomin ignored Ouyang Qing and pulled Chi Xiaowan out. Chi Xiaowan struggled subconsciously and pulled her hand away from her brother's hand.
Suddenly, there was a vibration, and the glass cover protecting the red candle suddenly shook and cracked with a bang, as if coming from a strange external force. The red candle appeared in front of everyone completely uncovered, and Ouyang Qing jumped back in fright.
In front of Chi Xiaowan, Professor Ouyang hurried in from outside and asked loudly, "What happened?!"
Chi Xiaomin looked at Chi Xiaowan in surprise. How could this girl, who looked so pale and weak, have so much strength to pull her hand away from her hand and push him away easily, "Little girl?"
Late, are you okay?"
Ouyang Qing looked back at his father, "It's okay, it's just that the glass cover protecting the red candle suddenly shattered, as if it was impacted by some external force. It seems that there shouldn't be such an external force here, probably - Dad,
Is it best for us to hand over the red candle to the government for safekeeping as soon as possible? It is really a time bomb here."
Chi Xiaowan stared blankly at the red candle in front of her. The beautiful color made her dizzy.
A strange voice sounded in her ears, and a strange smell came from the red candle. In the air, the red candle escaped from the sealed glass cover, and under the hot light, a faint aroma suddenly appeared.
, made Chi Xiaowan a little greedy, this fragrance made her forget herself.
"Is this okay?" A voice, a woman's voice, asked hesitantly.
"Of course." An old voice said firmly, "I will never allow them to get together again. I just want them to forget each other and never think of each other again. Even Yixuan will hate her, even if she is
They--give the worst possible scenario, he won't accept her!"
"You hate Cong Yi'er, which may be acceptable, but the emperor is your son, why do you hate him so much!" There was doubt in the woman's voice.
"Just because I am his father, I will not harm him. I am not allowing him to indulge in love. Cong Yi'er makes me feel uneasy. She does not belong to our Daxing Dynasty!" The old voice said in an unacceptable tone.
He said doubtfully, "This Daxing Dynasty will never tolerate her!"
"Xiaowan, what's wrong with you?" Chi Xiaomin looked at Chi Xiaowan's increasingly pale face, and pushed Chi Xiaowan worriedly. He felt that Xiaowan's reaction was a bit strange this time, and he was very worried. "We are.
Leave, it's a little strange here, I feel a little dizzy, Ouyang Qing, turn off the light quickly, is the light too strong, causing the red candle to emit some smell when it is heated? "
Chi Xiaowan looked at her brother in confusion. She couldn't quite understand the conversation, and besides the sound, she didn't see anyone or anything.
After turning off the lights, the group of people retreated and stood a few meters away from the red candle. They waited for a while until the smell slowly dissipated. Several people felt a headache at the same time and looked at each other. Chi Xiaomin frowned and said softly.
: "Is Xiaowan's hallucination related to the smell emitted by this red candle? I just smelled a very strange aroma. It was very light. It made me dizzy and uncomfortable, as if I was drunk.
It’s the same. Professor Ouyang, should we ask an expert to come over and test whether the smell of red candles has a control effect on people’s nerves?”
Ouyang Ruixiang had a cold today and his nose was uncomfortable, so he couldn't smell it. He shook his head and said, "Maybe, I haven't been feeling well these two days, so I can't smell it. But since you said so, we really can't smell it."
Come and take a look personally."
Chi Xiaowan stared at Hongzhu blankly, thinking that no matter what, she wanted to know everything about Cong Yier. "Brother, I want to see that painting."
"Forget it for today," Chi Xiaomin said immediately. He knew his sister very well. Today, her sister's eagerness to enter the old site must have something to do with Sima, whom she was about to marry. "Let's do it another day."
Sima put down the wine glass in his hand, looked back at Gan Nan, and said slowly: "How is she?"
"Now she is at the old address," Gan Nan said softly. "She seemed a little drunk when she went downstairs. In the elevator, it was obvious that she had drunk too much and was in a daze. However, she seemed to have gone to a coffee shop later, and then
I stayed there for about an hour and a half, and then went to the old location. I guess everything was fine. However, Chi Xiaowan’s drinking capacity is really good. I can drink so much and I’m fine. I’m quite surprised. That kind of wine itself has quite a lot of stamina. She
It’s okay?”
Sima nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Go and prepare some gifts. I will go to Chi's house to visit her parents in the evening."
"Yes." Gan Nan agreed and came out, seeing Xiao Yi hurriedly walking over from a distance.
"Gan Nan, is the master here?"
"Here, are you okay?" Gan Nan smiled and said, "Hurry up and prepare for the wedding. We are marrying three daughters when we go out together. The wedding banquet should be different."
"It's Chi Xiaomin, Chi Xiaowan's brother. He said that he wanted to see Sima. He was worried about his sister and said that Xiaowan was very unusual today, so he wanted to talk to the master." Xiaoyi said softly.
"Arrange for him to wait for me on the seventh floor." Sima walked out and said calmly.
On the seventh floor, Chi Xiaomin was sitting, waiting for Sima to appear. He was really worried about his sister's condition. Her sister's anxious request for him to intervene in the excavation of the old site was definitely not for archeology, so there must be something on her mind that she was hiding from everyone.
"What do you want to drink?" A steady voice sounded behind Chi Xiaomin's head.
Chi Xiaomin turned around and saw Sima, holding a glass of wine and looking at him quietly. "No, thank you. There is tea here, which is good. Do you have time? I have something to say to you."
"What about Xiaowan?" Sima sat down across from him and looked at Chi Xiaomin, "You seem to be very worried."
"Well, I saw my sister at the old site today. She gave me a strange feeling. She was so eager to know what happened in the old site, and even offered to go see the red candle and the beauty painting. This is not a small thing.
With Wan's consistent personality, there must be some reason why she is so eager, and this reason must be related to you." Chi Xiaomin looked at Sima, "Xiaowan is a good girl, but my mother does not approve of you being together. Mom is a
From someone who has been there, what she said makes sense. She said that you are too good a person and may not really be nice to Xiao Wan. However, I can see that Xiao Wan really likes you this time. Since you want
If you marry her, promise me to treat her well. She said that you actually have a deceased lover in your heart, and she would rather marry you. This makes me feel bad, Sima, I don’t know why you want to marry Xiaowan, she is like this
An ordinary woman, from birth to now, is like a person who waits silently and never makes any noise. In fact, she is not suitable for someone who is too dazzling and outstanding like you. Sima, will you treat Xiaowan well?"
Sima looked at Chi Xiaomin calmly and said calmly: "I can't guarantee that. I told your sister that I will marry her just because she is very similar to the wife I have left. In fact, she doesn't need to marry. If you
If she is willing to give up, I can terminate the marriage at any time."
Chi Xiaomin looked at Sima in surprise and said nothing for a long time. Then he stood up and looked at Sima. He wanted to say something, but he hesitated for a long time and did not say a word.
"Sorry, I don't want to deceive you. It's true that Xiaowan likes me very much. However, I have told her that in my heart, she is just a substitute for Yi'er. This cannot be changed. However, her appearance really makes me
My heart beats not because of her beauty, but because of the similarity between her and Yi'er. Since I agreed to marry her, for Yi'er's sake, I won't be harsh on her. However, the love between the two of us is absolute.
It won't exist." Sima said indifferently.
Chi Xiaomin felt uncomfortable, poor little sister.
Facing her brother's question, Xiao Wan remained silent and sat on the bed, lowering her head and saying nothing. After a long time, she slowly said: "Brother, I know you love me, but if I can't
I would be even more sad if I married him. I know that he only loves Yi'er, but I love him. Even if I am just Yi'er's substitute, I am still happy, at least he is by my side."
"Xiao Wan, you are not worth it." Chi Xiaomin sighed, "Mom is right. In fact, Ouyang Qing is more suitable for you than Sima Lai. Let's forget it. I think Sima will not embarrass him.
Yours, because you are similar to his beloved woman, I won’t make things difficult for you. You and Sima can break up and live a good life married to Ouyang Qing."
"Brother, I am like a moth. Even if I die in the fire, I will not choose to stay outside the light." Chi Xiaowan looked at her brother and shed tears, "Brother, I really love him."
