Chapter 411: Discovering Stolen Goods

Chapter 411: Discovery of Stolen Goods

Irene's smile brought back memories to Xi Yeming, and his eyes towards the girl showed a bit more kindness.

"I used to have a younger sister. If she were still alive, she would definitely be about your age."

"Oh, that's a coincidence," Irene showed a look of shock, then changed to an excited tone and shouted, "Then I think Desire's sister will definitely be proud of you!"

“Will you be proud of me…?”

Xi Yeming shifted his gaze to the sky outside the window, and all the beautiful memories of the past flashed before his eyes like a shadow.

Irene suddenly remembered something and reached into the wooden box on the table next to her: "Oh, by the way, I have something to give to you, Saint Will of Desire."

"give it to me?"

Xi Yeming, who never liked others giving him gifts, was curiously waiting to see what Irene would take out.

After some searching, Irene took out a folding fan from the wooden box.

"A fan? A normal one?"

When Xi Yeming saw the fan in the wooden box, he thought it was some kind of magical weapon, but the detection of magic power told him that it was just an ordinary folding fan.

"It is indeed just an ordinary folding fan, but I think it has more meaning in the hands of the Holy Will of Desire."

"What is the origin of this folding fan...?"

"This is the fan that my brother used to use, right?"

The thunderous answer froze Xi Yeming's mind, and he quickly recovered from the pause.

"Mr. White's fan...?"

Without even thinking about it, Xi Yeming took the folding fan directly, opened it, and carefully examined the pattern and structure on it.

"How is it? Is it to your liking?"

"Yeah, that's good," Xi Yeming wiped away the joy on his face, "It's a pity that I can't accept it."

Irene was shocked. "Why can't I take it?"

"I accepted your gift today. Doesn't that mean everyone can give me gifts to ask for benefits from now on?"

As his power grew, Xi Yeming did not want to cause unnecessary trouble. Although he wanted to keep his teacher's relics, it was also important to leave a clear way out.

"Who said this is a gift? I have never said the word 'give' so far," Irene gave Xi Yeming an unexpected correction, "Does the Holy Will of Desire think that I am using my brother's relics to please you?"

Xi Yeming, who was standing in place as punishment, hadn't uttered a word yet, but his look of "Isn't it?" had already expressed his meaning.

Irene stamped her feet anxiously, her face flushed red. "Of course not! You and my brother have a master-disciple relationship. This fan with you can give my brother some spiritual sustenance. I just think it's more appropriate to keep it with you than with me."

Xi Yeming was touched when he heard this. He looked at the folding fan in his hand and seemed to see the gentle face of Teacher White. He remembered the teachings and encouragements that Teacher White had given him. How could such friendship be compared with bribery?

"Forget it, if that's the case, then I'll accept it." Xi Yeming said slowly, with a little more tenderness in his eyes.

Irene, who immediately showed a bright smile on her face, said: "Great! Holy Will of Desire, I hope this fan can bring you good luck."

Xi Yeming gently opened the folding fan, and the pattern on the fan swayed slowly in the breeze. He folded the folding fan and solemnly put it in his arms.

From then on, this folding fan was not only a relic of Teacher White, but also a testimony to the deep friendship between them.

He swung his folding fan and took a step forward, raised the open fan to strike a pose, and then quickly put it back.

"Then let's say goodbye today. I will come to discuss the site and materials another day."

"Well, it's not easy for you to come here across the ocean. Let's settle down first and then have a good talk."

After sending the Klinka family away, Angelina moved quietly and silently to Xi Yeming's ear.

"Yingyu reported the matter to the higher authorities. What will you do?"

"Stand still like a mountain and wait for change."

"Aren't you worried that winning over so many forces will anger the emperor?"

"Huh?" Xi Yeming glanced at the confused Angelina. "If the emperor dares to hit me, I will fight back. I don't think generals like Wang Zhixuan and Huang Yijie can stop me."

Xi Yeming was so arrogant that he had never been there even when fighting against the enemy, but he was the most tough towards his biological father.

But Angelina doesn't like to see the fight between father and son, so it's better to avoid fighting.

On the way back, the two never mentioned this topic again.

-

When they returned to the mansion, it was just past noon. Fumina and Selonia, who had nothing to do, sat in the hall waiting for them.

Angelina confided, "It feels like I haven't had this much free time in a while."

"That seems to be the case. Wait?" Xi Yeming noticed that something was wrong. "Selonia, how long have you not practiced the piano? Aren't you going to participate in the Divine Comedy Competition?"

Speaking of this, Xi Yeming remembered that he had forgotten about the Divine Comedy Stage and had forgotten all about the fighting and killing.

“Ahhh, I…” Celonia raised her hands excitedly, hesitating for a long time and almost unable to speak clearly, “The competition on the Divine Comedy stage has been postponed, so there is no need to practice so urgently.”

"Huh? I don't think I've talked about this before. How did you know?" Angelina felt a subtle suspicion.

"Ah, this..."

"Oh, Little Nia and I just happened to hear someone mention it on the road," Fumina stepped forward to help Seronya out, "Sister Angel, Lord Shengyi, you guys are so nervous that you might scare Little Nia."

Fumina was about to reach out to grab Xi Yeming and lead him to another place, but instead Xi Yeming grabbed her wrist.

"Fumina, I've never seen this bracelet on your right hand before. Where did it come from?"

"what……?"

Fumina didn't expect Xi Yeming to have such a sharp eye that he even noticed the tiny details.

Angelina followed her intuition and noticed something strange. "There's one on Seronia's wrist, too."

"I say, you two better explain yourself to me," Xi Yeming said in a more serious tone, "The Water God asked me to keep an eye on you to see if you steal anything again. Tell me where the bracelet came from."

For a moment, Fumina's brain was in a mess and she was helpless like a child who was caught for doing something wrong. Her pupils trembled slightly and it seemed that her whole body was about to fall apart.

"Wait, these two bracelets were not stolen by Femina," Seronia said, seeing that the truth would eventually come out, "someone else gave them to us."

Xi Yeming first exchanged a glance with Selonia, then looked at Fumina whose teeth were chattering, and he sighed, letting go of her.

"This bracelet is not cheap. Who gave it to you?"

"Yes Yes……"

Celonia had no choice but to talk about an incident that happened before.
