Why are you trying to steal her destiny? She's the little ancestor of the Xuanmen sect!

Late at night.

Ye Chen's phone rang while he was working in his study.

He frowned slightly, showing no intention of stopping the international conference.

Assistant Kuang picked up his phone: "Mr. Ye, it's your call."

"No."

After speaking, Ye Chen prepared to continue his meeting.

The phone rang for a while before stopping.

Just as Assistant Kuang was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the ringtone sounded again, threatening to restart the meeting.

Ye Chen frowned, radiating a cold aura: "What's going on?"

His voice was cold, as if he was about to throw the phone away at any moment.

This was a multinational conference that he had taken time out of his busy schedule to hold, and it was interrupted again and again.

"It's your personal cell phone, Mr. Ye."

Assistant Kuang picked up his phone, and this time, after glancing at the screen, his expression changed immediately: "President Ye, it was Miss Jiu who called you."

The air seemed to freeze for a moment, but the next second, Ye Chen was no longer cold and hard.

He stood up somewhat awkwardly, picked up his phone, coughed twice, and tried to relax his tone before answering the call: "Xiao Jiu, why are you calling me?"

This effortless transition left the foreign executives on the other end of the meeting, who had been trembling at the sight of Ye Chen's impatient expression, exchanging bewildered glances.

Even though Mr. Ye left the camera's view, they could still hear his voice. This is just too surreal!

Assistant Kuang smiled slightly, pursing her lips.

On the other end of the phone, Xiao Jiu Jiu's lively voice rang out: "Brother Ye, guess where I am right now?"

"Brother Ye is so silly, he can't guess where Xiao Jiu is." Ye Chen chuckled, as if he could see Xiao Jiu's lively and clever appearance even through the phone.

Xiao Jiu Jiu smiled and said, "Brother Ye is lying!"

"How did I lie?" Ye Chen smiled as he walked out with his phone in his hand.

With a soft snort, Xiao Jiujiu asked, "If you weren't lying, why would you have bid on that jade pendant for me?"

"What jade pendant?" Ye Chen was slightly taken aback, but didn't say much.

Xiao Jiujiu: "You still want to lie to me? You bought it. You had someone give me that jade pendant. There's no need to pretend anymore."

Thank you, Brother Ye, for spending so much money.

"How did you know? I didn't go." Ye Chen sighed and slowly left the room, heading to the terrace.

Inside the room, Assistant Kuang said with practiced ease, "I will chair the meeting from now on, starting with..."

Over there on the phone.

Xiao Jiujiu muttered to herself, "You had someone deliver it over. The smell on that person is the same smell as the one you're around."

"What is the taste?"

Ye Chen's expression immediately turned serious.

His bodyguards are not allowed to wear perfume, including his assistant, Kuang, who also doesn't wear perfume except on necessary occasions.

Xiao Jiujiu said mysteriously, "The taste of the soul is hard for me to explain to you~"

"so……"

Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief and smiled helplessly: "Xiao Jiu, I had that jade pendant bought because I saw you liked it. I'm giving it to you."

"I know, thank you, Brother Ye. This jade pendant is indeed very beautiful, but..." Xiao Jiu Jiu hesitated for a moment, wondering whether she should tell Ye Chen about it.

After all, the jade pendant is now completely dust-free.

Ye Chen pressed further, "Just what? Are you embarrassed? No need, it's just a jade pendant."

"There was a little dragon inside the jade pendant. It destroyed the pendant, leaving not a trace. I want to buy a piece of cloth from you, preferably waterproof and fireproof." Xiao Jiujiu made the key point clear.

Originally, I wanted to find my uncle or father.

But after thinking it over, I still think it's more appropriate to ask Ye Chen.

Because Ye Chen knew his grandfather's identity, he understood her actions.

Ye Chen smiled slightly.

He appreciated it, as Xiao Jiujiu always thought of him first when she needed something.

But what little dragon?

"Xiao Jiu, what is Xiao Long? Did the jade pendant break by accident? It's okay, the jade pendant was originally a gift for you, so don't worry about it too much."

In Ye Chen's understanding, it was either that Xiao Jiu broke the jade pendant or something.

This was just a trinket to him, insignificant.

He lost over ten million in an instant without even blinking.

Xiao Jiu Jiu didn't explain much: "I'll tell you the specifics later. I want that piece of cloth to make a soul-nourishing banner."

"Soul-Nourishing Banner? Whose soul does it nourish? Have you found Master Liu?" Ye Chen asked a few more questions, still somewhat uneasy.

In her eyes, Xiao Jiu was still a child after all. She would ask him a few more questions if he were harmed by an evil spirit.

When Grandpa was mentioned, Xiao Jiu Jiu sighed: "No, it's not Grandpa. Grandpa is gone. That was used to keep the little dragon."

"Little Dragon, how little?" Ye Chen simply didn't believe that dragons existed in this world.

Just treat it as a substitute.

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Jiu Jiu decided to tell Ye Chen: "It's about Xiao Long. It's in the jade pendant you gave me. Now that the jade pendant is gone, I need to find a new place for it."

“Okay, I’ll help you find the fabric.” Ye Chen agreed readily.

Xiao Jiu Jiu sensed something was off about the tone: "Brother Ye, do you have no idea what I'm talking about?"

"Meow~"

It's normal that he doesn't understand; after all, dragons are things that have disappeared from history, and people nowadays just treat them as legendary creatures and don't take them too seriously.

Little Nine-Nine: ...

"Xiao Jiu, no matter what you do, I will stand by your side."

Ye Chen didn't understand the dragon Xiao Jiu was talking about, but he knew about the Soul-Nourishing Banner: "I will find you the best fabric."

Xiao Jiu was a little helpless, but still smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Ye."

"You're welcome."

Ye Chen smiled.

Finally, Xiao Jiu still felt she needed to make things clear: "Are you free tomorrow, Brother Ye? I want to talk to you about this properly."

"for……"

Ao Che was about to speak when Coal Ball glared at him, and he shut up completely.

For no other reason than that they dared not offend Coal Ball.

"Are you free tomorrow? Does Xiao Jiu want to see me?" Ye Chen's smile deepened.

Xiao Jiu Jiu nodded: "Yes, I want to see you, Brother Ye. You should be in G City, right?"

"Of course, I have a project to investigate, that's why I'm here." Ye Chen smiled slightly.

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Jiujiu said, "Then let's find a place to meet, and I'll have my uncle take me there."

"Aren't you going to tell your father?" Ye Chen asked back.

Little Jiu Jiu scratched her head: "Dad won't stop me."

"Okay, I'll arrange it. I'll send myself to you tomorrow." Ye Chen's face was full of smiles.

I can see Xiao Jiu again.

He'll take a picture and send it to his grandfather, just to make his grandfather a little jealous.

After the two made their agreement, Xiao Jiu Jiu hung up the phone.

Ye Chen returned to his study in a very pleasant mood.

He went to the computer and winked at Assistant Kuang.

Assistant Kuang immediately said, "The meeting will be paused for two minutes."

He turned off his microphone and stood up: "Mr. Ye, what are your instructions?"

"Go find a restaurant suitable for children. I'm having dinner with Xiao Jiu tomorrow. Also, please prepare a set of clothes for me," Ye Chen instructed.

Assistant Kuang was his personal assistant, and he handled most of the basic tasks for him.

This person studied and worked with him; the two have known each other for over ten years and have a very good relationship.

With a light laugh, Assistant Kuang said, "Alright, then you'd better not wear a suit tomorrow. It's too formal, and Miss Jiu doesn't like it."

"Go away..." Ye Chen gently kicked him.

Assistant Kuang slumped onto the sofa: "Murder, definitely murder. I won't be able to get up without a million."

Ye Chen took out his phone.

"100,000 yuan has been deposited into my Alipay account."

"Can you get things done?" Ye Chen asked Assistant Kuang with a smile.

Assistant Kuang jumped up: "I feel like I'm still nimble and can work for another hundred years. I guarantee I'll complete the mission!"

With that, Assistant Kuang left, beaming with satisfaction.

He wasn't short of money; he just enjoyed the feeling of squeezing money out of Ye Chen.

Over there, Ye Chen returned to his desk and turned on his microphone: "Where were we? Let's continue."

The higher-ups didn't dare utter a word, and no one dared to ask any questions; the meeting continued.

*

Early the next morning.

Xiao Jiu Jiu got dressed neatly.

These clothes were all brought by Ye Xuan; fortunately, there were some everyday clothes among them.

"Xiao Jiu, why are you wearing such ordinary clothes? Auntie brought you a lot of gorgeous little dresses, they're so pretty."

Ye Xuan looked at Xiao Jiu Jiu with some regret.

She brought a lot of dresses, wanting to make Xiao Jiu look like a beautiful doll.

Xiao Jiu Jiu chuckled, "This dress is also very pretty, thank you Aunt Ye."

"You're welcome, Xiao Jiu, um..." Ye Xuan looked at Xiao Jiu Jiu, hesitant to speak.

Qin Yuyang, who was sitting at the dining table, also pricked up his ears and secretly looked over.

The meaning is obvious.

"Are you also asking for divination today?" Xiao Jiujiu raised an eyebrow.

Divination no longer has any effect on her.

Now, every time the couple goes out, they want to consult Xiao Jiu for divination; they feel uneasy if they don't.

Ye Xuan nodded.

Qin Yuyang didn't speak, but his gaze was fixed on this direction.

"Hey, you two want Xiao Jiu to serve you first thing in the morning? What kind of parents are you?" Qin Yuhai said, coming downstairs with dissatisfaction.

Ye Xuan smiled awkwardly: "I just feel like I've gotten used to it."

"You're used to it, but Xiao Jiu isn't," Qin Yuhai said, speaking up for Xiao Jiu.

Xiao Jiu Jiu tugged at his sleeve and said with a smile, "It's alright, Uncle. Business is booming early in the morning."

"You, is it okay if it affects your health?" Qin Yuhai asked in a low voice, still worried.

Xiao Jiujiu patted him on the shoulder: "Of course it doesn't have any impact. If it did, I wouldn't have done it. It's just about making a little money."

"That's good." Qin Yuhai nodded in relief.

Pulling three copper coins out of her pocket, Xiao Jiujiu looked at Qin Yuyang and Ye Xuan: "Which of you two wants to go first?"

"I'll go first, I'm in a hurry to get out."

Seeing this, Qin Yuyang immediately got up and went to Xiao Jiu Jiu's side, sitting on the sofa: "I'll go first."

"Old rules."

Xiao Jiu Jiu looked at Qin Yu Yang as if he were a money-giving boy.

Qin Yuyang was completely unaware and directly made money for Xiao Jiu.

"Go ahead and throw it away." Xiao Jiujiu handed the copper coin to Qin Yuyang.

Holding the copper coin in his palms, Qin Yuyang shook it and then tossed it onto the table.

Xiao Jiu Jiu placed her hand on the copper coins, swiping the three coins toward her side. After just one glance, Xiao Jiu Jiu's expression turned serious.

She looked up at Qin Yuyang, then at the copper coins: "No, this isn't right, how could this be?"

"what happened?"

Seeing Xiao Jiu Jiu's serious expression, the three adults couldn't help but look over.

Xiao Jiu Jiu reached out and touched Qin Yu Yang's face directly: "Is everything alright? How could this happen?"

"Xiao Jiu, what's wrong? Don't scare me." Qin Yuyang looked at Xiao Jiu with a serious expression, but he was already a little scared.

He used to not believe in ghosts and gods and wasn't afraid of them, but now that he's seen everything, he's become somewhat afraid.

Xiao Jiujiu frowned: "Don't bother me, there must be something wrong. Did you do anything wrong yesterday?"

"No, yesterday's itinerary was very simple, and I didn't encounter any strange people." Qin Yuyang was startled by Xiao Jiu's reaction and quickly tried to recall.

You blockhead, think quickly!

Ye Xuan, who was standing next to her, also thought back: "Nothing unusual has happened. Is there a problem?"

"Hard to say."

Xiao Jiujiu's expression was solemn.

She saw an omen of impending death in Qin Yuyang's divination.

But his facial features showed no indication of this.

This is not right.

If the hexagram and the face do not match, there must be a problem.

"Dad, I want to see."

Qin Yuyang immediately understood.

She exchanged a glance with Qin Yuhai and prepared to take Xiao Jiu Jiu to the study.

Ye Xuan was left below, completely bewildered: "Hey, what are you guys doing?"

"You can stay downstairs and catch them, or go out and find someone to play with, it's up to you," Qin Yuyang instructed before entering his study.

Ye Xuan downstairs murmured, "That won't do. We can't just go out without consulting Xiao Jiu first."

She took out her phone and contacted the wealthy ladies she had arranged to meet earlier.

"Oh dear, my husband Qin has something to do today, so I won't be able to go. Have fun, you guys!"

"It's alright, I'll treat you to afternoon tea as an apology."

"That's too kind of you, I'm so sorry."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'll hang up now."

Ye Xuan breathed a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.

These wives are not easy to deal with.

Fortunately, she had already made a name for herself in G City and was able to handle them with ease.

If these were the wives in the capital, they would be much harder to deal with.

Thinking about it, Xiao Jiujiu looked up at the upstairs.

I don't know what happened to make Xiao Jiu so nervous.

"Mommy."

Qin Xin came downstairs and looked at Ye Xuan with a puzzled expression: "Mommy, didn't you say you were going to take me out to play cards today?"

"I'm not going out for now. Xiao Jiu is too busy to see me today, and I'm a little anxious. I'd better stay home." Ye Xuan touched her chest and sat back down at the dining table.

Qin Xin nodded: "Okay then, can I watch TV at home today?"

"Sure, do whatever you want." Ye Xuan waved her hand.

"Great!"

Qin Xin was excitedly preparing to leave when Ye Xuan said, "By the way, eat your breakfast first before you go play."

"Okay."

Qin Xin obediently went to the restaurant to eat.

Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then went to the living room, turned on the TV, and said to the housekeeper beside her, "Have someone come to my home to do my nails."

"Okay ma'am."

The housekeeper took care of it efficiently.

upstairs.

Xiao Jiu Jiu sat in the study, noticing that Qin Yu Yang's expression wasn't too good: "Dad, throw it again first."

She threw three copper coins in front of Qin Yuyang.

Qin Yuyang picked it up, shook it, and tossed it onto the table.

The copper coins were scattered.

Xiao Jiu Jiu moved them in front of her, counted them on her fingers, and then sighed, "I still have to look at them."

"After you read this, you'll have to stay with me."

Qin Yuyang looked at the divination chart on the table: "What does this divination chart mean?"

"Yes, Xiao Jiu, what can't you say?" Qin Yuhai asked, puzzled.

Xiao Jiujiu didn't know how to explain it.

Her gaze towards Qin Yuyang was firm: "Dad, sit down."

"Okay." Qin Yuyang sat down and looked at Xiao Jiujiu.

Xiao Jiu Jiu sat on the coffee table opposite him, "Stretch out your hand."

Qin Yuyang obediently extended his hand.

Xiao Jiu Jiu reached out and grasped it, then closed her eyes.

Not long after.

Xiao Jiu suddenly opened her eyes.

Those jet-black eyes turned gold at that moment...
