Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After the busy day ended, Tang Li returned to the bedroom. After showering, she lay on the bed and suddenly recalled something. “Qi Yihan wasn’t here tonight, was he?”

After saying that, she closed her eyes and pondered for a moment before muttering, “It seems like he is quite busy at home, but whatever.”

After saying that, she opened her eyes. Feeling that she had nothing to do, she took out her phone and opened it.

Much to her surprise, today, two of her uncles called again.

Other than calls, there were also messages.

The message was from her Second Uncle, who wanted her to call him back.

Tang Li thought that since she had nothing to do, she would call him back.

When Second Uncle picked up the call, he asked, “Li, your First Uncle and I called you a few times today. Why didn’t you answer?”

He sounded like he was complaining.

Tang Li looked at the ceiling and said calmly, “I didn’t bring my phone with me this morning.”

When Second Uncle heard this excuse, he was silent for a few seconds. He didn’t fuss over it but started talking about serious matters. “Recently, your First Uncle and I have our eyes on a piece of land. We received insider news that that piece of land will be planned as an international airport soon. We want to stock it up directly. When the time comes, we will definitely make a fortune.”

Tang Li was a little surprised that he would tell her this. She said, “First Uncle and Second Uncle can decide on this matter. Why are you telling me?”

She was sure that these two uncles had never talked to her about work before.

Second Uncle immediately dispelled her confusion. “Didn’t I tell you before that we don’t have much capital at our disposal lately and will need to use yours and your father’s shares? So if we were going to buy this piece of land, we would need to use your and father’s shares.”

Tang Li thought to herself, “I see.” Although the way she earned money was different from the way they earned money, she still asked, “How much does that piece of land cost?”

“200 million.”

Tang Li took out the Copper Bell and played with it while thinking about how much land she could buy with 200 million. The island that she coveted was 17 to 18 square kilometers (1 square kilometer was equal to 1500 acres), but it only cost 200 million.

The land that her First Uncle and Second Uncle wanted might not even be 1500 acres, but it actually cost 200 million.

“How expensive.”

“It’s not expensive. That piece of land is at the border between Province L and Province Y. The location is very good. When the time comes, the two provinces will jointly build an international large airport. According to the estimates of professionals, we will earn at least three or four times that amount.”

Second Uncle started telling Tang Li about how good the geographical location of that piece of land was and how much they would profit from it. He also said that that piece of land was the Tang family’s chance to make a comeback. As long as they could seal the deal, the Tang family would definitely return to its former glory when Tang Li’s grandfather was still alive. When the Tang family became powerful, Tang Li would have more confidence in her in-laws.

While Second Uncle was talking, Tang Li took the time to foresee whether that piece of land was good or not. Only then did she know that that piece of land was the land of the extreme yin. Whoever touched it would be unlucky.

She decided to remind him since he was the Host’s uncle, “Second Uncle, since that piece of land is so good, there will definitely be many corporations competing for it. Do you think Tang Corps has the ability to compete with them? Say we eventually get that piece of land, don’t you think it’s a scheme?”

Second Uncle was certain that Tang Li was unwilling to take out the money. After a few seconds of silence, he sighed and said, “Alright, I’ll discuss it with your First Uncle.”

With that, the two of them hung up.

Second Uncle hung up the phone and shook his head at First Uncle, who was sitting beside him, with a complicated expression. “As you said, Xiao Li is indeed wary of us now.”

“I think she’s not wary of us but wants to squander her father’s money.”

“There’s nothing we can do if she doesn’t agree or sign.”

“Who said there’s no other way? We can borrow their shares for the time being. That piece of land will definitely earn several times more by then. After we earn money, we’ll just make up for it. That way, even if we don’t tell her, she won’t know.”

“What if she asks us to give her money back one day?”

“We can make up some excuses to put it off. She doesn’t even know how to manage the assets after all. As her uncles, we need to help her manage the money.”

“Alright, we’ll go and talk about the land agreement with them tomorrow .”

…

Tang Li fell asleep after hanging up.

The next morning, when she went downstairs, she saw Qi Yihan standing in the courtyard again.

“Morning, Yihan.”

Qi Yihan’s back was facing her, but when he heard her greeting, he turned to look at her.

This morning, Tang Li was wearing blue and white sportswear. Her hair was combed into a bun, and her style of dressing was different from before. She was simply beautiful, dazzling, and youthful.

Qi Yihan suddenly narrowed his eyes, looking at her.

At that moment, Tang Li had already walked up to him. She raised her head to look at him and asked, “You came over so early today. Did you find another herb?”

“No.” Qi Yihan stared at Tang Li and frowned. “I didn’t come over last night. I happened to have time this morning, so I wanted to hear about Father’s condition yesterday.”

Tang Li nodded. “Alright, I’ll tell you.”

“Wait.” Qi Yihan looked at her clothes. “Apparently, you were planning to go for a walk. I want to walk too, so let’s talk as we walk.”

Tang Li did not object.

The two of them walked out of the gate.

Looking at the two of them walking out together, Butler Zhang, who had not appeared all this while, walked out from the side. He had mixed feelings, but at the same time, he felt indescribably gratified.

…

After Tang Li and Qi Yihan walked out, she told him about the old man’s condition yesterday and the laboratory.

Qi Yihan listened attentively. After Tang Li finished speaking, he asked, “Can you really cure father’s illness after I find all the herbs?”

“That’s right. Didn’t I promise you before?” Tang Li said, “If you don’t believe me, then get your men to get the herbs back. I’ll be able to cure my father’s illness as soon as possible.”

Qi Yihan was silent for a few seconds before suddenly asking, “Tang Li, you have special abilities, right?”

Tang Li was stunned and tilted her head to look at him.

Qi Yihan had his usual cold expression on his face. He didn’t look at her but looked ahead. “Father’s illness can’t be treated as quickly as you said unless you have special abilities.”

At this point, he tilted his head to look at her with a deep and sharp gaze. “Yesterday, you said that what the Qi family lost might not have been taken away by something invisible. The greatest possibility is that it was done by someone. Tell me, how did you know this?”

Tang Li stopped and looked at him. Their eyes met. Tang Li smiled at him. “I can read fortunes.”

Qi Yihan frowned.. That was not the answer he wanted to hear.
