After a five-hour drive, the four of them arrived in front of their house in the countryside.

Chu Zhongren was worried that Wang Yunshi would dislike this shabby little house, but unexpectedly, she walked straight in and behaved as calmly as if she was entering and leaving a five-star hotel.

Li Fengxia has been in the hospital for two or three years, and she has accumulated a lot of daily necessities and changes of clothes. The entire trunk of Wang Yunshi's car was filled to the brim. It took several people to sort out all the luggage for a while.

In the room, Chu Fengping wiped the sweat from his forehead and suddenly realized that now was a great time to pry into the family secrets.

Well, Chu Zhongren was so busy that he had no time to notice his actions.

If you take the opportunity to go to the study and dig out the family tree...

Chu Fengping swallowed, glanced at Chu Zhongren quietly, and then tiptoed into the back room.

"Why not? I clearly remember that it was placed here." Chu Fengping crouched in the corner secretly, rummaging through a wooden box with a thick layer of dust. He became more and more anxious as he rummaged through it, but he could only hold back his silence.

He moved lightly to avoid making any noise that would alarm Chu Zhongren, "No way, could it be this?"

Chu Fengping's eyes finally locked on a dirty blue booklet.

The corners of his mouth twitched.

I thought that the genealogy was a hardcover book anyway, but I didn’t expect...

No matter, let’s read it first and then talk about it.

Opening the first page of the family tree like a thief, Chu Fengping couldn't wait to read it. However, the first name that caught his eye was that of his great-grandfather Chu Aohan.

Chu Fengping was stunned again - this genealogy is dirty and broken. It seems to be at least several hundred years old. How come it starts with great-great-grandfather? Where are the previous ancestors?

He carefully looked at the cracks in the family tree, and his frown deepened.

It was obvious that someone had torn out the first few pages on purpose.

Who is it? Father?

Why tear it off!

If Chu Zhongren's cover-up only made Chu Fengping slightly suspicious, then the missing half of the family tree completely aroused Chu Fengping's curiosity.

Does his family have any hidden secrets?

Just as he was thinking about it, a vaguely familiar aura spread out. Chu Fengping keenly captured the mysterious power floating in the air. His eyes narrowed. He had no time to think about why this elusive aura appeared here and quickly concentrated.

Feelings seek their source.

The smell came from the wooden box containing the family tree!

His pupils suddenly tightened, and Chu Fengping stretched out his hand to reach deep into the wooden box.

The things in the box were so miscellaneous that he fumbled for a long time before he found the jade bracelet that exuded a mysterious aura. The bracelet was pure white, thick and warm in color. It felt cool in the palm of his hand, but it was not bone-chilling. On the contrary, it made people feel cold.

Produce a peaceful and peaceful state of mind.

The Object Appraisal Eye quickly entered the information about the white jade bracelet into Chu Fengping's mind, but for some unknown reason, it was limited to the year of manufacture.

"A bracelet from the Qing Dynasty?"

Chu Fengping put it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully.

It's indeed worth a lot of money, but other than that, it doesn't seem to be anything special.

"Fengping? Fengping! You brat, where did you go? If you don't help pack your luggage, why are you running into the house alone?" Chu Zhongren's displeased voice came from outside the door. Chu Fengping was shocked and felt guilty.

, subconsciously stuffed the family tree and bracelet into his coat pocket, and concealed it: "Oh...I, I just went to the toilet!"

He returned to the living room and met Chu Zhongren's reproachful eyes.

Wang Yunshi and Li Fengxia were sitting at the table chatting, and they seemed to like each other very well. Chu Zhongren took Chu Fengping's arm and pulled him aside. He lowered his voice and muttered: "What's the matter with you? You're usually lazy.

Forget it, you have to seize the opportunity to express yourself in front of Yun Shi!"

"dad……"

How can they explain it so that they can believe that he and Wang Yunshi are really just ordinary friends?

"Dad, I just broke up with Li Renyu not long ago, and I won't enter a new relationship for the time being." Thinking of the scene where they reunited at the treasure appraisal conference not long ago, Chu Fengping felt extremely complicated, and he changed the subject without leaving any trace, "Dad, we

Where did that white jade bracelet come from, and why have I never heard you mention it before?"

What puzzles Chu Fengping the most is that this thing can obviously be sold for tens of thousands of yuan, so why didn't Chu Zhongren take out the white jade bracelet when his mother was seriously ill and needed surgery money?

According to Chu Zhongren's character that values ​​love and justice, Li Fengxia's life should not be ignored.

Unless, the meaning behind the bracelet is extremely important!

"What white jade bracelet?" Chu Zhongren's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes began to dodge, as if he had done something wrong, "Why didn't I know we still have jade bracelets at home?"

I have to say that Chu Zhongren, who has been honest all his life, is not good at lying at all.

Chu Fengping saw through him at a glance, pursed his lips, and said helplessly: "Dad, just tell me. Also, why have the first few pages of our family tree disappeared inexplicably?"

Anyway, even if Chu Zhongren doesn't tell, he still has plenty of ways to dig out the truth.

"You!" Chu Zhongren's eyes widened, and he opened and closed his lips. He repeated this several times, and finally condensed all the unsaid words into a sigh, "Hey... I can't hide it after all! Feng Ping

, you listen to dad, now is not the time for you to interfere in the family’s past, just don’t worry about anything, study hard, work hard, I will find an opportunity to tell you everything in the future."

It seemed that the Chu family did have secrets that he didn't know about.

Chu Fengping looked at his father's troubled expression, nodded, and did not continue to ask.

He believed that Chu Zhongren must have his own reasons for choosing to conceal it. As a junior, Chu Fengping did not intend to disobey his elders.

…

After settling down Chu Zhongren and Li Fengxia, Chu Fengping, Wang Yunshi and others embarked on their return journey to City A.

For some unknown reason, Wang Yunshi still chose the way she came just now.

"It's no longer the rush hour for commuting, why do we have to take a long detour?" Chu Fengping sat in the passenger seat and asked doubtfully, "Aren't you afraid of meeting punks again?"

Last time, if he hadn't happened to be by their side, Wang Yunshi and Wang Wenwen would have fallen into a trap.

"It's okay." Wang Yunshi answered coldly, with a hint of chilling in her words, "If we encounter him, I'll take him back for questioning."

And this was one of the reasons why she chose to take a detour home through a suburban road.

After being almost defiled by a mad dog last time, Wang Yunshi had sent people to investigate the matter thoroughly. Although she had not yet figured out the ins and outs behind it, based on the existing information, she could conclude that the housekeeper Wang Yi was not able to escape the involvement in any case.
