Chapter: 4

Tian Jingzhi was taken aback, and hurriedly explained, "Hey, do you think I'm playing a prank? I'm so wronged, I'm the top three in the whole grade in the elementary school's ideological and moral class!"

But the head nurse didn't believe it at all, she just smiled and told her to sleep well, and she didn't forget to turn off the light for her before going out.

How did that happen? Why can't they hear the heartbeat? Tian Jingzhi was very confused and couldn't fall asleep, so he simply sat on the bed and looked at the moon in a daze.

... Is it really an illusion?

On the roof opposite the inpatient department, Xue Lingqiao stood there looking at Tian Jingzhi who was making a fuss, with an imperceptible smile flashing across his mouth.

Lying in the museum for a hundred years, just a hundred years, the world has turned him into a complete stranger. Changing signal lights and congested motorcades, high-rise buildings and reflective glass curtain walls, electronic devices in everyone's hands and ubiquitous electronic eyes, everything is strange and mysterious.

The changes in the past hundred years have far exceeded the previous four hundred years. If he wants to live in peace, he must adapt as soon as possible. What's more, he still wants to find his enemy, the bastard who drained his blood.

So Xue Lingqiao has been soaking in the library for a month when she came back to life. The only thing that troubles him is that there are always female students secretly taking pictures of him with their mobile phones. Female students in this era have become very different from a hundred years ago.

A few days ago, Xue Lingqiao saw an auction news from an old newspaper. The item being auctioned was the phoenix jade bib left by his mother. That was his most important thing. I don't know how he got transferred to the auction company in the past hundred years. Xue Lingqiao took out the gold bars that had been stored in a secret place many years ago, and went to the auction company after realizing it.

"That's right, it's the Phoenix Jade Bi auctioned by our company a few years ago. It was handed down by the client's ancestors. It's very well preserved, and its color and carving are top-notch, so I'm very impressed. But, I'm sorry, Mr. Xue, we It is a regular auction company, and has signed a non-disclosure agreement with the consignor and the buyer, and their information cannot be disclosed." The senior manager of the auction company asked Xue Lingqiao, with a stylized smile on his face.

"I don't need their information, I just buy it back."

"The transaction price of this collection was 120 million at that time. Not only was the price sky-high, but the collector was not necessarily willing to part with it. Some collectors I know have very good Qing Dynasty jadeite in their hands, and the price is not high. So high, but there is a lot of room for appreciation..."

"Just this one, nothing else." Xue Lingqiao interrupted his sales pitch.

Manager Gao was taken aback, and hesitated for a while: "I would like to ask, why does Mr. Xue want this collection?"

"Because... it's something from my ancestors."

Manager Gao suddenly realized, nodded and said: "Okay, leave your contact information, and I will help you contact the collector as soon as possible."

When Xue Lingqiao walked out of the auction company, it was raining heavily outside. He heard a distant heartbeat amidst the pattering rain. Xue Lingqiao didn't know if being alive this time was a blessing or a curse, he didn't care, but the unlucky Miss Tian who saved him was really an uncertain risk factor.

When he came to the hospital, he stood in front of Tian Jingzhi's bed just now not to scare her, but to confirm something. But I didn't expect such a big commotion, and Miss Tian obviously suffered from insomnia because of it.

Tian Jingzhi, who was insomnia, pretended to have a bad appetite in front of the head nurse during the day, and didn't take a few sips of the soup sent by his mother, so he soon felt the protest from his stomach. The more he thought about it, the hungrier he became, and he was about to be discharged from the hospital. Tian Jingzhi urgently needed dessert to heal his wounded soul, and this dessert was the momo cheesecake from the French restaurant in the city center.

There were otaku fans squatting in the hospital lobby, and they couldn't force their way in. Tian Jingzhi decided to climb over the wall through the back door.

"momo cheesecake, here I come!" After exercising his muscles and bones, Tian Jingzhi made a starting posture and rushed to the fence. Immediately afterwards, there was a scream of "ah", and Tian Jingzhi "disappeared" from the grass .

Before hitting the wall, she was "cut off" by the sewer.

"Who is so wicked to lift the lid of the sewer!" Tian Jingzhi stood in the sewer, suddenly became angry, tried to jump a few times but couldn't reach the edge, and turned around in a hurry. "It's really you who fell into the sewer in order to steal food...Okay, calm down...it's not the first time anyway, think about how it got out of the sewer before..."

Xue Lingqiao jumped up and down on the roof of the hospital. She wanted to leave, but suddenly felt a sharp change in her heartbeat. Following his feeling, he landed steadily at the mouth of the sewer.

Plop, plop, plop.
