Chapter 1148

Seeing that Gu Yanqi was already speechless, Ning Chen stopped talking to avoid provoking her too much.

Ning Chen took Gu Yanqi's hand and led her outside.

It had been three or four hours since Xiao Han retrieved the item; everyone had recovered except for Little Qiongqi, who was still fast asleep, while the rest sat in the living room.

Seeing the two leave, Lin Yi whistled: "Oh~ Brother Ning, Sister Yanqi, we still have three single dogs and one single beast here; when showing off your love, remember to consider us!"

Lin Yi's ambiguous gaze swept over the two, his words almost as explicit as a direct hint.

Gu Yanqi's face instantly turned bright red; she understood the meaning in Lin Yi's words but didn't know how to refute them.

Naturally, Ning Chen said nothing; he pulled Gu Yanqi to sit on a single-seater sofa, while Ning Chen himself sat beside Xiao Han, with Lin Yi and Facing Huo Jinglin opposite them.

"How are your two bodies?" Ning Chen looked at the two, whose wrists still bore faint marks of being bound.

"We're fine, just feel like we slept for a long time, though our heads hurt a bit after waking up." Lin Yi touched the back of his head; it felt normal, but his head was slightly buzzing.

"I feel the same as Lin Yi." Facing Huo Jinglin

Hearing this, Gu Yanqi immediately lowered her head guiltily; the headache and dizziness were probably inseparable from her hitting the two of them with a stick.

Ning Chen had been watching everyone's condition and noticed Gu Yanqi's guilt and quick head-lowering immediately.

He curled a barely perceptible smile.

"Hmm, probably you bumped into something somewhere; do you have any other abnormalities?"

The sharp Facing Huo Jinglin immediately sensed something was wrong; he looked at Gu Yanqi, then at Ning Chen, and upon seeing the smile in Ning Chen's eyes, decisively kept the matter to himself.

And the silly Lin Yi was directly distracted by Ning Chen's words.

"Nothing else! But this experience felt too little; I feel like we didn't participate in the main events, which is a real pity."

Lin Yi's face now wore nothing but regret.

Facing Huo Jinglin beside him didn't feel any regret; in fact, he thought they were very lucky.

He figured Brother Ning and the others' experiences couldn't have been any better.

"Speaking of which, what exactly is this thing we went to such great lengths to get?" Lin Yi looked curiously at Xiao Han; he really wanted to know what magical item had trapped them for so long.

Xiao Han went to the passenger seat, took out a box from there, then sat beside Ning Chen, placing the box on the table.

Ning Chen looked over and saw the box emitting a faint glow all over; though weak, it was there.

"Hmm? Could it be just this ordinary box?" Lin Yi looked at Xiao Han in confusion; the box looked very ordinary; would there really be something good inside?

Ning Chen frowned slightly: "An ordinary box? Do you think this box's appearance is ordinary?"

This question left Lin Yi stunned; he looked left and right; no matter how he looked, the box seemed ordinary.

"This, isn't it an ordinary box?" Lin Yi asked Facing Huo Jinglin in doubt.

In Facing Huo Jinglin's eyes, the box had nothing special; he looked at Ning Chen and shook his head: "It's an ordinary box."

Ning Chen looked at Gu Yanqi again; she likewise saw nothing unusual.

It seemed only he could see this glow?

Or perhaps Xiao Han could see it too.

Thinking that Xiao Han had raised no questions, Ning Chen looked over and saw Xiao Han's expression was strange, seeming to hold a sense of incredulity.

"Ning Chen, can you see it?"

Hearing this, Ning Chen understood that this glow was not visible to ordinary people.

"Hmm, if it's that light, I can see it."

"Tsk, really seeing ghosts; I didn't expect you could see it." Upon Xiao Han saying this, Ning Chen knew the other Xiao Han had emerged.

"What's going on!" Lin Yi looked completely confused; what light, what seeing it.

Xiao Han opened the box; the glow inside became stronger, then slowly diminished.

Inside the box was an incomplete mirror; a piece was missing, and the entire mirror emitted a faint white light, looking beautiful.

"This mirror is so beautiful." Gu Yanqi couldn't help but exclaim.

She couldn't see the glow, so she could only see the mirror itself.

The mirror was snow-white like jade, with not a single stain; the white wooden frame of the mirror was carved with various patterns, each exquisitely detailed.

Although a piece was missing, its beauty could not be obscured.

Lin Yi looked at the mirror in Xiao Han's hands with great joy; though he was a man, everyone has an appreciation for beauty.

"Um, Xiao Han, can we take a look at this mirror?" Lin Yi felt his hands itching; he wanted to touch the carved patterns on the mirror's frame himself.

Xiao Han handed the mirror directly to Lin Yi without a moment's hesitation; this actually made Lin Yi dare not take it.

Actually, Xiao Han was so decisive because if someone not recognized by the mirror took it, it would be useless, and besides, the mirror could not be broken no matter how it was thrown.

Lin Yi held the mirror in his hands like a treasure; the moment he took it, he immediately felt a warm current surge through his body, and the tranquility he had felt before returned.
