Chapter 209 Return to Ruins
That evening, when Chen Wenjin and Huo Ling Axiang returned, they saw Yang Xueli sitting in the living room drinking tea and reading.
The two women actually knew in advance that Yang Xueli and Cheng Feng had returned from abroad, so they were not entirely unprepared for this situation.
Ah Xiang was a little excited and ran over to Yang Xueli's arms.
"Sister Yang!"
The two women were very happy to see each other again. After asking each other about their recent situations, Yang Xueli looked at Chen Wenjin and Huo Ling.
"Miss Yang, I didn't expect we'd meet again so soon!"
Chen Wenjin smiled and extended his hand to Yang Xueli.
"Just call me Sherry. We're practically family, so there's no need to be so formal."
Yang Xueli held Chen Wenjin's hand and said frankly.
Chen Wenjin chuckled and nodded in agreement.
The four then sat down together, and the two women began to talk to Yang Xueli about Cheng Feng's trip abroad.
Yang Xueli brought up the matter of Cheng Feng robbing the museum with the two women.
She deliberately avoided the wedding during this time, as she didn't want to brag about it to the two women.
A while later, Cheng Feng, who was studying the Warring States silk manuscripts in his study, came downstairs and saw the three women chatting animatedly.
Ah Xiang, standing beside her, listened to her three older sisters chatting with a smile on her face.
"What are you talking about?"
Cheng Feng went to the sofa opposite the three women and sat down next to Ah Xiang.
Chen Wenjin rolled her eyes at Cheng Feng.
"We were talking about you watching foreign women at the beach!"
Cheng Feng chuckled lightly without refuting.
I poured myself a cup of tea and drank it quietly.
The three women chatted amongst themselves, jumping from one topic to another.
One minute she's talking about how comprehensive the selection of cosmetics is in the US, and the next she's saying her new house is almost finished being renovated.
We'll let Yang Xueli choose a room she likes then.
It wasn't until after 9 p.m. that Yang Xueli finally said goodbye.
The two women quickly tried to persuade her to stay, but Yang Xueli still refused.
After several attempts to pull at each other, the two women had no choice but to give up.
Finally, he didn't forget to have Cheng Feng drive Yang Xueli to the hospital.
After Cheng Feng and Yang Xueli left,
Chen Wenjin watched the car leave the yard and softly said to Huo Ling:
"This Miss Yang has already shown us goodwill; let's get along well from now on."
Huo Ling nodded silently. After just a few hours of conversation,
Her resentment towards Yang Xueli also dissipated considerably.
No matter how well a person pretends on the surface, their true nature will still be revealed in the details.
Huo Ling grew up surrounded by women and has a deeper understanding of women than Cheng Feng, a man.
According to her observation, Yang Xueli was a very good person, with nothing to criticize in terms of her character or behavior.
On the other side, Cheng Feng did not leave after taking Yang Xueli to the house she had previously lived in.
I stayed here with Yang Xueli that night.
The next morning, Cheng Feng brought Yang Xueli to the base that was under construction.
Here we met Chen Wenjin, who had come to supervise the construction.
The three of them then went to take a look at the residential area inside.
Their new home was already taking shape, with their private area enclosed by high brick walls.
The yard alone is the size of a football field, and landscaping has already been designed.
A considerable amount of vegetation suitable for the local climate has already been planted.
The house was a Western-style villa; at that time, houses in China all had a common characteristic.
That means the lighting is poor.
Floor-to-ceiling windows are not yet common in the country.
However, Cheng Feng specially spent a lot of money to install floor-to-ceiling windows on the first and second floors of this villa.
Once the sun rises, the entire room will be bathed in sunlight.
Most importantly, the living room on the first floor is large enough to hold all of Cheng Feng's spoils of war.
"The house renovation will be completed in about two weeks, and then we'll find some time to move in."
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second-floor balcony, Chen Wenjin turned to Cheng Feng and Yang Xueli and said.
Cheng Feng nodded and said:
"Your rooms are all decorated according to your own preferences, but I only have one requirement for my room: the bed has to be big enough!"
Cheng Feng's words drew two eye rolls. They were both seasoned veterans and knew exactly what Cheng Feng meant.
"Sherry, I'll take you to choose a room. Don't pay any attention to this lecher."
After saying that, the two left the balcony hand in hand.
Cheng Feng looked out the floor-to-ceiling window at the distant sky and smiled contentedly.
Over the next few days, Cheng Feng drove his new car back and forth, staying at home for two days and then going to Yang Xueli's place for one day.
Even if he doesn't do anything, he will still switch between the two homes to try to treat them equally.
These past two days, Yang Xueli has also started helping Chen Wenjin with things at the construction site.
The disciples of the Unloading Ridge Sect also knew that their chief had gained another wife.
Time flies like an arrow.
Three weeks later, Cheng Feng, who had just moved to a new house, moved again.
This time I've chosen this place directly, and I'll probably be living here for a long time to come.
This time, Yang Xueli did not postpone it again and officially joined the ranks of those living with Cheng Feng.
This way, Cheng Feng won't have to run back and forth between the two places.
That evening, Cheng Feng and his family of five sat around a table.
There are some documents displayed on it.
"These are the documents Professor Chen mailed over; they contain all the details about the shipwreck."
Yang Xueli pushed the documents in front of Cheng Feng and said.
Cheng Feng picked up the documents and began to look through them. At this moment, Chen Wenjin spoke up:
"Old Cheng, why don't we have Hei Xiazi take a group of brothers and go?"
Putting down the documents in his hand, Cheng Feng shook his head and said:
"No, they can't handle this Coral Spiral area. If I don't go, I'm afraid none of them will come back."
Upon hearing this, Chen Wenjin and Huo Ling frowned.
They were very familiar with the methods of the Unloading Ridge disciples; they had never failed in their tomb raiding missions during this period.
He has never even suffered a serious injury.
Needless to say, Hei Xiazi made a name for himself in the underworld when Chen Wenjin was still just a little kid.
"It's too dangerous, so let's not go. The Qin King's Bone-Illuminating Mirror is precious, but it's not worth risking your life for!"
Huo Ling gently dissuaded him after hearing this.
Cheng Feng held Huo Ling's small hand and comforted her:
"Don't worry, I'm going because I'm confident. That mirror isn't important; what I value is this sea area."
"Sea area?"
The four women looked at each other and asked at the same time.
Cheng Feng couldn't help but smile at their unspoken understanding, and then explained:
"This coral spiral area actually has another name, as recorded in the Liezi: Tang Wen: "
Countless miles east of the Bohai Sea lies a vast chasm, truly a bottomless valley.
Below it is bottomless, and it is called Guixu (Return to the Ruins).
At this moment, all three women thought of the same thing.
That is the ingredient for the elixir of immortality.
Cheng Feng once said that the elixir of immortality requires a medicinal guide of the same level as the fleshy mushroom Tai Sui (Daheitian Thunder Mountain).
If the Coral Spiral area is indeed the legendary Ruins of Return...
That's also the place where you're most likely to find the medicinal ingredient.
"I understand. In that case, I'll send Black Bear over to scout ahead tomorrow."
Help us find a suitable captain and crew!
Chen Wenjin used her dowry with complete confidence.
Huo Ling followed up with:
"I can help you find some information about Guixu."
Groups one and two brought back many ancient books, some of which may contain records about the Guixu (Return to the Void).
Finally, Shirley Yang delivered the final blow:
"I'll take care of all the equipment for going to sea; the equipment on the American side is much more advanced."
They'll have more support when they reach the open sea!
