C208 The Betrothal Gift Is Missing
"Hehe, then I'll go with Chengshan to take a look at the betrothal gift." Lin Hongyan pulled Han Chengshan, ignoring the crowd's attention, the two of them quickly left the banquet and walked towards the ancestral residence.
Lin Hongyan couldn't wait to see the bridal gift Ding Yi sent over. She suddenly felt that Ding Yi was a good son-in-law. He also gave them a bridal gift, and today he gave them such a lot of face.
In contrast to Lin Hongyan, Han Chengshan had some doubts in his heart. Especially when he thought of how Ding Yi had been so submissive for such a long time and suddenly became like this, not only knowing a lot of important figures, but also casually attacking three billion people, Han Chengshan could not help but feel a thump in his heart when he thought of their attitude towards Ding Yi.
What if Ding Yi went back to look for trouble with them? Han Chengshan followed Lin Hongyan into the ancestral residence in fear.
On the other side, Han Zhou'er's expression changed when she saw Lin Hongyan and Han Chengshan enter the ancestral residence. She seemed to have thought of something and fell down onto a chair.
"Thank you all for coming to my grandfather's birthday feast. Let me toast everyone." Ding Yi raised his glass and signaled to the crowd.
This action of his caused many people who were originally in a bad mood to find their way to the bottom of the stairs. One by one, they all dared not to fight Ding Yi to the death.
Seeing this scene, Lee Haimin and Wei Jianguo couldn't help but nod their heads. Ding Yi had used the perfect cup of wine to settle grudges. Not only had he gained face for themselves, he had not offended anyone.
Seeing Ding Yi return to his seat, Han Feirong was still a little shocked. She rolled her eyes at Ding Yi and pinched him hard on the back of his waist. She chided him, "Who the hell are you to keep your identity hidden from me?"
"You still don't know who my wife is?" Ding Yi coughed dryly, then leaned beside Han Feirong's ear and whispered, "I'm just an ordinary person. It's just that my parents left me some assets in the past."
"Really?" Han Feirong was stunned for a moment, as if she couldn't believe it.
How much property did it take to sell it for three billion? But when she thought of Ding Yi's words, Han Feirong felt that this was indeed the best explanation. Otherwise, how could Ding Yi suddenly get rich after being poor for so long?
Han Feirong never thought that perhaps Ding Yi really had that much money. At least, she had kept it a secret for a long time. In her opinion, Ding Yi's past humiliation wasn't something that could be done through patience.
Thinking of this, a trace of guilt arose in Han Feirong's heart.
"Not much, almost enough." However, before Han Feirong could continue, Ding Yi's words almost made her lose control over her chopsticks.
The corner of Han Feirong's mouth twitched. She looked at Ding Yi and asked, "Not much, but you still spend 3 billion on a painting. Don't you know to keep some money?" Do you know that we will have... Having a child will cost a lot of money, and you should also think of something for Xiao Xue! "
Han Feirong's face turned slightly red as she spoke up to this point. Inwardly, she felt extremely ashamed. Why would she say such words!?
"Cough cough, my wife, what did you say?" Ding Yi cleared his throat with a shy face and asked knowingly.
"Mud!" Han Feirong rolled her eyes at Ding Yi's teasing.
"Heh heh." Ding Yi scratched his head, but a hint of bitterness flashed in the corner of his eyes.
Even though Ding Yi had lived for thousands of years and had countless identities, and had many children who were related to him in name, in reality, Ding Yi did not have any real heirs.
All of this was because after he had consumed the immortal pellet that day, in order to slow down the aging process of his physical body, Ding Yi had cultivated like a madman. Even though it was only a short hundred years, he was still unable to slow down the decay process of his physical body.
Furthermore, ever since he had reached the Earth Immortal Stage Realm, he had discovered a terrifying side effect. It was similar to other strong practitioners, where the stronger he was, the harder it was for him to have a son, and Ding Yi was the same.
Over the past thousands of years, Ding Yi had met a partner that he found good at first sight. Even after hundreds of years of company, he still wasn't able to keep a girl and a child.
Thinking of this, Ding Yi's thoughts started to fluctuate. Some of the imprints in his mind started to loosen. Sensing that the imprints had loosened, Ding Yi immediately took a deep breath to stabilize his mind.
"What's the matter with you?" Seeing Ding Yi's abnormality, Han Feirong frowned.
Ding Yi came back to his senses. His face was a bit pale. He shook his head, indicating that he was fine.
At this moment, Jin Siqi, who had been sitting quietly at the side, suddenly opened her mouth and said, "Mr. Ding, my grandpa asked me to tell you something."
"Hmm?" Hearing Jin Siqi's words, Ding Yi turned around.
Jin Wudao had her bring him a message? Why didn't he call himself? What was going on?
All of a sudden, Ding Yi thought of a lot of things.2
"My grandpa said to be careful, and said … He has discovered some secrets which he is powerless to deal with. " Jin Siqi looked at the people around her and said in a low voice.
These words were not a secret. Even if others heard it, they would not know what it meant. Even Jin Siqi herself did not understand what Jin Wudao meant.
Jin Siqi had also asked before, but she did not get the desired answer. On the contrary, she got scolded by Jin Wudao and was told not to think about things that she should not have known.
Ding Yi was the only one with a change in expression after hearing that.
Hearing Jin Siqi's words, Ding Yi's heart skipped a beat and he unconsciously frowned. Although it was just a short sentence, it was enough to surprise Ding Yi!
Jin Wudao was now the hegemon of Jiangnan and was honored as Souther Emperor. What had happened to him that made him say he was powerless?
"Alright, I understand." Ding Yi nodded and didn't say anything else.
Soon after, he acted as if he didn't hear Jin Siqi's words. He suppressed his thoughts, and a smile appeared on his face once more as he started toasting the others.
Seeing Ding Yi like this, Jin Siqi couldn't help but frown, feeling indignant in her heart.
Although she didn't understand what her grandfather meant, she understood the literal meaning behind being powerless. He must have met with some trouble, yet Ding Yi ignored it and ignored it. It was all in vain for her to think so highly of him!
Just as Jin Siqi was feeling indignant in her heart, a sharp scream suddenly came from inside the ancestral residence. Soon after, Lin Hongyan and Han Chengshan hurriedly ran out.
"Who took my bridal gift!" Lin Hongyan's shrill voice was heard even before he left the room.
As Lin Hongyan's voice rang out, all the guests at the banquet were stunned. Their gazes gathered on Lin Hongyan, causing her to instantly feel pressured and aware of her loss of control.
"What's going on?" Han Zongkun stood up and asked with a frown, "What's the matter with you being so flustered and flustered? "Slow down."
