An Roujin thought that she had patiently waited for five years and even gave birth to a son for Wen Fengmian.
For his family, Wen Fengmian would definitely return to the Ji family. He couldn't possibly live in a small place like Qingshui County for the rest of his life, right?
She couldn't bear to live without electricity and shopping malls.
Of course, after Wen Fengmian gave her the money, she could go to the city next door and live a luxurious life.
However, An Roujin couldn't be satisfied. This was different from her initial goal.
It was only three million yuan. It couldn't be used for a lifetime.
Besides money, power and status were more important.
An Roujin had always been clear about her position. She couldn't do anything. Her only advantage was that she was good-looking and could marry a good man.
She should take advantage of this and rise to the top.
Although many people looked down on her for having such thoughts, so what?
She was still the matriarch of the Lin family now. Many ancient martial artists had to be respectful to her.
This was much better than following Wen Fengmian.
An Roujin really didn't expect to meet Wen Fengmian in the ancient martial arts world.
However, this was something that could be understood.
Since Wen Fengmian returned to the Ji family, he must have regained his status and identity.
It was normal for the Ji Clan's main branch to invite him to participate in the auction.
An Roujin basically lived in the ancient martial arts world. The ancient martial arts world was completely closed off to the outside world.
She occasionally went out to shop and didn't pay attention to any entertainment news online.
Therefore, she didn't know the relationship between Wen Fengmian and Ying Zijin. She only thought that she was his junior.
"Madam Lin." Ji Tianhao's gaze sharpened. This time, he used her surname. "Are you going to interfere with the Ji family's matters?"
The Ji family was part of the Xie family. Although they weren't enemies with the Lin family, they were definitely not allies.
Ji Tianhao also knew that this Madam Lin was an ordinary person.
The head of the Lin family, Lin Jinyun, taught her how to cultivate inner strength. However, she couldn't cultivate it no matter what.
Even if they invited an ancient doctor to set up needles and stimulate her acupuncture points, it was still useless.
Acupuncture was the only way to develop ancient martial arts talent for someone who didn't have it.
Unfortunately, there were very few people who could use it.
There were records in the field of ancient medicine that proved that two to three hundred years ago, ancient doctors were able to refine a type of medicine that could allow people to possess ancient martial arts talent.
But later on, this prescription was lost. Only the ancestors of a few big ancient medical families knew about it.
These old ancestors were not people that Lin Jinyun could invite.
Indeed, if the Lin Clan's Old Ancestor went to invite the Fu Clan's Old Ancestor, they might be able to obtain one for An Rou Jin. After eating it, she would be able to obtain ancient martial arts talent.
However, who in the ancient martial arts world did not know that the reason An Roujin was able to sit in the position of matriarch of the Lin Family was because Lin Qingjia was too outstanding?
The ancestor of the Lin Clan could personally make a trip for Lin Qingjia, but An Rou Jin didn't have that right. At most, she would only be given a pill to prolong her life and retain her youthful appearance. She wouldn't age so quickly.
As long as she was a good vase and didn't do anything to harm the Lin family, she could continue to be the Lin family's matriarch.
However, Lin Jinyun did like An Rou Jin. After all, she was indeed very beautiful.
Ji Tianhao was also one of Lin Qingjia's admirers.
Who wouldn't like a woman like Lin Qingjia, who was skilled in both ancient martial arts and ancient medicine, who was also extremely beautiful?
After Ji Tianhao watched "Youth 202", he felt that Ying Zijin was shockingly beautiful. She was even more beautiful than Lin Qingjia. However, in his heart, he didn't take Ying Zijin seriously.
What they valued the most was still strength.
For a normal person like Ying Zijin, she could only be a vase like An Rou Jin.
Ji Tianhao was indeed tempted. However, An Rou Jin's sudden words made him raise his guard.
The Hall of Justice had been keeping a close eye on the big families recently. Could it be that the Lin Clan wanted to get rid of the Ji Clan and sent An Rou Jin to lower their guard?
"Ah?" Hearing this, An Rou Jin was a bit confused. "Didn't you like her? As a man, you should boldly pursue her. Otherwise, you won't regret it if you miss it. "
As she spoke, she smiled. "I also said this to my son. However, he's still young. He needs to learn more in the future."
Of course, her son wasn't someone with a serious psychological disorder. He wasn't someone who couldn't even speak properly.
She and Lin Jinyun later gave birth to a son called Lin Shao. He was ten years old this year.
What made An Rou Jin very curious was that Lin Shao's ancient martial arts talent was ordinary. It was far inferior to Lin Qingjia's.
If he wasn't a direct descendant, with such poor ancient martial arts talent, he would have been kicked out of the branch family long ago.
However, according to genetics, it was very unscientific.
Lin Jinyun could become the head of the Lin Clan because his ancient martial arts talent was the strongest in his generation.
Why was her son with Lin Jinyun not as talented as Wen Fengmian?
However, when she went back to Qingshui County, Wen Fengmian indeed didn't have any ancient martial arts talent.
It was really strange.
However, An Rou Jin was also glad that Lin Shao wasn't like the young master of the Lin Clan, Jiang Ran, who took his mother's surname. When he was born, his internal energy exploded and he almost lost his life.
"It does make sense." The fear in Ji Tianhao's eyes faded slightly. "Thank you for your advice, Madam. I know what to do."
"I'm not in good health, so I won't stay any longer." An Rou Jin coughed twice. "Your Uncle Lin will be here soon. I have to go back and accompany him."
Ji Tianhao bowed again. "Take care, Madam."
An Rou Jin took a handkerchief and covered half of her face. She walked slowly like a sickly beauty in ancient times.
The corner of her mouth curled into a faint smile.
She didn't need Wen Fengmian now. She had a better husband.
Wen Fengmian insisted on appearing. There was no other way.
**
The auction officially started at seven o 'clock.
However, at half past six, the management of the Hall of Justice still hadn't arrived.
This was also very common. It meant that they weren't ready yet.
Three-quarters of the people on the first floor had arrived. The private rooms were also full.
The auction also prepared good food for the guests. Among them was a dish called Phoenix Fish.
Phoenix Fish had nothing to do with Phoenixes. It was just that the fish's tail looked like a bird's.
After ancient martial artists ate it, it could increase their cultivation. However, they couldn't eat too much. It was easy to get heaty.
Phoenixes were only found in the ancient martial arts world. The Hall of Justice even opened a few large reservoirs to raise Phoenix Fish.
No ancient martial arts family was as arrogant as the Hall of Justice.
Ying Zijin slightly lifted the curtain and looked down. "Looks like the auction will be delayed."
She thought for a moment and stood up. "Dad, you stay here. I'll go out for a while."
Wen Fengmian nodded. "Go. Be careful. Don't worry about Dad."
With Ying Zijin's help, he cultivated the most basic ancient martial arts.
Ying Zijin also helped him raise his ancient martial arts cultivation to ten years through the method of opening acupoints. It was enough to protect himself.
He wouldn't ask why Ying Zijin suddenly knew so many things.
The world was big. There were all kinds of strange things.
He also understood his daughter.
Ying Zijin went to the washroom in the private room and began to change her appearance.
Sometimes, she really liked the ancient martial arts world. It made her feel like she had returned to hundreds of years ago.
Without cameras or advanced technology, it was much more convenient to move around.
Ten minutes later, she left the auction house and went to the place where she and Fu Yunshen agreed to meet.
Yunshan and Yunwu were also there.
All three of them were wearing masks.
The masks were black and outlined with dark golden patterns. They were ancient and elegant.
Fu Yunshen was leaning against the wall. He was originally standing lazily.
When he saw her, he stood up straight and waved his hand. His peach blossom eyes curved. "Yaoyao, come here."
Ying Zijin raised her eyebrows slightly. "I've already changed into this. Can you still recognize me?"
She not only changed her appearance, but also her body shape.
Wen Fengmian didn't recognize her.
"How can I not recognize the person I like?" Fu Yunshen took a mask from Yunshan's hand. He bent down and gently pinched her face. "I can recognize you even if you become a baby."
Ying Zijin glanced at him. "You probably won't have that chance."
Fu Yunshen raised his eyebrows slightly and began to put the mask on her face.
The second before the mask was put on, his eyelashes moved. He tilted his head and kissed her lips.
Although it was a light touch, it was more gentle and strong.
Ying Zijin didn't expect this sudden kiss. She slowly looked up.
"Sorry." Fu Yunshen touched her head and hugged her tightly. He felt the warmth in his arms. "I still couldn't hold back. You can hit me."
Ying Zijin turned her head. "Forget it. I can't bear to."
Yunshan hissed and quickly covered his eyes.
He couldn't bear to look. He really couldn't bear to look.
Yunwu's face was still paralyzed, but her muscles were faintly twitching.
Ying Zijin let him finish hugging her and took a step back. "Sir, we're in broad daylight. Be careful."
"I do need to be careful." Fu Yunshen smiled lazily and raised his chin. "Let's go to the warehouse."
The warehouse was where all the auction items were stored. The Minister of Security of the Hall of Justice kept the keys. There were a total of ten keys.
These ten keys were made of special metal. They all had a lifespan. Each key could only be used five times.
But today, for some reason, three of the keys had cracked even though they hadn't reached their expiration date yet.
This was the first time something like this had happened.
They didn't have spare keys. They couldn't make it in time, so they could only destroy it by force.
The Minister of Security came up and greeted him respectfully. "Sir."
He noticed that there was a girl beside Fu Yunshen. He was a little surprised. "This is?"
Yunshan immediately answered, "This young lady is an ordinary person."
Hearing this, Yunwu couldn't hold back and almost burst into laughter.
The Minister of Security carefully sized up the girl with a doubtful expression. After confirming that she really didn't have any internal strength, he believed Yunshan's words.
The main reason was that Fu Yunshen was strict in the Hall of Justice, and so were his subordinates.
The Minister of Security didn't consider that he would be deceived at all.
Ying Zijin glanced at the metal door. "Do you want to open it?"
"Yes." Fu Yunshen nodded slightly. "Open the mechanism."
The Minister of Security quickly removed the mechanism.
Fu Yunshen stepped forward.
But before he could do anything, Ying Zijin raised her leg and kicked the metal door.
"Crack." There was a buzzing sound, and a crack appeared on the metal door.
Fu Yunshen's expression froze.
Ying Zijin patted him on the shoulder and said calmly, "I couldn't help it. You're welcome."
The Minister of Security: "…"
You f * cking call this an ordinary person?!
Was he blind?
Even if an ancient martial art practitioner wanted to destroy such a thick and heavy metal door, he would need at least 50 years of cultivation.
The Elders of the Hall of Justice were at the headquarters, and the Minister of Security's cultivation wasn't that high. When he heard that Fu Yunshen was at the auction, he went to invite him.
"I still have to thank you." Fu Yunshen curled his lips. "Let me think about how I should thank you."
Ying Zijin was expressionless. "Then you don't have to thank me."
She could almost imagine how he would thank her.
The metal door was already cracked, so it was much easier to destroy it.
Yunshan and Yunwu quickly dismantled the metal door.
"Thank you, Sir Guards." The Minister of Security stepped forward and looked in the direction that Fu Yunshen and Ying Zijin left. "That young lady …"
Yunshan glanced at him coldly. "You're a member of the Hall of Justice. You know what to record and what not to record, right?"
The Minister of Security wiped his sweat and trembled. "I know, I know. I naturally wouldn't dare to leak information about you."
As expected, he was the weakest here.
**
At half past seven, the Hall of Justice's management staff arrived at the auction house.
Lin Qingjia was led by the butler into the Spring Jade private room.
Lin Qingjia was supposed to go to the Elders of the Lin family, but An Rou Jin was lonely, so she applied to accompany her.
Anyway, she didn't have to pay special attention to the auction. Lin Jinyun would buy everything for her.
"Qingjia." An Rou Jin wiped the corner of her mouth and pursed her lips. "I saw your father."
Lin Qingjia turned around. "Ah, isn't Dad not here yet? He's talking to the Taylor family. I don't know what they're talking about. "
"It's not Jing Yun." An Rou Jin's eyes were filled with worry. "It's your biological one."

Roar, continue to ask for a sweet monthly ticket ~

The ancient martial arts world was closed to the outside world. It was like the Peach Blossom Spring. You can just think of it as the ancient times. Ninety-nine percent of the people there didn't pay attention to the modern world and even rejected it. The Ling family and the Ji family were special cases.
