"Sister Lan, what is Yujing?"

"have no idea."

“…”

Ning Xi tilted her head, "Mom, didn't you say you know?"

"I only know some basic things, but I don't know what the essence of jade crystal is."

Ye Fan smiled bitterly when he heard this answer, and had to change his way of asking, "Sister Lan, what do you know?"

Lan Xi cleared her throat, "I have seen this thing in Yujing. Xiaoxi's grandmother had one before, but there were too many people who could peek at this kind of thing."

Speaking of this, a bit of sadness appeared in her eyes. "At present, it was also because of the death of Yujing. I don't know much about the specific role of Yujing. However, my mother told me that the earthly energy contained in the Yujing can nourish the human body and prolong life."

Prolong life?

Hearing these four words, neither Ye Fan nor Ning Xi could help but be shocked.

Lan Xi calmed down and said with a smile: "It's hard to say whether it's true or not. Moreover, there is very few Yujing. Over the years, I have never seen it again except for the one from Xiaoxi's grandmother, even if I have never heard of it."

Ning Xi pursed her lips, "Mom, as you say, I will not wear this jade crystal on my body anymore. I don't want to be targeted."

"Wear!"

Ye Fan and Lan Xi said in unison.

Ning Xi was stunned, with a puzzled look in her eyes, "Why?"

Lan Xi glanced at Ye Fan, and her gentle words were confident, "Now is not as good as before, your father and I have enough ability to protect you."

Ning Xi nodded thoughtfully, then looked at Ye Fan, "Where is brother?"

Ye Fan smiled softly, "Xiao Xi, you are a key national protection personnel now. Who dares to make an idea of ​​you is just looking for a dead end."

Ning Xi nodded.

Lan Xi raised the ruby ​​in her hand, "Xiao Xi, how are you going to deal with this thing?"

"I'm giving it to my mother."

"ah?"

Lan Xi was stunned, "Send me?"

"yes."

Ning Xi blinked with a smile, "Does Xiaoxi have a conscience?"

"By barely..."

Recalling his daughter's attitude just now, Lan Xi instantly understood that a little embarrassing feeling appeared on her face.

Ning Xi smiled sweetly and leaned on Ye Fan's shoulder, "Brother, sister Ziyi and sister Feifei are coming later, and they say they are discussing the competition."

Because I have experienced a lot recently, Ye Fan has already put this matter aside. Now, hearing Ning Xi mention it, he can't help but shake his head and laugh, "Xiao Xi, it's hard for us to go abroad now."

Ning Xi stayed for a few seconds before she realized, "Oh? It seems like yes."

She shook Ye Fan's arm, "Brother, what should I do now? We have already agreed to the two sisters, it's not good to regret it, right?"

"It's not very good, but there's nothing we can do."

Ye Fan explained: "After the day after the medal ceremony, we will be listed by countless countries. It is too dangerous to go abroad; I guess Mr. Lu will not agree to us going abroad."

Hearing the conversation between the two, Lan Xi showed a faint smile in her eyes. She stood up and sat opposite her with coffee and started drinking slowly.

Ning Xi looked helpless, "Let me think about it..."

Just then, a sound of footsteps came.

Zhuang Li walked into the living room with Gu Ziyi and Mo Feifei.

"Miss, your friend is here to look for it."

"Thank you uncle."

Ning Xi put away his thoughts, stood up and greeted him, "Two sisters, long time no see."

"Xiao Xi, your figure seems to have changed again..."

Halfway through his words, Gu Ziyi realized something and coughed dryly, but her eyes were still firmly locked on Ning Xi and muttered in a low voice: "Is this a man's benefit?"

Mo Feifei smiled secretly and took Ning Xi's hand, "Xiaoxi, I've been watching the whole speech meeting a few days ago. Can you scold me? I'm going to be a fool, too."

Ning Xi: "…"

Why hasn't this joke been passed yet?

Feeling uncomfortable!

Lan Xi put down the coffee cup and said, "Come on, sit down and chat."

"Hello aunt."

The two women greeted each other and sat beside Lan Xi.

Lan Xi looked at the two women and praised: "It is said that playing chess to cultivate temperament, but it turns out."

Gu Ziyi smiled, "Auntie, Xiaoxi's temperament is much better than that of us."

Lan Xi waved her hand, "It's different. Xiaoxi has received the top education since childhood. Children who grow up in this environment will not have bad temperament."

"cough!"

Ning Xi was dissatisfied and protested: "It's all my contribution to my parents, so why don't Xiao Xi have any share?"

Lan Xi raised her eyebrows, "Look, this is her true face. Don't be fooled by her face."

Gu Ziyi and Mo Feifei were both amused.

Ning Xi hummed a few words, remembering the next Go competition, and didn't know how to speak.

Gu Ziyi noticed the ruby ​​on the coffee table and said in confusion: "What a beautiful glass bead, is this a decoration?"

“…”

The atmosphere in the living room showed a brief strangeness.

Lan Xi quickly put away the ruby ​​and smiled and said, "You guys talk first, I'll go upstairs to prepare some fruit."

After the words, he stood up and left.

Gu Ziyi was confused.

Did she say something wrong?

Ye Fan spoke and broke the silence, "Ziyi, Feifei; Xiaoxi and I may not be able to participate in the next game."

When he heard this, Mo Feifei frowned, "Xiaoxi is the top power of the chess team. With her joining, we have a lot of hope to compete for the championship in this year's Women's Team World Championship."

"Well, I know this."

Ye Fan smiled apologetically, "But Xiaoxi and I are more sensitive. The competition is held abroad, so we can't go abroad."

Hearing this reason, Mo Feifei didn't know what to say, so she turned her head and looked at Gu Ziyi.

Gu Ziyi also fell silent.

Ning Xi pinched his fingers tightly, "I'm really sorry for my two sisters; in fact, my brother and I don't want to go back on our word, but the current situation does not allow us to go abroad."

Gu Ziyi asked, "Ye Fan, Xiao Xi; are you two really fifth-level academicians of the Academy of Sciences?"

Although Ning Xi said it in public at the speech meeting, the official has never given a confirmation, and no one knows whether it is true or false.

In fact, Gu Ziyi believed in Ning Xi, and the reason why she asked this was that she was still a little fantasy.

"Um."

Ning Xi nodded.

Upon hearing this, Gu Ziyi's last glimmer of hope was gone. She gave Mo Feifei a helpless look, "It is indeed very dangerous for a fifth-level academician to go abroad."

Mo Feifei smiled bitterly.

Now that things have come to this point, she has nothing to say.

The atmosphere suddenly became silent.

Lan Xi came over with fruits and saw that few people didn't say anything, "What are you doing in such a silence?"

Ning Xi forced herself to smile and said, "It's nothing, the two sisters are here to eat fruit."

Gu Ziyi and Mo Feifei nodded.

The atmosphere continues to remain silent.

Lan Xi couldn't help laughing out loud, "You can think about everything from a different perspective. Isn't it just that I want to participate in the World Go competition? It's not that there is no solution."

???

The three girls looked question marks.

Even Ye Fan was very confused.
