Chapter 3 “Then I’ll leave?”
Song Yuqing shouted angrily, turning to leave in a huff, but a cold voice came from behind her.
“Stop.”
Song Yuqing paused, a smug smile immediately appearing on her lips.
“If you want to apologize—”
“You’re overthinking it.”
Jiang Ran leaned back lazily in the dressing chair, a playful glint in her beautiful eyes: “Within ten steps, don’t look left or right as you go downstairs, or you’ll be in for a bloody accident.”
She pinched her slender fingers together, the movement overly practiced.
Song Yuqing turned around in surprise, only to see Jiang Ran’s cold smile. She glared at her incredulously, sneering, “Heh, you’d better watch out for those two things coming out of your belly!”
With that, she turned and walked away without looking back.
Jiang Ran raised an eyebrow, playing with the jewelry on the table, calmly counting.
“1, 2, 3—”
“Bang—Ahhhhh!”
A scream came from outside the door, and something fell to the ground with a crisp sound, as if something had been smashed.
Jiang Ran sighed softly.
She had told her long ago, but she wouldn’t listen.
These people, if they wanted to die, there was no stopping them.
If it were her past life, countless people would have spent their entire fortunes just to have her divine their fortune, but this group of people…
Shaking her head helplessly, Jiang Ran got up and went back to bed, sat cross-legged, concentrated her mind and gathered her energy, and performed the Meridian Incantation. She
was still a little unaccustomed to this body and needed to recuperate and adjust her breathing, while also thinking about how to return.
Her breathing was slow and steady, slowly gathering all the essence in her body and sinking it to her dantian.
If someone with some cultivation were to look closely at this moment, they would see a faint golden mist gathering around Jiang Ran, slowly seeping into her heart and spleen.
Absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was something Jiang Ran had practiced since childhood.
Although the Si family’s feng shui wasn’t as good as Kunshan’s, it was still considered a place of outstanding people and abundant resources.
Jiang Ran subconsciously regulated her breathing, constantly exploring the sources of spiritual energy in the air. However, in the next second, she suddenly opened her eyes.
Her pupils focused on the thin, misty golden aura in the air. Following the source of the golden aura, Jiang Ran discovered that the dense source was actually on the other side of the room.
There was another person here?
Jiang Ran was startled and immediately got up. Only when she got closer did she realize that the room was actually a suite with another room inside.
Pushing open the door, a strong smell of disinfectant hit her, causing Jiang Ran to frown.
In the dimly lit room, a figure lay dormant on the bed, the golden aura around him
faintly visible. Jiang Ran was stunned.
All the golden energy in this room originated from one person?
She subconsciously turned on the light and saw a handsome and outstanding man lying asleep on the bed, with a machine maintaining his vital signs beside him.
Thin tubes were connected to the man’s body, and beneath the transparent respirator, his handsome features were clearly defined, his deep-set eyes as striking as a god’s.
Damn, she almost forgot she had a husband!
Jiang Ran slapped her forehead, only then remembering why the Si family would marry a woman like her.
Six years ago, Si Yanxiao and his first love were in a car accident, leaving him in a vegetative state.
It was said that Si Yanxiao was cursed, and any woman who approached him would meet a terrible end.
Therefore, Old Master Si found a woman with a strong fate like Jiang Ran, brought her into the Si family overnight, and even used scientific methods to get the original owner pregnant, resulting in the successful birth of twins.
Old Master Si was an upright man, even handing over 15% of the company’s shares to the original owner.
Unfortunately, the original owner was an ignorant fool who was misled into selling these shares.
Jiang Ran sighed, although she had foreseen that this man was no ordinary person, she never expected that someone would possess such a powerful aura of feng shui.
As she pondered, she stepped forward, her slender fingers caressing the man’s face.
The instant her fingertips touched his cheek, a tremendous energy, like a sleeping beast, erupted, unleashing immense power that surged into Jiang Ran’s body.
Her eyes widened in shock!
This was… Imperial Qi!
Within destiny, from the Qi of Feng Shui to the Qi of Human Connections, and then to the Heavenly Dao, ascends step by step, like a ladder—something cultivators are intimately familiar with.
Merely comprehending the Qi of Feng Shui would be enough for Jiang Ran to become a master of divination.
Yet, Jiang Ran, this “husband,” was imbued with Imperial Qi!
Since ancient times, monarchs have often been ruthless; those above all others inevitably possess a murderous aura.
And Si Yanxiao possessed Imperial Sorrow!
This explained why all the women who approached Si Yanxiao suffered misfortune.
The destiny of ordinary people was far from sufficient to withstand the Imperial Qi emanating from Si Yanxiao. If a man were to benefit from it, that would be one thing, but for a woman, only misfortune awaited.
But Jiang Ran was no ordinary woman.
A surge of joy welled up within her. Wasn’t this a godsend?
If she could utilize Si Yanxiao’s imperial aura, it might help her break through the barrier of interpersonal connections and advance to the Heavenly Dao. That way, it wouldn’t be a complete waste of her cultivation.
Lost in thought, her hand already moved towards the man’s neck, downwards, and then—
“Bang!”
The door to the room was suddenly flung open. The maid stared in horror at Jiang Ran, who was caressing the man on the bed, her eyes filled with fear.
“Madam! Please stop!”
Jiang Ran: ???
Please…stop?
What did she do?
Before Jiang Ran could react, the maid rushed over like a whirlwind, shoved Jiang Ran aside, quickly checked all the equipment, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
“Madam, sir…I’ll take care of sir here. You…you should go shopping!”
Jiang Ran frowned, her face grim.
What the hell?
“You can’t even touch my husband?”
These words sent a chill down the maid’s spine.
Touch? Last time, she’d only “touched” him once, and this crazy woman had practically ripped off his respirator!
The maid was terrified. Everyone in the villa knew how ruthless this woman was!
She not only constantly beat and verbally abused the two young masters, but had even tried to murder her husband. Such a ruthless woman, so extravagant and lazy, was practically unheard of!
Therefore, she trembled even more: “Madam, you…you should rest well. I’ll be here—”
Jiang Ran was both amused and exasperated, “So, I’ll leave?”
The maid was almost in tears upon hearing this, her face filled with relief. Just as she was about to speak, a voice came from outside the door:
“Madam, someone is looking for you.”
