Luo Feiyang shook his head.”No, the invitations this time seem to be for the heirs of the big families. It’s obvious that Li Xiao wants to win over some power. My brother is the heir of our family, and I …”
He couldn’t continue because he felt too embarrassed!
Jing Xi finally had a chance to use him, but Li Xiao didn’t even like him!
“If that’s the case, then Ji moxuan should have received it. I’ll go look for him!”
“No, no, no, I have a way to take you there. There’s no need to find him!”
!!
Two days later, Li Jing’s birthday party was held at the Li family’s ancestral home.
Luo Feiyang had arrived with Jing Xi.
W city was located in the South, several cities away from A city. It took the two of them more than three hours to get there.
The late autumn in the North was already very cold, but the late autumn in the south was still a little warm. Although it was wet, the warm feeling made Jing Xi feel much better.
The Li family was extremely famous in city W. Almost everyone knew about the manor that covered an area of thousands of acres.
Luo Feiyang and Jing Xi found the place easily.
But even if they found it, the two of them still had some doubts in their hearts.
This place was filled with a sinister aura and was filled with tall pine and cypress trees. Who would grow these things in their house?
Pine trees and cypress trees were used to plant in haunted houses, which meant that they were planted around tombs, symbolizing that the dead could live forever.
The Li family had planted so many pine and cypress trees. Could it be that the ancestors of the family had been buried here for generations?
At the thought that there might be countless bones buried here, Luo Feiyang shuddered. He was so scared that his hair stood up.
He was a little regretful. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have accompanied Jing Xi here. Li Jing was a vicious person, and Li Xiao wasn’t a human either. Would he lose his life here for a birthday party?
No wonder he had agreed so readily when he had asked Luo feichui for an invitation. He must have known that there was something fishy going on, so he had not taken the risk!
Luo Feiyang was trying to back out, but Jing Xi took a deep breath, grabbed his arm, and said calmly,””Let’s go in!”
“This … Why isn’t there anyone here to welcome us? Did we come to the wrong place? Why don’t we ask around?”
“No need, this should be the place.”
Before she came, Jing Xi had already learned from Jing Rui that the Li family’s ancestral home was indeed a large and solemn Manor with pine and cypress trees.
Besides, Luo Feiyang’s guess was right. The Li family’s ancestors had been buried in this Manor for generations.
Perhaps, the ground under their feet had buried a skeleton that had been sleeping for a hundred years.
But Jing Xi didn’t say anything. It would be bad if she scared Luo Feiyang away.
As a member of the Jing family, she might not be able to enter the main hall of the banquet with the invitation of the Luo family. If she could not enter the main hall, she would not be able to see Li Xiao.
Luo Feiyang had come in place of his brother and brought his own female companion to replace his sister-in-law. That made sense.
The sun was setting in the West, and the light gradually dimmed. After entering the manor, the gloomy feeling became even stronger.
The South was always wet and rainy. At this moment, small fish suddenly floated in the sky and fell on the tall pine and cypress trees. Everywhere was foggy, and soon, everything around could not be seen clearly.
Luo Feiyang was so scared that he had goosebumps all over his body. If it wasn’t for Jing Xi who was still walking quietly along the wooden plank Road, he would have turned around and run!
The atmosphere was too scary. Luo Feiyang couldn’t bear the heavy pressure. He cleared his throat and shouted,””Is there anyone? I’m the second young master of the Luo family, come out and welcome us!”
His roar reverberated in the gloomy forest.
However, no one responded.
A large flock of crows was disturbed by the sound, and they cawed with their hoarse voices, making the atmosphere even more strange.
Luo Feiyang was on the verge of tears.”Xixi,” he said.”This Li Xiao can’t be thinking of killing all the heirs of the families here, right?” In a place like this, no one will know if someone dies. By the time the police arrive, my body would have been eaten by the crows!”
“That’s impossible. Unless he doesn’t want to live anymore, he wouldn’t murder the heirs of the various families. Hurry up, there’s a light up ahead!”
Luo Feiyang’s spirits were lifted. He followed Jing Xi and quickened his pace.
He grumbled in a low voice.”If I had known that it would be so scary, I should have come with that bastard Ji moxuan. Otherwise, if I died and he lived, he would be so lonely!”
Jing Xi was amused by him. She didn’t expect that the arrogant Luo Feiyang was afraid of ghosts.
There were no ghosts in the world. Moreover, the most terrifying thing was not ghosts, but the human heart!
Everything in the Li family’s Manor had an ancient charm to it. Even the roads were wooden plank roads connected by pine and cypress trees. The house was hidden in the depths of the manor, deep and magnificent.
After walking out of the large forest, the area in front of them suddenly opened up. The gloomy feeling had dissipated a lot, and there was the smell of human habitation.
A servant came up to them, took a look at the invitation, and led the two of them to the banquet hall.
“I say, old man, why doesn’t your family have a welcome? I almost lost my way, you know!”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. Young master, our young master and young lady don’t like crowds. There are only a few servants in such a big garden. Today’s banquet was a bit busy and the hospitality was not good. Please forgive us!”
Luo Feiyang frowned. This old man was so polite, but why did it sound like he was not from the same era as him?
He looked at the old man’s ancient long robe and then looked at his own modern suit. He started to feel scared again.
This old man … Could he be a ghost that had lived for more than a hundred years?
It was not until they entered the banquet hall that the creepy feeling in Luo Feiyang’s heart disappeared. Although the banquet hall was also in an ancient style, it was filled with a modern atmosphere. There was a huge LED display, central air conditioning, champagne, Western food, desserts …
Luo Feiyang heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing that Jing Xi’s expression had not changed from the beginning to the end, he felt a little discouraged.
He now knew why Jing Xi looked down on him. Her mental strength and ability to adapt were much better than his!
It was only when he saw that Ji moxuan, who had just walked in, had also turned pale and had a bewildered expression on his face that Luo Feiyang felt a little more at ease.
He knew it. It was not that he was a coward, but that Jing Xi was too strong!
Shouldn’t a girl be trembling in fear and throwing herself into a man’s arms when she encountered such a situation?
If it was tan Ruyi, she would have been so scared that she would have cried. He could show off his manliness by pulling her into his arms and saying fearlessly,””Don’t be afraid, I’ll protect you!”
Now, all he needed to do was to run into Jing Xi’s arms and beg for her protection!
However, when Luo Feiyang saw the female companion beside Ji moxuan, he immediately rolled his eyes. How did he get involved with Wu Wei again? And he had even brought her to such an important occasion!
He didn’t like Wu Wei and immediately went to find trouble with him.
Jing Xi walked slowly in the banquet hall alone. She had walked through the two floors, but she did not see Li Xiao.
She thought for a moment, then jumped down from the second floor of the banquet hall and entered a house behind the banquet hall.
However, just as she stepped into the main hall of the house, a cold voice rang out behind her,””Miss Jing, please leave!”
