Seeing Xia Ningning’s increasingly impatient expression on her face, Xu Lele hastened to take leave, "Seeing that you’re alright, I’m already fully satisfied. Now, I’m going shopping with Ningning, so I won’t keep you company any longer!"
Xu Lele cheerfully took Xia Ningning by the arm and walked out of the room.
Not long after the two girls left, Lin Bingqing opened her eyes and began to vent her dissatisfaction.
"Master, that Xia Ningning is too much, how could she speak to you like that?"
"I really want to beat her up!"
Ye Ming advised, "Better not, she’s just a bit offensive with her words, but she’s not bad at heart."
"Besides, if you beat her up, Le Le will also be unhappy."
Seeing Ye Ming’s response, Lin Bingqing felt a twinge of jealousy in her heart.
"But... she’s too bullying."
Lin Bingqing said, unwilling to accept it.
Ye Ming smiled indifferently, not taking it seriously, "What I need to do now is make those who look down on afraid to ridicule again in the future."
"Their ridicule is the motivation for my progress."
Having interacted over the past few days, although Xia Ningning always mocked him, Ye Ming actually felt grateful to her.
Her words only brought more motivation to Ye Ming, making him even stronger.
As for Xu Lele, Ye Ming was of course aware of the girl’s feelings for him, as clear as day.
He was very pleased and fond of Xu Lele, but he was not satisfied with himself.
He didn’t want to be seen as a pretty face living off a woman, so for Xu Lele, he had to improve himself even faster.
After hearing Ye Ming’s reflections, Lin Bingqing’s admiration grew, fostering even greater respect for Ye Ming.
She had not realized that Ye Ming had such temperant, and felt she had chosen the right ntor.
In the ti that followed, Ye Ming briefly gave Lin Bingqing a few pointers before returning to his own room, taking the Jade Plate and beginning to examine it.
He continued to channel the True Qi from his body into the Jade Plate, and started to close his eyes and feel.
A long ti passed, until Ye Ming had spent most of his True Qi, but the Jade Plate remained unmoved, continuing to absorb the True Qi fed into it by Ye Ming.
This phenonon greatly surprised Ye Ming.
He felt the space within the Jade Plate was like a bottomless pit, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t fill it up.
The only discovery was that a few dark green patterns had appeared on the Jade Plate.
The patterns were distributed irregularly, as if they were indicating the progress of his True Qi storage.
Ye Ming, driven by curiosity, decided to go full throttle and continue transmitting True Qi.
An entire night passed, and Ye Ming was drenched in sweat.
The True Qi within him was almost depleted, only when he was in this state did the bottomless pit inside the Jade Plate finally seem to show signs of being filled up.
Ye Ming stopped his efforts and looked at the Jade Plate again, the patterns that had appeared on it were gradually becoming clear, resembling a vividly lifelike Kirin.
"Truly a masterpiece!"
Ye Ming exclaid, his smiling face unable to be concealed. He knew he had stumbled upon a great treasure.
This object was the legendary Kirin Jade Bracelet, which according to ancient texts, had very powerful abilities -- it could aid in cultivation as well as serve as an amulet.
Ye Ming knew he had not wasted his efforts; he picked up the bracelet and flung it hard to the ground, shattering it into pieces, then once again used his True Qi to carefully craft it.
Soon, the two fragnts, under the crafting of True Qi, beca smooth and rounded.
As for the ownership of these two amulets, Ye Ming had already made a plan in his heart.
One for his mother, and another for Xu Lele.
Ye Ming believed that these were the two most important won by his side, and he could not allow others to harm them.
With the amulets, he would feel much more at ease.
It was at this mont that his cellphone rang.
After picking up the call, Qin Tianyu’s excited voice ca through, "Mr. Ye, my father has woken up, thank you so much!"
This outco was sothing Ye Ming had anticipated, so he wasn’t surprised.
"I’m glad to hear he’s alright," Ye Ming said in a calm tone.
Qin Tianyu quickly said, "Mr. Ye, my father would like to invite you to a al, may I know when you would be available so we can make preparations?"
"Really, there’s no need to go to such trouble!" Ye Ming began to refuse.
"Mr. Ye, how could it be trouble? It’s just a simple al, and I will personally co to pick you up," Qin Tianyu said very eagerly.
As the saying goes, don’t slap a smiling face. Qin Tianyu’s enthusiastic attitude, so different from yesterday’s, left Ye Ming uncertain how to refuse.
In the end, unable to withstand Qin Tianyu’s persistence, Ye Ming agreed.
"Alright, alright, Mr. Ye, let’s say tonight at eight, I’ll co to pick you up personally!" Qin Tianyu said.
But Ye Ming quickly replied, "No need to pick up, I can go there by myself."
"Sure thing, as long as you’re happy," Qin Tianyu responded.
After this brief exchange, Ye Ming finally hung up the phone.
Having realized the value of the Jade Plate after his research last night, he was already quite content; as for the Qin Family’s favor, he didn’t care whether he received it or not.
However, Old Master Qin wouldn’t have it.
Old Master Qin, upon awakening and learning what had transpired, was very grateful to Ye Ming. It could be said that Ye Ming had given him a second chance at life.
Yet, when he found out that in the end, Ye Ming had only taken a broken Jade Plate, his face darkened on the spot, and he nearly ca to blows with Qin Tianyu.
No matter how Qin Tianyu explained, Old Master Qin wouldn’t believe it and insisted on eting Ye Ming personally to deliver a generous gift.
This was why Qin Tianyu was so eager to please Ye Ming.
Over the course of the day, Ye Ming turned the remaining jade fragnts into a ring and a bracelet.
He stepped out of his room and handed the ring to Lin Bingqing, saying, "You should wear this from now on; it should be sowhat useful to you."
Lin Bingqing was delighted. Even though she only saw an ordinary white jade ring, she loved it because it was a gift from Ye Ming.
But when she put the ring on her finger, she was utterly shocked.
Within the small ring, there was a hidden colossal power which she could hardly withstand.
"Now your abilities are still shallow, so don’t try to absorb the energy from the ring, just consider it your protective ring."
"If you want power, give it so ti, and I’ll help you!"
After saying these words, Ye Ming went straight out the door.
Following the location given by Qin Tianyu, Ye Ming arrived at the Tianyun Hotel.
He stood outside the entrance, waiting for Qin Tianyu to appear.
But just then, soone tapped on his shoulder, and a familiar voice ca from beside him, "Ye Ming? Is it really you? I thought I was mistaken. We haven’t seen each other for so long, yet you still look this miserable?"
