The bodyguards were stopped outside the door, but Lin Tian personally took them inside.
With Lin Tian by their side, the group naturally did not have to worry about safety.
Moreover, they were familiar with Lin Tian's value, and a treasure even he praised; they were also eager to witness it for themselves.
Indeed, the mont they saw the Pearl, everyone was stunned. Witnessing the Pearl's brilliant radiance, all eyes widened, and mouths gaped open as if they had seen a "UFO."
With the Pearl as the store's centerpiece, the status of ngting's Jewelry store shot up instantly, and everyone agreed that it was destined to break into the top 500 in the world without any problem.
Bu ngting was delighted; after viewing the Pearl, she invited everyone to dinner.
A table was set at a five-star hotel, and they had a heavy drinking feast.
Breaking into the top 500, the little wife's wish, was thoroughly fulfilled.
At night, Bu ngting was very happy, slightly tipsy and exhausted. He Qianqian supported her, and she went to sleep.
It was only eight o'clock, and Lin Tian was not ready to go to sleep so early. He took out that mysterious egg from the 'Taotie System' and started researching it.
The egg was so big; it was half the height of a person and could fit a calf inside.
In Lin Tian's knowledge, he had never seen any creature that could lay such a large egg.
Recalling the fish around the big egg that seed to be spellbound, Lin Tian concluded that this big egg must be extraordinary.
But what exactly was incubating inside it still remained a mystery.
Lin Tian had used 'Subdue the Heavens' to examine it carefully, but the interior was murky, like a puddle of creek water, and he could see nothing clearly. Having no other choice, he gave up!
Afterward, he did not put the big egg back into the 'Taotie System'; he just left it outside. He watched so reality TV shows for a while and then went to sleep.
...,...!
"Ah...!"
A scream pierced through Lin Tian's eardrums, startling him.
He instantly woke up, shaking off any grogginess and quickly ran outside.
"What's wrong?"
He ca out and saw his wives; when he realized they were all right, he was relieved.
It seed that the scream ca from Bu ngting, so he hurriedly asked, "Little wife, what's wrong?"
Bu ngting was sowhat panicked and did not respond, instead, she pointed at sothing nearby with her eyes full of shock.
"Damn!"
Lin Tian exclaid in surprise, his expression of astonishnt no less intense than that of his wives.
Won, well, they love their flowers and plants. Bu ngting had planted more than a dozen pots of flowers in the apartnt, which were originally thriving, but now they had all withered away.
He Qianqian had kept two goldfish; they were rare, and it had taken her a lot of effort to buy them, but now, the life energy of the two goldfish seed to have been sucked dry, and they were floating belly-up in the bathtub, dead in a very tragic manner.
Bu ngting and He Qianqian hurried over to Lin Tian, each grabbing one of his arms, their hearts still in their throats.
Bu ngting said, "Husband, could it be that our apartnt is haunted?"
He Qianqian said, "Husband, look at those two goldfish, could we have encountered vampires?"
Lin Tian was also alard, but he quickly found the reason.
It was that egg, the big egg.
Yes, it had to be it!
Last night before Lin Tian went to sleep, he hadn't put the big egg into the 'Taotie System.' And since the big egg sucked blood, the plants withering and the fish dying must have been caused by that big egg.
He hurried to the side of the large egg, took a close look at it, and didn't notice anything unusual. However, when he activated "Subdue the Heavens" to observe, he suddenly saw that inside the eggshell, a very fine and subtle vital energy had appeared, and the life within the eggshell seed to have grown stronger.
Though sowhat surprised, Lin Tian still felt a tinge of joy. Based on his guess, the large egg was absorbing vital energy on its own to nourish itself. As long as it absorbed enough vital energy, the creature inside could break out of the eggshell.
But then again, how much vital energy would be needed for the creature inside the large egg to break out? Conservatively estimated, at least a whole forest's worth.
Trees are sothing Huaxia was indeed short of, and if Lin Tian were to forcibly let the large egg absorb an entire forest, it would surely bring disaster upon them.
But what to do? How could he make the creature within the large egg hatch?
Just as Lin Tian was at a loss, He Qianqian and Bu ngting walked in; both his wives were seeing such a huge egg for the first ti.
Bu ngting exclaid, "Husband, what kind of monster is this!"
He Qianqian said, "Could it be this monster that killed my goldfish?"
With that, they both stepped back in unison, eyeing the large egg with expressions of fear.
Lin Tian felt a wave of embarrassnt and quickly made the 'Taotie System' take the large egg away, then he comforted his wives.
"It was my oversight that led to the death of those beautiful flowers and obedient fish. How about this, today we go buy more flowers, more fish, I'll buy you even better ones."
"This ti I want four, and also, keep an eye on your large egg, don't let it harm my goldfish again," said He Qianqian, looking displeased.
"And my flowers, this ti I want to buy more, and you'll have to carry them back for ," Bu ngting added from the side.
"Alright, I'll listen to you both," Lin Tian, assuming the role of a compliant child, was obedient to his wives' words.
The three of them then went to Bai Cao Market, a place that sold fish, flowers, cats, dogs, and the like.
Despite agreeing to only buy fish and flowers, once they entered shopping mode, Lin Tian realized that a woman's word was unreliable.
You could say that a shopping woman had lost her reason.
Bare, naked reason.
Upon seeing a Persian cat, only about twenty days old and very cute, indeed quite beautiful,
Bu ngting was instantly smitten upon seeing the kitten and couldn't move on. She tugged on He Qianqian's sleeve, "Qianqian, look at this kitten, isn't it lovely?"
Filled with maternal love, He Qianqian imdiately picked up the kitten and said, "Then let's buy it!"
Thus, the apartnt gained a new mber: the Persian cat.
Arriving at the flower stall, Bu ngting was captivated by a pot of Lantern Flowers, asking the owner, "How much for this?"
The owner, a woman in her forties with a shrewd expression, laughed and said, "One price, eighteen hundred, no bargaining."
Bu ngting hesitated a little, looked towards He Qianqian, who imdiately stepped up, "This pot is too small, and look, so of the leaves are dry, eighteen hundred is too expensive. How about eight hundred?"
Hearing the offer of eight hundred, Bu ngting felt a rush of excitent inside.
So she had looked at He Qianqian expecting her to haggle!
It seed the senior wife was fiercer after all.
"Eight hundred ans a loss for . Here's what, sixteen hundred is the lowest I can go, I can't reduce it any further."
"Twelve hundred."
"Fourteen hundred."
"Thirteen hundred."
"No, add another fifty."
"Just thirteen hundred, not a penny more."
"Fine, it's a deal."
