The sweet smile on her face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a cold, expressionless face.
With a cold glint in her eyes, Chi Jiao retracted her hand from the amulet abruptly and held it firmly in her palm.
At the same time, an offensive magnetic field invisible to the naked eye emerged from her palm and surrounded the amulet.
As Chi Jiao’s lips curled into a cold smile, the amulet began to emit smoke as it burned.
At the same time.
In a villa somewhere in White City, a young girl who was eating with her family suddenly felt a sharp pain in her head and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Instantly, the people at the dining table panicked.
Chi Jiao seemed to have sensed the young girl’s pain. The smile on her lips became even more obvious. There was a hint of evilness in her sweetness.
Chi Jiao held the amulet by its string and brought it close to her eyes. “Wait for me. I’ll find you soon.”
On the other side, the girl who was still having a splitting headache heard a sweet and soft voice rang beside her ears without warning. Instantly, her hair stood on end and her body trembled violently.
However, the voice was fleeting, and it was easy to think that it was a hallucination.
Therefore, the young girl quickly stopped caring. However, the heaviness in her eyes did not decrease at all.
Someone had destroyed her magnetic field mark.
…
The next day.
When Chi Mingwei brought Chi Jiao to her grandparents’ house, Quan Jue received a message from Quan Jingzhou.
The message only contained a hotel address.
Empire Hotel was owned by the Quan family. They had a few branches in Country Hua.
There was a knock on the door. Drinking coffee by the window, Quan Jingzhou shot a look at the man sitting on the sofa not far away.
“Quan Liu, open the door.”
Quan Liu nodded respectfully and stood up to open the door.
After Quan Liu opened the door, Quan Jingzhou was not surprised to see Quan Jue walk in.
Quan Jue’s aura was very cold. When he saw Quan Jingzhou, he didn’t call him “dad”. He stood a distance away from him with his hands in his pockets. “You said there’s something about my mom. What’s going on?”
Quan Jingzhou was in no hurry to answer his question. He motioned to the seat opposite him with his eyes. “Sit.”
Quan Jue thought for a while and walked to the seat opposite him.
“Coffee or tea?” Quan Jingzhou seemed to be deliberately expending Quan Jue’s patience as he asked slowly.
Quan Jue narrowed his eyes coldly. “Looks like you’re not planning to tell me,” he said impatiently.
Quan Jingzhou had a disapproving look on his face. His emotions couldn’t be seen from his expression. “Young man, don’t be so anxious. Have some patience.”
Quan Jue did not answer. His deep eyes were filled with coldness.
However, Quan Jingzhou seemed to sense his impatience. He took out a photo from his pocket, placed it on the table, and pushed it to him. “Take a look. See if you recognize the woman in this photo.”
The moment Quan Jue’s eyes landed on the photo, his gaze seemed to be glued to it. His eyes were filled with stormy waves. He was obviously shaken.
How could Quan Jue not recognize the woman in the photo?
She was his mother.
Even though the woman in the photo looked much younger than his mother should be, Quan Jue still recognized her at a glance.
The photo’s background seemed to be a shopping mall. She was smiling gently in the photo. Her youthful appearance made her look to be in her early twenties at most. There was happiness in her eyes, and an unfamiliar man could be seen beside her.
