Although Bai Meimei could not display her culinary skills, she could use other methods to make Jiu Zhu realize how good she was.
She did not believe that she could not make Jiang Ming like her.
Xiang Tianqi saw through Bai Meimei’s thoughts and shook his head.
He did not want his wife to be too ostentatious. It would be bad if Jiang Ming and the other two did not like her.
However, Bai Meimei was persistent.
She felt that although her husband was good, he was not ambitious.
If the three of them could stay for a long time, the Zhang Family Organization would definitely benefit.
Xiang Tianqi sighed secretly.
e knew that his wife was very ambitious. It seemed that he had also tried to stop her at the critical moment.
While they were thinking about this, they had already arrived at the secret room with the puppet.
This secret room was specially built by Xiang Tianqi for this puppet. All the s.p.a.ce was given to the puppet.
The entire secret room was very large, but other than a table, there was nothing else.
Xiang Tianqi explained, “In order to show our devotion, we did not put anything aside. We came in kneeling on the ground, hoping that the puppet would be safe and that my wife would be safe. Who knew that the puppet would suddenly break?”
As he spoke, he was angry and helpless.
He had installed many mechanisms and layers of guards in this secret chamber, but in the end, an accident still happened.
The people in the organization were all useless. They could not even take care of a puppet.
If this person wanted to kill someone, wouldn’t he and his wife have died long ago?
On the other side, the servants of the Zhang family were still crying.
“Boss, please forgive us. We really didn’t expect the puppet to be damaged.”
“We didn’t see anyone coming, let alone any traces of humans coming here.
There wasn’t even a trace of an animal. The puppet was damaged for no reason, but even so, we can’t escape the blame.”
Xiang Tianqi was already unhappy. Hearing this, he could not help but become irritated.
“Then if you say so, did this puppet break by itself? You guys are really ridiculous. This puppet is an object. Aren’t you afraid of being punished by others for spouting such nonsense? If someone came in, then someone came in. There’s no need to say anything else.”
As he spoke, he began to pant violently, so much so that he was out of breath.
He did not expect that his servant would still find excuses and push the blame on the puppet. This was really laughable.
An object actually had to bear the responsibility of regular people.
But before he could finish ranting, Jiang Ming spoke up. “The problem with the puppet is a bit serious.
He carefully looked at the puppet in front of him, and a contemplative look appeared in his eyes.
He concluded that this wooden puppet was definitely not an ordinary wooden puppet. There was probably a divine beast hidden inside.
At this moment, the puppet on the chopping board was smiling strangely at someone. However, there was a mark on its head, and it was completely dented, but the puppet’s expression did not change at all.
The people from the Zhang family all thought that this was an inanimate object, but Jiang Ming could tell that this puppet was probably not an inanimate object. Perhaps it was alive.
However, Xiang Tianqi did not understand what he meant. “What do you mean?” he asked, confused. “How can there be a divine beast here? How can a divine beast live in such a closed place? Moreover, I heard that divine beasts don’t care about organizations.”
“l agree.” Yuan Hehe quickly raised his hand. “Just like me, the divine beasts I know are completely unwilling to stay in these places. They all pursue freedom. Even a divine beast with a homebody personality is unwilling to stay with humans. Humans will invade the domain of a divine beast unless they are very outstanding.”
As he spoke, he sized up Xiang Tianqi and shook his head.
“Xiang Tianqi isn’t the type that divine beasts like at all. Jiu Zhu, you should be mistaken.’
Sikong Wuyuan had the same opinion as Jiang Ming.
“Yuan Hehe, there are some things that you’ve overlooked. I think Jiu Zhu is right. Let’s follow his judgment.”
“What do you think?” Yuan Hehe asked. “If it’s really a divine beast, what should you do?”
“Once the divine beast wants to stay in a place, it will be very difficult for it to come out. If it doesn’t do well, it will instead make the divine beast furious. When the time comes. All of us will be killed by the divine beast. When the divine beast is angry, it’s not something that ordinary people can withstand.” He was deep in thought.
“We can say that this divine beast has a good temper. You have to know that divine beasts will be a little strange no matter what. This one’s temper is considered good.”
“That’s a problem. Sikong Wuyuan, do you have any good ideas?”
Jiang Ming looked at Sikong Wuyuan with a bitter face.
He was not good at this kind of thing. Although he had read some ancient books, he did not know much. Sikong Wuyuan should know.
Unexpectedly, Sikong Wuyuan was also confused. “l really don’t know. It’s really difficult.”
Yuan Hehe was about to say something when he suddenly heard laughter.
This laughter was bone-chilling and carried a different meaning.
Xiang Tianqi could not help but shiver. “Did you hear anything strange?” he asked. “It seems to be from that puppet.”
Bai Meimei was so frightened that she trembled. She hurriedly entered Xiang Tianqi’s embrace and said, “Darling, you can’t speak nonsense. This puppet is inanimate. How could it suddenly come to life and laugh? This is probably just an auditory hallucination. Don’t think too much about it.”
She was originally afraid of these things, and after Xiang Tianqi said this, she felt that this room was even more sinister and did not want to stay any longer.
As she thought about it, she became more and more afraid.
She flung her sleeves and said, “Jiu Zhu, please forgive me. I want to leave first. You guys can stay here. I feel that this room is too strange. I really don’t want to stay here anymore.”
Before anyone could reply, she hurried toward the door.
However, just as she was about to open the door, she realized that it would not open.
She even knocked into the door uncontrollably.
Her forehead was split open, and blood flowed out. She was dumbfounded.
What kind of situation was this? She remembered that the door was still open, and they did not activate the mechanism to close it.
When Xiang Tianqi saw this, he quickly went forward and held Bai Meimei’s hand.. He asked with concern, “Honey, what’s wrong? Why did you suddenly b.u.mp into the door? Is your head okay?”
