C85 (2/2)
Seeing him like this, I quickly averted my eyes and looked around, embarrassed.
I am just a mortal who has a good understanding of the human world. Listening to what Bai Hua said to me, you have encountered a lot of trouble recently, one thing after another, and everything almost took your life, including this time, General Manager Li had schemed against you!
After Qiu Baihe heard what I said, he immediately waved his hand, but I am not praising him, I just think that he has some kind of ability that surpasses what I know, if not, with Jin Weilong's lazy personality and proud personality, why would he listen to him obediently?
His words directly spoke of my sore spot. I mechanically nodded my head, feeling a little irritated inside.
Qiu Baihe seemed to have seen through my depression, he took out an incense burner from somewhere and placed it between the two of us. The incense burner released a burst of fragrance, which made people feel relaxed and happy, as though all of the accumulated grievances in my chest had been filtered out.
”Master, I heard from Bai Hua that you're an expert in cultivation. Can you help me this time?
After a moment of silence, I suddenly felt much calmer than before, but I still couldn't let it go, so I braced myself and said.
”Let's not talk about this for now. I have something to show you. After you've finished reading, think about whether or not to end this matter.”
After Qiu Baihe heard what I said, he sighed and shook his head, then took out a circular mirror from underneath the other palm-leaf fan and handed it to me.
I carefully took the mirror. I knew that this mirror was definitely expensive, but I wouldn't be able to imitate it just by looking at the workmanship. It had to be at least a thousand years old.
”Carefully examine the contents of the mirror. After you're done, consider whether or not you want to end this matter. You should be clear that many things that are good and evil are not necessarily as simple as what you see. ”
Qiu Baihe pointed to the mirror, then said indifferently. I looked at him blankly, feeling that there was some kind of hidden meaning behind his words, but I understood after hearing it.
Although he knew the literal meaning of his words, he still could not figure out what he was trying to say.
Thus, I lowered my head to look at the mirror. What surprised me was that I couldn't see my face through the mirror. The entire surface of the mirror gradually became turbid, as though it was another world.
I clearly saw myself walking out of the room and quickly running to the front to grab a woman's hand. After that, the woman suddenly turned her head and revealed a face, ”I” was immediately scared stiff and fainted.
The woman with a ghost face immediately helped me up, and at the same time, tore off the thing on my face. Only then did I realise that this was none other than Li Mei.
At that moment, I thought that I saw it in a dream. I didn't expect that it wasn't a dream but something that happened in reality.
