"Grandpa, let's go back. My brothers will be worried if they can't find me."

"Your brother? Oh, I forgot to ask you just now, who are you to He Jinnian?"

"Who is He Jinnian? An An doesn't know him. I came here as a guest with Grandpa Chen and my fifth and sixth brothers."

"Grandpa Chen? So you are the grandson of that old guy?"

Xu Ru'an was confused by him. He was not the grandson of Grandpa Chen.

Just as he was about to explain, the old man seemed to have discovered something again. He suddenly squatted down.

He grabbed a handful of soil and put it to the tip of his nose to smell it.

"It's really a problem. It seems that this trip is just in time."

Xu Ru'an didn't dare to disturb him. He originally wanted to go back along the way, but he was afraid of encountering other strange things, so he could only wait on the side.

"Let's go back, little guy. I think if I don't go over, old man He Jinnian will get suspicious."

The old man took Xu Ru'an's hand and went back to the living room.

"An An, where did you go?���Do you know that your brothers are worried about you?"

"Sorry, Brother Wu, I just went for a walk in the small garden at the back and got lost. This old man found me and brought An An back."

"Old boy? Did you just go to the garden?"

"What? Didn't you, He Jinnian, invite me here? Is there anything wrong with me going to your garden for a walk?"

Xu Ru'an realized at this moment that He Jinnian, the old man's friend, was the owner of this house.

And he saw Xia Yifan again, standing next to Grandpa Chen.

"It's up to you, but we are all waiting for you, so you should at least tell us."

"Old He, forget it. You know him. He has a name for you. He is an old naughty boy with a lot of troubles. Who can control him?"

"Haha! Old Chen still understands me. Old He, stop talking nonsense and get to the topic of today. Where is the bead? Take it out quickly and let me see it!"

He Jinnian had no way to deal with him, so he ordered the butler to take out the box.

After the box was taken out, it was placed on the table in the middle of the living room.

The old naughty boy walked over, ignored the gloves the butler brought him, and opened the box directly.

There was a round emerald green bead in it. Just looking at it this way, it looks like a simple bead on the surface, nothing special.

This is what He Jinnian and the others saw, but two people at the scene saw a different scene from others.

One was the old naughty boy. What he saw was a bead emitting a faint green light, and this bead The bead exuded a biting cold, making people feel suffocated and oppressive.

The other one was Xu Ru'an. What he saw and felt was almost the same as that of the old naughty boy, but there were some differences. Although the bead was emitting green light, in the middle, Xu Ru'an could also see a faint red light. What was very strange was that Xu Ru'an could also smell a faint smell of blood from the bead.

Xu Ru'an was very uneasy, and he couldn't help but move closer to the side of the fifth brother.

The old naughty boy noticed Xu Ru'an's little action, and he tentatively asked Xu Ru'an:"Little guy, what did you see?"

"Huh?"

Xu Ru'an didn't understand why the old man asked him alone, when there were obviously other people here.

"My dear, isn't this bead magical? It glows and has a fragrance."

"Ah? Grandpa, this bead is emitting green light, but An An doesn't smell any fragrance? An An just thinks it stinks."

【Is there something wrong with my nose? I smell blood.

Xu Zerui and Xu Wanyu were both shocked. They didn't see anything glowing, and they didn't smell any smell from the beads.

"Little guy, you are really different. I guess among all the people present, you and I are the only ones who saw something different and smelled the scent emitted by the beads."

""Ah?"

Xu Ru'an looked at Grandpa Chen and his two brothers in disbelief. Seeing them looking at him with strange eyes, Xu Ru'an finally understood what the old man meant.

The old naughty boy closed the box and said,"He Jinnian, this bead is not something you can control. As for its origin, I don't know it yet. My advice to you is to return the bead, or let me handle it."

"Do you think this bead is dangerous?"

"That's right, this bead has already seen blood. If I'm not mistaken, it can affect a person's lust, control a person's thoughts, and use blood to nourish itself. It's an evil object."

"So what are you going to do about it?"

"I have my own way. It is not convenient to tell you this. Even if I tell you, you will not understand it."

"I can't make a decision about this thing, someone else asked me to keep it for them, wait a minute, I'm going to call and ask."

After saying that, He Jinnian went upstairs, probably to call someone.

"Ah!"

Xu Ru'an was suddenly picked up by someone, and the collar of his clothes was tightened around his neck, almost sending him to death on the spot.

Xu Wanyu saw that Xia Yifan actually picked up An An with one hand. An An's face was pale and she seemed to be unable to breathe.

He wanted to snatch An An back, but Xia Yifan changed his hand and held An An.

"Xia Yifan, what are you going to do to An An!"

"No, he looks wrong."

The old naughty boy's face darkened. Xia Yifan looked like he was controlled by something invisible.

At this time, Xia Yifan's eyes glowed red and he showed a sinister smile. He looked like a different person.

"Old naughty boy, what on earth is going on? Why did Xia Yifan suddenly become like this?"

"Maybe it was because of the influence of the bead."

"Why is he the only one who has become like this? Didn’t we all see the bead?"

The old naughty boy also fell into deep thought. He didn’t understand.

"Old naughty boy, you have to think of a solution! Didn't you bring him here? Hurry up and let him release our An An!"

""Xia Yifan, if you dare to hurt An An, our Xu family will not let you go."

Xu Zerui was extremely anxious. He pointed at Xia Yifan and warned him, trying to make Xia Yifan understand the consequences of hurting An An.

But it was obviously useless. When Xia Yifan heard the word"Xu family", his eyes suddenly widened, and his expression seemed to be worse than before.

"Humph! The Xu family? Damn the Xu family! Damn you all!"

"Oh no, he's going to go berserk!"

Xu Wanyu had already circled behind Xia Yifan without knowing when, and with a single slash of his hand, he knocked him unconscious.

Xu Wanyu quickly grabbed Xu Ru'an and held him in his arms.

""An'an, are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?"

Xu Ru'an felt a sharp pain in her neck, so she pointed at it.

Probably because she was strangled too hard, there was a red mark on her neck, which was particularly obvious.

After Xu Ru'an coughed a few times, she felt that she could speak well.

"Grandpa, there is a black thing on Uncle Xia's body, it's so scary"

"Hmm? Sure enough, the black energy entangled him, which aroused all the resentment and hatred in his heart, so his temperament was affected."

The old naughty boy opened Xia Yifan's mouth, fed him a pill, and then looked at Xu Ru'an with interest.
