Chapter 1153: Chapter 1125: The Magical Door to the Heart Opens

Zheng Xu resisted the urge to take out the package from the kitchen cupboard and poke holes in it one by one for reasons he couldn’t understand, and fiercely threw it back. There were several tea canisters in this magical cupboard, which by their materials clearly showed that Chen Xiaoqian was quite the extravagant woman.

There were several ceramic tea canisters, and when he casually picked one up and looked at the signature, they were all antiques. From Chen Xiaoqian’s pretentious and lavish personality, it was evident she wouldn’t use replicas for her and her Erha, which meant that the Erha had things worth several house values placed together with the package.

Zheng Xu was also someone who played with antiques, and seeing these good items, he couldn’t help but take a few more glances. He picked a canister that was placed at the outermost and opened it to smell it, confirming that this was the Zhuangyuan tea buds Qian mentioned. He took it out and placed it on the table.

While the water was boiling, Zheng Xu took the opportunity to admire them one by one again. When he saw the tin tea canister inside, he felt a bit curious. Judging by its design, this tin canister should have been brought from abroad. Tin tea canisters are generally used to store premium tea leaves, and Zheng Xu was a bit curious about what exactly was inside.

Opening the tin canister did not release the scent of tea leaves, and when Zheng Xu reached out, he pulled out a cold object.

What is this...

"Zheng Xu, what’s taking you so long to make tea!" Qian came over with Akka, feeling puzzled when she saw Zheng Xu pulling at her tin canister.

"Why are you messing with that? There’s nothing inside."

The canister was brought back from abroad by Shui Xian for Qian. Qian had intended to use it to store tea, but she was too lazy to move it, so she conveniently left it there due to having too many tea canisters at home.

Zheng Xu pulled his hand out with a strange expression, his palm unveiling a small item wrapped in unopened plastic film.

When Qian saw the item, her face suddenly turned red. Oh my gosh!!!!

Although she had never used the ball once, she immediately recognized it. Wasn’t this from the box of gifts that Mai had given her?

It hadn’t even been opened before being hidden by Yu Minglang. Qian had looked everywhere at home but couldn’t find it. She never expected it to be discovered by a friend in such an awkward situation!

Akka didn’t understand why the atmosphere suddenly became awkward; she just saw Qian petrified, Zheng Xu also petrified, with a small ball resting on Zheng Xu’s hand.

The ball appeared to be metal, small and exquisite, with silver material exuding a noble shine. Akka watched it with curiosity and casually took it.

"What is this?" She had never seen it before.

Zheng Xu had seen the item numerous times, but deliberately maintained the same tone as Akka at the moment, playfully asking Qian.

"Yes, what is this?"

At this moment, Qian’s heart was in utter disarray.

If she were to post on a forum, she felt she might write something like: Help, my clueless husband put a friend’s indescribable item in the kitchen, and it was discovered by a visiting friend. Waiting online urgently!

Akka genuinely didn’t understand, and Zheng Xu was pretending not to understand. In this awkward moment, Qian used her extraordinary intellect to engage in her practice of bullshitting with open eyes.

"Oh, this was given to me by someone else; I haven’t used it yet. I’ll give it to you, Akka."

"What? Give it to me?" Akka looked at the object in her hand repeatedly, still unable to understand its profound use, foolishly rolling the small handle on top and asking, "Is this used to attach keys?"

It looked like a keychain ornament.

Hearing the silly girl being so naive, Zheng Xu stifled the impulse to continue facial nerve disorder and grabbed the item, intending to shove it back into the tea canister. If Akka were to attach this item to her keychain, her head-turning rate would be two hundred percent!

He intended to help relieve the situation, but seeing Akka unappreciative, she seized the item back arrogantly, glaring at Zheng Xu.

"Qian gave this to me, what are you doing!"

Qian had never given her anything before; this was a symbol of friendship!

"You’re such a fool; sooner or later, she’ll sell you while you’re still naive enough to help her count the money!" Zheng Xu said in an annoyed tone to the woman who didn’t appreciate help, and maliciously added, "You should tie a string around this and wear it on your big head to shrink your brain fluid — anyway, the original purpose of this item is to shrink and exercise some muscle somewhere, right, Chen Xiaoqian?"

Qian held back the headache, retorting. "I am such a pure woman; I don’t know what you’re talking about, but as for Mr. Zheng, I’m guessing you use it often?"

"Haha, I don’t have as heavy a taste as your Erha. Tsk-tsk, your kitchen has truly opened a door to my pure heart!"

Akka watched Qian and Zheng Xu exchange banter, feeling a bit envious, as she couldn’t understand a single word.

So... what exactly does the ball do?

This mystery remained buried in Akka’s heart until someday when someone used the symbol of her friendship with Qian on her, leaving her in tears.

She truly didn’t expect this kind of situation with Qian hiding it in the kitchen!

Despite Qian having mentally beaten the shameless Erha, responsible for all this, many times, facially she remained calm, engaging in banter with Zheng Xu and teasing Akka, not forgetting the important matter.

She casually turned off Akka’s phone, and before shutting down, she saw the caller ID master brother.

Ha-ha, not sure if that guy had been pummelled to resemble the second brother by Xiaoqiang?

Akka played with the beauty of Qian’s home, Zheng Xu brewed tea, and Qian stood by the window holding her phone, looking down, seeing Yu Minglang walking towards home, gesturing a victory sign upon spotting her, clearly delivering her justice.

Qian smiled slightly, but her brows were mildly furrowed.

Everything had progressed smoothly till now; with today’s event as an opportunity, Xiaoqiang’s illness would likely improve soon. Qian understood this was due to one person, someone she couldn’t avoid.

So, she flipped through the phone numbers and directly dialled another number.

The name Qio Yu Xuan flickered on the screen, Qian took a deep breath; she owed this person a sincere thank you.

Although the method to cure Xiaoqiang was realized by Qian herself, Qio Yu Xuan’s transmitted materials gave her confidence to set up this plan.

Qio Yu Xuan’s hint to pay attention to Nong Yao’s arrival also saved Qian a lot of hassle.

Emotionally and rationally, Qian should personally express thanks to him.

Qio Yu Xuan’s phone was busy, so Qian abandoned the call and opted to send a message.

She initially typed many words, expressing gratitude and offering him compensation for this cooperation.

After finishing, she felt it wasn’t good enough, looked it over again, deleting and rewriting it, deleting twice, and finally directly wrote these few words.
