Chapter 288 Energy Stone
Chapter 288 Energy Stone
......
Seeing that everyone was curious, Shen Ning opened the jewelry box with ease. Inside was an all-gold hollow cloisonné enamel eight-treasure Ruyi compass pendant.
This was specially made by a master invited by Gu Jichuan, who spent a lot of effort and money to make it.
The compass is hollow inside and filled with diamonds and gems. It shines brightly when it is shaken slightly, and looks very beautiful.
It was indeed grand and beautiful, and everyone couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Gu Yujiao couldn't help but say sarcastically, "Brother, is your salary enough? Don't pretend to be rich. You have to treat Changyan and Changsheng's wives equally when the time comes!"
Gu Jichuan was also annoyed by his sister, and his tone became cold. "Don't worry, I asked the master to customize three models. Except for the slightly different patterns, they are basically the same."
Wang Baozhu's eyes lit up. It turned out that she also had it. She felt a little relieved...
Seeing that Shen Ning was holding the gift and had no intention of taking it away, he was afraid that after Shen Ning accepted the gift, he would just put it in that corner.
After all, she was not sure whether the space could block the radiation of the "energy stone".
I could only bite the bullet and pretend to be innocent and said, "Shen Ning, why don't you bring it with you? Isn't this disappointing Uncle Gu's kindness? Don't you think highly of him..."
As soon as she finished her words, dissatisfied glances stabbed at her from all directions like knives.
The old lady of the Gu family turned even colder, "I agree that you stay to take care of Jiaojiao, but you should recognize your own identity. If you keep interrupting and stirring up trouble, don't blame me for kicking you out..."
Gu Yujiao was immediately dissatisfied again, and she held Wang Baozhu in her arms like a child, "Mom! I told you that Baozhu is like my own daughter in my heart! No one can drive her away!"
Shen Ning was too lazy to listen to their argument. He took off the beads from his neck and wrapped them around his wrist, then replaced them with the Eight Treasures Ruyi Compass Pendant.
Then he smiled at Gu Jichuan and said, "Thank you, Uncle Gu, I like this pendant very much..."
Seeing Shen Ning put on the thing, Wang Baozhu heaved a sigh of relief, and the joy in her eyes was almost uncontrollable...
Go ahead, go ahead. In a few days, Shen Ning will be affected by the energy stone hidden in the compass. This is the "clever plan" she has thought about for a long time.
I remember that in my previous life, near the outskirts of Beijing, at the entrance of a chemical factory, the workers were handling a discarded radioactive source working container. Due to improper operation, the radioactive material inside fell out.
At that time, a child passed by and picked up the radioactive material that looked like small glass beads and used it as a toy.
But within a week, my palms began to ulcerate and fester, and I felt dizzy, nauseous and wanted to vomit.
Immediately afterwards, the skin all over his body felt like it was burned by fire. He was in great pain and struggled miserably.
Even though it was later discovered that the source of the radiation was in that small energy stone, and the patient was amputated in time to prevent the spread of radiation in the body, it was still of no avail.
That child finally died in endless pain and suffering...
The radioactive source leakage incident caused a huge uproar at the time, and people were in a panic. All major newspapers reported the incident on their front pages for a month.
Wang Baozhu had a deep memory of this incident and knew all the details about it.
Therefore, the "clear-headed" Wang Baozhu sorted out the relationships between the people in the Gu family at the first opportunity, and worked with Mao Lin to carefully plan for a whole month.
First, he spent a little money to bribe a homeless man to pick up the "energy stone" before the child came.
She also asked the jewelry maker to seal the thing in the Eight Treasures Compass, and finally asked Gu Jichuan to give it to Shen Ning as a gift.
At this point, everything was a natural progression. Even if Shen Ning realized that he was feeling unwell and sent him to the doctor in time, it would only prolong his pain and add fuel to the medical experiment...
Thinking of this, Wang Baozhu couldn't help laughing.
Thinking of the horror of that thing, he stepped back and pulled Gu Yujiao and said, "Aunt, we have been out for long enough today, we should go back early..."
Shen Ning keenly noticed the change in Wang Baozhu's mood. He looked at her with some confusion, feeling that she was planning something bad.
Seeing that their goal had been achieved, Wang Baozhu didn't want to stay in the same room with Shen Ning at all, fearing that she would be affected by the radiation of the energy stone in the Eight Treasures Compass. She turned to look at Gu Changyan, "Brother Changyan, could you please take us back?"
Gu Changyan's attention was focused on Shen Ning and he didn't hear Wang Baozhu's cry at all.
Wang Baozhu suppressed her anger and pretended to be coquettish and said, "Brother Changyan, Brother Changyan, I am talking to you."
Listening to this wavy tune, Shen Ning got goose bumps all over his body. He couldn't help but imitate Wang Baozhu's tone, "Brother Changyan, Brother Changyan, Brother brother brother, if you don't know, you might think you are a hen that has become a spirit. Are you going to lay eggs..."
"puff......"
Gu Jichuan was amused by Shen Ning's vivid imitation. He found that Chang Geng's future wife only looked well-behaved, but she was very harsh with her mouth and had a bad temper.
Gu Changgeng couldn't help laughing as he touched the top of Shen Ning's head and rubbed it.
Gu Changyan's face suddenly darkened, and his tone became extremely cold, not giving Wang Baozhu any face at all. "Comrade Wang, I told you, you can call me by my full name, or you can call me Comrade Gu!"
Gu Yujiao immediately said in dissatisfaction, "Changyan, how can you talk like that? You have made the family so distant. Baozhu just wants to be close to you, like her own brother..."
But how could Wang Baozhu's little thoughts of a young girl in love escape the eyes of the Gu family.
Old Madam Gu snorted coldly, "What family? Chang Yan is right. The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, so naturally we should avoid suspicion. How can you call him "brother" if you are not related to me?"
"Mom!" Gu Yujiao stomped her feet angrily.
Although the old lady of the Gu family loved her daughter, she did not dare to take risks with her grandson. If she indulged Wang Baozhu, she was afraid that she would become the second "Wang Yuanshan".
Thinking of this, the old lady of the Gu family looked very ugly, "Mom, what mom? Okay, didn't you say you have to go back for a follow-up check? I'll go back with you and stay there for a few days. It just so happens that I'm not feeling well, so we can keep each other company."
Wang Baozhu's face froze and she cursed in her heart: This damn old woman is deliberately guarding against me!
However, he could only suppress his anger and followed Gu Yujiao obediently, not daring to say a word.
Seeing this, Gu Changgeng took Shen Ning's hand and said, "Grandpa and grandma, we have something to do this afternoon. I'll take Ningning home first."
Shen Ning also politely said goodbye to everyone in the Gu family. When passing by Gu Yujiao and Wang Baozhu, Wang Baozhu took a few steps back like a frightened rabbit, as if it was a conditioned reflex formed after being bullied by Shen Ning for many years.
But Shen Ning keenly noticed that Wang Baozhu's demeanor was different. It didn't seem like she was acting. It was as if she was really some terrible monster. She was completely different from the aggressive and trouble-making person she had just been.
Shen Ning snorted coldly, not quite understanding what was going on, and was too lazy to bother with her. She followed Gu Changgeng out of the Gu family's small western-style building...
Wang Baozhu watched Gu Changgeng protecting Shen Ning. When she looked at Shen Ning, love slowly appeared in her eyes. The resentment and jealousy in her heart almost turned into poison, corroding her completely.
But soon, she raised the corners of her lips again.
The corners of his lips curled up with a faint smile. Shen Ning will let you be proud for a few days. At most one month, your whole body will be festering, pus will flow, and you will become a pool of rotten flesh emitting this foul smell...
