The Feng Shui Treasure Appraiser

455: Chapter 455 All Gone”Sun Xiaoqian?”

Han Jingyang suddenly felt a wave of emotion.

It had only been three months since they broke up, yet hearing this name gave him a feeling as if a lifetime had passed.

Truly, the world is like a chessboard, with every game offering something new.

In the blink of an eye, several years have passed.

He didn’t want to listen at first, but after thinking it over, he nodded.

She was his first woman, after all; no matter what, it was impossible to completely forget her.

This, just like history, was a part of his life, regardless of whether it was good or bad, and a very important part at that. How could he possibly forget it completely?

Besides, the more one deliberately avoids such things, the harder it is to let go.

Conversely, only when one can face it with a heart as calm as a still lake has one truly let go and moved on.

He didn’t know if he had completely let go.

But he was genuinely curious about what kind of reaction Sun Xiaoqian would have if she saw him again.

After all, he was completely different now compared to who he was back then.

Three months ago, he had been graduated for over half a year, had nothing, was drowning in debt, and his hard-earned antique shop was on the verge of bankruptcy. He was at the lowest point of his life, seeing no way to turn things around in the short term—he was as destitute as one could be, with no future in sight.

But now, he had money, villas, luxury cars, connections, and prestige. He even had more than one woman, each as beautiful as a celestial being, and his future was truly boundless.

If Sun Xiaoqian knew about his current situation, would she regret it?

Han Jingyang suddenly felt curious.

Liu Jing chuckled, ”I knew you couldn’t forget her, no matter how much she hurt you.”

Han Jingyang coughed, ”I’m just curious.”

”Just curious?”

”It’s not like I could have any other thoughts,” Han Jingyang exhaled. ”She treated me that way; if I were still the same old me, I would definitely be devastated. But is there any need for the current me to dwell on such trivial matters from the past? If there is, it’s just a bit of a twisted desire for revenge—I want to see her reaction when she finds out I’ve made it. The more she regrets it, the happier I’ll be. Yeah, just that thrill of getting back at an ex, after all, she was the one who dumped me.”

Liu Jing burst into laughter, ”You’re certainly honest. Is this what they often call a ’satisfying plot point’ in web novels?”

”Haha, pretty much. But I don’t have such twisted tastes. For a super expert like me to do something so childish would be too embarrassing.”

”That’s true. Your emotions have always been stable. As long as no one touches your family or friends, everything else is negotiable. When you were dumped back then, you didn’t wail or act like your life was over; you got over it pretty quickly.”

”Glad you know that, so hurry up and tell me what she said.”

Liu Jing blinked, ”She asked me how you were doing.”

”And then?”

”Then I told her you weren’t doing very well. That your antique shop was poorly managed and had to be transferred, you couldn’t find a suitable job, creditors were pressing you hard, and you were forced to deliver food while studying for civil service exams, exhausted every day.”

”You really are…” Han Jingyang didn’t know how to describe her.

However, this was Liu Jing’s style. She had always been this eccentric, gossipy, and chatty person; it was only Shi Xiaoya’s arrival that turned her into the quiet person she was now.

In front of people she knew well, she was still her old self.

That was also quite nice.

Han Jingyang thought for a moment and pressed, ”What was her reaction? She didn’t mock me, did she?”

”Not at all.”

”Oh?”

”She asked me if you had found a girlfriend.”

”How did you answer?”

”I told her I was your new girlfriend. I said I was willing to share your joys and sorrows, and that I believed you would definitely make a comeback and had a bright future.”

”That part is true. What was her reaction when she heard that? She didn’t scold you?”

”Not at all. Although she isn’t that great of a person, she still has basic decency. After all, she was your ex-girlfriend; you wouldn’t date someone who curses at every turn,” Liu Jing chuckled. ”She told me to treat you well, saying you’re a good man, will be a good husband, and will definitely have a bright future.”

”That’s it?”

”That’s it. She left right after saying that,” Liu Jing blinked mischievously. ”What kind of follow-up were you expecting?”

Han Jingyang shook his head, relieved. He pulled Liu Jing closer and said with a grin, ”I want the follow-up between you and me.”

As he spoke, he slowly lowered his head and kissed her.

A light peck.

He pulled away.

Then kissed her again.

It would be a full year in a few days since they met. They had spent every day together this year and knew each other extremely well. Although they weren’t officially boyfriend and girlfriend, they spent more time together every day than most couples and communicated even more.

During the time his business hit rock bottom, it was Liu Jing who stayed by his side, guiding and encouraging him.

Although this woman always had a sharp tongue, looking back now, the times she left him speechless were actually quite sweet.

And thinking back now, this woman had long since revealed her feelings for him, but he hadn’t noticed at the time. Back then, his heart only had room for two things: first, Jiguang Zhai, and second, Sun Xiaoqian.

Who would have thought that after all the twists and turns, Sun Xiaoqian would leave him, Jiguang Zhai would change completely, and he would no longer be the person he once was, yet Liu Jing remained by his side, and in the same way.

This time, he couldn’t let this woman continue to silently accompany him without any result.

When flowers bloom, one must pluck them; do not wait until they fall and there’s nothing left to pluck.

Flowers bloom and flowers fall.

The relationship between Han Jingyang and Liu Jing officially entered a new level.

He took the initiative, not giving Liu Jing a chance to change her mind.

The next day at dawn.

Han Jingyang opened his eyes to meet Liu Jing’s bright gaze.

After looking at each other for a moment, he kissed her directly.

Early in the morning, facing such a beautiful woman like Liu Jing, who could resist?

He didn’t even need to look much; just one glance was enough to ignite all sorts of fantasies deep within him.

She was too beautiful.

Liu Jing’s looks weren’t bad to begin with; her features were beautiful. After obtaining the ”Stainless Body,” she had been cleansed from the inside out, becoming extremely healthy and incredibly beautiful, with almost no flaws to be found on her entire body.

Moreover, Liu Jing had a great figure—tall with long legs, and after her strength improved, she was even more toned and fit.

In short, one word—beautiful.

Flawless.

Liu Jing was also his third woman.

The first, Sun Xiaoqian, was a campus belle herself. When she was with him, she had just started college—naive but sweet.

The second, Shi Xiaoya, also had impeccable looks and figure; slightly shorter, but she had a unique charm.

And then there was Liu Jing, who was just right in every aspect, truly and genuinely impeccable.

Looking at it this way, although he had suffered a bit because of Sun Xiaoqian, it wasn’t without its gains.

And the women he found after leaving Sun Xiaoqian were more beautiful than the last.

One could only say that blessings often hide within misfortunes.

No one knows what anyone’s future will be like.

Of course, the past is the past.

What matters is seizing the present.

Han Jingyang subconsciously clenched his hands.

Liu Jing let out a soft ”mmm,” and playfully slapped his arm, ”It hurts~”

”I’ll rub it, and it won’t hurt anymore,” he grinned and leaned in.

Just as they were playfully teasing each other, his phone rang.

Annoying!

Calling so early in the morning.

So inconsiderate.

He didn’t want to answer, but the ringtone kept going relentlessly.

Damn it.

Han Jingyang climbed off Liu Jing’s mutton-fat jade-like body while cursing, reached out, picked up his phone, and glanced at it.

It was Zhang Zhiyang.

What important business could that Zhang fellow have?

He answered and said loudly, ”Old Zhang, it’s early in the morning, what’s the meaning of this?”

Zhang Zhiyang apologized with a smile, ”Brother, I really didn’t mean to, but this matter is quite urgent.”

”What is it?”

”A group of sneaky Japanese invaders has been discovered near Thousand Buddha Mountain. I’m short on manpower here, so I have to trouble you to make a trip.”

”How many people? What are their identities and objectives?”

”Not many, twelve people. Their objective is unclear, but they move quickly and are extremely stealthy. They are also very ruthless—they kill anyone who discovers them on the spot. So their true identities and objectives are definitely not ordinary. If it weren’t for a colleague of mine who had a special way of transmitting information and sent a message back before being killed, we might still know nothing. So, brother, I’m counting on you.”
