381: Chapter 381 Ming Hongwu Period Hetian Jade Carved Dragon Plaque

"Name: Ming Hongwu Hetian jade carved dragon plaque."

"Grade: Grade 6."

"Attribute: Protection +5."

"Skill: None."

Grade 6, protection attribute maxed out, no skills.

He didn't think much of it, because his family already had them, and more than one, all of which were better.

So, this one could be sold for money.

Han Jingyang handed the jade plaque to Yang Zhizhong: "Old Yang, just hang it on your body or keep it in your pocket. It will automatically defend you when you encounter an attack, so you don't need to worry. If you ever notice this plaque losing its luster, or cracking or shattering, don't hesitate at all—come straight to me, as fast as you can. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't survive."

Yang Zhizhong nodded heavily.

Han Jingyang added: "Don't look down on this plaque just because it doesn't look like much. Let me tell you, it's extremely practical and can definitely save your life in a critical moment. I haven't tested it against a designated marksman rifle, but it can handle a few close-range shots from small-caliber bullets without a problem. It can also defend against metaphysical attacks. So, not only is it not cheap, but it's also a good item that money can't buy. Under normal circumstances, I would never sell such a good item to someone I just met, but your actions moved me, understand?"

Yang Zhizhong gripped the jade plaque tightly: "Mr. Han, don't worry, I understand. I will forever remember your great kindness."

"Then go ahead and get busy. Transfer the money to my account later—ten million, exactly."

Yang Zhizhong nodded in agreement, took one last deep look at his daughter, and led Cu Mawei and the others away.

Jiguang Zhai quieted down.

Several women silently sized up the newly arrived Yang Yujie.

This made Yang Yujie feel quite uneasy. The young girl had disregarded everything to save her father, throwing caution to the wind, but only now did she realize the relationship between these fairy-like women in the room and Han Jingyang.

Were they Han Jingyang's women?

Or employees or bodyguards?

Or perhaps relatives...?

Even though she was inexperienced, the young girl knew that such matters were often not as simple as mutual consent.

Therefore, under the gaze of the few women, she felt increasingly anxious.

Han Jingyang coughed: "Alright, stop scaring her. Xiaojie, let me introduce you. This cool, long-legged chick carrying a big sword is Liu Jing; she's my girlfriend, and her swordsmanship is fierce. That curvy little enchantress is Shi Xiaoya, also my girlfriend. Those four fairy-like beauties over there are Zou Shuying, Zou Handan, Zou Rushuang, and Zou Feixiang; they are my maids. Well, they are a bit special, but you'll understand later."

As he spoke, he turned to Shi Xiaoya and Liu Jing: "Neither of you is allowed to be jealous, and neither of you is allowed to bully her, or I won't forgive you."

Then he beckoned to Yang Yujie: "Come here, let's have a good talk about your future."

Yang Yujie instantly thought of relations between men and women, feeling both ashamed and indignant. Although she had agreed to be Han Jingyang's woman, to be this impatient...

However, thinking of what had been said before.

And thinking of the scene where Han Jingyang threw himself in front of her father to block the bullets.

She could only bite her lip, wring her fingers, and follow Han Jingyang into the back room.

Han Jingyang pointed to the sofa: "Sit down, don't be afraid. I won't do anything to you right now."

Yang Yujie sat down cautiously, and just then saw Zou Handan bring in tea and place it in front of her. She quickly stood up to thank her: "Thank you, Sister Handan."

Zou Handan flashed a big smile and then suddenly disappeared.

Yang Yujie let out an "Ah!" scream, jumped up, and pointed at the spot where Zou Handan had just vanished: "She, she, she..."

Han Jingyang chuckled: "She is a Flower Fairy and has some special abilities. No need to be surprised."

"A Flower Fairy?"

"Yes, although it's not the Flower Fairy from your understanding, it is definitely a proper Flower Fairy, not some crooked or evil thing."

"The four of them...?"

"All four of them are."

"What about Sister Xiaoya and Sister Liu Jing?"

"They are normal people."

"But I... I think they are on par with the four Flower Fairies, especially their skin. It's too perfect, better than the skin of any beauty I've ever seen, like it was carved from top-quality mutton fat jade."

"You will have the chance to become like that in the future."

"Really?" Yang Yujie was instantly pleasantly surprised.

Han Jingyang nodded: "But it depends on how you behave."

Yang Yujie answered without hesitation: "I will definitely behave well."

Han Jingyang smiled.

Sure enough, no woman could resist the temptation of becoming more beautiful.

Many women would sell themselves for a set of cosmetics, let alone a method that was countless times healthier and more effective than cosmetics.

If female celebrities knew about this ability of his, he could be a groom every night and sleep with the entire entertainment industry.

Female celebrities value their figures, looks, and skin the most; otherwise, there wouldn't be so many plastic surgery monsters and Photoshop monsters.

Ordinary women are the same; as long as they have the conditions, they will definitely pursue being whiter and more beautiful.

Which woman doesn't want to have perfect skin? None! Everyone wants it!

Even Yang Yujie, who had just come of age, was no exception, especially since she had observed Liu Jing and Shi Xiaoya's skin up close and knew exactly how beautiful that skin was.

So, Han Jingyang just started the topic, and the young girl immediately took the bait.

She really was just a young girl.

After teasing the young girl, Han Jingyang said seriously: "Jokes aside, you need to be clear about your current situation. It's very dangerous. It's fine when you're by my side, but once you leave, no one can guarantee what will happen. Even if you go to the Capital, you can't be 100% safe."

Yang Yujie instantly regained her focus: "Then, then what should I do?"

"One, stay by my side forever."

"This..."

"Two, carry more defensive items."

"Ah?"

"Three, become stronger."

"I want to become stronger," Yang Yujie made her choice without hesitation.

Han Jingyang was overjoyed inside, but his expression remained grave: "Becoming stronger can indeed solve the problem fundamentally, but the efficiency is too slow. Even if you start cultivating now, it will take at least five years to possess a certain level of combat capability. There is still a long way to go before you are truly strong—ten, or even twenty years is possible."

Yang Yujie tightened her small face seriously: "I'm not afraid, even if it takes thirty years, I'm not afraid. I will definitely persevere!"

Han Jingyang praised her: "Not bad, it's good to have this confidence. You must have self-confidence when cultivating. If you are indecisive yourself, let alone cultivating, you won't even be able to handle daily work and life."

Yang Yujie nodded heavily: "I've been like this since I was a child. As long as I want to learn something, I will put in 100% effort."

"Hmm, did you apply to the Central Academy of Drama?"

"Yes."

"Why?"

"I like acting and want to be a big star," Yang Yujie said, then suddenly lowered her voice: "If, if Master doesn't like it, I can retake the year and reapply to a non-art school. My academic grades are pretty good; if I retake a year, I can definitely pass the first-tier university cutoff."

Han Jingyang waved his hand: "No need to retake the year. I don't mean to interfere with your life. On the contrary, I would rather see you grow up healthily and freely. You are still young, there's no need to lock yourself by my side this early."

"But, I promised," Yang Yujie became anxious instead: "I can't go back on my word!"
