Li Xinya was angry with Liu Xi and wanted to see how Liu Xi would react to her and Liu Xiao.

Liu Xi's reaction was to become even colder towards her.

Liu Xi had no desire to have anything to do with her brother's fiancée.

He wouldn't do anything to betray his younger brother.

Li Xinya then realized that she had made a mistake.

She chose to be Liu Xiao's fiancée, but pushed Liu Xi even further away.

Li Xinya tried every means to break off the engagement, but her family refused.

Mr. Li warned Li Xinya to stop causing trouble, or he would kick her out of the house and cut off her financial support.

Although the Li family appears to have only one daughter, Li Xinya, in reality, Li's father has several illegitimate children.

If Li Xinya continues to cause trouble, her father will abandon her as his daughter and take his illegitimate son home as a tool for a political marriage.

Li Xinya didn't want to lose her wealthy life, so she had no choice but to behave herself.

But she was unwilling to accept it and still wanted to break off the engagement.

She appears honest on the surface, but she's just looking for an opportunity.

As the youngest son, Liu Dong was the one Liu's father neglected the most.

Since Liu Xi refused to accept her father's arrangements and went abroad to study alone, her father began to cultivate Liu Xiao.

Since Liu Xiao is still in college, he arranged for her to intern at the company.

Everyone thought that Liu's father wanted Liu Xiao to take over the business.

Little did they know that Liu's father's best heir was Liu Xi, and Liu Xiao was merely a backup plan.

If Liu Xi returns, her father will still hand over the company to her.

He was very critical of Liu Xiao, always scolding her for not doing this or that well, which kept Liu Xiao in a gloomy and depressed mood.

Liu Tong is neither valued nor scolded, making her life much easier than Liu Xiao's.

To appease Liu Xiao, Liu Tong invited Liu Tong to go shopping at Panjiayuan.

One of Liu Xiao's hobbies is antiques, and he is very talented in appraising them.

If it weren't for wanting Liu's father's approval, Liu Xiao might have chosen archaeology as her major in college.

Nowadays, this can only remain an interest.

The two strolled casually around the stall, their eyes scanning the items on display.

They are not short of money, so they don't go into stores to buy genuine antiques, but instead look for bargains at street stalls.

Although, the chances of finding a bargain are extremely rare.

Sometimes, you can spend a whole day shopping and still not find a single genuine item.

But what they enjoy is the pleasure of searching for pearls among thousands of grains of sand, rather than actually buying something good.

Suddenly, Liu Xiao's gaze fell on a compass.

He stepped forward, picked up the compass, and asked, "How much is this?"

The vendor immediately began to boast about how good the compass was.

"This is the compass used by Li Chunfeng! A genuine antique..."

Liu Tong and Liu Xiao both chuckled.

Both of them were experts in antiques, and they could tell at a glance that the compass hadn't been around for very long.

Well, it's not a long time, but compared to Li Chunfeng's Tang Dynasty to modern times, this compass actually has some history.

It looks like it has a history of two or three hundred years, so it should be a creation from the Qing Dynasty.

Liu Xiao: "Ten thousand yuan at most. Otherwise, we won't take it."

The vendor didn't know the compass was a genuine antique; he just thought it was a high-quality replica or something.

He only spent two hundred yuan to buy this compass.

He made a huge profit from 10,000 yuan compared to 200 yuan.

The vendor chuckled and stopped using exaggerated language to promote his wares, readily accepting the 10,000 yuan transferred by Liu Xiao.

Liu Xiao picked up the compass and couldn't put it down.

Liu Xiao felt as if she was very familiar with this compass.

He opened the compass and touched something in a corner at the bottom.

Sure enough, he touched an inscription smaller than a grain of rice.

Upon closer inspection, it was the character "沈" (Shen). Liu Dong also noticed the character and said, "Could this be the compass passed down from Shen Zhureng?"

Shen Zhureng was a famous Feng Shui educator in the Qing Dynasty, the author of "Shen's Xuan Kong Studies", and the founder of the "Xuan Kong Flying Star" school.

When Liu Dong saw the words on the compass, this was the first person she thought of.

Liu Xiao shook his head and said, "I don't think this compass has anything to do with Shen Zhureng. It's just that its previous owner was surnamed Shen."

As he said this, he looked somewhat wistful.

Liu Tong blinked her eyes.

His gaze swept over the compass, then over his second brother.

Could the previous owner of this compass have been my second brother?

He was the reincarnation of his second brother and received the items he had used in his previous life.

Could that item possess some kind of mysterious power that would allow my second brother to regain his memories of his past life?
No wonder my elder brother was able to cultivate magical power and draw talismans.

Perhaps he was a member of the Xuanmen sect in his previous life.

Having found a bargain today, the two decided not to continue browsing and left Panjiayuan.

Liu Xiao was in a good mood. She took Liu Dong out for roast duck and then they went to see a movie together.

Fortunately, the two brothers looked very alike, so the ticket seller didn't mistake them for a same-sex couple.

The ticket seller muttered under her breath, "Such a handsome guy doesn't go find a girlfriend, but instead hangs out with his two brothers. What a waste."

She thought the two brothers couldn't hear her, but little did she know that they both had keen senses and heard everything she said.

The two brothers looked at each other and then laughed.

Liu Xiao: "Ah Qiu, you should find a girlfriend."

Liu Tong: "You're the older brother, so you should be the one to go first."

Liu Xiao: "I already have a fiancée."

Liu Tong chuckled: "Your fiancée..."

He shook his head and didn't say anything more.

Liu Xiao, however, understood.

His younger brother didn't like his fiancée; in fact, he probably didn't like her either.

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but turn his head to look over.

But the figure had already disappeared into the crowd.

Liu Xiao looked away, but her brows furrowed.

Liu Dong asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Liu Xiao: "I just saw someone who looked familiar, but I'm sure I don't know him."

Liu Tong: "Could it be someone I've met before?"

Liu Xiao: "Perhaps."

The two brothers went home after watching the movie.

Neither of Liu's father nor mother were home.

Both of them were very busy; Mr. Liu was busy with company affairs and social engagements.

Liu's mother was busy helping Liu's father with social engagements, busy taking care of her appearance, and busy trying to become a lady of the house.

Liu Tong and Liu Xiao were used to their busy schedules. They said goodnight to each other and then went back to their rooms.

In the middle of the night, Liu Tong opened her eyes and looked in the direction of Liu Xiao's room.

Although there was a wall blocking the light, Liu Dong could still feel the faint light coming from Liu Xiao's room.

The faint light enveloped Liu Xiao, and energy flowed into her body along with the light.

It poses no harm; on the contrary, it benefits Liu Xiao.

In his previous life, Liu Dong was a master of fantasy who had studied the soul.

After several years of cultivation, his strength had already reached a considerable level.

He had previously discovered that Liu Xiao's soul was incomplete, lacking a single part.

Now, this soul returned to Liu Xiao's body following that faint light.

After that, his soul was complete. (End of Chapter)
