My Antique Mirror Is A Portal To Another World-Chapter 52: Spying, Eavesdropping

At the same time, when Feng Xiyan was praying, the antique mirror on Bai Hanyun’s bedside table began to glow.

Shielding her eyes from the sudden light, Bai Hanyun asked with a hint of annoyance, "Can you give me a warning before you try to blind me?"

Right then, Feng Xiyan’s voice echoed in her bedroom.

"Xiyan thanks Heaven for the blessings bestowed upon the Feng Army and the citizens of Xiqiang City. I know that asking for more is presumptuous, but the city wall was damaged during the last war against the Yuezhi Tribe and urgently needs repair."

"Therefore, Xiyan begs Heaven to grant us quicklime to restore the wall. In return, I shall build a temple to offer my prayers and devote myself to protecting it."

When the final words faded, the blinding light slowly dissipated.

Sitting on the bed, Bai Hanyun looked at the antique mirror thoughtfully. After a few seconds of thought, she narrowed her eyes and asked, "Was that Feng Xiyan’s prayer to you?"

The mirror flashed twice in response.

That confirmed it for Bai Hanyun that the antique mirror had a spirit and could understand her.

As she studied it, Bai Hanyun thought, ’I have heard from grandpa that antiques can give birth to spirits. Since this antique mirror seems to have a spirit, it must be extremely old. I wonder where it came from—and why it’s helping Feng Xiyan.’

Couldn’t find the answer to her questions, Bai Hanyun decided to observe the antique mirror more carefully from now on.

Helping Feng Xiyan was, after all, helping herself. If not for the antiques he sent, she wouldn’t have had the confidence to challenge Bai Yansheng for her grandfather’s inheritance.

After a moment of consideration, Bai Hanyun asked, "Do you want me to give Feng Xiyan what he wants?"

The mirror flashed twice again as a response.

When Bai Hanyun saw this scene, a hint of certainty flashed in her eyes. ’I knew it. This antique mirror was definitely connected to Feng Xiyan somehow. Otherwise, why would it keep helping him?’

Although she was certain about the connection between the antique mirror and Feng Xiyan, she didn’t know whether this spirit was a good thing or a danger waiting to unfold, nor did she know the reason for it to help Feng Xiyan.

With caution in mind, Bai Hanyun said, "I can help Feng Xiyan. But what will you give me?"

She waited for a while after asking. A few minutes passed before the antique mirror glowed once more. When the light dimmed, what appeared on the surface of the antique mirror shocked her.

Bai Hanyun grabbed the antique mirror and took a closer look at what was shown on its surface.

Reflected on the antique mirror’s surface was the living room of the Bai family’s old villa. Sitting on the couch, Bai Yansheng was talking with Qian Weina and Bai Li.

Watching the three of them talking with serious expressions but unable to hear anything, Bai Hanyun glared at the antique mirror and asked, "What’s the point of showing me this if you won’t let me hear what they are saying?"

As soon as she said this, the antique mirror glowed faintly, as if in protest.

Rolling her eyes at it, Bai Hanyun said, "I don’t care. If you don’t let me hear what they are saying, I won’t do what you ask."

After she threatened it, the antique mirror glowed brightly for a second. The next moment, Bai Yansheng’s voice echoed in Bai Hanyun’s bedroom.

"Wife, you don’t need to worry about this matter. I have my plan."

Hearing this, Bai Hanyun focused her attention on what was happening in the Bai family’s ancestral house.

Unaware that Bai Hanyun was spying on them, Bai Li asked, "Father, are you sure that person won’t leave any traces?"

Bai Yansheng took a sip of tea and replied, "Li Li, you don’t need to worry. Father will take care of everything. All you need to do now is find a way to meet CEO Gui. If you can become his wife, dealing with Bai Hanyun will be as easy as crushing an ant."

Bai Li nodded at his words and said, "I heard that CEO Gui loves antiques, and there is an auction in two days at Gu Bao Auction House. If I can attend, I might be able to meet him there."

Bai Yansheng pondered on Bai Li’s idea for a moment before replying, "Father will find a way to get the auction invitation. Just focus on preparing and be ready to go to Shang Du City in two days."

Bai Li’s eyes lit up at his words. She smiled and said shyly, "Yes, Father. I will do my best to catch CEO Gui’s attention at the auction."

Hearing this, Bai Yansheng laughed heartily. "Good! Li Li is indeed my good daughter!"

Just then, the antique mirror shone dimly for a second, and the image on its surface faded away.

Seeing this, Bai Hanyun put the antique mirror down on her bed and muttered, "I wonder who this CEO Gui is. He should be someone with a strong background if he could make Bai Yansheng and Bai Li go to such lengths to win him over."

Bai Hanyun frowned slightly and thought, ’Based on Bai Yansheng and Bai Li’s conversation just now, if they manage to attract this person called CEO Gui’s attention, I could be in trouble. Since this person might pose a threat in the future, I need to find out who he is.’

Having made her decision, Bai Hanyun picked up her phone and found Yu Tianshuo’s contact. After hesitating for a few seconds, she pressed the call button.

Bai Hanyun didn’t have to wait long before the call connected.

"Hello?"

Hearing Yu Tianshuo’s calm voice, Bai Hanyun said, "Hello, Master Yu. This is Bai Hanyun."

Sitting in the living room of the Yu family’s ancestral house, Yu Tianshuo lowered the volume on the television and smiled, "Miss Bai, what a pleasant surprise. Do you have something interesting for sale today?"
