Indeed it was true, Li Zhiyun, who was about 50 years old looked like she was just in her mid-30s and seeing her no one would ever believe that she was a mother to a girl who was more than 25 years old.
Much less rich women like Bo Wen, but even the women from many walks of life would want to look younger since it was a wish of every one of them.
"Aunt Wen, Mom woke up just a few days ago..."
But even fore Li Zhiyun could say anything, Han Xiaowen was the first to say it, but before she could say anything she was stopped by her mother who held her wrist tightly under the table.
Of course, no one other than Li Fen was able to see the action of the mother since she was the only one who stood behind them and the others were facing them in the front.
"Haha, Sister Wen, to tell you all the truth, I have been awake for a long time, I just wanted Wenwen to learn a few things which would help her in the future."
"If not for her Uncle, I might not have needed to suddenly show myself."
'What is mom saying?'
'Could it be that she was really awake all this while and just tested me this long?'
Thinking of this, Han Xiaowen felt sad, if what she had thought was true then what she thought about the magical talismans given to her by that Master was all lies.
But then thinking about what she had seen that day after placing the talisman on her mother's head, Han Xiaowen didn't know what she should believe in.
Meanwhile, although the reason which Li Zhiyun gave didn't rightly sate their curiosity, then there were many secrets that one didn't want to reveal to everyone.
And so the others didn't continue to ponder over it.
Since she was back now, it only meant that the company would earn more profits which in turn meant that it was them who would profit more.
The people continued to talk and discuss the future plans and left nearly half an hour later.
After sending them off now there were only three people left in the hall.
Han Xiaowen, her mother, Li Zhiyun and Li Fen.
"Mom, were you really awake for a long time?"
She asked, after what her mother had said, she was being constantly nudged by this thought all this long and had not even heard what they were discussing previously.
"SIGH"
Li Zhiyun sighed while shaking her head and turned to Li Fen who was also having a similar expression on her face as she stared at Han Xiaowen.
Normally a girl like Han Xiaowen won't be like this so as to not even able to properly think such a simple thing.
But right now she could not think things through, she had been thinking of it in an emotional way which stopped her from understanding what her mother wanted to do while saying such to her colleagues and business partners.
"Wenwen, how can you think that they would believe in something that had happened to us, and even if they did, do you really think that something like this would be able to be preserved under the greedy nature of us, humans?"
Hearing her mother's words, Han Xiaowen was as if she was struck by lightning.
Indeed it was true, given the nature of humans, there was no chance that they would want to let go of certain things, be it wealth, vanity, beauty and the most that one wanted was life.
And even if they were close to her and her mother, given what kind of magical things she had seen with her own eyes, it was rather that anyone would break such bonds and pursue those magical things which might help her live longer.
And the life-like example in front of her was her own mother, who looked no more than in her mid-30s even when she was close to being in her 50s already.
Thinking of this, Han Xiaowen gasped, indeed if she were to say that her mother was treated with the help of magic, then there was a high chance that anyone would believe it.
But even with that high chance, there were certain people who would believe it if they were to stumble to more of such incidents and the fact that Li Zhiyun appeared so much healthier and younger would definitely make anyone believe in it.
And that was because even they had money and would clearly know about the technologies which would help them appear younger, but alas there was no such thing.
Even if there was the slightest chance then they would surely continue to search for it and it would even cause harm to her and her mother.
And if people were to know that she still had some of those charms...
Thinking of this, Han Xiaowen tightly clutched onto the right side of her waist.
It was slightly puffed as if there was something in it.
It was none other than the Ghost Repellent charm and the Protection Talisman which she had carefully folded and placed in a pouch and tied to her waist.
These days, no matter where she went, Han Xiaowen would never remove the pouch off her waist,
Of course, there were certain situations where she would have to remove the pouch so as to not damage the magical charms.
COUGH, let's not think about those CERTAIN SITUATIONS!
"Yes, that's why I didn't tell anything about what had happened, even if they are close and friendly to us, we never know how one's heart will change given the greed of human nature."
Seeing her daughter's face turned ashen as if she had clearly understood what she meant, Li Zhiyun nodded and sighed.
"I am sorry mom, my mistake might have really caused us harm in the future."
Han Xiaowen apologetically said with her head low.
