Chapter 296: desire

Chen Xiang is ashamed of his timidity. He may never know what his retreat has changed.
At this time in the Chen family, Tang Qi just finished taking care of herself and came out of the bedroom.
She is wearing the latest clothes from Fashion Week, and the jewellery she wears on her hands is the same jewelry she once hesitated to buy.
Now, these have become her standard equipment.
To this day, she still feels like she is dreaming, so she has become Chen Dongsheng's wife and the head mother of the Chen family.
She is very satisfied with her life. The only minor flaw is probably that there are too many relatives in the Chen family, and most of them live here.
Although they live in another villa, they still meet when they eat occasionally.
Those people didn't respect her very much, which made her a little bit dissatisfied.
"Madam, breakfast is ready."
Steward Chen stood under the handrail of the stairs, saluting her respectfully.
Tang Qi raised her chin slightly and looked at the housekeeper Chen condescendingly, "Where is Dongsheng?"
"Patriarch has already used breakfast."
"Let me ask you where is he?" Tang Qi frowned unhappily and raised her voice. Since getting married, Tang Qi has rarely seen Chen Dongsheng's people.
She has never felt that there is anything wrong with it. A man, it is inevitable to go out to socialize, even her father does. Even before getting married, my mother told her in private that if you really find other women around Dongsheng, don't make trouble too ugly.
So far, she has not found such signs.
But yesterday she received another call from her mother. Although the mother didn't say anything on the phone, she implicitly urged her to give birth to the heir of the Chen family earlier.
Tang Qi is still very obedient in this respect, and she also feels that if she wants to gain a foothold in the Chen family, it is better to get pregnant as soon as possible.
However, people who can't see Chen Dongsheng, even if she has more ideas, it is difficult to implement.
In fact, there is one thing that Tang Qi didn't tell her mother, and it was somewhat difficult to tell. Although she and Chen Dongsheng are married, in fact, they have not had a relationship.
Before marriage, Chen Dongsheng didn't touch her because he respected her, and Tang Qi was proud of it for a while.
Before, Tang Qi could clearly feel Chen Dongsheng's desire for her, so she didn't care very much, but they are all married now, and this state seems to be something wrong.
Steward Chen lowered his head slightly, "Patriarch is in the basement, is the wife going over?"
Of course Tang Qi didn't know where the basement was, but since Steward Chen asked that, she wanted to come to a place where she could go, and simply nodded, "Take me to see."
Butler Chen took Tang Qi to the garden behind the main house. Behind the flower house in the garden, there was a downward-built staircase. Under the stairs was a black iron door. An iron ring.
Steward Chen went down the stairs, held the iron ring, knocked on the door three times, and the iron door opened quickly.
"Dongsheng." Seeing the person who came to open the door, Tang Qi jumped past Butler Chen and rushed towards her husband.
Chen Dongsheng reached out his hand to catch her, and asked in a gentle voice, "Have you had breakfast?"
"Not yet, you are not here in the morning." Tang Qi complained to him like a baby.
Chen Dongsheng apologized: "I'm sorry, I have been too busy these days. After I have been busy for this period of time, will I accompany you to play abroad?"
"You can't lie to me." Tang Qi's eyes lit up instantly.
Afterwards, she looked at the basement decor with some curiosity.
Although the entrance here is small, the space inside is not small. At first glance, it is at least more than 100 square meters.
The ground is covered with black stones, and the stones are carved with strange lines, which is very mysterious. In the center of the stone floor is a huge bronze tripod. Behind the bronze tripod is a white marble stone platform with cloud patterns carved on it.
Moreover, there is no light on here, all candlesticks are embedded on the walls, and candles that are as thick as arms are slowly burning.
I don’t know if it’s her illusion, it looks like an altar seen on TV.
"What's this for?" Tang Qi couldn't help asking.
"This is the place where my Chen family sacrifices to ancestors." Chen Dongsheng took her a few steps forward before Tang Qi could see clearly that there were many tablets at the end where the lights were not illuminated.
She glanced inadvertently and was shocked to find that the tablets were all with the same name.
"Dongsheng...what does this mean?" Tang Qi pointed to dozens of tablets engraved with Chen Dongsheng's name, shaking involuntarily.
Chen Dongsheng chuckled softly, "This is a family tradition, and every family owner has used one name, so it looks scary."
Although there was nothing wrong with listening to him, Tang Qi still felt panicked in this place. After seeing around here, I soon went back to the main house.
Watching Tang Qi leave in a hurry, Chen Dongsheng turned around and returned to the basement, while Butler Chen followed him quietly.
"How many people were sent away?" Standing next to the bronze cauldron, Chen Dongsheng suddenly said.
Steward Chen didn't hesitate, "Twenty-seven people were sent away, none of them matched. They found no abnormalities and have now returned to their respective homes."
"Abnormal..." Chen Dongsheng chuckled lightly, "Chen Xiang, the little guy is terrified."
Butler Chen lowered his eyes, his face looked cold and terrifying under the candlelight, "He is as sensitive as his father. Patriarch, do you need to deal with him too?"
"No, we will move on to the final stage immediately. There is no need to renew the incident. As long as he is safe, let him go."
Steward Chen nodded and said "yes".
"It will be the Midyear Festival in a few days. I have waited for so many years, but I have never been able to wait for her back. I hope that this year will be possible."
"Patriarch's wish will definitely come true." Steward Chen said, suddenly hesitating, "In fact, Miss Tang Qi is not the best choice."
"Of course she isn't." Chen Dongsheng's face was light, "Unfortunately, the best one was taken first, nothing else, it's just a skin anyway."
"If the Patriarch agrees, I can try it. After all, based on the blood relationship, I am also her grandfather." Steward Chen suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Chen Dongsheng with scorching eyes.
Chen Dongsheng seemed a little tempted, but he quickly shook his head and said: "She got something from Ashu. This time is different. Even if you can't deal with her easily, you can easily get into trouble. Although Tang Qi is a little bit close, it is not It works, so be it."
Steward Chen seemed disappointed and unwilling, but Chen Dongsheng, his master, refused, and he could only obey.
