After a long time …

Chen Tianming slightly twitched his body, feeling so stiff that he couldn't move at all. Following that, waves of numbness followed. After a long while, Chen Tianming finally managed to relax his body and slowly stood up. Although it still hurt, Chen Tianming's heart still ached much more than the pain in his body.

He stood up with great difficulty and looked at his grandma quietly. His peaceful expression made it seem as if he was sleeping.

Having suddenly lost the only person closest to him, Chen Tianming seemed to have lost the whole world, his entire being seemed to have fallen into despair. However, his heart was strong. He knew that he couldn't do this, not because he was afraid of death, but because he knew that he still had his parents. Although he didn't even know what his parents looked like, he still wanted to find them, even if it was just a glance.

Gently … He gently covered his grandmother with the quilt. Chen Tianming made every movement as if he was afraid of waking his grandma up. Of course, in Chen Tianming's heart, he also wanted his grandma to wake up.

Chen Tianming took two steps back, knelt in front of the bed, and kowtowed three times to his grandmother, who had been dependent on him for twenty years. However, when Chen Tianming raised his head, he found a white embroidered box under his grandma's bed. Although the room was very dark, he could still see it by the dim light outside.

The brocade box had a very simple style, which was why Chen Tianming paid attention to it. There were a lot of things under Grandma's bed. After all, Chen Tianming's house was really small, and there wasn't enough space to pile up trash. However, in this place where there were so many things, it must be very special to be able to make people see it with a single glance.

Chen Tianming crawled two steps forward and carefully took out the embroidered box from under the bed. The small brocade box was not big, but it was very beautiful, and its surface was completely spotless. Clearly, Grandma had meticulously wiped it regularly, and on the lid of the brocade box was carved a dragon and phoenix sculpture. The four sides of the box were carved with four large, simple words, "One Heavenly Treasure".

Although he felt a little strange in his heart, Chen Tianming still wasn't in a hurry to open the box. The hand holding the box was warm and very comfortable, and the material of this jade like box was probably the priceless Yang Pi Warm Jade. No matter how he looked at it, Chen Tianming knew that this box was definitely worth a lot.

Chen Tianming was very clear on the family's situation. Every year, his parents would send him less than enough money to buy this kind of brocade box, which in turn would provide him with enough money to study and eat with a family. From this, it could be seen how extraordinary this beautiful and grand brocade box was. It definitely had an extraordinary origin. Normally, his grandmother wouldn't hide anything from him. After all, he and his grandmother were the only two people at home, so naturally his grandmother would say something to him.

However, the appearance of such a embroidered box at home still left the usually calm Chen Tianming at a loss for what to do.

Chen Tianming guessed what was inside the box, and carefully and cautiously opened it, letting out traces of white light. Chen Tianming was amazed, when the box was completely opened, the entire room was enveloped in a dim white light, just like the stage effect created by dry ice. It was like being in a fairyland, while Chen Tianming, who was enveloped in the light, felt as if he was soaking in a hot spring.

When Chen Tianming was a little lost in thought, the hazy light in the box gradually gathered up again, and finally wrapped around a seal. When Chen Tianming recovered from his shock, he picked up the seal in the box, and the seal was made from the same material as the box that wrapped around it, except that there were 12 monsters engraved around the seal. The seal's handle was a golden dragon, and this dragon carving was extremely meticulous, as if it was alive, it coiled around the entire seal.

Chen Tianming held the seal in his hand, not knowing what to feel. Such a treasure appearing in his home left him at a loss. At the same time, he also felt that the seal must be very important. Otherwise, with his grandma's personality, how could she not tell him?

After putting down the seal, Chen Tianming looked at the other items in the embroidered box. Inside the brocade box, besides the shocking seal, there was also a jade pendant and a letter sealed with wax.

Chen Tianming picked up the jade pendant and looked at it. The jade pendant in his hand was ice-cold. There was a dragon engraved on it, but no matter how he looked at it, a dragon with good carving skills was just not as impressive as the dragon on the seal. Chen Tianming did not suspect him, because he knew that the only letter left in the embroidered box, sealed in wax, would tell him the truth, because he could already tell that the note on the envelope belonged to his grandmother.

Chen Tianming picked up the letter and saw that the letter was written with the words "Tianming personally opened". His heart trembled, he didn't know what truth his grandma would tell him, but ever since he saw that extraordinary seal, Chen Tianming knew that things were not that simple.

With trembling hands, Chen Tianming carefully scraped off the wax on the back of the envelope and took out a slightly yellow piece of paper. But the secret was written. Grandmother used to be a scholar and a lady, so her handwriting was very delicate.

"Tianming, when you see this letter, you will believe that I have already left for a distant place. I did not die, but went to find your grandfather, so you need not be too sad. "Hehe …"

Seeing the first line, Chen Tianming's tears almost burst out. His benevolent grandmother was still acting like a child.

"Tianming, I actually wrote this letter a long time ago. I didn't take it out until today because … I'm afraid that I won't be able to write this letter to you in time. There are some things that you have to know, and if there's an accident because you don't know these things, your grandmother won't rest in peace even if she dies. "

Why should he be afraid to write this letter? Chen Tianming continued to look through the book, his heart full of questions.

"Granny knows you hate your parents and hate them for abandoning you. But you want to see your parents, too. Sometimes you see the envy in the eyes of other children who accompany them. Now what Granny is going to tell you is about your parents. Morning, grandma hopes you don't hate your parents, they have to leave you, sometimes things are not something you can control just because you want to. "Sigh …"

Chen Tianming was curious as to why his mother would tell him about his parents. However, there must be a reason why his grandma told him not to hate her parents. Furthermore, Chen Tianming really wanted to know about his parents abandoning him.

"Twenty years ago, your mother met your father, and the two of them fell in love at first sight. To be honest, I was rather happy to see your father.

At that time, your grandma's family was in the business, so they lived happily and never worried about money. That was the day someone knocked on our door in the middle of the night. That person was covered in blood, and your mother and I were immediately scared silly. But your grandfather was a war veteran, so he very calmly brought that person into the house. I believe you can guess that this is your father.

That night, not a single person in our family slept. Everyone guessed your father's identity, because your father was covered in blood, and it was inevitable that our family would think he was a bad person. Although we saved your father, none of us relaxed our guard against him.

Time passed quickly. Half a year had passed. Your father hasn't woken up at all, so our family gradually relaxed our vigilance towards him. Your father is indeed a spirited young man, and after getting rid of the blood stains, he is indeed a handsome young man. Hehe... And your mother, Sang Xue, is a girl. She hasn't been out of the house much in her life and has rarely seen anyone. Your mother must have fallen in love with your father during this period of time when she was always taking good care of him. "

Chen Tianming never thought that his parents would know each other like this. Of course, his father's body was covered in blood, which made Chen Tianming very curious about his father's identity. Chen Tianming wondered what happened to his father at that time.

"On this day, it was already winter back then. It had already been a full seven months since your father came in after saving him. Your father woke up on this day, but he was still very weak. Your mother happily called your grandfather and me out, saying that your father had woken up, and your grandfather immediately became vigilant. After all, your grandfather had experienced many battles before.

We came to your father's bed, and he insisted on getting up and thanking us. We couldn't help but get him up, but your father immediately fell on his knees in front of our family. I was kind enough to help him, but your father insisted on not getting up. Later we found out that your father was the only son of an ancient family, and that the existence of such a family was inconceivable. I still can't help but feel shocked when I think about it! "

What kind of family could make someone like Grandmother feel so unfathomable? One had to know that his grandmother was a lady from a wealthy family. Although she never went out, the books she read were all calculated with a basket. It was basically possible for her to not go out and know the affairs of the world. Even his grandmother was surprised. This made Chen Tianming more curious about his father.
