After a short while, an ashen-faced Lei Qin returned with two guards in tow. The guards were carrying a big, heavy wooden case between them, which they then placed before Ji Fengyan.
"Grandfather…" Lei Qin refused to even glance at Ji Fengyan, even as she looked imploringly at Lei Kai.
"Open it." Lei Kai waved.
Biting her lips reluctantly, Lei Qin instructed the guards to open the big wooden case after much dawdling and procrastination.
Enclosed within the wooden case was another longish box. The two guards carefully lifted that box and placed it on a nearby table before slowly opening it.
