Chen Xiao was a Feng Shui master before his death. He changed his fate to save his master, but died of old age.
When he opened his eyes, he came to a world of immortal cultivation where there...
After resolving the expansion issue, Chen Xiao felt half relieved.
He asked Liu Lang to put away the blueprint and said, "You happen to have time now, come with me to Qianxiufang."
Liu Lang paused and looked at Chen Xiao hesitantly: "Teacher, why are you going to Qianxiufang?"
Chen Xiao thought he wanted to run errands for him, so he smiled and said, "There is something I want to discuss with Mu Jinrong. If everything goes well, my advancement to the Golden Core Stage will depend on this order from Qianxiufang."
Chen Xiao seldom takes the initiative to talk to people about Feng Shui. Normally, he is more accustomed to being invited.
If Chen Xiao had not been unwilling to wait, this action would not have taken place.
Liu Lang has always been concerned about Chen Xiao's progress in cultivation. Hearing this, he was very moved. A wavering expression flashed across his face, and he looked embarrassed.
This surprised Chen Xiao greatly. You know, Liu Lang would never miss such important observation. This reluctant expression was very rare.
"What's wrong? Do you have something important to tell me?" Chen Xiao asked.
Liu Lang stammered, "No... not..."
Chen Xiao frowned and said, "If the discussion goes smoothly, this Feng Shui bureau of Qianxiufang will be a rare case. If you don't have something important to do, you must go with me. If you have something to say, just say it. It's not like you to hesitate."
When Liu Lang saw Chen Xiao was angry, his expression changed immediately, but he really couldn't say anything about this matter. He opened and closed his mouth but didn't know where to start.
Du Rong, who just came in from outside, happened to know the inside story. He laughed and said, "Master, the second young master is shy and he is embarrassed to say it. I will tell you."
"What's going on?" Chen Xiao turned to Du Rong in confusion.
Liu Lang's face suddenly turned red. Du Rongren smiled and said, "It was Miss Ye Jinglan from Qianxiufang. She came to visit in person after hearing the news that Liu Lang had returned. The Second Young Master and Miss Ye were both a little excited to see each other again."
Chen Xiao said puzzledly: "This is not bad, why should I be embarrassed to say it?"
Du Rong coughed lightly and said, "There's nothing wrong with it. It's just that Miss Ye expressed her love to our Second Young Master, but the Second Young Master was so scared that he drove her back."
Chen Xiao was stunned after hearing this turn of events.
"What?" He scratched his ear. "Uncle Rong, are you sure?" He looked at Liu Lang in disbelief. "Why do I remember that you two were childhood sweethearts, and he was the one who had a one-sided love for her before. Now the girl has finally changed her mind. This shouldn't be a bad ending, right?" Chen Xiao was so surprised that he even spoke English.
"Bai de...what?" Du Rong looked at Chen Xiao in confusion.
"Well - what I mean is that the two of them are in love with each other, which is a happy thing for everyone. Liu Lang, why are you not only unhappy, but also kicked Ye Jinglan out?"
The blush on Liu Lang's face faded and gradually turned pale. He said softly: "It is precisely because we have known each other for so long that I know this is not her true intention. She just wants to repay me with her feelings. Jinglan is different from me. She has her own circumstances and works hard. She should have a smooth road ahead. If she rashly does something that is not out of her heart and is swayed by the idea of repaying a favor, it will only hinder her from achieving enlightenment and ultimately harm herself."
Liu Lang's eyes were particularly gentle when he talked about Ye Jinglan, but at the end a hint of bitterness appeared at the corners of his mouth.
Chen Xiao then remembered that the two people in this world of immortal cultivation were insisting on getting together despite saying one thing and thinking another, and the only consequence would be that both of them would be stuck in a stalemate, or even a dead end. There was absolutely no other possibility.
However, Chen Xiao felt that Ye Jinglan was resolute and decisive, and was also very smart, and was not someone who would joke about his and Liu Lang's future. Perhaps, this time, Liu Lang was really too worried and overthinking.
Putting this thought in the bottom of his heart, Chen Xiao listened to Du Rong continue: "Miss Ye came a few more times later, wanting to talk to him again, but the second young master avoided her. This time, the head of the family asked him to go to Qianxiufang with you. Isn't this offering himself to you?" After saying that, he gave Liu Lang a teasing look.
"So that's how it is." Chen Xiao said with a straight face, "Whether you want to go with me or not, it's up to you to decide."
In the end, reason overcame the urge to escape, and Liu Lang followed Chen Xiao into the gate of Qianxiufang as if he was going to the battlefield.
As soon as she saw Chen Xiao, the waitress in charge of reception smiled and said, "It turns out that Master Chen has come to visit. What kind of clothes do you want to order this time? We have the latest styles of long dresses, short shirts, and underwear. This time, the experienced master has personally designed them."
The nostalgic Chen Xiao is probably the most popular customer of all shops. As long as they get his approval, he will definitely come back.
Every once in a while, Chen Xiao would come to Qianxiufang to buy new clothes, shoes and socks.
After he became a regular customer, he was recommended the customization service and learned that Qianxiufang's customization service was all-encompassing, from ceremonial Taoist robes to headscarves and underwear, all of which could be tailor-made.
Yes, what made him excited and tears welled up in his eyes was that he finally put on a pair of underwear that was close-fitting and extremely comfortable.
It has to be said that in terms of the advancement of inner clothing, Yingxian Island is a hundred times more advanced than Hanshan City!
Chen Xiao smiled and waved his hand: "I am not here to order clothes today, I want to see the owner of the shop for something. I wonder if the owner Mu is here, is it convenient to see guests now?"
Today, Chen Xiao's reputation in Yingxian Island is at its peak. He has reached a position where he can have equal dialogue with the leaders of the five major forces. Meetings with him are very common and he does not need to go through any extra trouble to arrange anything.
The waitress nodded and said with a smile, "The master is here. He happens to be free right now. Please come in, Master Chen."
Chen Xiao nodded at her politely and walked towards the back of Qianxiufang.
After Chen Xiao walked past, the waitress noticed Liu Lang who had been standing behind Chen Xiao.
The girl's eyes widened in surprise, and without saying a word she turned around and ran towards the backyard where the disciples lived.
Liu Lang was unable to stop him and pinched his nose in pain.
The waitress did not lie. Mu Jinrong was indeed free. Upon learning that Chen Xiao was visiting, she welcomed him in with a smile on her face.
"Master Chen, you have come to visit me despite your busy schedule. I am deeply honored."
Chen Xiao smiled and said, "Master, you are joking. I have come here several times but it was not a coincidence. You were either away or busy. You are the real busy man."
The two exchanged a few pleasantries. Mu Jinrong glanced at Liu Lang, who was sitting upright, with a smile on her face, and said meaningfully, "Master Chen, did you come here this time to tell me something good?"
Chen Xiao smiled faintly and said, "It is indeed a good thing for the abbot."
When Mu Jinrong heard this, she knew that Chen Xiao did not come here for the matter of Liu Lang and Ye Jinglan.
In just three years, Chen Xiao's status rose rapidly at a speed that made Mu Jinrong astonished. She even felt that with her own knowledge, she could not guess how far this young man's future would develop.
Therefore, when she learned about the changes in Ye Jinglan, whom she had been training as her successor, she not only did not stop it, but was happy to see it happen.
