After letting out a soft "humph," she shifted her gaze away and instead focused on Chu Qinghe.

When her gaze fell upon Chu Qinghe's handsome face, Shuimu Yinji immediately felt that much of the gloom in her heart had been dispelled.

It perfectly illustrates what it means to "beauty soothes the soul".

Seeing the reaction of the jellyfish Yin Ji, Bai Xiaosheng's smile deepened.

After gently shifting his gaze back to Chu Qinghe, Bai Xiaosheng said slowly, "Due to my status, it is not appropriate to send a formal invitation in advance. I hope Young Master Chu will not take offense."

Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe said softly, "The invitation is a small matter, but I did not expect that the old gentleman would withdraw the favor so quickly."

Hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Bai Xiaosheng sighed and said, "Yes! If possible, the longer these two favors from Young Master Chu are kept, the more useful they might become. Using them now would indeed greatly diminish their value."

As he spoke, Bai Xiaosheng glanced at Sun Baifa beside him.

Noticing Bai Xiaosheng's gaze, Sun Baifa rolled his eyes but remained silent.

Taking in the reactions of the two, Chu Qinghe glanced at Sun Baifa's face.

A few breaths later, Chu Qinghe slowly raised his hand, bending the other three fingers and slowly lowering his index and middle fingers onto the table.

As the finger fell from the air, a hand immediately reached out from the side, bringing the wrist right under Chu Qinghe's two fingers.

Seeing this, Qu Feiyan and the other women finally understood, vaguely realizing why Bai Xiaosheng and Sun Baifa had come to their door.

For a moment, all three women's eyes were fixed on Sun Baifa, their eyes filled with curiosity.

After about five breaths, Chu Qinghe, having confirmed Sun Baifa's condition by taking his pulse, chuckled softly and then slowly withdrew his hand.

Seeing this, Sun Baifa, who had previously looked nonchalant, couldn't help but look at Chu Qinghe with a hint of nervousness in his eyes.

Bai Xiaosheng also stared at Chu Qinghe without saying a word.

Meeting their gazes, Chu Qinghe did not rush to speak.

Instead, he looked at Bai Xiaosheng and asked, "Senior, did you come here this time to make a deal or to discuss business?"

Hearing Chu Qinghe's somewhat intriguing question, Bai Xiaosheng asked in confusion, "Does Young Master Chu mean reconciliation?"

Chu Qinghe said softly, "If it's a transaction, Senior Sun's injuries can be healed, but in terms of the favor owed for the two pieces of information you gave me before, it might not be enough."

After pondering for a few moments, Bai Xiaosheng asked, "How's the business?"

Chu Qinghe smiled gently and said, "If it's a business matter, based on the idea that's forming in my mind right now, I can heal Senior Sun's injury, but you might still have to do him a favor."

Hearing what Chu Qinghe said, Sun Baifa across from him pondered for a moment and then asked, "What's the difference between these two?"

In Sun Baifa's understanding, Chu Qinghe's two statements were essentially the same.

The illness can be cured, but it will cost extra.

Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe smiled and said, "There's not much difference. The general meaning is the same. The main thing is that we are guests, and when facing two seniors, it's better to be a little more refined in our choice of words."

Cultured people, after all! Making things mysterious makes them seem more profound and unfathomable.

Upon hearing this, Sun Baifa couldn't help but roll his eyes, clearly speechless at Chu Qinghe's explanation.

However, Bai Xiaosheng, who was standing to the side, smiled and said, "Young Master Chu's way of putting it is quite interesting. This is the first time I have heard the word 'business' be understood in this way."

After a pause, Bai Xiaosheng continued, "However, I can understand the business aspect, but isn't the previous transaction, where two favors were exchanged for Young Master Chu's medical intervention once, enough?"

Chu Qinghe shook his head and said, "It was enough that you didn't come before, but now that you have, it's not enough?"

Bai Xiaosheng seemed intrigued and said, "Oh? I'd like to hear more about it."

Chu Qinghe smiled gently, then pointed to the jellyfish Yin Ji beside him.

Seeing Chu Qinghe's actions, Bai Xiaosheng was slightly taken aback, then chuckled and said, "Indeed, if I hadn't learned that Palace Master Situ's appearance had been restored, I would have thought that Young Master Chu possessed such extraordinary medical skills. In a way, I could say that I owe Palace Master Situ a favor, and I could also say that I owe Young Master Chu a favor, which would offset one of them."

"However, given the relationship between Young Master Chu and the Eastern Cult Leader, this favor should be enough for the last matter."

Chu Qinghe smiled and said, "What you say is absolutely right, senior. Given the relationship between Dongfang and me, it is only natural that I could heal Senior Sun's injuries. So what I said might not be enough."

Bai Xiaosheng looked at Chu Qinghe with a puzzled expression and asked, "What do you mean by that, Chu Qinghe?"

Chu Qinghe smiled, revealing his neat, white teeth, and said, "When it comes to treating illnesses, there are definitely comfortable and uncomfortable methods. If it's a transaction based on personal relationships, as long as the illness is cured, that's fine. However, the techniques or the feeling during the treatment process might be much worse. Perhaps, Senior Sun will inevitably suffer some pain."

As soon as these words were spoken, Sun Baifa and Bai Xiaosheng understood perfectly what Chu Qinghe meant.

For comfort, you have to pay extra.

After understanding Chu Qinghe's meaning, both Sun Baifa and Bai Xiaosheng's eyelids twitched.

"They won't act until they see the rabbit!"

Upon hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Sun Baifa couldn't help but look at Bai Xiaosheng beside him.

After all, who would rather suffer than endure hardship and pain during treatment if they can get better comfortably?

However, Bai Xiaosheng ignored Sun Baifa's gaze and smiled at Chu Qinghe, saying, "As long as the illness can be cured, nothing else matters. If possible, this old man is willing to lend a hand to Young Master Chu."
