Chapter 354: The Pill That Prolongs Life
The mole was the size of a green bean, which was actually not small, and it was located on her heart. If she had it in her body in another world, she would not have failed to notice it.
But after coming to this world, because she looked exactly like the original You Xiaoxia, and Lao Liu also said that this was her in a parallel world, she subconsciously thought that her body should be exactly the same, so she didn't observe this body carefully.
Of course, she was too embarrassed to observe. After all, it was quite strange to look at her body in the mirror without any clothes on.
[Is this a new growth? Did the original You Xiaoxia have this mole? Didn’t you say we are the same person? Then our bodies should be exactly the same, right?]
Lao 6 is not sure whether this mole existed when the original owner was alive. After all, its host is different from the people in this world, and it cannot see many things about the host.
[I didn’t know before, but I know now since you came here.]
You Xiaoxia touched the mole out of curiosity. It was very flat and she couldn't feel anything.
[Such a large mole, it won't turn into cancer or something, right? ]
You Xiaoxia has heard that moles can also become cancerous.
[Host, you are very healthy. Don't worry. If you get sick, I will notice it immediately. ]
You Xiaoxia shrugged, and suddenly remembered something: [You are not looking at me, are you? Close your eyes quickly. Also, are you a man or a woman? Regardless of gender, you cannot look at me! ]
Old 6: […You forgot, I am neither male nor female, I have no gender, and I am not looking at you because I have no eyes. I usually use your eyes, of course, and use the omniscient perspective, but now I have closed my vision, so don’t worry, no one is looking at you!]
You Xiaoxia snorted twice.
After resting at home for two days, it was soon time for Gu's company's birthday banquet outside the city.
The invitation letter invited the entire Song family, so the Song family got up early that morning to prepare.
Gu Sicheng's grandfather was of an extraordinary status, so naturally one had to be in high spirits when attending his birthday banquet.
Song Ankang put on a brand new suit, stood in front of the mirror and said to his wife, "This time, I benefited from Xiaoxia again."
In the past, no matter how big the Song family's business was, it was not easy for him to attend a private birthday banquet like that of Old Master Zhou. In fact, it was not open to the public at all, so he had no chance to get in no matter what.
Mo Pingxin smiled and sighed: "We benefited from Xiaoxia's help, and this is not the only thing."
"Yes." Song Ankang nodded.
Ever since Xiao Xia came back, the Song family's group has been doing extremely well. Other companies have been begging for cooperation with them, not to mention that the group now has many more public projects. These are all given by the higher-ups for Xiao Xia's sake. How could Song Ankang not understand this?
Seeing his wife's slightly furrowed brows in the mirror, Song Ankang worried: "Have you had nightmares again recently?"
Mo Pingxin shook his head: "No, I just don't know what happened, I suddenly felt a little flustered."
Song Ankang smiled and held his wife's hand: "Don't worry too much. Xiaoxia is protected by Lao Liu. If there is any problem with her body, it will be noticed before us. Since that powerful Lao Liu didn't notice the problem, don't scare yourself."
Mo Pingxin nodded: "I know."
"Let's go, it's almost time, the children must be getting impatient."
As soon as the Song couple went downstairs, they heard You Xiaoxia's strange cry.
"Wow, mommy looks so beautiful today, and daddy looks so handsome too."
The couple looked at each other, and Mo Pingxin smiled and pinched her daughter's face: "Xiao Xia is also very beautiful today."
Song Linlang and Feng Ling came over with a smile: "What about us?"
Mo Pingxin laughed: "Linlang is beautiful, Xiao Fengling is beautiful too, they are both little beauties."
Song Xiangchen imitated Song Linlang, leaning his head over, and even imitated her tone 80%: "What about me?"
Mo Pingxin: "...You are very handsome, but you are still a little bit behind your elder brother, and even worse than your father!"
Song Xiangchen retracted his head and muttered quietly: "I shouldn't have asked."
The whole family laughed instantly.
Grandpa Zhou's birthday banquet was booked in a private restaurant that was not open to the public. It was a courtyard with an antique style from layout to decoration. When You Xiaoxia and her family arrived, the place was already bustling with activity.
Gu Sicheng was waiting for them at the door in person. After getting off the car, he led the Song family into the yard.
When they reached the door, the young people who were chatting and playing in the yard stopped talking and turned around, all their eyes fell on You Xiaoxia.
Gu Sicheng introduced them to You Xiaoxia: "These are my cousins, but it doesn't matter. You don't need to remember their names."
"What's not important, Gu Xiaowu, is this how you introduced us?" A man who looked about the same age as Gu Sicheng said with a smile.
"That's right, Sister Xiao Xia is already here, it's no use hiding it!"
Several younger people came up and surrounded You Xiaoxia and Song Linlang, chattering and asking questions all over the place, asking whether You Xiaoxia was really good at fortune-telling, and asking Song Linlang about gossip in the entertainment industry.
Father and Mother Song were led to where the elders were to drink tea and chat. Eldest brother Song Xiangbei and youngest brother Song Xiangchen were also entertained by people of similar age.
The yard suddenly became lively again.
"It's my turn, it's my turn, Sister Xiao Xia, can you help me calculate my love luck? Um... just calculate my love luck."
You Xiaoxia looked at the little girl who was just as tall as her waist, then looked at Gu Sicheng: "Is this your cousin too?"
Gu Sicheng held his forehead and said, "This is my cousin's daughter. Go away. How old are you? How can you be so lucky in love?"
The little niece pouted, and You Xiaoxia responded: "That's not right. She is your niece, but she calls me sister? Doesn't that mean I am a generation younger than you? I have to call you uncle?"
Gu Sicheng: "... Please spare me, I am your uncle? You are more like my ancestor!"
Those old men are about to worship her, how dare Gu Sicheng be their uncle? !
The little niece covered her mouth and laughed. As she laughed, she suddenly saw the old men appear in the corridor.
"Master Xiao Xia, you are here."
You Xiaoxia looked at the people who came: "Grandpa Jing, Grandpa Qiao, Uncle Zhao, Uncle Li, you are all here."
Seeing the enthusiastic looks of the old men, the young people who were laughing in the yard immediately fell silent.
I've heard that You Xiaoxia is very popular with the old men, but now it seems that it's more than just being popular. The old men's enthusiastic and fawning smiles are something that many young people have seen for the first time!
Everyone exchanged glances.
As a centenarian, Mr. Zhou couldn't even squeeze into the first group to greet You Xiaoxia. He was very anxious and coughed twice. When You Xiaoxia finally looked at him, he smiled and said, "Master Xiaoxia is here. How come no one notified me? I should have gone out to greet him."
"Please give up!" You Xiaoxia really couldn't stand this group of old men. "You are eighty years old, and you still come out to pick me up in person. This is just shortening my life!"
As she spoke, she handed over the gift she had prepared, a sandalwood box: "Gu Sicheng said you don't accept gifts, but I still prepared it for you."
"I don't want other people's gifts, but I'd love to receive the gift prepared by Master Xia!" Old Man Zhou quickly took the box, opened it slightly, and then quickly closed it with a 'click'.
The other old men who were about to peek were not happy: "What did Master Xia give you? Let us have a look."
Mr. Zhou smiled and hid the box behind his back: "No, this is for me, what are you looking at!"
The old men rolled their eyes. Grandpa Jing was the most cunning one. He deliberately asked You Xiaoxia, "Xiaoxia, what did you give to Old Man Zhou? Can you also give me something when Grandpa Jing celebrates his birthday?"
You Xiaoxia nodded: "Sure."
[It's just a pill that can extend your life, but it can only extend your life by two years, which is a short time and not worth a few melon seeds. I'll give it to you when you want it.]
Everyone's eyes widened instantly.
A pill that prolongs life?! Another two years?!
The old men looked at each other, each of them feeling itchy. Two years is not a short time. At their age, living one more day is a bonus!
Several old men were so angry that they wanted to stamp their feet. Hey! Why aren't they the ones celebrating their birthdays today?
Old Master Zhou suddenly became happy and raised his eyebrows proudly at the old guys.
The youngsters at the scene couldn't help but frown. A pill that can prolong life? An elixir? The kind that contains heavy metals? !
No, how can you believe this?! Are all the old men confused?!
No, the kids thought about it carefully and realized belatedly that Master Xiao Xia said the last sentence without even opening his mouth!
