Chapter 148 Lou Xiaoyu Doesn't Take the Challenge
Jin Beiwang took a sip of tea. "You should go back and discuss it with Master Gu. If he agrees, I'll arrange for one pill to be transferred over immediately."
Lou Xiaoyu sighed, "I've decided to buy this medicine. Researcher Jin, what's your price?"
Jin Beiwang paused for a moment, then realized what he meant and shook his head. "Although the drug's experiments have ended and many people have used it with good results, for the safety of the users..."
I still need to observe the patient's condition while they are taking the medication.
He spoke with precision and a serious expression, seemingly without a trace of selfishness. He didn't shy away from Xiao Yu's insightful gaze from upstairs.
After a long pause, Lou Xiaoyu nodded, "Then I'll have to trouble Researcher Jin."
Jin Beiwang was somewhat surprised. Judging from the other party's expression and actions, he could tell that the other party was possessive of his food. Why did he agree so easily?
However, he only thought about it for a moment before composed himself.
Why did Lou Xiaoyu agree? Of course, it was because she didn't trust Gu Qing. What is liking? What is love? It's wanting to give the other person the best.
Even if giving goes against one's own will, as long as it is good for the other person, one will make the choice without hesitation.
Lou Xiaoyu doesn't have such a deep understanding now; he's just acting on instinct. That's how humans are—one is instinct, the other is weighing the pros and cons, but the result is the same.
But it is often this instinct that is most touching.
Jin Beiwang smiled and agreed, promising that the medicine would be delivered in two days and that he would go there in person. He also asked Gu Qing to notify him as soon as possible if she leveled up during that time.
To outsiders, the two seemed to be having a pleasant conversation, each smiling and shaking hands politely to say goodbye. But only the two of them knew what they were really thinking.
Two days later, Jin Beiwang brought the medicine over and also gave Gu Qing a full-body check-up. He found that her supernatural abilities were fluctuating frequently, which was indeed a sign that she was about to advance.
He inwardly sighed, realizing that the family's previous investigation had been somewhat conservative. It seemed Gu Qing's advancement had no barriers whatsoever.
Of course there are no barriers. One of the advantages of the proficiency panel is that it quantifies a person's ability, and advancement is a natural progression that occurs when one accumulates to a certain level.
Unlike others who feel their abilities have reached their peak but can't break through even after years or decades.
The second advantage is that it provides some hidden rewards, such as awakened fire-type abilities and accelerated crop yields.
On the fourth day, Bo Chuan went to the military base in the morning to handle some matters and returned around 10 a.m. He had already requested leave and planned to work from home during this period.
When he returned, he found that the living room was filled with energy boxes of all sizes.
He put his military uniform aside and hung it up, then went inside and unbuttoned his shirt collar and cuffs. He walked around the various boxes and sat down on the sofa, having already rolled up his sleeves to his elbows.
He picked up the water the butler had poured and drank it in one gulp, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down as he drank, revealing his unbuttoned collar.
The movement of his arms accentuated the perfect curve of his collarbone. Unfortunately, Gu Qing wasn't there, and the only other man left, barely breathing, couldn't appreciate his beauty.
"What's going on? Why are there so many things in the living room?" Bo Chuan was so busy all morning that he barely had time to breathe because he wanted to get back early.
Lou Xiaoyu just opened an energy box, inside which was an energy crystal known as the Flame Heart, the number one in the interstellar space.
Bo Chuan saw him lean forward, his elbows resting on his knees. "This Heart of Flame weighs over 30 grams."
Compared to Lou Xiaoyu, he was indeed poor. His current wealth was accumulated in the last two years. In the previous few years, he had just taken over the legion and had to support so many people, so he lived a very frugal life.
So he didn't have many valuable possessions, and even then, part of his dowry came from his father.
Lou Xiaoyu had always been supported by his clan. Given his family's wealth and his selfish nature, he had accumulated quite a few valuable possessions.
He didn't hold back at all during this wedding. He not only asked for shares, but also for a lot of good things from his parents, completely with the mentality that if he didn't want them, someone else would benefit.
“32 grams, but I don’t think Qingqing really likes red. Do you think she’ll like this?” Lou Xiaoyu said, placing the box on the coffee table.
"Yes." Bo Chuan was certain, because as far as he knew, Qingqing didn't like red, but she liked rare resources. As long as it was rare, she would love it, whether it was red or black.
