Chapter 482 Don’t Ignore Me For Too Long
This time the call was from Haicheng.
Zhou Yu called.
Huo Xingzhou turned on the speaker so that Qiao Xi could hear him, and Zhou Yu's nonchalant voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Hey, Huo Er! I've done everything you asked me to do. The Liu family has already sent a top-notch cultural relic restorer to the imperial capital, and they should be arriving by now. The Liu family said they're their own people, and we can trust them absolutely."
Zhou Yu did not dare to neglect them at all, and did not ask them why they wanted to find a restorer for no reason.
The imperial capital is the cradle of cultural relics restorers. Wouldn’t it be more convenient to find people there?
"knew."
Zhou Yu mentioned again: "It seems that the Liu family asked Xu Yunye to go to the imperial capital with them. I am not sure about the details."
Before Huo Xingzhou could say anything, Sun Weimeng was furious!
"Xu Yunye? What is he doing here? Isn't having me as a lackey enough?" Sun Weimeng felt threatened and he wanted to fight with Xu Yunye immediately.
Zhou Yu laughed twice and said, "Sun Weimeng, that's all you can do! We're not sure if Xu Yunye will go. You'll know when he arrives."
He said a few more words before hanging up the phone.
Sun Weimeng was muttering to himself, full of resentment.
Qiao Xi found it funny when she saw it.
She pulled out all the long needles from Huo Xingzhou's body one by one and handed him the white shirt: "Put it on. You need to rest well during this period and don't think about anything else."
She meant something.
Huo Xingzhou slowly stood up, revealing a large area of his chest.
He put on his clothes slowly. He was forced to have a good sleep last night, so he was in very good spirits today.
Qiao Xi reached out and straightened his collar. "I'll be very busy next. I need to review all the Chinese medicinal herbs and decoctions, as well as basic acupuncture techniques. So, please don't distract me."
Huo Xingzhou held her wrist and said in a low voice, "I'll listen to you."
Sun Weimeng was so jealous that he was bubbling with jealousy.
After a while.
The maid, Xiao Yuan, hurried upstairs. "Master, Madam, there's a guest in Haicheng! They say the Liu family came specifically to help you with your problems, and they're carrying a very strange box."
Sun Weimeng ran out immediately. He wanted to see if that bastard Xu Yunye had come.
Huo Xingzhou straightened his clothes and said calmly, "Let's go down and take a look."
"Then wait for me for a moment. I'll go to the bedroom and get the Plum Blossom Nine Needles."
Qiao Xi ran out quickly and took out the yellowed medical book.
Only then did he go downstairs with Huo Xingzhou.
…
In the living room.
Xiaoyuan prepared tea and handed it to the guests, then left tactfully.
When Qiao Xi came down the stairs, she saw a clean, bespectacled, and very elegant old man in his sixties or seventies. Next to him was a very special toolbox.
She guessed that the box might contain the tools the old man used to restore cultural relics.
Qiao Xi looked at him with a serious look in her eyes: "Hello."
The old man pushed his black-framed glasses, stood up and said, "Hello, Miss. You can just call me Lao Fang. If you have any needs, just tell me. I'm very tight-lipped."
Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou looked at each other, and the other nodded.
She handed the book "Nine Needles of the Plum Blossom" to the old man with both hands: "Master Fang, this is not a precious cultural relic. I would like you to see if there is any interlayer in this book. If there is, please help me take it out."
"good."
Master Fang took the medical book and spread out the entire toolbox. The neatly arranged tools inside were dazzling.
He first carefully turned the pages with his fingers, and then felt them with his fingertips.
As an experienced master, he easily noticed the abnormality of the book page. He carefully examined it with a magnifying glass and tweezers, and then said to Qiao Xi, "Miss, there is indeed something in here."
Qiao Xi's breathing became unsteady: "Can it be taken out?"
Master Fang said, "The sealing of this thing is very good. I need to study it carefully."
"Okay, then I'll arrange for you to stay first. Xiaoyuan..."
Qiao Xi was about to ask Xiao Yuan to arrange a room for Master Fang, but was stopped by Huo Xingzhou.
He said, "I've asked Lao Chen to arrange accommodation for Master Fang and also assigned two bodyguards to protect him. He will be provided with three meals a day in a small villa near us."
Master Fang quickly said, "That's great! I also like quiet places with fewer people. If there's any progress, I'll inform the young lady immediately!"
Qiao Xi nodded and said yes.
Huo Xingzhou shouted, "Old Chen, send Master Fang over there and arrange everything before coming back."
"Okay."
Old Chen respectfully asked Master Fang to leave.
The living room fell silent. Sun Weimeng looked at them curiously. "You have another secret? Is there a treasure map in this book?"
Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou just smiled and said nothing.
Sun Weimeng said angrily: "I'm going to ignore you guys, I'm going out to play!"
He grabbed his car keys and cell phone and ran out. These days, he went out whenever he had free time and knew all the famous clubs and bars in the capital.
Qiao Xi reminded: "Take Lao Chen with you!"
Sun Weimeng waved his hand casually and walked away, and it was unclear whether he agreed or refused.
Sun Weimeng left.
Qiao Xi laughed out loud and said to Huo Xingzhou, "The last Guan family birthday party was hosted by Young Master Sun. He has many close friends in the capital on his phone. He called them all over with just one call. I don't know how he did it."
Huo Xingzhou raised his thin lips slightly. "Although Sun Weimeng likes to play around and misbehave, he can always become a killing weapon when you least expect it."
If used well, it can be a decisive move.
Qiao Xi exhaled lightly and said, "I'm going upstairs to prepare the medicine. Please help yourself."
Huo Xingzhou grabbed her wrist, held her in his arms, lowered his head and kissed her lips fiercely: "Don't ignore me for too long."
Qiao Xi raised her head, a sly smile on her face: "From today on, you will be banished to the cold palace!"
She pushed Huo Xingzhou away and ran upstairs briskly.
Huo Xingzhou gave her a new set of gold needles. She thought of a Chinese medicine doctor who was famous for his "golden needle technique". Perhaps the technique is still passed down today.
She wanted to try gold needle acupuncture therapy, which was very effective for traumatic swelling.
…
Night falls.
The imperial capital is prosperous everywhere, especially the dens of brothels in the dark.
Young Master Sun played with his car keys and walked into one of the most prosperous bars in the capital with ease.
He didn't want to bring that guy Lao Chen with him. He looked honest and simple, but his muscular body was particularly attractive to young girls.
Sun Weimeng has been very busy these days. Whenever he has time, he comes over to have a few drinks and see if there are any pretty girls.
No matter which one I look at, I feel that they are not as good as Guan Jingtan.
He sat at the bar and asked the bartender to serve him the most classic cocktail, which he drank with some boredom.
I didn't notice anyone approaching from behind!
Sudden!
He was pulled over with great force, and Sun Weimeng fell off the high stool at the bar.
"Who is it?"
He fell flat on his butt, glaring and shouting angrily, "Which blind bastard dares to harm this young master!"
