The next day.
Su Yan and Su Yu left home early in the morning and boarded the train to Guangzhou at 7:30.
The two didn't want their families to see them off, so they left secretly.
Li Juan and the others woke up to find that the person had already left, and they were both angry and reluctant to let him go.
We had no choice but to wait until the brother and sister arrived in Guangzhou before calling them.
We arrived in Guangzhou at around 11 p.m.
Su Yu opened a nice double room near the train station.
After entering the room, he said to Su Yan, "Just make do for tonight, and go to your school to report tomorrow after you wake up."
Su Yan was a little tired, so she took off her coat and lay down on the bed, feeling drowsy.
"I never felt this tired even after a day and night train ride before. Now I feel like I'm going to faint. It seems that the 'Lola fruit' really has a big impact on the human body," she murmured.
Su Yu, who was arranging the luggage, paused for a moment, then pursed his lips and asked casually, "Ayan, can you take your own pulse?"
"I know a little bit." Su Yan said, checking her pulse. After a dozen seconds, she let go. "My pulse isn't as strong as before. It's much weaker. It seems I need to take good care of myself. I should try some medicinal cuisine later. I don't want to have health problems at such a young age."
"Is it just that you're a bit weaker? Nothing else?" Su Yu asked uncertainly.
Upon hearing this, Su Yan immediately glared at him. "Brother, what do you mean by that? Are you hoping something bad will happen to me?"
"No, I was just wondering if your skills were up to par," Su Yu said, but inwardly he breathed a sigh of relief.
The younger sister's pulse couldn't be detected, which is probably because the technique wasn't mature enough, and that's fine too.
As for whether she'll realize it later, we'll see.
"Okay, go take a shower before you go to sleep, otherwise you won't feel comfortable." He quickly changed the subject.
Su Yan was exhausted and didn't think too much. She grabbed her clothes and went to take a shower.
While she was taking a shower, Su Yu called home to let her know he was safe.
Grandma answered the phone at home. "Your mother and Xiaoyue are in the yard calculating the money they've earned at the shop these past few days. They're so excited they don't want to sleep."
Upon hearing this, Su Yu laughed, "Then it seems you've made quite a bit of money."
Otherwise, his mother wouldn't be up so late.
"Your mother said that the braised food in the shop is always in short supply, and many people are lining up to buy it."
"Then tell her to take care of her health and not to overwork herself."
His mother was a money-grubber; she didn't care how tiring it was to earn more money.
Grandma Li responded, then suddenly said, "Xiaoyu, are you and Mr. Jue hiding something from us?"
Su Yu's heart skipped a beat, but he calmly replied, "No, Grandma, what could Grandpa Jue and I possibly be hiding from you?"
"What is it? It's about Ah Yan!" Granny Li snorted coldly. "I may be old, but I'm not senile yet. Do you want me to be blunt, or will you confess yourself?"
Grandma Li had noticed long ago that something was wrong with Su Yan's health.
How could a simple case of food poisoning cause such weakness? Even a leading figure in traditional Chinese medicine needed so much treatment; something is clearly wrong.
The title "Grand Master" carries weight not just for any one person.
When Jue Lao was giving Su Yan acupuncture, she noticed that the old man looked worried and occasionally showed a hint of seriousness.
Grandma Li isn't stupid; on the contrary, she's become more and more shrewd as she gets older.
Su Yu's lips twitched, and he rubbed his forehead in exasperation.
He forgot that while he could fool his honest grandfather and carefree mother, how could he possibly fool his sharp-eyed grandmother?
"Grandma, I'll explain this to you when I get back. But please don't tell Mom and Grandpa. I'm keeping it from you because I don't want you to worry."
Grandma Li had guessed this, which is why she asked quietly at this moment, "I know."
Su Yu told her to get some rest and then hung up the phone.
Su Yan finished washing up and came out shortly after.
"Brother, who are you talking to?"
"Grandma, let the family know we're safe. You should go to sleep now."
Su Yan hadn't washed her hair, and nodded upon hearing this, "Then I'm going to sleep, you go wash your hair."
Jiang Jingxing should be asleep by now. She can call him again tomorrow after she's done with her work.
Su Yan fell asleep instantly after lying down on the bed, and slept very soundly.
Su Yu taking a shower didn't bother her at all.
...
at the same time.
Inside a private room at an entertainment venue in Guangzhou.
Xie Jin had just finished a phone call with Guo Ziming when he turned to the dignified man sitting on the sofa and said, "My junior sister and her brother have arrived in Guangzhou. I'll be picking them up from a hotel near the station tomorrow morning."
The man sitting on the sofa was none other than Sixth Master He Xiuyun.
Xie Jin told him everything that had happened during his time back in Beijing, and he sighed that his junior sister was a devoted lover.
"You can take my car to pick them up tomorrow, you don't need to drive yourself," said Sixth Master.
"Forget it," Xie Jin said. "I'm worried my junior sister will feel uncomfortable. I'll drive your car to pick them up."
Sixth Master was a little surprised and raised an eyebrow, saying, "Why did your attitude change so quickly? Weren't you quite unwelcoming to have another junior sister?"
Xie Jin coughed awkwardly and said, "Just pretend I didn't say that. My junior sister is great. My master has good taste."
Back then, he didn't even know who Su Yan was.
In addition, his master was so anxious about Su Yan and insisted that they go back to attend the apprenticeship banquet, so he was a little unhappy.
Sixth Master smiled but didn't say anything.
"Have you finished dealing with Third Master?" Xie Jin asked in turn.
When this matter was mentioned, Sixth Master's expression turned colder, and he said indifferently, "It won't cause any trouble."
His third brother ruthlessly killed him, but he was not a heartless person.
It didn't kill him, but it made him live a life worse than death.
Even the fourth and third brothers were not spared.
When he arrived, his fourth brother had been tortured to the point of near death and was still lying unconscious in the hospital. The doctor said the injuries were too severe and there was a high chance he would never wake up again.
Xie Jin sighed, "If it weren't for Third Master's excessive ambition, things wouldn't have come to this."
This is the consequence of insatiable greed.
"Now you have half of Guangzhou's power in your hands, you'll be even more comfortable in the future," he joked.
Sixth Master scoffed, "It's not necessarily a good thing; I'm afraid even more eyes will be on me."
"Of course, strong people are always envied and admired. You'll get used to it." Xie Jin walked over and patted his shoulder. "Alright, I'm going to sleep now. I need to pick up my junior sister and the others early tomorrow so I don't oversleep. If my master finds out, he'll scold me to death."
After saying that, he left.
After Xie Jin left, Sixth Master got up and walked to the window. His deep eyes gazed at the night view of Guangzhou from the highest point. He seemed to be thinking about something, and his eyes were filled with ripples.
Then, he took a black leather wallet out of his coat pocket.
Upon opening it, besides various cards, there was also a small amount of three hundred yuan in the wallet's inner compartment, which was well preserved.
