Chapter 75 Cottage In The Sunny Mist
Hou Chenghe didn’t really understand what he said. He stammered and asked, “So you mean … you will help me fix it now and I can … now?”
“Yeah, just tonight. And you better have some self-control from now on. Obsession leads you nowhere.” Xiao Shun laughed.
“Understood, understood.” Hou Chenghe finally understood, and he was ecstatic, “Then let’s start now.”
Xiao Shun nodded his head. He told him to lie on the coach just like Xue Sihai.
He took out his silver needles and inserted several needles into his acupuncture points such as Zhu Bin, Shang Yang, and Yong Quan respectively.
A few minutes later, Hou Chenghe blushed. He felt his whole body burning. He looked at Xue Sihai with burning eyes, “Sihai, find some girls, my little gun is so ready now!”
Xue Sihai froze briefly and immediately understood what he meant. He picked up his phone and dialed a number, “Han, I need some girls …”
Half an hour later, a group of beautiful young girls were already waiting for them in a luxury box in the clubhouse. Hou Chenghe looked over, and his eyes almost spewed fire.
And at this time, Xiao Shun had long left the clubhouse after he left them a prescription.
Soon it was noon again. Xiao Shun bought some herbs and just returned to Pearl International, when he received a call from Xue Sihai. They wanted to meet him at a nearby restaurant.
After a short exchange of pleasantries, the three sat down.
They thanked him over and over again, and Hou Chenghe was especially excited. Last night had made him a completely different person. He now looked radiant.
After the lunch and rounds of toasts.
The three, who had been a bit nervous at the beginning, soon became close.
Hou Chenghe snapped his fingers and a pretty waiter in a cheongsam next to him brought over a delicate scroll.
“Brother, I have said enough thanks. ”
“I am by no means a man of letters but I do buy a few fancy things occasionally. Recently, I have got a scroll from a friend of mine. It’s definitely not much, but if you don’t mind, please do take this.”
Then he just spread that scroll over carefully.
“Cottage in the sunny mist!”
After he spread the scroll, Xue Sihai subconsciously shouted out. He certainly knew the value of the painting. It’s at auction for about 50 million.
He only knew that Hou Chenghe had prepared a gift for Xiao Shun, but he didn’t think it would be such an expensive one. He felt a little embarrassed at once.
After that 50 million in cash, to be honest, Xue Sihai had a pretty tight budget and he really could not afford anything that fancy.
Xiao Shun looked over and indeed it was quite a good work. That stately cottage on the steep cliff showed the leisurely life and determination of the hermit.
And in the margin it was written.
The mountain was covered by the green.
The stream flowed below the bridge.
Beyond the trees were only layers of cloud.
The stokes were sharp and overall it gave a leisurely feeling. It should be a real work of Zhang Daqian.
Xiao Shun did not refuse him and smiled, “Mr. Hou, thank you then.”
“Of course, last night was a miracle. You helped me a lot and gave me a second life. This alone is not enough to express my gratitude.” Hou Chenghe waved his hand.
Xiao Shun smiled without saying anything and nodded his head.
“Whenever you need my help, just let me know and I’ll do whatever I can.” Hou Chenghe added.
“Why would he need you? I’m in the city, if he needs anything he can come to me directly.”
Xue Sihai didn’t give him anything special, but still he wouldn’t just admit defeat.
“Thank you then. It’s my job, however.” Xiao Shun interrupted them.
The two laughed.
Xiao Shun suddenly remembered Starline Bio.
They had bought the company but since there was only Yao Cen in the company, the tedious paperwork had been a headache for them, so he said, “Well, I just happened to need a favor.”
He then told Xue Sihai about how they bought Starline Bio.
“I’ll take care of it,” Xue Sihai immediately assured. “I really know some friends who can help, and I will have my assistant assist you with these things.”
When they finished the lunch, it was already about two o’clock in the afternoon.
When he returned to Pearl International, Liu Yunxiang was already taking care of her small vegetable garden.
She cleaned the place up everyday and occasionally she would even prepared his lunch and finally she would go all the way back to their home to prepare their dinner.
Xiao Shun thought that was just fine.
Not only did Xiao Shun not make a fool of himself at the banquet yesterday, but he made Liu Yunxiang feel quite smug.
When she saw him return, she greeted him with a smile on her face, and Xiao Shun even felt a little out of place.
When he returned home, Xiao Shun casually put that painting on the table and went to work, and soon, it was evening.
As he was trying to pack up and go home he received a call from Song Linger.
“Master, I’ve been drinking your the for so long, so when are you going to teach me acupuncture?” Song Linger asked.
Xiao Shun slapped his forehead. It had been a long time. The next step he should teach her acupuncture points.
But he really didn’t have much time right now, so he said casually, “Find a map of the acupuncture points and try to remember them, then I’ll teach you more when I have time.”
“Oh, Master, you don’t want to teach me anymore, do you?” Song Linger said with some loss.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
“Not at all.”
Xiao Shun thought for a moment and said, “It takes time to learn medicine. How about I teach you some kung fu first? Don’t you study medicine to heal your own wounds? I’ll teach you some kung fu, and they are enough for you to deal with those punks, so you won’t get hurt.”
“You even know kung fu?” Song Linger was surprised.
“Sure, you can find a private place, I’ll teach you.” Xiao Shun said.
“Okay, okay, I’ll contact you after I find a suitable place then.”
Xiao Shun opened his mouth before Song Linger had hurriedly hung up the phone. He looked at his phone screen and shook his head helplessly.
It was indeed quite a hassle.
He remembered how his master taught him back then, and couldn’t help but feel a little emotional. Where the hell have you been, Master.
He then began to pack his bags and think about what he should teach this girl.
Presumably, she should have reached the fifth level of the Refinement level and there was still a pretty long way to go before she could reach the Foundation stage, so he decided to teach her Meteor Fist, which was developed by his master and should be quite suitable for her stage.
He was just about to put away his phone when the ringtone rang again. It was still Song Linger.
“Master, I’ve already found a place. My family has a place over at the eighth avenue.” Song Linger said with a smile.
Xiao Shun, “Okay, I’ll call you when I have time.”
