Dandy Pill God-Chapter 23: Familiar Figure

"""Xu Pengfei’s words inevitably caused Zhu Fei to pause momentarily before he turned to Xu Pengfei with a strange look and said, "Manager Xu, I suppose you’ve already had someone look over the prescription I gave you before."

Xu Pengfei was stunned, but before he could open his mouth to explain, Zhu Fei chuckled and waved his hand, "Manager Xu, there’s no need to be nervous. Since I left the prescription with you, I don’t mind you researching it, and I’m not worried about what you might uncover."

A slight smile crossed his face as Zhu Fei went on to say, "If I’m not mistaken, the research your people have conducted on my previous prescription probably hasn’t yielded any concrete results, has it?"

The words of Zhu Fei alarmed Xu Pengfei and filled him with perplexity.

He didn’t understand what Zhu Fei meant by these words.

But now that Zhu Fei had made his message clear, Xu Pengfei certainly couldn’t pretend to be deaf and dumb.

He could only respond with a helpless wry smile and a nod, saying, "So, young brother Zhu knew about all of this all along."

"Since young brother Zhu has brought the topic to this point, I, Xu Pengfei, won’t hide anything from you. Yes, I had indeed shown your prescription to our Elder Song."

"However, as for the outcome, heh, just like young brother Zhu said, even with Elder Song’s capabilities, we couldn’t determine the true use of your prescription."

"Elder Song?"

Hearing this title, Zhu Fei’s gaze imperceptibly sharpened.

Then, he looked at Xu Pengfei again with a meaningful tone, "It seems that your Chunqiu Pavilion is not as simple as it looks."

Xu Pengfei was startled once more, yet before he could speak, Zhu Fei had already taken the initiative to say, "The Elder Song you mentioned must be quite interested in the use of my prescription, right?"

"Heh heh, if possible, please arrange a meeting for me with your Elder Song when the time comes. Would that be convenient for you, Manager Xu?"

Zhu Fei’s words made Xu Pengfei pause briefly before he burst into joy.

Hadn’t Elder Song instructed him to get along well with Zhu Fei to learn the use of Zhu Fei’s prescription?

Now, it appeared Zhu Fei was inclined to reveal the purpose of the prescription, which was an unexpected delight for Xu Pengfei.

Had Xu Pengfei not known that Elder Song’s whereabouts were unpredictable, and it was impossible to contact him at that moment, he would have asked Zhu Fei to wait right there so that he could inform Elder Song and then arrange a meeting with Zhu Fei.

Without any hesitation, Xu Pengfei quickly nodded and agreed with a smile, "Young brother Zhu wishes to meet our Elder Song, and I, Xu Pengfei, will certainly do my utmost to arrange it. When would young brother Zhu be available?"

"Well, let’s see. There’s no hurry. We’ll at least have to wait until after the mock exam at my school."

"Mock... after the mock exam...?"

Astonishment flashed across Xu Pengfei’s face. It was only at that moment that he fully realized.

The young man before him was, in fact, just a senior in high school.

Had Zhu Fei not reminded him, Xu Pengfei would have almost mistaken him for a seasoned "old monster."

In truth, with the vision of Zhu Fei and Elder Song, their words and actions wouldn’t be as simple as Xu Pengfei imagined.

When Elder Song first instructed Xu Pengfei to get acquainted with Zhu Fei and to discover the true purpose of Zhu Fei’s prescription, that was only one of his motives.

More importantly, Elder Song himself wanted to make acquaintances with a "high personage" like Zhu Fei, who was hidden from the world.

And Zhu Fei’s request for Xu Pengfei to arrange a meeting with that Elder Song was also because he wanted to know, out of curiosity, what kind of person would be addressed as an Elder.

After all, in Zhu Fei’s previous life, anyone who could be addressed with the title of Elder was considered a core figure in a sect or a clan."""

Secondly, Zhu Fei himself wanted to confirm, by meeting with Elder Song, whether this world truly had cultivators, or to put it another way, what kind of system was being cultivated by the cultivators of this world.

At this moment, Xu Pengfei looked at Zhu Fei with a trace of reverence flashing in his eyes.

It made sense, after all. Being so young and yet having received affirmation from their Chunqiu Pavilion’s Elder Song, such a character was definitely not any ordinary individual.

Xu Pengfei, who was currently at Chunqiu Pavilion, had also heard some inside information and knew the terrifying existence that lurked beneath the surface of the Pavilion.

And in front of him was Zhu Fei, this seemingly young man whose surface appearance was just a high school senior; he might also be one of those hidden figures.

With that thought, Xu Pengfei’s demeanor towards Zhu Fei once again became not just enthusiastic but also subconsciously tinged with a touch of respect.

Seeing the change in Xu Pengfei’s attitude, Zhu Fei became even more certain of the possible scenarios that could be hidden behind the Chunqiu Pavilion.

Thereupon, Zhu Fei gathered the medicinal herbs and said farewell to Xu Pengfei. Leaving the prescription behind, he turned and left Chunqiu Pavilion directly.

...

It was now past eight o’clock in the evening, and Zhu Fei walked on the road back to Rainbow Community.

Just as he passed by the entrance of a bar, Zhu Fei suddenly spotted a familiar figure staggering out of the bar.

Surrounding the familiar figure were several young men with hair dyed in various flashy colors, seemingly incessantly pulling at that familiar figure.

Zhu Fei’s eyebrows immediately furrowed, thinking, "Why would she come to a place like this? And looking at her now, she seems to have drunk alcohol and is quite inebriated."

After some thought, Zhu Fei ultimately didn’t just stand by. Instead, he stepped forward to the familiar figure’s side.

"Hey! Are you alright? Why did you drink so much?"

As he came beside the familiar figure, Zhu Fei could immediately smell a strong scent of alcohol emanating from her.

This caused Zhu Fei’s eyebrows to furrow once again.

"Who the fuck are you? Daring to ruin our fun. Are you tired of living or what?" said one of the young men with dyed red hair, his face showing ferocity as he threatened Zhu Fei loudly.

Zhu Fei was taken aback but then said with a mocking tone, "Do you even know who she is? Daring to lay a finger on her. I think it should be you who doesn’t want to live, right?"

That’s right, the owner of the familiar figure wasn’t anyone else but the captain of the criminal police—Qiu Ruoxue—who had just met with Zhu Fei earlier.

However, she was now dressed in casual attire.

She wore a black tight-fitting vest over a red blouse, and tight jeans that accentuated her shapely buttocks, making them appear especially tempting and full.

Combined with her usual cold demeanor and the flush of red on her cheeks from the alcohol, she was indeed a top-grade beauty capable of arousing the desires of any man.

Hearing Zhu Fei’s words, the red-haired youth was momentarily stunned, and then he burst into loud laughter, "Ha ha."

"Brat, do you know who you’re talking to? You think we wouldn’t dare to touch this woman? Pfft! To be honest with you, in Lan City, there isn’t a woman we are afraid to touch!"

"If you know what’s good for you, scram right now! Don’t delay us from taking care of business, or else..."

At this point, a vicious look appeared on the face of the red-haired youth.

"Or else, you better wait for someone to carry you back later!"
