Supreme Hidden Dragon in the City-Chapter 26 Will you be my woman?
Chapter 26: Chapter 26 Will you be my woman?
Lu Jinyuan was somewhat baffled, "No, there was nothing of the sort. Why do you ask, Brother Chen Fan?"
Chen Fan said, "It’s like this, I have learned some Fengshui Mystical Arts, and just now I noticed that you are surrounded by an ominous aura, I fear you might encounter a bloody disaster soon."
Lu Jinyuan’s face suddenly changed, "Then what should I do?"
Chen Fan thought for a moment, then found a piece of paper, tore it into a long strip, bit his own finger, and drew a talisman with his blood.
Being a cultivator, his blood had the power to exorcise evil and avert disasters.
"Take this talisman; it should be able to protect you from a calamity at a crucial moment," Chen Fan handed the talisman to Lu Jinyuan.
Lu Jinyuan took it and smiled, "Then I must thank Brother Chen Fan. How much for this talisman?"
Chen Fan waved his hand, "It’s free."
Lu Jinyuan was visibly startled, "Brother Chen Fan, there’s no need for formalities with me. Name your price, I won’t be stingy."
"Boss Lu is joking. You are a friend of Qingyan, and it’s only right I help you out. I really won’t take any money for it," Chen Fan said with a smile.
Lu Jinyuan glanced at Su Qingyan and did not insist further, "Alright then, if there’s ever anything you need from me in the future, Brother Chen Fan, just say the word."
Since Lu Jinyuan still had to recover the money he was duped out of, the dinner did not last much longer.
Lu Jinyuan apologized to his friends one by one as they left.
After seeing off the last group, he also heaved a sigh of relief.
He took out the talisman Chen Fan had given him, glanced at it, and revealed a look of scorn.
An underling approached, "Boss, was what that man said true? Can such a casually drawn thing really avert disasters?"
Lu Jinyuan knocked on his underling’s head, "Avert what disaster? It’s just his way of asking for money from me."
"Asking for money? But he didn’t take it even when you offered," the underling said with a puzzled look.
Lu Jinyuan sneered, "With Miss Su here, of course, he couldn’t take it; when he said I was a friend of Miss Su’s, he was hinting at me. Later on, I’ll have to find a time to personally deliver the money to him."
The underling’s eyes widened, "So that’s the story."
"There’s a lot to learn in all this; take note," Lu Jinyuan said, tossing the talisman to his underling, "Here, it’s yours now."
"Boss, you should keep it. What if it actually works?" the underling said.
Lu Jinyuan turned and walked towards the exit, "I just got checked over by a high monk from Azure Dragon Temple a few days ago. He said I have great fortune coming my way; how could there be any disasters? Keep it for yourself!"
"Gather the boys and let’s go catch somebody. I can’t let them just run off with my hundred million!"
...
Su Qingyan drove Chen Fan home.
On the way, Su Qingyan asked curiously, "You also know Fengshui Mystical Arts?"
Chen Fan smiled and nodded, "I only know a little, not much."
Su Qingyan heard the modesty in Chen Fan’s words and was greatly shaken deep inside.
Medicine, prescriptions, insight, Fengshui Mystical Arts.
Chen Fan was continuously updating her impressions of him.
Soon, Su Qingyan’s car arrived at the front gate of Golden Lake Villa.
"Get out, then."
Chen Fan did not move but instead turned to look at Su Qingyan, "Qingyan, though I don’t have much of an achievement at the moment, just give me a little time, and I will certainly make everyone take notice."
"When that time comes, would you be willing to be my woman?"
Miss Su fell silent.
Chen Fan became slightly nervous, "Sorry... I’m sorry, it was abrupt of me to ask, you don’t have to answer if you don’t want..."
"It depends on how you perform," Miss Su suddenly spoke up.
Chen Fan was startled, then with a face full of excitement, he earnestly said, "I absolutely won’t let you down!"
"Alright, hurry up and get out of the car," Miss Su hurried him, "and don’t forget the new product launch next week."
"Yes!" Chen Fan got out of the car, thrilled.
Miss Su let out a long sigh of relief and touched her burning cheeks, "That’s so annoying, asking so suddenly, my goddess image was almost ruined."
...
Qin Lan and Sun Jiancheng returned home with grim looks on their faces.
Just as they entered, Qin Lan threw her bag on the ground, "Why is it always me who ends up unlucky? I’m fed up with this!"
Sun Jiancheng tried to console her, "Chen Fan just got lucky, don’t take it too seriously."
"Getting lucky once is fine, but what about the second and third time? Is it still luck, or are you just incompetent?" Qin Lan’s hair was disheveled, and her eyes were bloodshot as she stared at Sun Jiancheng.
When Sun Jiancheng heard the words "incompetent," he instantly became angry and slapped Qin Lan, "Who the hell are you calling incompetent!"
Zhang Wanfang was scrolling through news about the Youth-Preserving Pill on her phone in the bedroom when she heard the argument and hurriedly ran out.
"What’s going on here? Let’s talk calmly and not get upset with each other."
Qin Lan embraced Zhang Wanfang and started sobbing loudly, "Mom, I don’t want to live anymore."
Seeing her like this, Sun Jiancheng apologized with a dark expression, "Sorry... I’m sorry, I was impulsive.""
Ten minutes later, the three of them were sitting on the sofa, the atmosphere heavy.
Zhang Wanfang was the first to break the silence, "So what if you didn’t make friends with that Boss Lu? There’s no need to be angry about it. We can think of other ways to make progress."
"Jiancheng, you’ve heard about that Youth-Preserving Pill recently, right? It’s all the rage. I heard it was developed by a Master of Medicine, and it can make you look ten years younger. Many people in our dance group are planning to buy it, and some who are poorer are even considering taking out loans to afford one."
"Doesn’t your company also make pharmaceuticals? Can’t you secure the distribution rights for the Youth-Preserving Pill? That would be far more promising than befriending Boss Lu!"
Sun Jiancheng’s face turned even uglier, "The Youth-Preserving Pill is a product of Miss Su’s company. The last time at the old lady’s birthday party, I offended Miss Su, so how could she possibly let me distribute the Youth-Preserving Pill?"
Zhang Wanfang fell silent. She had been thinking that if Sun Jiancheng could secure the distribution rights for the Youth-Preserving Pill, she could offer discounts to the people in the dance group and become the next lead dancer.
Not willing to give up, she asked, "Wasn’t the Youth-Preserving Pill developed by a Master of Medicine? Just because Miss Su won’t let you distribute it doesn’t mean the master won’t. Can you contact this master?"
Qin Lan looked at Zhang Wanfang speechlessly, "Mom, even if we could contact him, why would he help us? We’re simply not in a position to court such a person."
But Sun Jiancheng’s eyes lit up, slapping his thigh in realization, "Right! How could I have not thought of this!"
"If we can get the approval of this master, even Miss Su surely wouldn’t dare say anything!"
"Wait here, I’m going to tap into my network and see if I can find a way to contact this master."
Soon after, Sun Jiancheng started making phone calls.
Half an hour later.
Sun Jiancheng looked at Qin Lan and Zhang Wanfang with a beaming smile, "I asked a friend who knows someone inside Qingyan Pharmaceuticals, and we finally got some information about this Master of Medicine."
Qin Lan and Zhang Wanfang both leaned in, curious.
"For now, all we know is that the master’s last name is Chen and he lives in the Golden Lake Villa community."
Zhang Wanfang jumped up excitedly, "That’s fantastic! We’ll bring a gift and visit this master tomorrow!"
