Chapter 72: Do You Like Me?

Chapter 72: Do You Like Me?

Father Zhu knew very well that all Yang Xinde wanted was to get a few of those extraordinary talismans from Bocheng’s friend. In the end, however, he curbed his greed and didn’t immediately agree to Yang Xinde’s request, but had Zhu Bocheng pass it on to that little girl, Shuyan.

He was very interested in the two pieces of land in Hengdong and Hengxi, but Father Zhu was still a man of principles and didn’t forget the favor he owed the little girl, Celestial Master Chi, for saving his son and wife’s lives. Bocheng said he wanted to woo her, and whether or not she would really become his daughter-in-law, Father Zhu didn’t intend to interfere in this matter either. He would pass the word on at most, and let her decide. Besides, those talismans truly were extraordinarily good stuff. Father Zhu felt that even exchanging those two pieces of land in Hengdong and Hengxi for one Protective Talisman still wasn’t enough.

Could this precious Protective Talisman be compared with a few material possessions?

Father Zhu thought that the reason why Bocheng could get a few Peace Talismans from that Celestial Master Chi was entirely because his son was lucky to have a solid relationship with that Celestial Master Chi. Otherwise, how could there be such a good thing?

Chi Shuyan really didn’t know about this misunderstanding of Father Zhu’s.

Zhu Bocheng naturally didn’t know either, but after listening to Father Zhu, he agreed. Come to think of it, Zhu Bocheng really couldn’t compare with Yang Xinde. It was up to Sister Shuyan whether she agreed or not; there was no need for her to worry about his family. Besides, the two families didn’t have much of a friendship apart from this joint project, and it was mostly superficial. Zhu Bocheng himself had deeply experienced the benefits of Sister Shuyan’s talismans. No matter how much money was exchanged for a few talismans, he still felt that Sister Shuyan would lose out.

In any case, Yang Xinde wasn’t the only big client chasing the benefits of these talismans.

After Chi Shuyan ended her call with Zhu Bocheng, her lips curled into a genuine smile. Deep in her heart, her favorable impression of the Zhu family, whether it was Father Zhu or Zhu Bocheng, increased a bit. If the Zhu family had asked her to take action without good cause, she would definitely have done so, but only she would know what her thoughts were.

While Yang Xinde’s provocation was completely beneath her notice, it was impossible for her to pretend it never happened. But this was just a petty matter. No one was against money, and it was just a few elementary talismans. Chi Shuyan’s thoughts were completely different from that of Father Zhu and Zhu Bocheng. This Peace Talisman was elementary in her eyes. In the future, she could create more advanced talismans; a few elementary Peace Talismans were nothing. If this Yang person wanted more, she could give him more. Moreover, he mentioned two pieces of land in Hengdong and Hengxi. She now had a good impression of the Zhu family. A slight wave of her hand could earn money, so why not help the Zhu family out?

Chi Shuyan’s mood improved slightly and she said to Zhu Bocheng, “Young Master Zhu, since that Director Yang is willing, agree first on my behalf.”

“Sister Shuyan, you… you really agree? That Yang Xinde still assumed you were a swindler before! You mustn’t agree for my family’s sake,” Zhu Bocheng said.

“Don’t worry, I’m not that noble!” Chi Shuyan chuckled.

After confirming that Sister Shuyan herself was genuinely amenable, Zhu Bocheng didn’t say much, but said that he would definitely slaughter Yang Xinde for her later so that he would bleed a bit more. In Zhu Bocheng’s opinion, if Yang Xinde could get a few talismans from Sister Shuyan, he needed to bleed more for it to be worth it. “Okay. Right, Sister Shuyan, I’ve been calling you this for so long. You can’t keep calling me ‘Young Master Zhu’ after this. It’s so hurtful! Just call me Bocheng.” Zhu Bocheng murmured in his heart that given his solid friendship with Zhenbai, once Sister Shuyan and Zhenbai confirmed their relationship, calling him ‘Young Master Zhu’ would be too polite.

Seeing Zhu Bocheng’s determination, Chi Shuyan could only agree.

“By the way, where’s Zhenbai? Sister Shuyan, did Zhenbai send you back to the hotel?” Zhu Bocheng gossiped.

Chi Shuyan looked up at the expressionless man sitting in front of her, and instead of replying, she said, “I’m outside. Let’s talk later. I’ll go over to the building to take a look tomorrow!”

With Sister Shuyan’s last sentence, Zhu Bocheng was no longer worried about anything and momentarily forgot to probe into her relationship with his best friend. Chi Shuyan hung up, raised her eyes and continued to sit and stare at the man at the table, saying nothing.

Chi Shuyan also didn’t understand why she had followed the man in front of her into a private room to eat when she had clearly been very vigilant against him in the car earlier.

Chi Shuyan was now even more vigilant in her heart, afraid that he would probe into her secrets again. In the end, she could only blame herself for being so absorbed in the building project that she had forgotten everything else and foolishly followed him in to eat. It was too late for her to regret it.

Qi Zhenbai’s posture was noble and his movements elegant. The cooked and cut steak was placed in front of her. Chi Shuyan stared at the steak pieces distributed evenly on her plate and said politely, “No, no need.”

Although Qi Zhenbai didn’t say anything, his posture was incomparably tough and domineering as he spat out one word: “Eat!”

Chi Shuyan: …

In the end, Chi Shuyan could only eat her steak and continue to ponder. Speaking of which, if it hadn’t been for the luck-borrowing array buried under Sandalwood Gardens today, she wouldn’t have let her guard down in front of the man’s car. This kind of atrocious luck-borrowing magic reminded her of someone.

Thinking of how her luck had been borrowed in her past life, Chi Shuyan was deeply disgusted by borrowing arrays. This kind of array was too damaging to the balance of the world. Moreover, it wasn’t just a luck-borrowing array at the Sandalwood Gardens building. She felt that there was something else fishy about it. She was confident in her abilities, but using a simple spiritual technique this time caused the yin energy in her body to flow out unceasingly and weakened her for a bit.

With this in mind, Chi Shuyan raised her eyes and looked at the huge tonic pill radiating purple light in front of her. Her eyes instantly widened and lit up brighter than a several-hundred-watt light bulb. It wasn’t nice to stare so blatantly, so she snuck peeks. The more she looked, the more she drooled.

From one point of view, a Celestial Master who had just lost her yin energy would be extremely hooked by the thought of a huge tonic pill that could be touched. If some Celestial Masters with insufficient self-control were to touch such a huge tonic pill in their weakened states, they might lose their minds and suffer a qi deviation.

Chi Shuyan admitted that she had good self-control; otherwise, she would have pounced on him in the car. But she couldn’t help it now, and the more she looked, the more her heart itched.

Qi Zhenbai had always been adept at discerning words and expressions. How could he not see the way she looked at him and swallowed? It was no different from the previous few times when this woman repeatedly tried to get his attention. But he hadn’t taken it seriously at the time. Later on, when he started to pay attention, she deliberately avoided him.

He couldn’t understand what she was thinking, and it was the first time he couldn’t read a woman’s mind. Seeing her familiar hot eyes now, Qi Zhenbai’s lips curled into a secretive, deep smile that was unlike his usual self.

Sure enough, this woman avoided him at every turn just to get his attention, and her crush on him hadn’t changed at all. What was more, he firmly believed that this woman was aware of their future relationship. How could her heart be calm? It might have been for this reason that she avoided him before, but her desire to get his attention hadn’t changed.

When he realized this, Qi Zhenbai’s gloom and inexplicable jealousy of Zhu Bocheng in the depths of his heart were swept away. He was in a very good mood and found everything pleasing to the eye.

If it were any other woman in the past who was trying to get his attention, they wouldn’t need to resort to extreme methods for him to already blacklist them. This time, however, he didn’t feel the slightest bit repulsed by the woman in front of him. With this in mind, the man’s thin lips suddenly parted. “Do you like me?” His tone was extremely confident.

Chi Shuyan was stumped. Where did this man get his confidence from?

“If that’s the case, I can give you a chance!”
