Xie BiAn and Fan Wujiu looked at each other, "Don't let this happen again, Jian Xi."
As soon as Jian Xi heard this, she immediately crawled out from behind He Qingchen and nodded vigorously twice with a smile, "It won't happen again, hehe, it won't happen again."
On the surface, she was sweetly agreeing, but in her heart, she was thinking that they would talk about things next time when they happen!
Xie BiAn helplessly glanced at Jian Xi. This girl and her master were the same, having said the words "it won't happen again" hundreds of times, but they still did what they wanted.
"Alright, let's go back. Let's also bring back Liu Changqing's soul, so the Underworld Messenger doesn't have to make an extra trip." Fan Wujiu said, dragging Chen Dajun and Liu Changqing's souls.
Liu Changqing's soul was still struggling, but Fan Wujiu kicked him into the Ghost Gate with one kick, and he disappeared before Jian Xi and He Qingchen's eyes.
Here, after the White and Black Envoys of the Underworld left, time resumed its course. The scene was still chaotic. The paramedics came to try to save Liu Changqing, but it was too late, he had already been stone cold dead.
Evil has its retribution, the time has come!
Gu Jinnan was busy and anxious, with Chen Dajun's corpse in the bridge pier and Liu Changqing's 'accidental' death.
However, these things had nothing to do with He Qingchen and Jian Xi anymore. Chen Dajun's soul had already gone to the underworld, so there would naturally be no abnormal accidents here because of him. So the rest was left to Gu Jinnan.
The crane came and hoisted away the rear tank of the cement mixer truck, and traffic at the scene resumed. He Qingchen took Jian Xi home.
It had been a busy day for Jian Xi - resolving Huo Chengxi's messy romantic relationships in the morning, shopping in the afternoon, and dealing with a "supernatural event" at night.
When the two returned to Pleasant View Creek Garden, it was already 11:30 at night. Jian Xi was exhausted, so she took a bath and went straight to bed.
The next morning after coming downstairs, Jian Xi saw four antique wooden boxes added to the living room.
He Qingchen walked out of the kitchen and put the fried eggs on the dining table. Seeing Jian Xi curiously looking at those big boxes, he said, "Two boxes of tea and two boxes of wine. After breakfast, open the Ghost Gate and deliver the goods."
Jian Xi suddenly remembered that He Qingchen seemed to have promised to give out things last night so that she wouldn't get scolded.
She smiled and hugged He Qingchen's arm, "Hehe, thanks brother, you spent money again because of me. I'll pay you back when I make money in the future."
He shook off her paws, and He Qingchen said, "Hurry up and eat."
"Okay!"
After the meal, He Qingchen accompanied her to open the Ghost Gate.
The reason why Jian Xi summoned the Black Envoy of the Underworld instead of Fan Wujiu was simple - Fan Wujiu didn't like to talk much and wouldn't admonish her!
After delivering the goods, He Qingchen went to work and Jian Xi obediently stayed at home.
For two consecutive days, Jian Xi did not go out until the third day when she was supposed to go to the old house to acupuncture He Zhiliang.
Today was Sunday and He Qingchen didn't have much work to do, so he didn't ask the driver to send them. Instead, he drove and took Jian Xi back to the old house himself.
Shen Xiaoheng had arrived at the old house early in the morning. He certainly couldn't miss this opportunity to observe.
When Jian Xi arrived, everyone was there, including Elder Master He who was awake. Seeing her arrival brought smiles full of wrinkles on his face.
First, she took the pulse for the Elder Master, then took out the silver needles for disinfection. "Grandpa, don't resist when you feel sleepy later. Just take a nap and I'll finish the acupuncture."
He Zhiliang nodded, "Okay, little seven has worked hard. I'm ready."
"Then I'll start. Grandpa, relax," Jian Xi said and then started needling.
Shen Xiaoheng was taking notes carefully with a pen and notebook, but Jian Xi's movements were so fast that before he could react to which acupoint she was needling, she had already inserted another one. His eyes couldn't keep up with her hands!
In just a few breaths, Elder Master He was already full of silver needles like a porcupine. Jian Xi tweaked one of the silver needles, causing the other silver needles to vibrate as well. Elder Master He also fell asleep peacefully.
Shen Xiaoheng was stunned. Such mastery seemed familiar to him. Two years ago, he had coincidentally watched a video of the legendary Chinese medicine master Lin Yichen's acupuncture technique, and the method was exactly the same, even the skill level was comparable!
Could it be that this Lin Yichen was also...
"Xiaoheng? Xiaoheng!" He Qingrou called him.
Shen Xiaoheng returned to his senses, "Yes, little rou?"
He Qingrou's gaze was dodging with red ears. "Little Seven called you several times."
"Oh, what can I do for you Miss Jian?" Shen Xiaoheng asked.
He Qingrou's reaction was completely seen by Jian Xi. With a smile on her lips, she said, "It's nothing. Grandpa's prescription needs to be changed. Can you lend me your pen and notebook? I'll write down the new one for you. From now on, I'll come every other day to do acupuncture for grandpa. It's a 7-day treatment course, and none of the medicine doses can be missed."
Shen Xiaoheng made a mental note of it and handed the notebook and pen to Jian Xi.
When he looked over, Jian Xi pointed her chin towards He Qingrou's direction and said, "The weather is so nice today, and it's an auspicious day too. There are even two magpies at the door!"
Her random words left everyone in the room puzzled. After reacting for a moment, He Qingchen responded in a slightly dissatisfied tone but still went along, "Humph, yes, it's pretty nice."
Shen Xiaoheng saw Jian Xi's gesture and heard what she said, coupled with He Qingchen's reaction. He instantly understood!
Miss Jian was giving him a hint that today would be a good day to confess his feelings!
What was he waiting for? Shen Xiaoheng bowed slightly to Jian Xi in gratitude. "Excuse me, I have something urgent to attend to. I'll be right back."
After speaking, he hurriedly went out. He had originally planned to confess after the Elder Master recovered. But since the weather was so nice today, he didn't want to wait. Although he didn't have time to prepare properly, at least a bouquet of flowers and the handmade bracelet he personally crafted were necessities!
Jian Xi chuckled while He Qingchen just looked at her helplessly.
Ever since she started reading the novels given to her by Su Yinghuo, she had been very keen on matchmaking and playing cupid. Back on the mountain, she couldn't do much except talk to him daily about the characters in the novels. But after coming down the mountain, she had completely unleashed her innate talent.
He remembered that she had said she also helped matchmake the pretty nice receptionist at his company with her destined partner, bringing their red thread of fate together at least half a year in advance!
Moreover, after discovering the marriage affinity between Shen Xiaoheng and his sister He Qingrou, she had been raving about it in front of him several times already. She probably couldn't stand Shen Xiaoheng's slowness and gave him a helpful push.
Oh well, Shen Xiaoheng was quite reliable after all, and had liked his sister for so many years. It would be decent enough for them to be together, so just let it be.
