The taxi drove for about twenty-five minutes before stopping in front of an ancient iron gate.
Zhu Yanyi and Gu Jingtian got out one after another. Gu Jingtian pressed the doorbell. Soon, someone came out. After confirming their identities, the person led them inside.
It was a huge manor. Zhu Yanyi was sure no private person in China owned such a large place.
A man pulled a carriage over. Gu Jingtian helped Zhu Yanyi onto it.
Zhu Yanyi sighed at this rich lifestyle. It was endless luxury. But she didn’t want it. She thought too much luxury made people lose their true hearts.
Five minutes later, the carriage stopped in front of a white house. Gu Jingtian and Zhu Yanyi got off. A man in a tailcoat came out. She looked like a butler.
“Hello, Mr. Gu. You are here.”
Gu Jingtian nodded slightly. “Hello, Butler Du.” Then she said to Zhu Yanyi, “Little Junior Sister, this is Butler Du. She is the person Old Master Huang trusts most.” She turned to the butler. “Butler Du, this is my little junior sister, Zhu Yanyi.”
“Hello, Little Divine Doctor.” Butler Du smiled gently. His face was plain, showing no other emotions. His gentleness seemed fixed forever.
“Hello, Butler Du. Sorry to bother you.” Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly. She was neither humble nor arrogant. She showed no curiosity about her status.
Butler Du looked at Zhu Yanyi and nodded in her heart. She had met many people, including the President’s wife and daughter. Compared to those ladies from high society, Zhu Yanyi’s temperament and manners were just as good.
“Mr. Gu, Little Divine Doctor, please follow me. The Master is waiting.” Butler Du made a gesture for them to go ahead and led the way.
Zhu Yanyi and Gu Jingtian followed Butler Du into the house. They went up a staircase and stopped in front of a room. Butler Du opened the milky-white carved door with both hands.
Inside, an old man sat by the window. He looked energetic, but his eyes had no light.
“Master, Mr. Gu and the Little Divine Doctor are here,” Butler Du reported.
Huang Yongtian smiled upon hearing this. “Thank you, Mr. Gu and Little Divine Doctor.”
Gu Jingtian smiled. “Old Master Huang, please don’t say that. You are my master’s friend. If my master were here, he would surely come when he heard the news.”
“I heard Medicine Old Master is missing. Any news?” Huang Yongtian asked. His information was very fast. The news of Medicine Old Master’s disappearance was kept secret in China.
“We have news. But my master is playful. He said he wants to have fun,” Gu Jingtian said with a grin. He didn’t seem worried at all.
Huang Yongtian laughed. “Your master has always been like that.” Then he held out his hand. “Let me be checked first.”
Actually, Zhu Yanyi had already used her special power to check Huang Yongtian’s body when she first saw her. She knew the situation clearly. Gu Jingtian urged from the side, “Little Junior Sister, take Old Master Huang’s pulse?”
