Yan Aohan and his boss were the kind of people who would never even frown when killing someone.
Silver Fox hummed, then took his coffee cup and walked to the window. "Have we heard any news from the Holy Son lately?"
"The Holy Son and Yin Mei seem confident about the treasure on Changbai Mountain in Kyoto. They plan to go there," Lao Ma said seriously.
"Heh, a bunch of idiots." A hint of disdain curled at the corner of Silver Fox’s mouth.
"Boss, should we go join the fun?" Lao Ma asked.
"No need. There is no treasure on Changbai Mountain. Going there is a waste of time," Silver Fox said calmly. "However, I heard there is a Nine-Colored Deer on the mountain. I don't know if it's true."
"That's just a legend," Lao Ma said directly. "How could there be a Nine-Colored Deer in this world?"
"All things in heaven and earth are magical. Just because it doesn't exist now doesn't mean it didn't exist before," Silver Fox stated. "Have someone push things along."
She walked to her desk, took a blueprint from the left drawer, and handed it to Lao Ma. "Give this map to the Holy Son. Better yet, give a copy to Yin Mei too. Give it to Yin Mei first, and the Holy Son later."
"A treasure map?" Lao Ma glanced at it. "Didn't you say there was no treasure on Changbai Mountain? Where did you get this map, Boss?"
"Forged." Silver Fox looked calm and relaxed, saying it lightly.
Lao Ma stared at Silver Fox. Are you really this calm? "Boss, do you plan to make the Holy Son and Yin Mei turn on each other?"
"Let's try," Silver Fox said indifferently. "Yin Mei’s character isn't great, but his IQ is decent. If we give it to the Holy Son first, Yin Mei won't offend him. But if Yin Mei gets it first, and the Holy Son gets it later, Yin Mei will surely send people to investigate first. When Yin Mei arrives before the Holy Son, and the Holy Son finds no treasure, he will naturally think Yin Mei kept it all for himself. No matter how Yin Mei explains, the Holy Son’s intelligence won't allow him to believe it."
"Boss, is this really a good idea? Making them fight each other doesn't seem to benefit our Holy Sect," Lao Ma tried to advise him.
"What does it matter to me? I just like watching the show," Silver Fox smiled faintly. When did he ever need a reason for his actions?
Alright. Lao Ma sighed. Since Silver Fox said so, he had no choice but to execute the order.
After Lao Ma left, Silver Fox walked back to the window. He looked outside, where there was nothing, yet he seemed to see something. "Yan Aohan, the Yanluo of Kyoto." A half-smile played on his lips. What he was thinking, only he knew.
Three days after Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan got engaged, she returned to the Kyoto Hospital.
Gu Jingtian saw Zhu Yanyi and smiled. "You look great. Getting engaged really makes a difference. But tell your Yanluo of Kyoto to be careful. Don't go overboard."
Zhu Yanyi understood the meaning behind Gu Jingtian’s words. She glared at her.
"Senior Brother, stop teasing me. Weren't you and Senior Sister-in-Law the same when you started?" Since they were engaged, living together was normal. Zhu Yanyi wasn't afraid of Gu Jingtian’s teasing.
Gu Jingtian chuckled. "By the way, do you know any good girls? Our Fourth Senior Brother has descendants, so we don't worry about him. But our Fifth Senior Brother… we still need to care for him. He’s been single for years. This won't do."
"Wasn't she dating a female lecturer from a medical college? Did they really break up?" Zhu Yanyi asked casually. She thought it was just a rumor. Her Fifth Senior Brother was getting older. It was rare for her to find a girlfriend, so she didn't think they would break up so easily.
Gu Jingtian shrugged. "I don't know. she didn't introduce her to us, so they probably really broke up."
"The girls I know are about my age. It’s hard to find a suitable one for her. You might as well ask Senior Sister-in-Law," Zhu Yanyi said seriously.
Gu Jingtian thought about it and agreed. "Alright. I’ll talk to Senior Sister-in-Law tonight. Since Master is away, I, as the Eldest Senior Brother, must supervise you all properly."
Zhu Yanyi nodded. "By the way, I’ve read Peter’s agreement. It’s signed well."
"When do you plan to treat Princess Eliza?" Gu Jingtian asked.
Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly. "Once the Flying Immortal Map is delivered, I will treat Princess Eliza." She added, "Also, I’m going to Elder Yun’s place this afternoon, so I won’t be working."
"Okay." Gu Jingtian nodded in agreement.
After talking to Gu Jingtian, Zhu Yanyi went to see Shangguan Jiacheng. Shangguan Jiacheng had reacted well these past few days and was very happy to see Zhu Yanyi.
Zhu Yanyi took out a bag of candy and handed it to Shangguan Jiacheng. "You can’t eat candy, but you can smell it."
"Congratulations, Sister," Shangguan Jiacheng said with a regretful look. "If I weren’t sick, I could have seen your engagement."
"It’s okay. There’s still the wedding later. Take good care of yourself and get healthy. When I get married, you can come to the wedding. Maybe you can even be the uncle," Zhu Yanyi said with a smile.
"Uh-huh," Shangguan Jiacheng agreed happily.
Shangguan Jiacheng’s mental block was completely resolved. He basically no longer needed acupuncture and could drink porridge. However, he still ate mostly liquid food, as it was hard for his stomach to recover all at once. But being able to eat porridge was a good sign.
After checking Shangguan Jiacheng’s pulse, Zhu Yanyi adjusted her prescription and then left.
In the afternoon, Zhu Yanyi and Yan Aohan went to visit Elder Yun together. Their purpose was to discuss the special weapon with him.
Zhu Yanyi originally didn’t want to go, but since Yan Aohan insisted, she went. She wanted to give Elder Yun a heads-up about her medicine and prepare him psychologically. After all, the medicine she would develop later would need Elder Yun to operate it.
Elder Yun was a bit surprised by the arrival of the couple.
When Yan Aohan and Zhu Yanyi arrived, Luo Tao seemed to be talking to Elder Yun. In the end, Luo Tao looked reluctant and left.
"What’s wrong with her?" Zhu Yanyi asked Elder Yun curiously as she watched Luo Tao leave.
Elder Yun smiled faintly. "I asked him to go to Jinling Hospital, but he didn’t want to."
"I don’t understand. This person isn’t very useful anyway. Wouldn’t it be better to deal with him early?" Yan Aohan sneered, looking down on Elder Yun’s dragging style.
Elder Yun’s face felt a bit hot. "I was trying to see if I could lure out a fish."
