Chi Shuyan observed the expression of the man in front of her when she asked the question. Seeing that he didn’t hesitate to say that he wanted to see Zhou Manqing, Chi Shuyan felt a flash of appreciation for him.
On the side, Zhou Manqing’s eyes were already wet when she heard Fu Shiyin’s words, but she shook her head desperately. “Master Chi, I don’t want to meet him! I don’t want to meet him!”
Chi Shuyan motioned for Zhou Manqing to calm down, but Fu Shiyin saw Chi Shuyan’s subtle action. His face changed and he suddenly asked, “Master Chi, is Manqing here?”
Damn, this kid was too sharp! He guessed it so quickly. She saw Zhou Manqing’s face turn paler as she shook her head desperately. She suspected that if she said yes, Zhou Manqing would leave immediately.
Chi Shuyan could only say, “Why do you say that, Mr. Fu? I’m just thinking about something! Actually, it’s fine if you want to see Miss Zhou, but not right now!”
“When?” Fu Shiyin said quickly. After a pause, Fu Shiyin realized what Master Chi actually meant. Was this Celestial Master saying that she could let him meet Manqing again? Thinking this, Fu Shiyin was so excited that he almost knocked over the teacup on the table. “Wait, Master Chi, are you saying… Can you really let me see Manqing again?”
Chi Shuyan nodded. “I’ll inform Mr. Fu in a few days!”
Fu Shiyin had had little hope when he sought out this Master Chi whom Manager Yu had mentioned, and didn’t really think that she could fulfill his wish. Now that Master Chi had said the words so confidently, however, Fu Shiyin subconsciously believed her. Even if this Celestial Master in front of him was just a swindler, Fu Shiyin didn’t want to let this chance go.
Fu Shiyin pushed the Iron Essence over to Master Chi without hesitation, but Chi Shuyan handed him a few high-grade level 1 jade pendants in exchange, which was still a loss for Fu Shiyin. Chi Shuyan had thought of giving him an elementary level 3 magic weapon, but such a thing would only harm him.
After thinking about it, Chi Shuyan still chose to give him a few high-grade level 1 jade pendants. She instructed, “If you trust me, Mr. Fu, please remember to carry this on you; it’s good for your health. You should recover soon! As for the other jade pendants, you can keep them or give them to anyone you want!”
Fu Shiyin was stupefied for a moment, but still nodded in agreement and put away the jade pendants.
Ever since the other party said that he would be able to see Manqing, Fu Shiyin’s complexion improved.
Chi Shuyan took the Iron Essence and was about to leave not long after. Fu Shiyin was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to find her later. Chi Shuyan saw through his thoughts and said, “Mr. Fu, since you have my number, you don’t have to worry about not finding me in the future!” After a pause, Chi Shuyan teased, “Don’t worry, I’m not a swindler!”
Fearing that Master Chi would get angry because of his doubts, Fu Shiyin said hurriedly, “Master Chi, since I’ve chosen to believe you, of course I believe you!”
Before Chi Shuyan left, she took a look at Fu Shiyin. He was indeed a wonderful person. It was no wonder that Manqing fell for him back then.
She also didn’t want to be a light bulb anymore, so she told Zhou Manqing to follow Fu Shiyin, and to come back and find her in a day or two.
When Chi Shuyan left, Zhou Manqing suddenly chased after her with a bitter expression. “Master Chi, I… I don’t want to meet him!”
Chi Shuyan said, “I know what you mean, but you don’t have to worry about scaring him with your appearance. When the time comes, I’ll have a way for the two of you to meet properly. Besides, I saw earlier that Mr. Fu was ready to die. A meeting would be good for the both of you!”
