Chapter 928 - 927: She Has No Eye for Good People
Zhan Hongjun wanted to get to know Beisitian through Luo Yirui, hoping she could introduce him to Wei Zhongxun.Beisitian was somewhat curious, "Why don’t you directly and purposefully seek medical help instead of causing trouble here?"
Upon hearing the words ’causing trouble,’ Zhan Hongjun didn’t feel embarrassed at all. It was actually quite a good method.
"We can’t leave Jiang City." Zhan Hongjun showed a helpless expression, "I can’t say the reason, but we really did wait until someone from Heavenly Blessing showed up."
Beisitian saw his excited look but knew he wasn’t being honest.
"Who do you want to treat?"
Zhan Hongjun touched his nose, "Someone I care a lot about! This illness can’t be treated by major hospitals; we even found foreign experts, but it was futile, so we can only seek out some domestic recluses."
Beisitian certainly knew what a recluse meant; apparently, Zhan Hongjun knew more than he appeared to.
Actually, the existence of Mystic Doctor is no longer a secret in upper society. Mystic Doctor is human, a profession, naturally can’t completely be a recluse. And among these elite, there’s another point of pride: who can afford a Mystic Doctor’s consultation or buy a Xuan Talisman.
Beisitian secretly shook her head; Zhan Hongjun appeared sincere, yet not a word was true. Among the three of them, there was indeed a Mystic Doctor who could do Spiritual Talisman; she didn’t believe Zhan Hongjun didn’t know.
Having a master by your side and still looking for another master elsewhere clearly indicates there’s a problem.
However, this assured Beisitian that Gu Haiqing hadn’t figured out her and Luo Yirui’s identities.
It also indicated that Little Rui’s physique carried at least her trait — ordinary people couldn’t detect her spirit level, even with a Sensitive体质 it wouldn’t be obvious. Little Rui inherited this feature.
Gu Haiqing treated them as ordinary people, so naturally, he would inform Zhan Hongjun, leading to this conversation.
The person they wanted to see was Wei Zhongxun, and from Zhan Hongjun’s discussions, Beisitian sensed they might know the person behind Heavenly Blessing was her, and also knew of Qingyu’s existence.
This was to draw out Qingyu’s people; however, the method was too clumsy, and had she and Wei Zhongxun not conveniently arrived here, their disturbance would have stopped at Ma Tianlai, unable to reach her.
Even if the other party were children from influential families, they couldn’t behave unreasonably before them.
The other party’s words were incomplete and untrue, and Beisitian increasingly felt something was wrong, abandoned her plan to take advantage of the situation, shaking her head and saying, "Sorry, his identity isn’t ordinary, I can’t just casually introduce him. This happens too often."
Since their target was Wei Zhongxun, she could just observe from the sidelines.
Zhan Hongjun showed a disappointed expression, "Won’t madam reconsider? I really hope to meet this gentleman; a patient is waiting for his treatment, possibly won’t make it if delayed!"
He hoped these words would incite sympathy in Beisitian.
Beisitian sighed instead, "Even though I want to help you, you overestimate my influence; apologies for this matter, perhaps directly visiting would be much better than asking me to introduce."
Her words contained many misguidances for Zhan Hongjun; it was up to him how he interpreted them.
Beisitian and Luo Yirui left after saying goodbye, while Zhan Hongjun stared at the hustle below for a moment, then got up from his seat, heading to Gu Haiqing’s room.
With a gentle knock, the door opened, and Le Jiayang was already inside.
"How was it?" Gu Haiqing closed the door and asked.
Zhan Hongjun shook his head, "This woman is quite smart, going around in circles; I still couldn’t figure out her relationship with that man. But it doesn’t matter, the crucial point is, that man indeed came from Beijing; if our guess is correct, he should be someone from Qingyu!"
"Which one in Qingyu do we know?" Le Jiayang asked while removing his headphones.
Gu Haiqing and Zhan Hongjun pondered for a moment: rumor has it one person in Qingyu is extremely charming, formerly from the Capital City’s Wei Family, later taken under Qingyu. So this person is highly likely to be Wei Zhongxun!
They also thought it could be Wei Zhongyuan, but given his extremely cold demeanor, after observing him, he seemed less likely.
"Wei Zhongyuan, huh..." Le Jiayang muttered.
Zhan Hongjun looked at Gu Haiqing, asking, "How is this person’s skill level?"
Gu Haiqing shook his head, "Members of Qingyu are notably discreet; we only know information about the Inheritor Disciple, not much about others, so their skill level remains unknown. However, it’s said this Wei Zhongxun apprenticed the same master as the Inheritor Disciple, so his strength should be considerable, naturally not average."
Perhaps close to par with him; if so, it could still be formidable.
"If only we could invite Qingyu’s patriarch." Le Jiayang chimed in.
This remark startled Zhan Hongjun, who suddenly asked, "I recall Haiqing mentioned Qingyu’s patriarch is a very beautiful woman, and also young, right?"
Gu Haiqing nodded, though regrettably there was no video evidence.
Zhan Hongjun thought of the woman he drank tea with earlier, remarking, "Could it be her? The woman is indeed with Wei Zhongxun, and she has a child with her!"
The more he thought, the more likely he felt!
Le Jiayang sneered, "You’re overthinking, Brother Jun. That woman and child are just ordinary folks; not to mention the patriarch of Qingyu, even the patriarch’s son, people talk about them being extraordinary. Even if they couldn’t perform Spiritual Talisman, at least their spirit would be different from average, right? Brother Haiqing did say they’re ordinary folks, right Brother Haiqing?"
Gu Haiqing, having a Sensitive体质, nodded in agreement, "That mother and child are indeed ordinary." He had briefly considered it earlier, but soon abandoned the thought.
With arms crossed, Zhan Hongjun leaned on the table, "Well, there’s no way around it; the woman isn’t bewitched by my charm, she has eyes but fails to see my value; she doesn’t honestly answer anything, can’t extract anything useful."
Gu Haiqing furrowed his brow slightly, "Seems this way, we have no choice but to focus on Wei Zhongxun. Regardless of his strength compared to mine, a new person means extra leverage."
Zhan Hongjun rubbed his nose, suddenly asked, "Why aren’t we directly presenting ourselves? Would this provoke Qingyu’s wrath? Heard each Qingyu Military and Political bigwig is acquainted, wouldn’t want them to cause trouble for us afterward!"
His father being the Municipal Secretary, if their actions truly angered Qingyu, his father would surely be implicated.
