Chapter 325: Chapter 325: Medicine King Temple Ghost Market_1
Shangguan Yan asked Qin Feng to come see her tonight, and she was quite serious about it. However, it wasn’t to do that thing with him—she wouldn’t make it so easy for this guy! She had asked Qin Feng to come over in the evening because she wanted to take him to a place.
Qin Feng knew this woman was definitely not seeking to give him an advantage; chances are she wanted to take advantage of him. So, he flatly refused, saying, "I won’t come if you don’t make it clear."
"Aren’t you good at betting on medicine? Tonight, I’ll take you to broaden your horizons."
"Broaden my horizons? Where are you taking me to do that?"
"Medicine King Temple. Every month on the fifteenth, there’s a Ghost Market there. The Ghost Market at Medicine King Temple is different from others—it sells medicine and some traditional Chinese medical tools. If you’re skilled, you can get your hands on some rare medicinal materials there for a very small price."
"Alright!"
Seeing how readily Qin Feng agreed, Shangguan Yan asked curiously, "You agreed just like that?"
"If you wanted me to come see you tonight, I wouldn’t be interested. But a visit to the Ghost Market at Medicine King Temple? That greatly interests me."
"You bastard, what are you implying? Are you saying my charms are less than the attractions of the Medicine King Temple Ghost Market?"
"Indeed, they are."
"Heh!"
With a cold snort, Shangguan Yan then went to prepare Qin Feng’s medicine. However, while doing so, she intentionally added an extra ingredient. The medicine was a powder, colorless and tasteless—she believed Qin Feng would definitely not notice.
As long as Qin Feng took this medicine, he would be sure to follow her around when he came to see her tonight.
She wanted to see whether her charm as Shangguan Yan was greater, or the allure of the Medicine King Temple Ghost Market.
Tonight, she would definitely give Qin Feng a taste of yearning but not getting.
She was going to drive him mad!
In the evening, Qin Feng drank the medicine he had prepared and circulated his Xuanhuang Qi. He felt his body, tired from the day’s labors, suddenly spring back to its original state, and even become stronger.
As for the extra medicinal powder stealthily added by Shangguan Yan, since it was non-toxic and tasteless, Qin Feng didn’t notice a thing.
Qin Feng pulled out a new outfit that Xue Xiaochan had bought for him from the wardrobe. Dressed to the nines, he was just about to head out when Xue Xiaochan came back.
"Where are you going, all dressed up like this in the middle of the night?"
"Of course, to hit the nightclubs and pick up girls!"
"Dare to hit the nightclubs and pick up girls? I won’t beat you to death?" Xue Xiaochan said with a playful smack on Qin Feng, asking, "What are you really up to?"
"Going to the Ghost Market at Medicine King Temple, are you coming?"
"I’ve been tired all day and just want to lie in bed and rest, no energy to mess around with you. Go and come back early."
Upon learning that Qin Feng was off to wander some Ghost Market, Xue Xiaochan naturally felt at ease.
Although she had never been to a Ghost Market, she knew what kind of place it was—a gathering of all sorts of people in chaos.
At that sort of eerie location, it was absolutely impossible for any romantic stories to take place. Therefore, she let Qin Feng go without any worry.
With Xue Xiaochan’s permission, Qin Feng dashed off in a flash.
"Faster than a rabbit!" Xue Xiaochan grumbled.
Cauldron Medicine Pavilion.
Shangguan Yan had done her makeup and worn a particularly sexy and womanly cheongsam, sitting gracefully in the lobby, waiting for Qin Feng’s arrival.
The time they had agreed upon was ten o’clock sharp, but Qin Feng did not arrive until a quarter past ten, and he came wobbling in on a shared bicycle.
Shangguan Yan crossed her legs, swinging her white and tender long legs irritably as she scolded Qin Feng, "You’re late, a full fifteen minutes late!"
"There was traffic on the road."
"Traffic? What traffic late at night? You’re riding a bicycle; what traffic could there be? Even if you have to make up an excuse, at least make it a reasonable one!"
"Giving you an excuse was already paying you respect. If you disdain traffic jams as an excuse, then whatever sort of excuse you like, I can make one up for you on the spot."
"Shameless!"
Shangguan Yan cursed, then stood up and walked over to Qin Feng in her high heels with a clip-clop sound.
After sizing up Qin Feng with her spicy gaze, she asked, "You’re dressed differently tonight compared to usual, aren’t you?"
"How so?"
"Normally, you dress in cheap market gear, looking like a village kid stepping into the city for the first time. But tonight, you look quite like someone, almost like a noble gentleman."
Shangguan Yan intentionally swayed in front of Qin Feng, her cheongsam’s neckline revealing a large teardrop cutout. Through the opening, one could glimpse a view that would make any man drool.
Qin Feng wasn’t blind; of course he saw it. But he was well aware that this woman was deliberately teasing him.
So, pretending as though he hadn’t seen a thing, he asked cheerfully, "Shall we head out?"
"Let’s go!" Shangguan Yan approached the shared bike, asking, "How am I supposed to sit on this broken bike of yours?"
"If you don’t like it, you can choose to walk! Or, you could just take a taxi there yourself!"
Qin Feng cheerfully mounted the bike, and just as he was about to set off, Shangguan Yan hopped on the back seat and wrapped her arms tightly around his waist.
