The next day, Ye Xiaofei did not go to the office.
After a night, Ye Xiaofei also figured some things out.
He must have cared too much about Fang Yunshu, which was why Fang Yunshu did not care about him.
Today, he decided to hang Fang Yunshu out to dry. He’d get used to his own home first.
Meng Zhijing had left early to attend to something.
While Ye Xiaofei was having breakfast, Li Ziyue and Li Zixing were waiting on him.
Ye Xiaofei didn’t let them sit down and eat together. They had to follow the rules. If he pretended to be good to them, it would be difficult to manage them in the future.
After breakfast, the two of them accompanied Ye Xiaofei on a walk around the courtyard.
After the Li family’s care, the courtyard now lacked the golden splendor of a nouveau riche. It was more fresh and natural. The buildings were well-arranged in the natural landscape.
Without Meng Zhijing, the two of them were still a little nervous. They thought that Ye Xiaofei would be touchy with them.
However, Ye Xiaofei just strolled around casually and didn’t touch them.
Ye Xiaofei didn’t think he was a good person, but he was clear about who he could touch and who he couldn’t.
“How many days have you been here?” Ye Xiaofei asked casually.
“Sir, we arrived here the day before yesterday,” Li Ziyue replied.
“Are you familiar with this place?” Ye Xiaofei asked.
“We’ve already walked all over this place,” Li Ziyue replied. “We can almost remember everything.”
“I just got a good look at this place today; it’s indeed not bad,” Ye Xiaofei said.
Ye Xiaofei’s words were meaningless, and he could then that Li Ziyue and Li Zixing were very nervous.
Both of them were trying to guess what he meant.
Ye Xiaofei secretly laughed. This was to make them deliberately confused, so that they would have more respect for him.
As long as there was an intention, smart people could always guess it from your words. But if you had no intention at all, the other party would never be able to guess it.
This was what it meant to win without a move.
His phone rang. It was Tang Yuntong.
“Alliance Leader, I’ve already separated the Tang family from the Star-Moon Alliance; specially inviting Alliance Leader!”
Ye Xiaofei nodded and said, “Two o’clock in the afternoon, you make arrangements.”
“Yes!”
After hanging up the phone, Ye Xiaofei called Sun Mingyuan and asked him to prepare some herbs. Although these herbs were also precious, they were not particularly rare, so Sun Mingyuan had them all.
Half an hour later, Ye Xiaofei arrived at Sun Mingyuan’s place.
Sun Mingyuan and He Yuyao were both there. He Yuyao looked at him with a fervent gaze.
Ye Xiaofei nodded and smiled at He Yuyao.
He Yuyao was stunned.
Ye Xiaofei actually smiled at her. For countless times, Ye Xiaofei had always given her a stern expression. This was really a huge change.
“What are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and follow Master in,” Sun Mingyuan quickly called out to her.
“Coming! Coming!” He Yuyao quickly caught up and stole a glance at Ye Xiaofei. She really wondered if she had earlier imagined it.
But now that Ye Xiaofei was talking to Sun Mingyuan, it was the same as before.
Arriving at the pharmacy where Sun Mingyuan was brewing medicine, Ye Xiaofei said, “Today, I’m going to do something very special. You guys have to study hard.”
Sun Mingyuan and He Yuyao quickly agreed in unison. He Yuyao was also able to put aside her other thoughts when it came to medical skills.
“I’m going to practice alchemy today,” Ye Xiaofei said.
“Alchemy?” Sun Mingyuan instantly cried out in surprise, then stuttered, “Master, you’re talking about alchemy, not brewing of medicinal pills, right?”
Ye Xiaofei nodded and said, “That’s right, it’s alchemy!”
“Heavens! Alchemy! Alchemy!” Sun Mingyuan muttered to himself. He was so excited that he was a little stunned.
“Could it be that there’s no one in this world who knows how to practice alchemy?” Ye Xiaofei asked with a smile.
“I’ve never heard of anyone who can do it,” Sun Mingyuan promptly said.
Ye Xiaofei was a little surprised and said, “Chinese medicine has actually declined to this extent. Then you should learn more.”
“Can I learn it too?” Sun Mingyuan asked excitedly.
“Of course you can. You already have enough foundation and your true qi is not bad. After eating this pill that I refine, your true qi will also increase. In future, you’ll naturally be able to practice it.”
“What about me?” He Yuyao asked anxiously.
“You… Your foundation is too weak, so you won’t be able to use this medicinal pill, unless…” Ye Xiaofei paused for a moment, his expression troubled.
“Unless what?” He Yuyao became even more anxious.
Ye Xiaofei shook his head. “Unless you go through a thorough cleansing. But this is a bit troublesome, so I can’t help you.”
He Yuyao anxiously grabbed Ye Xiaofei’s arm, “Why not? What am I lacking? Is it because 1 don’t have enough talent, or do 1 need something?”
Ye Xiaofei coughed lightly and said, “This… 1 need to personally manipulate and sort out all the meridians in your body.”
“So what? Grandmentor, please help me. Without true qi, 1 feel like everything
I’ve learned is just empty talk.”
Ye Xiaofei shook his head and said firmly, “No, I can’t do this.”
What kind of joke was this? He Yuyao would definitely tell Fang Yunshu about this, and then he would be dead meat..
