The butler had just brought Shangguan Xuelan to the living room when Han Yanran hurriedly went up to her.
“Miss Shangguan, I’ve troubled you again this time.”
Shangguan Xuelan waved her hand and said, “It’s no trouble at all. By the way, these are all my friends.”
Han Yanran smiled and hurriedly let them in. Zhao Xiyao came in and used her eyes to size up the girl in front of her. She saw that her face was pale to the point of being transparent. She had been sick for a long time, and her body was even more weak.
This didn’t reduce her beauty at all but added a bit of charm to her.
“You look much better than before. Have you been taking your medicine on time recently?”
After Shangguan Xuelan finished taking her pulse, she let out a light sigh. Her pulse had finally stabilized. Previously, her pulse had been unstable and she had been surrounded by a deathly aura. She would not have lived for more than a month.
“Yes, Brother will always make sure I finish the medicine.” Han Yanran smiled sweetly. As long as she could stay alive and stay by her brother’s side, she was happier than anything else.
Zheng Guanghe couldn’t sit still anymore. He looked left and right but couldn’t see Han Xing.
“Where’s the God Gamer? Where did God Gamer go?”
“Are you talking about my brother? He was on the phone with his partner upstairs and would come down in a while.”
Hearing Han Yanran’s explanation, Zheng Guanghe finally calmed down.
Ten minutes ago, Pan Guowei suddenly called for no other reason than Lin Run.
This was the first offline player competition, so Rainbow City could humiliate itself.
The Lin family was a famous family in Sichuan Province. If Rainbow City humiliated itself, the Lin family’s reputation would also be negatively affected. After all, the organizer was personally chosen by Lin Run. There could not be any mistakes.
“That’s what happened. President Lin wants us to prepare all the rewards for him to see within a week.”
On the other end of the phone, Pan Guowei’s voice made Han Xing’s voice turn cold. Han Xing replied, “Show it to him, or let him choose? I don’t have time to deal with him here. I’ll just reject this matter. I want to see what he can do.”
Han Xing knew what Lin Run was thinking. He wanted to use his subordinates to curry favor with the higher-ups.
If he didn’t get this project, Han Xing might have considered it. However, Lin Run made things difficult for him last time and even wanted him to take out good things to please others. That’s a foolish dream of his.
“That’s what my son said too. Moreover, the goods in the Second World are so expensive. The budget is not much to begin with, and he wants us to bleed heavily.”
Pan Guowei did not have much contact with the Second World. The high-quality weapons and pills in the Second World were rarely produced by the company behind the game. It was already a reward for the players to be able to take out one or two of them for auction every year.
Even if they really wanted to buy these things, there was no market for them. If there was one in the market, it would have been snatched up by the top tycoons. Why would they leave it for ordinary players?
This was the reason why craftsmen were sought after by various guilds in the Second World.
Anyway, Han Xing and the others had already gotten the project contract. Lin Run was thinking about how to cause trouble. At most, it would only increase their obstacles but it would not affect them too much.
After a short discussion on the phone, Han Xing saw Shangguan Xuelan and the others as soon as he went downstairs.
Today, Zhao Xiyao was dressed in an especially elegant manner, looking as fresh as a blooming lily.
“You guys are here.”
Han Xing had just stepped forward to greet them, but Zheng Guanghe could not wait any longer. He rushed to Han Xing and shouted happily,” God Gamer, God Gamer, I’ve improved recently! Wait for a while, I’ll play my video for you.”
Han Xing felt helpless, but he still nodded. He said, “Alright, I’ll check on your progress later.”
“It’s all thanks to you this time. However, I don’t have any use for your 1 billion. 1’11 return it to you when the time comes.”
Zheng Guanghe waved his hand heroically and said, “Sister Zhao has already invested one billion in you. I’ll invest in you too. God Gamer, you can’t be biased. You only want hers and not mine.”
Han Xing was amused by his words. He asked, “Aren’t you afraid that 1’11 lose all your one billion yuan?”
“Nope. If you lose it, then so be it. My parents still have some. I’ll ask them for it later.”
If Zheng Guanghe’s parents knew that their son was so extravagant outside, they would probably break his legs.
Shangguan Xuelan saw Han Xing and gave him a look. Han Xing immediately understood what she meant and nodded slightly.
“What do you want to eat for lunch? 1 just ordered some seafood last night. I’ll go get it for all of you.”
Shangguan Xuelan immediately jumped up and said, “I’ll learn from you too. When the time comes, I’ll buy the most expensive ones and rip you off.”
After the two of them walked out, Shangguan Xuelan’s expression instantly turned solemn.
“What have you found out?”
Shangguan Xuelan nodded and explained seriously, “I saw that she had several cases of the witchcraft poison acting up and had already injured her heart. The medicine that Mr. Mo gave was good, but it can only prolong her life. Her body is too deficient.”
Hearing this, Han Xing’s expression froze. He asked, “Is there any way?”
“I don’t dare to prescribe medicine rashly now. I have to think about it carefully.”
After the two of them got into the car, Shangguan Xuelan kept fiddling with the phone in her hand. After thinking for a long time, she gritted her teeth and said, “Guild Master, you owe me a huge favor. I have to contact my lifelong enemy!”
Han Xing was confused by her words, but he still replied, “Don’t worry, I’ve always owed you a favor. When the time comes, I’ll agree to whatever you want me to pay you back.”
Shangguan Xuelan immediately dialed the number. Very quickly, a female voice with a hint of disdain picked up.
“Shangguan Xuelan? Why did you call me?”
“Humph!” Shangguan Xuelan snorted coldly, “I have a patient in my hands. Her condition is strange. The void inside her is too serious. Do you want to come over and take a look?”
“Whoa!” The female voice on the other end was obviously excited. She asked, “To think there would be a day you come and beg me? Then you’ll have to correct your attitude.”
Shangguan Xuelan suppressed the discomfort in her heart. She snapped, “If you don’t dare to come, then don’t come. And you still want me to beg you? I don’t even care about your technique. I’m just calling to tell you that I’ve already mastered the Shangguan family’s Nineteen Needle technique.”
“How is that possible?! I don’t believe it. Send me the address immediately. I want to see it myself.”
Shangguan Xuelan smiled smugly. No one could resist this provocation.
She pretended to be reluctant as she said, “I’ll send you the address. If you don’t come in half an hour, I’ll leave.”
After she hung up, she immediately said to Han Xing, “Guild Master, I’ve invited a powerful person for you.”
“You even invited your lifelong enemy over. Now, I owe you a huge favor.”
“Of course!” Shangguan Xuelan didn’t expect the guild master to joke with her.
She crossed her arms and said, “From now on, you have to listen to me..”
