My goal is just a step away now! Jun Wu Yi felt his heart beat faster with excitement and eagerness to know the outcome of the treatment.
Without further ado, Jun Mo Xie immediately left to pay a visit to his beloved friend, Tang Yuan. He was afraid that the idiotic fatty might have wasted the herb or spoiled it. If he had to personally find the herb again, it would cost the Jun family both time and money, not to mention the mental anguish and the ginormous effort required for the search. As for matters such as these, the longer one delayed, the more prone the situation was to turn into misfortune.
Placed on a sedan, stretched and laid back, Third Young Master Jun Mo Xie slowly arrived at the Tang Residence. He came to the door only to be greeted by the sight of a big round meatball-shaped human walking out from within the residence wearing a skin-coloured gown. Today, Tang Yuan, the Tang Clan’s young master, wore a dress which was characteristic to his physique to such an extent that very few would find something amiss if rice was served in a bowl with him as a meatball dish on the side plate…!
“Brother, how come you came here today? Has your body completely recovered from its injuries? You probably came over because you were stifled and bored and wanted to play with your brother, right?” Tang Yuan looked at Jun Mo Xie with a pleased look and his voice contained a hint of concern, but one could plainly see the joy and sincerity within his actions and words!
“I came to see you”, Jun Mo Xie lifted the sedan’s curtain and continued. “What, are you going out somewhere?”
“Ah…yes! I’m going to the Magnificent Jewel Hall to enjoy and bid on a few items. There is actually some good stuff there today. Grandpa let me go to have some fun today”, Tang Yuan reached inside his robes and bought out a big stack of bills and money. He whistled and clapped in excitement and his face was lit up just like a laughing buddha! “This time, I was in fact ordered to check things out properly and look out for some exquisite items. I was even handed such a huge pile of money. Jun Mo Xie, I say that we both go there and bid together, what say?”
“I don’t believe you’ll pawn your wife this time, right? Jun Mo Xie jested.
“Hey, don’t mention those measly things”, Tang Yuan’s perfectly round and white face had a few black lines and wrinkles all over as he continued to speak. “I was framed and set up during that time! If we played under normal circumstances, your brother here is simply the gambling god who is spoken of within the legends!”
“I wish I could believe that broken mouth of yours. In fact, I might be better off believing in the existence of ghosts in this world rather than that mouth”, Jun Mo Xie wrinkled his nose and his face on a whole became solemn. While ignoring the invite made by Tang Yuan, he got straight to the point and asked, “Don’t be in a hurry to leave and spend away your wealth. There is something important because of which I’ve come looking for you.”
“What is the matter? Let your brother know all your worries!” Tang Yuan blinked a few times and said earnestly.
