Chapter 173 Pushing One's Luck

"Three days!" Jiang Yi said with a smile.

Hearing that the illness would be completely cured in three days, Xiao Xue's face immediately lit up with a happy smile.

"Brother Jiang, thank you!"

Xiao Xue said gratefully.

Jiang Yi gently patted Xiao Xue's head.

Every time Jiang Yi saw Xiao Xue, he was reminded of his own sister.

His sister's personality when she was young was very much like Xiao Xue's, obedient and sensible.

Jiang Yi checked Xiao Xue's body again.

Seeing that Xiao Xue's condition was stable, he then left her room.

As soon as he returned to his room, there was a knock on the door.

Jiang Yi opened the door and found Liu Hong.

"Aunt Liu, do you need me for something?" Jiang Yi asked.

"I want to talk to you!"

Liu Hong said.

Then, Liu Hong directly entered Jiang Yi's room.

This made Jiang Yi a little embarrassed. Aunt Liu was too peculiar!

She wasn't shy at all.

No matter what, men and women are different!

Her entering his room late at night was not good, no matter how you looked at it.

"What do you think of Xiao Mei?" Liu Hong suddenly asked.

Jiang Yi didn't know what Liu Hong meant by this. After thinking for a moment, he said, "She's very good!"

"That's good!"

Liu Hong took a deep breath and said.

"Don't think of her as someone who is very strong-willed; she is very fragile inside, no different from ordinary girls. I am entrusting her to you; I hope you will take good care of her in the future."

Jiang Yi felt that these words were a bit off.

"So I want to discuss with you, you should marry her first. Your sister, our Dongfang family will continue to help you find her," Liu Hong said to Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi was speechless!

His sister hadn't been found yet, and Liu Hong wanted him to marry Dongfang Mei first.

Liu Hong was pushing her luck!

He definitely couldn't agree to this matter.

He would not agree to anything until his sister was found.

"Aunt Liu, I can't agree to this. Dongfang Mei and I made a prior agreement, and neither of us can break it. If you can really help me find my sister, I will naturally keep my promise!" Jiang Yi said.

"Alright, then you should rest early!"

Liu Hong finished speaking and left the room.

Liu Hong did not continue to pester him.

The night passed without incident!

The next morning, as soon as Jiang Yi got up, a servant delivered an invitation.

Jiang Yi opened it and found that it was from the owner of Huichuntang.

He was invited to Huichuntang. The invitation explicitly stated that Huichuntang would not harm a single hair on Jiang Yi's head. Su Dan Novel Network.

Jiang Yi sneered.

If it were someone else, they wouldn't dare to go.

Dongfang Mei and Liu Hong were having breakfast in the living room.

Seeing the invitation in Jiang Yi's hand, Dongfang Mei couldn't help but ask, "Who sent it?"

"Huichuntang!" Jiang Yi said.

"It seems that Huichuntang wants to negotiate with you!"

Dongfang Mei showed a playful smile.

"Then do you think I should go?" Jiang Yi asked deliberately.

"Yes, of course, you should go!"

Dongfang Mei smiled slightly, "A mere Huichuntang can't play any tricks. I'll let Yingzi go with you. If Huichuntang dares to play any tricks, just destroy them."

"This would be even simpler, and we wouldn't have to keep dealing with Huichuntang."

Jiang Yi was stunned for a moment.

He didn't expect Dongfang Mei to understand him so well.

Dongfang Mei's thoughts were exactly the same as his own.

"Yingzi, you go to Huichuntang with Jiang Yi. Do you know what to do?"

Dongfang Mei's gaze fell on Yingzi.

"I know what to do!" Yingzi nodded.

"If that's the case, then go with Jiang Yi! But I warn you, if Jiang Yi loses even a single hair, I'll hold you accountable!" Dongfang Mei said.

"Yes!" Yingzi replied.

"No need. I can handle it myself. I don't take a mere Huichuntang seriously. I don't need anyone's help."

Jiang Yi refused Dongfang Mei's kind offer.

Dongfang Mei letting Yingzi accompany him was perhaps not for his protection, as he didn't need any protection at all.

Dongfang Mei was trying to monitor him.

Ever since Ye Yanran arrived in Li City, Dongfang Mei had felt a sense of crisis and wished she could have eyes on her person, watching him at all times to feel at ease.

Seeing Jiang Yi refuse, Dongfang Mei ignored him.

The implication was that his refusal was useless.

Jiang Yi was speechless and walked straight out of the living room.

Yingzi immediately followed.

When they reached the villa entrance, Jiang Yi stopped and looked at Yingzi.

"Dongfang Mei sent you to monitor me, didn't she?"

"Mr. Jiang, you misunderstand,"

Yingzi said, "Miss is doing this for your safety. She actually cares about you a lot, but she's too proud to say it."

Jiang Yi was speechless!

Yingzi really thought he was a fool.

How could he not see through Dongfang Mei's intentions?

"Mr. Jiang, don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble. If you don't let me go with you, Miss will definitely punish me."

Yingzi deliberately put on a helpless look.

Jiang Yi took a deep breath.

The people of the Dongfang family were truly good actors.

Not only were Dongfang Mei and Liu Hong masters of acting, but even the bodyguard Yingzi had first-class acting skills.

Jiang Yi didn't say anything further and got into the car, heading towards Huichuntang.

Yingzi followed behind in another car.

Jiang Yi had been to Huichuntang once to buy medicinal herbs, so he was familiar with the way and quickly arrived at the entrance.

When Jiang Yi entered the hall, he scanned the area and noticed there were quite a few people.

However, he did not see Qing Ye, the owner of Huichuntang.

No one even greeted Jiang Yi.

Jiang Yi didn't pay attention and found a chair to sit down.

An hour passed, and Qing Ye still hadn't appeared.

"It seems that Master Qing wants to deliberately put on airs in front of you. He wants you to wait, and may not even see you!" Yingzi said.

"You know a lot!" Jiang Yi said with a smile.

"Of course. I've protected the young lady for so many years and have seen all sorts of situations. However, the young lady is different; she's not an ordinary person, and no one dares to keep her waiting," Yingzi said proudly.

"Do you know Dongfang Mei very well?" Jiang Yi asked.

"Of course!" Yingzi nodded.

"Then tell me, what kind of person is Dongfang Mei? I've been in contact with her for so long, but I still can't see through her." Jiang Yi said.

"The young lady is a very simple girl..." Yingzi said.

Jiang Yi was speechless upon hearing the word "simple."

Even Yingzi probably didn't believe that.

If Dongfang Mei were a simple person, then there would be no simple people in this world.

It seemed that Yingzi couldn't even lie.

The truly simple person was Yingzi himself.

"Let's go!"

Jiang Yi stood up from his chair, ready to leave.
