Chapter 102: This Phone Call Was a Disaster
Indeed, this was no ordinary painting!
Xiao Yun faintly sensed that there must be some great secret hidden within this artwork.
As for the author of this painting, according to Duan Haoran, it was created by an Old Painter who had once lived in seclusion on the inkstone. Now, Xiao Yun thought about how he had given this painting to Duan Zhengyi; there must be some profound reason behind it.
As the son of Duan Zhengyi, Duan Haoran probably never imagined the magical nature of this painting. It seemed that no one in the Duan Family had noticed its significance. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been casually hung in a corner of the Duan Family's living room.
Xiao Yun decided that after he resolved matters concerning Duan Qingxue, he would personally visit Yanshan.
He even thought that upon arriving in Yanshan, he might encounter that celestial-like girl he had seen in the painting.
Then, thinking of Duan Qingxue, a wave of emotions surged within Xiao Yun. He felt that his connection with her was entirely orchestrated by fate; her beauty and kindness made him love her deeply.
No matter what, he would not allow Wilson to take her away.
Xiao Yun took the painting down from the wall and placed it back into his ring.
He needed to keep this painting with him so he could study it at any time.
Knock, knock, knock!
"Brother, are you there?"
At that moment, Nie Xiaoqian knocked and walked in.
"Sister Qian, did you need something?" Xiao Yun asked with a smile.
Nie Xiaoqian told him that she had just received a call from Ouyang Bing, who said that she had already arranged her job, and she could start working at the Criminal Investigation Team tomorrow.
Wow, it seems Ouyang Bing is really impatient. She mentioned at noon that she would inform Nie Xiaoqian later, but unexpectedly, she rushed to finalize everything after returning.
In Xiao Yun's view, it wasn't good for Nie Xiaoqian to just stay in the villa. If there was something for her to do, it would be beneficial for her, at least it wouldn't be so stifling.
"Nie Xiaoqian, this is great news. Brother supports you!" Xiao Yun said with a smile.
Nie Xiaoqian replied happily, "Thank you, Brother!"
"Why are you thanking me? You should thank Ouyang Bing!"
As he spoke, he took out a small booklet from his ring and handed it to her, saying, "Sister, your spiritual root is quite good. I have a manual here; you can refer to it for cultivation during your free time. It will help you develop some self-defense skills!"
The illustrations in the booklet were actually drawn by Xiao Yun based on the images presented by the colorful Heart Pearl during his cultivation. It was specially left for Nie Xiaoqian.
On the surface, Nie Xiaoqian seemed innocent and lively, but she was too fragile inside, which worried Xiao Yun greatly. Every time he thought of her being bullied at the Emperor Hotel, it pained his heart.
Nie Xiaoqian's spiritual root was definitely not inferior to his own. With this manual as a reference, given time, she would surely achieve some progress.
Nie Xiaoqian carefully accepted the booklet; for her, anything given by Xiao Yun was the most precious.
"Brother, thank you so much!"
Xiao Yun deliberately maintained a stern face and said, "From now on, don’t mention 'thank you' in front of me again; otherwise, be careful or I’ll spank you!"
A playful remark made Nie Xiaoqian blush deeply, her face as radiant as a peach blossom, looking almost like she could drip with water.
Especially her pair of assets, estimated to be 34D, which were full and perky, slightly trembling with her breath, incredibly enticing.
“Brother, I’ve noticed that Sister Bing has developed feelings for you!” Nie Xiaoqian suddenly said with a mischievous smile.
Xiao Yun chuckled, “You can even see that?”
“Of course! A woman's heart is the most sensitive!”
As she spoke, Nie Xiaoqian suddenly clung to one of Xiao Yun's arms like a child and giggled, “Don’t worry, brother. No matter how many women you have, I won’t be jealous!”
Uh-oh, Xiao Yun felt another wave of Frenzied Sweat!
He patted her cute little face and grinned, “Sister, you’re so good to me. If we’re talking about being understanding, it couldn’t be more fitting for you!”
At that moment, Nie Xiaoqian seemed to remember something and said, “Brother, I can’t chat with you anymore. I have plans with Fang Xiaolu tonight; it’s almost time for me to go.”
“Alright!” Xiao Yun nodded.
After Nie Xiaoqian left, only Xiao Yun remained in the room, and he suddenly felt a bit bored.
After thinking for a moment, he decided to call Ouyang Bing.
“Beast, are you looking for me?” came Ouyang Bing's fiery voice from the phone.
Xiao Yun chuckled and said, “Thank you…”
"Why are you thanking me?"
"Thank you for arranging a job for me."
"Hmph, I was just worried about Nie Xiaoqian's safety around a beast like you."
"Hey, do you believe I can hang you up and spank you? Hmph, am I really that much of a beast?" Xiao Yun pretended to be angry.
From the phone, Ouyang Bing burst into a hearty laugh.
This Freak sounded so expressive when he laughed.
Xiao Yun was someone who couldn't keep things to himself. Remembering Ouyang Xiaomei's illness, he hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and decided to lay it all out. " Sister Bing, I'm going to talk seriously. This morning, I actually found a way to treat Xiaomei's illness!"
"What? Is that true? Beast, why didn't you tell me that when I was with you?" Ouyang Bing was practically ecstatic.
For her, nothing in the world was more important than curing Xiaomei's illness.
She never expected this beast would actually find a way to treat Xiaomei's condition in such a short time.
After hearing Xiao Yun's words, her mood naturally became very excited.
Although she spoke bluntly, she truly admired Xiao Yun a hundred times over in her heart.
Little did she know, at that moment, Xiao Yun sighed and said, " Sister Bing, it's not that I don't want to tell you; I really can't bring myself to say it."
"What’s so hard about telling me how to treat my sister?" Ouyang Bing suddenly felt a sense of alarm at his hesitant tone.
Xiao Yun scratched his head, looking quite frustrated as he said, "Because to cure Mei's condition, the process is a bit troublesome, a bit special, a bit complicated, and also a little..."
Upon hearing Xiao Yun's words, Ouyang Bing became increasingly anxious. What was going on with this guy? Why was he always so vague in his speech?
"What else is there? Beast, just tell me!" Ouyang Bing shouted.
Xiao Yun stomped his foot and resolutely said, "Uh, fine, let me put it simply. This illness of Xiaomei's, in short, to sum it up, for me, it's quite treatable. I believe she will cooperate well. The problem might... possibly arise from you. I'm just afraid that you..."
"Beast, what are you trying to say? The more I listen, the more confused I get. How can treating Xiaomei's illness have anything to do with me?"
"This..."
"Damn it! Talking to you is driving me crazy!"
Ouyang Bing suddenly burst out with a curse and said, "Beast, where are you? I'm coming over right now. We need to talk face to face!"
Buzz!
Xiao Yun felt as if his head had exploded!
He immediately realized that this phone call had gone terribly wrong... The Pinnacle of Elegance has been updated.
