Chapter 638 - 0640: Subcutaneous Foreign Body
The mental method within this Jade Plate is indeed a perfect match for the Cultivation Technique within the Jade Buddha; it seems Qian Youquan’s sincerity is quite genuine.
Qian Youquan provided the item that I wanted, and since Chu Ge is not one for holding grudges, he immediately agreed to treat Qian Youquan’s secret illness in his leg, which naturally overjoyed Qian Youquan.
This Jade Plate was spotted by him a few years ago in his own auction house, because it was simply too beautiful. Thus, Qian Youquan couldn’t bear to auction it off and kept it for himself instead.
If it weren’t for curing the secret illness in his leg this time, Qian Youquan would never take out the Jade Plate. However, knowing Chu Ge’s fondness for jade and given Chu Ge’s knowledge, even though it’s top-grade jade, he must have seen plenty. Wanting Chu Ge to heal his illness, Qian Youquan could only pay a price, which is why he ultimately gritted his teeth and took out the Jade Plate.
After carefully stowing away the Jade Plate, Chu Ge planned to go treat Qian Youquan’s hidden ailment.
Speaking of the Jade Plate, even without mentioning the mental method hidden inside, its mere appearance would make most people obsessed. Therefore, when Chu Ge accepted the Jade Plate and agreed to treat the hidden ailment, Qian Youquan simply thought it was because Chu Ge valued the preciousness of the Jade Plate and didn’t think otherwise.
This villa, nominally speaking, is just for Chu Ge to stay in for a while, but Mr. Nangong has privately decided to give it to Chu Ge. Due to many relationships, it wasn’t convenient to openly discuss this matter, but the meticulous arrangement in the villa is based entirely on Chu Ge’s preferences.
Shen Congwen still remembers the first time he and Chu Ge moved in here; Chu Ge was slightly surprised at heart. However, he did not overthink it, thinking it was just Mr. Nangong’s special way to make him happy.
After Shen Congwen privately marveled, he thought of more. The status of the Nangong Family is unmatched by ordinary families. Even their Shen Family is very polite towards the Nangong Family, let alone the fact that the Shen Family only has status and power in Shanghai. Under the feet of those in power in the Imperial Capital, they had no influence at all.
Knowing that Old Master Nangong treats Chu Ge in an unusual way, although Shen Congwen works for Chu Ge, he also treated Chu Ge with even more courtesy.
Now seeing Chu Ge accept the Jade Plate, Shen Congwen knew that Chu Ge was about to start treating Qian Youquan, so he put down his tea cup, exchanged a few polite words, and then mentioned he had some errands to run, leaving the entire space to Chu Ge.
Chu Ge had just put away the Jade Plate when he ran into Shen Congwen leaving; Shen Congwen greeted him and then left the villa. Chu Ge understood Shen Congwen’s intentions, so he just nodded his head and said nothing more.
Arriving at the living room, Qian Youquan was probably suffering from another bout of his secret leg disease. He was currently clutching the arms of the sofa tightly, his forehead covered in large beads of sweat, his lips turned pale, and the vibrancy originally in his eyes was reduced to confusion.
