(Today was a bit rushed, got back too late, so I’m combining two Chapters into one, not dividing it further, haha!)
——————————————————————————
Hearing Zhang Yuhuan’s crisp response and seeing the beautiful smile on her face, Xiao Yi imdiately knew that her words were just to placate him. He estimated that more than 80% of the ti, she wouldn’t tell him. He couldn’t help but show a bitter smile. After all, he had done as much as he could, and there was nothing more he could do. He certainly couldn’t just go up to Zhang Yuhuan and say, "I’m actually pretty aweso. Tell your troubles, and I’ll help you."
Not to ntion, even if he really said that, Zhang Yuhuan would probably think he was just trying to comfort her, and still wouldn’t believe him.
Furthermore, he also knew that Zhang Yuhuan ant well. After all, the troubles that puzzled the Miss of the Zhang Family were unlikely to be anything trivial. If they were indeed very difficult, he might not be able to help her at all.
Senior, all the best, and may everything go smoothly for you out there!
Quietly watching Zhang Yuhuan get into the black rcedes and disappear into the night, Xiao Yi silently sent out a prayer and then turned to walk towards Azure Waterfront.

After seeing off Zhang Yuhuan, the days that followed seed to revert back to the calm routine Xiao Yi had before. He resud his forr routine of going to school in the morning and returning ho after classes. The only difference was that he now had to prepare breakfast for Liu Jingling in the morning, and provide treatnt for her injuries afterward.
Besides visiting Li Ling’s shop to see her and having a al with her and Fatty Tang, and visiting the Provincial People’s Hospital to treat Elder Mr. Ma and Miss Zhang’s mother, he had not gone out again.
Of course, the visit to the Provincial People’s Hospital was inevitably awkward when he ran into An Lili, making him blush and feel embarrassed for a long ti. Fortunately, Elder Mr. Ma’s health had finally fully improved. He no longer needed to stay in the hospital but could go ho for further recuperation. As for Miss Zhang’s illness, Xiao Yi was also able to step back, so that hospital visit could be his last, sparing him from future visits and giving him so relief.
At the sa ti, he spent more ti on cultivation. Whenever he had a mont, he was dedicatedly engaged in the arduous cultivation of the ’Carefree True Scripture.’
Such days were leisurely yet also felt incredibly fulfilling, especially when he quietened his mind for cultivation. He could feel his cultivation speed visibly increasing. His cultivation power was growing day by day. If he continued at this pace, he hoped to break through to the Fourth Layer of the ’Carefree True Scripture’ within a year.
Even advancing to the Middle Tier of the Condensation period was rely a matter of ti, likely within two or three years.
In these days, he had almost forgotten the agreent with Situ Qingfeng until Chen Jianguo’s phone call had suddenly pulled him out from these rare, leisurely, and fulfilling days.
It brought him back to the reality of life, making him realize that there were still many things around him!
Chen Jianguo’s call was brief, simply telling him that he wanted to host a family gathering and inviting Xiao Yi to join.
Although Chen Jianguo’s voice seed a bit off, seemingly very weary, Xiao Yi didn’t think much of it, knowing that Chen Jianguo was naturally a person burdened with daily affairs and that so tiredness was not unusual.
Chen Jianguo’s invitation was naturally not sothing he would refuse. Chen Jianguo could be considered his closest person in G City, not only because he was a friend of the old man, but also because of their ti together lately, during which he was utterly generous with his help.
Tomorrow night, Half Mountain Villa.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yi silently repeated the address Chen Jianguo had given, which was his ho. Chen Jianguo had offered to pick him up, but he had declined, asking instead for the address so he could go there himself.
It was his first ti visiting Uncle Chen’s ho; should he prepare a gift?
Although he had dined with Chen Jianguo before and they were quite familiar with each other, those tis were always outside or at his Azure Waterfront. This ti, however, the venue for the gathering was Chen Jianguo’s ho, making it the very first ti he would visit there.
Xiao Yi pondered quietly in his heart.
"Ring ring..."
Just as he was pondering, his phone suddenly rang again.
Hm?
Upon hearing the phone ring, Xiao Yi quickly paused his thoughts, picked up the phone, and glanced at the caller ID, only to find it was Liu Yuan, which made him pause briefly. Chen Jianguo had just called, so why was Liu Yuan calling now?
Despite his confusion, he rapidly took the phone and pressed the answer button, "Hello, Uncle Liu?"
"It’s , haha, Young Master Xiao, I hope I’m not disturbing you."
