The doctors who had cleaned Mu Rong Xie's wounds reported to Grandpa Sang that the maggots had disappeared completely after a week. It made Grandpa Sang relieved. He was still investigating the cause of this strange situation. Now they also need to think about how to make sure the wound recovers back to normal.
Mu Rong Xie was overjoyed when he heard the news that the maggots inside his wounds had completely disappeared. So, he wanted to open his wound.
Su Yu Qing and Mu Yian came to visit him. They were relieved when they heard the news. However, when the nurse opened the package, Mu Rong Xie's eyes opened wide. He could not believe that his condition was so bad and looked so ugly.
“Bu, my face.. I'm disabled.” Mu Rong Xie cried.
“Don't worry, dear. It'll heal. You will be beautiful again.” Su Yu Qing tried to calm her daughter down even though she was also worried when she saw Mu Rong Xie's condition.

“Before I forget, next week, Long Family will be having a party.” Feng Yue told Yu Qi.
“Party? For what?” Yu Qi asked.
They'll come out later to hang out.
“My dear, Great General Long will retire from the military.” Feng Yue stated the reason. “And, the whole Long Family will be present.” She added.
“I understand.” Yu Qi nodded.
“Actually this is why I came here. Grandpa asked me to tell you. Here's the invitation card. The entire Tang Family is invited.” Feng Yue handed out the invitation card.
“I understand. Thank you.” Yu Qi took the invitation card.
“Yu Qi, you have to be careful that day. Many families wanted to push their daughters towards Brother Hui. You have to defend it.” Feng Yue smiled.
“It looks like you will enjoy the show.” Yu Qi narrowed his eyes.
“Yu Qi, please don't squint your eyes like this. You look like my Brother Hui.” Feng Yue stepped back.
“Now you know how to be afraid.” Yu Qi rolled his eyes.
Feng Yue smirked. “Yu Qi, I think you don't need to worry. Brother Hui will not turn away from you.”
“Huh, let's go now.” Yu Qi urged Feng Yue to come out now.
Aunt Ming Yue had them use their family driver because they did not go out today. So, Yu Qi did as her aunt said. Yu Qi asked the driver to send them to the shopping mall.
“Young lady, you can call when you want to come back. I'll wait.” Said the driver.
“Oke thank you.” Yu Qi nodded.
The two women entered the shopping mall. Since it is a work day, people are not so much around the shopping mall. They walked around to see if there was anything that could catch their attention.
Yu Qi see signboard ‘History’. It was the massage spa she visited last time with her aunt. She suspects that Yung Ha Ren knows who her parents are. His behavior towards Yu Qi was very suspicious. He seemed to see other people every time he saw Yu Qi.
“Yu Qi... Yu Qi...” Feng Yue called several times.
Yu Qi realized that he was in a daze. He turned to Feng Yue. “Sorry. I'm in a daze.”
“Actually I want to buy something for grandfather as his retirement gift. But I guess I won't find anything suitable here.” Feng Yue sighed.
“Suggest we go to the antique store.” Yu Qi suggested.
“Yeah, I don't know where we can find an antique store.” Feng Yue smirked.
“Maybe we should ask someone.” said Yu Qi.
“Wait. Let me ask Uncle Guan if he knows or not.” Uncle Guan was the driver before.
“Oh, that's a good idea.” Feng Yue agreed.
Yu Qi pulled out his phone and called Uncle Guan.
“Yes, young lady? Are you done?” Uncle Guan asked.
“No, actually I want to ask if you know where I can find an antique store?” Yu Qi asked politely.
“Antique shop? The antique street was a few blocks from the shopping mall where the young lady was standing at this time.” Uncle Guan replied.
“Then, can you send us there?” Yu Qi asked.
“Of course, young lady and Miss Feng, you two can wait in the same place as the one I dropped off earlier.” said Uncle Guan.
“Good.” Yu Qi ended the call.
“Come go. Uncle Guan said the antique street was a few blocks from here. We're going there.” Yu Qi pulled Feng Yue's hand.
“Good.” Feng Yue started walking.
When they arrived, Uncle Guan was already waiting for them. They immediately entered the car.
“Uncle Guan, are many antiques sold there?” Feng Yue asked.
“I've been there. There are many antique shops there. Even people sell their antiques on the side of the road. That's why this street is called the Antique Way. However, not all antiques are genuine. After you buy an antique, you can go to the appraisal store to find out if the antique is real or not.” Uncle Guan explained that he understood about Antique Street.
“So. It's like a gamble.” Yu Qi nodded a few times.
“Huh, I'm really not good at picking this kind of thing.” Feng Yue sighed. He thought that he was not a lucky person. He was afraid that whatever he chose was a fake thing.
“Do not worry. I'll help you.” Yu Qi patted Feng Yue's back.
They arrived at the Antique Road. Unlike those shopping malls, there were many people wandering around here. However, most of them are old people.
“Let's walk and see if we can find anything of value. Does Grandpa Long like anything special?” Yu Qi asked about Long Fei Yi's preference.
“Yeah, my grandfather likes dragon beasts.” thought Feng Yue.
“I understand. Let's go and have a look first.” said Yu Qi.
They both are walking. They saw the items being sold at the roadside stall.
‘I feel something.’ Bo Ya suddenly said something in Yu Qi's mind.
‘Something? What like?’ Yu Qi asked.
‘Something from our space is here.’ Bo Ya explained.
‘Oh so. Where's it?’ Yu Qi was happy to see the antiques from his room.
“The wine is all the way.” Bo Ya told him.
‘Oke.’ Yu Qi nodded. He doesn't want to do it right now. Because Feng Yue seemed to be looking for something.
Feng Yue stopped at one stall. His eyes caught something. He leaned over to look at the item closer. That item was a Chinese dragon cup. It looked like an English wine glass but its cup holder was an eastern dragon standing proudly. The dragon hand was like holding something like a ball. It was made of something like iron but Yu Qi was unable to determine what the material was.
“Yu Qi, I like this.” Feng Yue called Yu Qi and pointed to the dragon cup.
“I think it's also beautiful.” Yu Qi nodded.
“Young girls, don't be fooled. That guy's a liar. All the so-called antiques he sold were just trash.” The other old man who was in the stall across suddenly spoke to them.
Feng Yue turned her head to Yu Qi when she heard that statement.
“Old Brother Dong Fool, just take care of your kiosk. You're not much better than me.” The man in front of Yu Qi shouted furiously.
“Can we touch this dragon cup briefly?” Yu Qi asked the man.
The man turned to Yu Qi and smiled at the girl. “Of course, you can. Please.”
Yu Qi gestured to Feng Yue to take the dragon cup. Feng Yue took the dragon cup. It weighed more than Feng Yue had expected. His surface was also smoother than he had expected. He became more interested in the dragon cup.
The man smiled when he saw Feng Yue liked the dragon cup. This girl might buy this dragon cup. It's been a long time since he's had customers. So since he managed to obtain it, he wanted to exploit more money in the dragon cup.
The man did not expect that his expression had been observed by another girl. Yu Qi saw the greed on the man's face. He had already guessed what was inside the man's mind. The man might want to sell the dragon cup at a higher price than his usual price. Well, if he succeeded. Yu Qi sneered.
“Yu Qi, I love this dragon cup.” Feng Yue told Yu Qi.
“Then you can buy it.” Yu Qi nodded.
Turning to the man, Feng Yue asked. “How much is this?”
“50rb RMB.” The man said the price.
Feng Yue frowned. He doesn't have that kind of money. He sighed. I think he should give up on this dragon cup.
However, Yu Qi stepped forward. “Master, are you sure it's 50K RMB?” Yu Qi showed a cold smile.
The man was shocked when he faced Yu Qi once again. The aura that this girl possessed was very different from before. He clenched his fists. He should not be intimidated by a girl like her.
“Yes, I can lower the price to 30K RMB.” The man lowered the price.
“Really? Are you sure?” Yu Qi could not believe this was the price.
“Nona, I can not lower the price more than this.” The man doesn't want to lose.
“1K.” Yu Qi stated the price he wanted.
“Nona..” The man wants to negotiate again.
“Yue, put that thing down. We're going to go.” Yu Qi told Feng Yue and was about to leave.
Feng Yue followed Yu Qi's words and put the dragon cup back. He might not be destined to buy a dragon cup for his grandfather. He walked away from the stall following Yu Qi.
“Yeah, don't go yet. All right, I'll sell it with 1K RMB.” The man shouted.
It had been a long time since he had sold anything. He thinks he can get 50K for today. But the girls decided not to buy it for anything, he felt 1K RMB was more than enough. It's better than getting nothing.
The two girls stopped behind them. Feng Yue turned around.
“Bulkah?” Feng Yue asked.
“Of course. This is 1K RMB.” The man showed a pleasant smile to Yu Qi. He thought he had to convince this girl to buy a dragon cup.
Yu Qi glanced at the man. Then he turned to Feng Yue and nodded.
Feng Yue took out a book check and wrote on the spot. He actually wanted to pay by credit card but he could not see anything like a swipe machine. He has no cash on him. So he could use that check.
Feng Yue was happy because she had already chosen a gift for her grandfather. The man felt very desperate. This girl obviously came from a rich family. If the other girl did not interfere, she might earn more money today.
The other stall owner was very envious when he saw the man got 1K RMB with his junk. So, the other shop owners scrambled for the attention of the two girls. Who knew those girls might also be interested in their things?
