Gu Xiqiao held a piece of ancient jade in his hand, the natural energy around him was so thick that it had already materialized into mist as he looked at the jade piece which became even more amazing after the array was embedded within it.
[Beauty Qiao, the most precious part of this jade was not its chi converging nature, but it could protect the user from all dangers, basically another life! Jiang Shuxuan should be worth 1500 points!] The spirit system spoke in a somewhat jealous tone. Those points could be used to increase it!
“You just upgraded, so wait a minute okay? I promise I'll raise you again soon! ” Gu Xiqiao smiled as he knew what the spirit of the system was thinking, the natural chi around him illuminated himself with a subtle light.
[You really are the prettiest person in Beauty Qiao's world!]
This piece of jade was already perfect from the start, so Gu Xiqiao did not make any modifications. He kept it in his inventory, before taking out the other two jade stones he had bought earlier.
A normal level array was more than enough for Tang Yanling and Yin Jinian, so Gu Xiqiao used 100 points each to pin the array into their jade pieces. This time, nothing special happened except the slightly rippling air.
This piece of jade was still not sculpted, so Gu Xiqiao made his system polish and refine it because he was already too tired to do so.
The system uses 1 point each to sculpt it into a pair of earrings and thumb rings.
The system worked well, of course, and the pair of earrings looked like two teardrops that had an intricate design when viewed up close, and had a subtle sparkle. This was not an effect caused by jade and the natural energy within it, but an incredible system skill in sculpting it so that it could refract light in various ways as light shone on them.
These two earrings looked like works of art from heaven itself that could not be designed by the most experienced designers in the world, and even Gu Xiqiao was amazed by her beauty.
After finishing everything, his mental strength reserve had reached its lowest point, and his mind felt that it was about to explode. Under such pain, however, she still looked calm and collected as usual.
Gu Xiqiao had already gone to bed when Jiang Shuxuan came home, and he hurriedly finished off the food Madam Zhang had prepared for him before going to his study.
The windows of the workspace opened, and the curtains flapped in the wind. Jiang Shuxuan turned on the lights before he took out a random old book from the shelf and sat in his chair comfortably. This was his habit, no matter how busy he was.
The pages of the book he had read had turned yellow with age, and the words on the paper were the writings of the ancient little seal. He was very focused as he read it, and he looked even more handsome as his face was illuminated by the dim light.
He had just turned two pages before his brows furrowed slightly, and a flash of astonishment flashed across his icy eyeballs.
Jiang Shuxuan put down the book and walked over to the sandalwood table, and put on it a perfect piece of white jade with an ancient-looking design and enough spiritual energy that it seemed as if it was flowing out into the room, and this was the first time a look of shock had appeared on the man's face in such a long time.
He did not detect this piece of jade in the slightest when he entered the room .. Has this piece of jade already given birth to his own intelligence?
Although he had read that spirits could be born from jade, this was the first time he had seen such jade directly.
As he held the piece of jade in his hand, he felt a familiar presence from it and smiled. “This child..”.
But then again, he had already guessed that Gu Xiqiao was the one who gave him this piece of ancient jade. As he exclaimed internally about the value of this gift, a gentle smile was seen on his face as he obtained the red rope and used it to hang the ancient jade piece on his neck.
As he sat back down to his chair, he could not focus anymore, continuing to involuntarily rub a piece of jade around his neck with his fingers. Although he knew that it was a special piece of jade, as soon as it was hung on him, he realized that chi naturally flowed towards him many times faster than before. If it continued like this, he would probably be able to level up again quickly, right?
Jiang Shuxuan sighed softly as he put down the book again and walked to the window, letting the cool breeze calm his nerves before he exited the room, turning off the lights behind him. As he walked past Gu Xiqiao's room, his steps paused for a moment in front of a girl's door, and he stood there for a moment, and he stood there for a moment, listen to the calm, steady breath of someone who is asleep before walking away.
The next morning, Gu Xiqiao returned to the mansion just as Jiang Shuxuan walked downstairs.
He was wearing a white shirt, and from one button on the top that was not buttoned, one could see a thin red thread.
But he made it himself?
He didn't pin it to someone who liked this kind of antiques, and he walked over to the table as he started eating breakfast.
Then, he recalled the question he had forgotten to ask earlier. “Hey, Brother Jiang, did you really choose the color for my car?”
“You mean the one Yin Shaoyuan gave you, right?” Yin Shaoyuan raised an eyebrow as he looked at her. “Yes, is there a problem with that?”
Normally, one would choose the color pink for a girl because it was a widely accepted feminine color, but in Jiang Shuxuan's eyes, it was the color of the girl, all colors have their own meaning according to the natural laws of the world. While Gu Xiqiao's fate began to change lately, and he had heavenly merit and luck by his side, there was always a Yin-Chi presence attached to his soul.
Among all the colors that bring good luck and prosperity, pink is the only color that best suits her.
“Not really.” Gu Xiqiao downed a bowl of soup at once, before looking back at the tall and loner man who was in front of him. “May I interview you about why you chose this color for me, Mr Jiang?”
Jiang Shuxuan knew that he was half joking at the moment, so he put down his bowl and wiped his hands with a napkin. “It depends on the person I choose. It would be another color if it was someone else. “
Gu Xiqiao did not really believe this explanation of his, but he simply nodded and replied: “... As long as you are happy.”
“Enough. Are you going out today? ” Jiang Shuxuan got up from his chair and asked.
As she held the boiled egg in one hand, she scrolled her phone with the other hand and replied, “Tong Tong will undergo chemotherapy today, and her nurse is on leave, and she is on leave, and Uncle Mu is still on a business trip, so I'll take care of him. “
Jiang Shuxuan took the key, and while he did not know why Gu Xiqiao was so worried about the child, he did not ask any further. “City hospital, right? Want me to give you a ride? ”
“Give me a minute!” Gu Xiqiao picked up her eggs and quickly downed her milk cup, before calling Madam Zhang who was in the kitchen, “Aunt Zhang, I will not be back for lunch!”
“Are you not going to change your clothes?” Jiang Shuxuan glanced at his sportswear before asking.
What kind of girl doesn't shower or change clothes after returning from a morning run?
Gu Xiqiao scrunched his nose and sniffed the air, before replying, “It's okay, I didn't sweat much today.”
Jiang Shuxuan smiled and nodded, then took him to the city hospital. The girl got out of the car and waved at him to say goodbye, and only stepped into the hospital after the car disappeared from her sight.
He had come to the hospital before, so he knew where Mu Jiatong ward was, and he went to the sixth floor where hematology patients were hospitalized, he said, and there were many other patients who had the same severe illness as Mu Jiatong, so the air itself was filled with despair.
The oldest patients there seem not to be even over thirty years old, and their whole lives should be shortened due to their illness.
Gu Xiqiao stood in the hallway for a while, before he made a decision for himself.
Mu Jiatong lived in a double ward with another boy who had been transferred there recently, and from the looks of it he was only the age of a high school boy. When Gu Xiqiao entered, the two children were sitting on the bed and watching television. Mu Jiatong got an infusion, and the gaze of the boy beside him continued to alternate between the screen and the medicine dripping vigilantly, as if he was his nurse.
“Tong Tong.” Gu Xiqiao stepped into the ward and glanced at the television screen broadcasting the news, and from the looks of it, it was about him.
