Chapter 845: Being Half-Hearted Is Hurtful

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

Emotional issues were a topic Tang Xiu never wanted to discuss with Long Zhenglin, nor did he want to express his opinions or explain his stance. On account of the fact that he did like Zhang Xinya, it was needless to say that he would never hurt her, but without major affectionate feelings, he could only be half-hearted and perfunctory, which would hurt her the most.

Long Zhenglin himself knew Tang Xiu for a long time and naturally understood his character. Apart from forcing a smile, he could only turn back to the room and continue to sleep.

Inside the room of the presidential suite 1206, Zhang Xinya straightly returned to the main bedroom and burst into tears. The wound created by Tang Xiu’s words inside her heart was very deep and the pain she felt was like having her heart sheared by a knife.

Outside the room, regrets fully covered Zhang Xiaoyu’s pretty face since she was the one who enthusiastically told her about Tang Xiu just to make her happy, but that unscrupulous and unfeeling bastard just made Zhang Xinya suffer.

‘What should I do?’

She didn’t want to see Zhang Xinya drown in sadness. She may be her new manager, but she sincerely hoped that Zhang Xinya could work and live in happiness.

‘The opening sale ceremony of the Golden Goblet Emperor Gauze villa complex the day after tomorrow is very important, so Sis Xinya will definitely attend the event and sing a few songs, but her current mood will definitely affect the day. If she keeps crying, she will lose her voice and have swollen eyes, negatively affecting her.’

Zhang Xiaoyu was so anxious that she wandered around the room for a long time. Suddenly, she remembered another person and immediately went back to her room, hurriedly grabbed her mobile phone, and dialed a cell number.

“Hey, how haven’t you rested yet, Xiaoyu? Why are you calling me so late?” Zhang Xinyue’s lazy voice came from the phone.

“Big Sis Xinyue, I seem to have made a mistake,” said Zhang Xiayu bitterly.

“What mistake did you make?” Asked Zhang Xinyue, “Did my sister scold and reprimand you?”

“We’re now in Qinglin County at the foothill of Qingcheng Mountain. We were invited to participate in a business’ publicity event, Sis Xinyue,” said Zhang Xiaoyu hurriedly. “But I didn’t expect to meet that bad guy, Tang Xiu, in the same hotel we’re checking in. Sis Xinya waited for him for a long time, and finally met him, but…”

After narrating the whole story, Zhang Xiaoyu continued, “Sis Xinya is now crying so badly. She’s truly broken-hearted. Big Sis, what should I do here?”

There was no reply from Zhang Xinyue from the mobile for a long while. Only after Zhang Xiaoyu loudly asked did Zhang Xinyue speak in a deep voice, “When will the commercial event be held?”

“The day after tomorrow,” hurriedly answered Zhang Xiaoyu.

“I’ll rush to get there tonight if it’s the day of after tomorrow so I can catch up tomorrow,” said Zhang Xinyue. “But remember, you must stay with her and wait there before I arrive.”

“Alright.”

Early in the morning, when the first ray of sunshine illuminated the bedroom, Tang Xiu had just concluded several hours of cultivation. He then took a shower and dressed up before visiting the hotel’s dining room for breakfast, then quickly left the hotel. He heard from Wang Tao yesterday that Qinglin County also had a medicinal herbs market, so he was preparing to visit the premises.

The Eastern municipality.

The Qinglin County’s medicinal herbs market was not large, but the faint scent of medicinal herbs already drifted in the air even when Tang Xiu had yet to enter it. He didn’t want to waste time and strode fast to the entrance of the market and immediately released his spiritual sense to search for previous herbs.

His spiritual sense quickly observed all the medicinal herbs in the market in just ten minutes. What made him pleasantly surprised was that he found several previous herbs and with sufficient high age at that. After spending some money to buy them, he quickly lost interest in staying here.

“You’ll need to wait for half an hour if you want to buy more precious herbs, Boss Tang. Today is the weekly opening time of our Qinglin County’s medicinal herbs market, so a batch of medicinal ingredients will be delivered here at 9 o’clock. Of course, you can expect quite a fierce competition. Some people who do herb business in the surrounding major cities will also come here to buy those herbs, too,” Cheng Yan, the owner of the Hall of Myriad Herbs, spoke with a smile. He felt that he had just gained a fortune from the two precious herbs Tang Xiu bought from him. Moreover, nearly half of the medicinal ingredients delivered in the opening week of the market were usually purchased by the apothecary of hi his Hall of Myriad Herbs from various major villages.

After hearing it, Tang Xiu inquired, “Are there any precious herbs being sent over here?”

“There should be.” Cheng Yan nodded and said, “There have been precious herbs appearing every week, even though the quantity is very few. You see, we are very close to Qingcheng Mountain and many people here know about medicinal herbs, to begin with. Especially now that there’s the rapid transmission of information, those herbalists know the value of the precious herbs, so we have a lot of people to gather the herbs. There are even some who are brave enough to go to the depths of Qingcheng Mountain to find them.”

“If so, then I’ll be waiting here,” said Tang Xiu.

As half an hour passed by, several cars headed into the Qinglin medicinal herb market. Two of them then parked at the entrance of the Hall of Myriad Herbs as it was the largest and oldest apothecary store in the entire market. Additionally, many herbalists also visited this store to sell their goods, even though the store itself had its own apothecaries to collect herbs. Unless the medicinal herbs were unable to enter the eyes of his store, half of the delivered medicinal ingredients were usually taken by the Hall of Myriad Herbs.

‘River Root Reed?’

Even when the two cars hadn’t yet unloaded their medicinal herbs cargo, Tang Xiu had already found some precious herbs with his spiritual sense. However, the appearance of such a herb here surprised him somewhat.

There was a river in the Immortal World known as the Ebbtide Heavenly River. The riverside of the said river had rich Yin energy, making it the endemic place for this River Root Reed. Soon after discovering this, some powerful immortals discovered that the River Root Reed would grow rapidly if they were to feed the river with corpses.
