Chapter 1122 - Blue Starfish Mansion (2/2)
“Take me there later.” Tang Xiu nodded.
“What will you do at such a place, though?” asked Ouyang Lulu.
“I want to refine some equipment,” said Tang Xiu.
Ouyang Lulu nodded in response. As she was about to speak, she suddenly heard Tang Xiu’s phone ringing in his pocket.
Tang Xiu stared blankly for a moment. He just took out his cell phone from the interspatial ring. It was rather unexpected to have someone call him now. Then, he took out the phone and looked at the screen, immediately patting his head and wryly smiling. “Alas, I forgot something.”
Having said that, he pressed the answer button and Li Cai’s voice then came out, “Is it you, Divine Doctor Tang?”
“I am. You’ve arrived?” asked Tang Xiu.
“I arrived in Shanghai yesterday afternoon,” said Li Cai. “I called you then, but your cell phone couldn’t be reached. Can we come to visit you now, Divine Doctor Tang?”
“Ah, where are you now?” asked Tang Xiu.
“At the Blue Starfish Mansion,” answered Li Cai.
Tang Xiu pondered for a moment, and then said, “Text me the address and I’ll come over later. We can speak about anything else when we meet.”
“Alright, then. Sorry for troubling you, Doctor Tang,” said Li Cai excitedly.
After hanging up, Tang Xiu looked at Ouyang Lulu and asked, “Anyway, where’s this Blue Starfish Mansion?”
Without waiting for Ouyang Lulu’s answer, the bleached-haired youth sitting not far from them wore a contemptuous look and mocked. ” Hmph , I thought you were a very powerful person, it turns out that you don’t even know the Blue Starfish Mansion at all. Really. The upper-class society is nothing like a hillbilly such as you can understand.”
Tang Xiu just shot him an indifferent glance and his eyes quickly went back to Ouyang Lulu.
The person in attention slammed the table and glared at the youth while glowering. “Don’t you dare run your mouth without concern, or I’ll slap you until your mother won’t be able to recognize you!”
The youth originally wanted to hit Tang Xiu in front of Ouyang Lulu and display his brilliance, but he didn’t expect that it would make her go mad at him, instead. His expression immediately turned ugly and he just glared at Tang Xiu, grunting with a lowered voice. ” Hmph , what a coward, hiding behind a woman.”
“You’ll know whether I’m a coward or not later,” replied Tang Xiu apathetically. “Also, no need to rush to bother them either, Lulu.”
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Lulu immediately understood Tang Xiu’s intention. She didn’t understand why Tang Xiu would compensate these fellas a million yuan before and then brought them here. Now, she figured out that Tang Xiu was waiting to give them the money and then make them pay for the arrogance.
“The Blue Starfish Mansion is located on the coastline southeast of Shanghai. It’s the most beautiful upscale resort area in Shanghai, slightly better than the Paradise Manor. Also, you need to drive to the Bay Port and take a boat from there.”
Tang Xiu nodded and got up. “Alright, let’s go there first.”
The bleached youth abruptly got up and jeered. “What’s up, mate? Did you just find an excuse to escape or something? I already told you I must get a million-yuan compensation from you, got it?”
“The money will be definitely yours. But I’m in a hurry, so I got no time to keep you accompany,” said Tang Xiu. “I’ll send someone to give you the money if you’re willing to stay here. But if you’re not, you can go with me to the Blue Starfish Mansion, and I’ll tell my subordinate to send the money there.”
“Of course I’m going with you! Whom do we ask for the money if you run?” After the bleached-haired youth was done speaking, he straightly took out his cell phone and dialed a number. After his call was picked up by the other party, he smilingly said, “It’s Dalong here, Young Master Kun. Anyway, I’m going to play at the Blue Starfish Mansion with Zizi and the rest, and um… let’s meet there and have a chat.”

The Blue Starfish Mansion was a small island surrounded by bodies of water and was as large as several football fields. The construction of the resort, however, was rather extraordinary. It depicted the exquisiteness of a garden in the southern region and the beauty of the northern landscape, the combination of both through wonderful workmanship created a marvelous creation excelling nature itself and became a sight to behold.
Inside a pavilion, Hu Shaokun hung up the phone, then looked at the 16-plus-years-old-looking girl in front of him and smilingly said, “You can rest your worries about Auntie Zhuang’s illness, Cai’er. I learned something about Divine Doctor Tang. He can definitely cure Auntie’s illness since he’s willing to help. I’ll definitely honor him as honorable guess and treat him to my best.”
“Thank you, Brother Shaokun,” said Li Cai.
The guy turned around and looked at the coastline not far away. His eyes swept at the sea surface and slowly took a breather, before saying, “Cai’er, it’s indeed very important to let Doctor Tang treat Auntie, but you had better let Doctor Tang to examine your body too. It’s been 9 years already, and you’ve always been looking like this. I’m afraid problems with your health will arise in the future.”
Li Cai was silent for a moment. She looked a bit helpless as she replied, “I’ve already checked my condition in many hospitals, both in the country and abroad. The current medical science just can’t examine whatever is happening to my body. I’m afraid…”
Hu Shaokun was back to his senses and sternly looked at her and said, “Cai’er, isn’t the check-up result of auntie’s illness similar even though we’ve brought her to tens of large hospitals? If Divine Doctor Tang can cure her illness, he’ll definitely be able to cure yours, too. But if you don’t want to talk to him about that when he comes, I’ll speak to him myself. I don’t care how much I must pay him.”
