C159 (1/2)

”What are these?”

”This is the first part of the diagram on the meridian and acupoints of the human body.”

It was just a single word, and it looked really boring.

But A Ling also said just now, that I can ask her about the words I don't know about and the meaning behind those words. So I didn't hold back at all and asked her about them almost every single time.

I thought that A Ling would get a bit angry from my question, but didn't expect that not only did he not do so, but he even seemed very patient when she explained it to me.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Just as I was enjoying my studies, there was a sudden knock on the door, scaring me into a shiver.

He was truly frightened by the knock on the door. Perhaps it had unwittingly formed a fear of knocking.

”Sir, are you there?” The waiter's voice came from outside the door.

I told A Ling to retract the light barrier, and let the broken jade return to its normal state.

Through the peephole, I saw that the person outside was indeed a waiter. I observed her expression and made sure it was normal before I opened the door.

”What's the matter?”

I saw that this man's uniform was different from the others. He had an apron on, and behind him was a small cart with various tools. He should be the one cleaning the room, but I didn't ask him to clean the room.

”Sir, I'm sorry, but the front desk informed you that the time is up. Please go to the front desk to check out or renew your room.”

I looked at the time. It was already one o'clock in the afternoon. The discussion about medicine with A Ling just now was just too interesting, so much had already passed unknowingly, but she hadn't realized it at all.

”I'm really sorry. After cleaning up, I will immediately check out.”

After cleaning up simply, I headed to the front desk to return to my room. This period of time had already completely exceeded the half hour which Yu Xiaomei had said, so I didn't have any worries when walking out of the hotel.

It was already past one in the afternoon. I didn't feel it just a moment ago, but now that I regained my senses, I felt that my stomach was about to collapse from hunger.

Looking around, I spotted a restaurant on the other side of the road. I quickly ran over and asked the boss to cook us a meal while I chose a seat by the window.

I got some pickled vegetables from the seasoning area and started eating them with the tea provided on the table, hoping that I could suppress my hunger a little bit.

As I was eating heartily, I caught a glimpse of a familiar figure at the door of the high-rise across the street.

”Yu Xiaomei?”

That familiar figure was Yu Xiaomei. At this moment, she was holding onto the arm of a man, talking and laughing as she walked out of the main entrance.

That man was naturally Liu Xiangnan. He was dressed in a suit and a leather suit, his actual age was 56, yet he looked like he was in his thirties. His smile was gentle and kind, it was really hard to associate him with a mafia lord.

When the two of them reached to the gate of the high-end apartment complex, they stopped in their tracks. Liu Xiangnan took out a phone from his pocket and made a call.

Yu Xiaomei on the other hand, continued to look at Liu Xiangnan, as if she saw him as someone who could only hold Liu Xiangnan in her eyes. Everything else in the world were gray in her eyes, making her unable to hold any interest in him.

Liu Xiangnan hung up the phone, and in about two to three minutes, a large car came and stopped in front of them.

Liu Xiangnan very politely opened the door for Yu Xiaomei and invited her in.
