Perhaps because she felt that she asked too directly, Lin Ruoxue's cheeks turned slightly red and she quickly found an explanation.
"It's just that Ji Man's driving skills are not as good as yours, and I'm still calculating your salary as normal. You can't be absent from work for too long!"
"Of course, I have no intention of urging you to come back. You should focus on General Gu's situation!"
Seeing that Lin Ruoxue was getting more and more confused as she explained, Su Chen couldn't help but laugh.
After hearing his laughter, Lin Ruoxue felt even more confused and couldn't help but snorted in embarrassment: "Why are you laughing!"
After saying this, she felt a little regretful.
Because before making this call, she had never thought about quarreling with Su Chen.
But Su Chen was not angry.
After spending so long with Lin Ruoxue, he knew that Lin Ruoxue was just shy.
"I should be busy here for a while longer."
"knew!"
After a quick response, Lin Ruoxue shook her legs in confusion, stared at the jade bracelet and continued softly: "It's already quite late, so I won't bother you."
"Anyway, after you're done in the capital, just come back as soon as possible!"
"No problem, Mr. Lin!"
Su Chen chuckled and agreed happily.
The corners of Lin Ruoxue's lips quirked up again, and she hung up the phone with a hum.
Lying back on the bed, Su Chen unconsciously recalled the scene that happened while massaging Lin Ruoxue in his mind, and couldn't help but sigh again.
"What a pity. Without Mr. Lin, it would be hard to see him without his black silk stockings!"
With this regret in mind, he gradually fell asleep.
The night passed suddenly, and when Su Chen opened his eyes again, the cold light of the morning had already poured into the bedroom through the curtains.
When he arrived at the restaurant, Gu Qingshi and An Xiaoyun were already having breakfast.
"Hurry up, Qing Shi just made an appointment with Mr. Dugu to meet at eight o'clock, we have to hurry up!"
As she spoke, An Xiaoyun stuffed a mouthful of buns into her mouth. Her small face was bulging with the buns, like a hamster with its cheek pouches filled with food.
Su Chen couldn't hold it back for a moment and reached out to poke her bulging cheek.
An Xiaoyun immediately turned her head, not daring to open her mouth, and could only stare at him with her round eyes and muttered.
Lu Qingshi, who had been eating quietly, burst out laughing when she saw this, and actually raised her hand to poke An Xiaoyun's other cheek.
An Xiaoyun's eyes widened even wider in an instant, she quickly swallowed the bun in her mouth, and pouted her lips at Lu Qingshi in grievance.
"Qing Shi, why are you like this!"
"Because it's so cute."
As she spoke, Gu Qingshi stuffed a bun into her mouth gracefully, with a smile on her face.
Seeing that she had rarely smiled so happily recently, An Xiaoyun stopped blaming her. Instead, she stood up with a smile and stuffed the bun in her hand into Lu Qingshi's mouth.
Looking at An Xiaoyun with a look of surprise, Lu Qingshi couldn't help laughing again after swallowing the bun in her mouth.
Su Chen also smiled when he saw this.
During this period of time, Lu Qingshi had been tense, and even if she smiled occasionally, she would still laugh unnaturally.
Now that she has finally relaxed, everyone is happy for her.
"Okay, let's hurry up and don't let Mr. Dugu wait in a hurry!"
"Okay~"
After hearing this, An Xiaoyun sat back obediently in her seat.
The three of them finished their breakfast quickly, and then Lone Wolf took charge of driving and rushed to Dugu's house as quickly as possible.
When they arrived, Dugu Changkong and Dugu Yueying were already waiting outside the gate of the house.
After her eyes fell on Su Chen, Dugu Yueying's eyes brightened obviously, and then she raised her hand and waved to Su Chen with a smile.
"Yueying, why do you only say hello to Su Chen?"
An Xiaoyun jumped in front of Dugu Yueying and frowned unconvinced.
Hearing this, Dugu Yueying smiled shyly with her eyes half lowered, and reached out to hold An Xiaoyun's hand: "I wanted to say hello to you, but you ran over directly."
"It seems to be the same..."
Wrinkling her nose, An Xiaoyun then smiled and said: "Don't worry about Du Wenhao. We have warned him for you. He should not dare to trouble you again in the future!"
Blinking slightly, Dugu Yueying's quiet little face showed an obvious look of surprise.
"real?"
"real."
Su Chen took a step forward, smiled and reached out to pinch Dugu Yueying's soft-looking face.
But the sound of Dugu Changkong's coughing could be heard from the side.
"Ahem! Yueying, go make tea for Miss Gu and the others!"
"knew!"
Dugu Yueying nodded obediently, then smiled sweetly at Su Chen and An Xiaoyun, turned around and walked towards the house.
Su Chen retracted his hand regretfully, and as soon as he turned his head, he noticed An Xiaoyun's thoughtful eyes.
"Su Chen, you...are not interested in Yue Ying?"
"Huh?" Su Chen was startled and decided to play dumb: "What are you talking about?"
"Hmph, what a philandering man!"
After scolding him angrily, An Xiaoyun quickly returned to Lu Qingshi and followed him into the house.
Looking at their backs, Su Chen couldn't help but follow them slowly.
After a while, several of them were sitting around a low table.
In fact, Su Chen and the others came today just to confirm with Dugu Changkong the time to enter the mountain.
Because according to Dugu Changkong himself, he hid the Bailing Blood Ginseng in a relatively clever location. The location was shrouded in fog all year round. It was easy to get lost when entering, and the locals were unwilling to enter.
Even if someone knew where the Bai Ling Blood Ginseng was, it would be extremely difficult to find a palm-sized Bai Ling Blood Ginseng in such an environment.
Not to mention that only people from the Dugu family know about this.
"When will the next fog lift?"
Gu Qingshi frowned slightly, her expression a little embarrassed.
She thought that as long as Dugu Changkong led her, she could quickly enter the mountain and find Bai Ling Blood Ginseng, but she didn't expect that such a thing would happen.
But if you think about it carefully, what Dugu Changkong did is fine.
If he hadn't been so cautious, this other Bai Ling Blood Ginseng might have been gone long ago.
Knowing that Gu Qingshi was anxious, Dugu Changkong hurriedly said: "I think the fog is tending to clear in the past few days. We have been in constant contact over the past few days. Once the fog clears, we will go into the mountain immediately!"
"It can only be the……"
Gu Qingshi sighed helplessly after hearing this.
Now that the clues about Bai Ling Blood Ginseng have been confirmed, there is no rush for a day or two.
Anyway, my father's situation has stabilized a lot after Su Chen's previous treatment. I can definitely wait until they go back with Bai Ling Blood Ginseng!
Just when Gu Qingshi was thinking this, her cell phone suddenly rang.
What was displayed on the phone was a series of unfamiliar numbers, but the address was in Beijing.
If it were any other call, Lu Qingshi would only treat it as a harassing call, but when she received this call, she felt an inexplicable twitching in her heart.
After staring at the phone with a slight frown for a few seconds, she answered the call and put the phone to her ear.
