Chapter 507 Windsor Mansion
"Thank you, thank you!"
Seeing that I had agreed, tears welled up in Liu Lingling's eyes.
Her behavior has left me completely baffled. Are their feelings really that deep?
After agreeing on the treatment for Zhou Jiumei, we chatted for a while longer before the banquet ended and we said goodbye and left.
Guo Meiqi drove us back. After we got in the car, Fatty Lin casually asked, "Sister Meiqi, are Sister Ling and Sister Mei really that close?"
"Sister Ling and we have a very good relationship. If I were in trouble, Sister Ling would ask you for help for me today!" Guo Meiqi said earnestly.
Seeing that she said that, we didn't say anything more, but instead asked about Zhou Jiumei's situation.
Guo Meiqi said that Zhou Jiumei now lives in Beijing and comes back once or twice a year.
"Fatty, let me tell you, Sister Mei settled in Beijing on Sister Ling's suggestion. Sister Ling said that Hong Kong Island is near the sea and has a lot of dampness, and the old houses are mostly yin places. In addition, the old film sets are full of evil energy, which will aggravate her yin-attracting constitution!"
"The capital is different. Sister Ling said that the capital has a strong imperial aura and the yang energy of heaven and earth is extremely abundant, making it an excellent place to nourish yang. She suggested that Sister Mei settle in the capital and use the positive yang energy of the capital to nourish her body!"
At this point, Guo Meiqi sighed and said, "It seems that even the imperial aura of the capital can't suppress Sister Mei's condition!"
"Sister Meiqi, regarding Sister Mei's situation, we can only say we'll do our best. We'll have to see Sister Mei to discuss the specifics!" I said after thinking for a moment.
"Okay!" Guo Meiqi nodded.
After I got back, Fatty Lin and I discussed it, and then I took out my phone and called Master Liu to tell him what had happened that night.
After listening for a moment, Master Liu said, "I have some connections with Liu Lingling's master, Lin Zhen. You guys are like those who have been bitten by a snake once and are afraid of a rope for ten years. Even if Liu Lingling harbors resentment towards you, she won't do anything to you!"
"Go ahead and do it. As for arrogance, Fatty, you think you're so capable? Go ahead and use it on them!"
Finally, the second master made a joke.
"Second Master, you're old in years but young at heart! I was just saying before that I'd have Madman find some old remedies to give you a second spring!" Fatty Lin retorted without backing down.
"You little brat, how dare you talk back to me?" Old Master Liu cursed.
"Second Master, I was just saying that offhand. If you're not happy about it, come to Hong Kong and beat me up!" Fatty Lin said slyly.
"You little brat, trying to pull this on me? Just wait until you come back next time. Alright, that's all, I'm hanging up!"
Old Master Liu hung up the phone, cursing under his breath.
"Crazy, did you see that? This time, Second Master went to great lengths to find Lin Zhen for us. He probably used a lot of connections. We have to seize this opportunity and strike decisively!"
Fatty Lin clenched his fist, looking determined and hardworking.
"Come on, I know what you're thinking. Tell me, which one have you got your eye on?" I said, glancing at him sideways.
"Is that how you see me?" Fatty Lin looked like he was heartbroken.
"I won't bet anything else with you, just a month's supply of tonics. Do you dare to bet?" I said.
"No gambling, only a grandson gambles. Gambling isn't something good kids do!" Fatty Lin scoffed, turning around and saying, "I'm sleepy, going back to bed!"
"Damn it!" I spat as I watched his retreating figure, mentally reviewing the women I'd met tonight—more than twenty, all kinds of them. I wondered who this guy had his eye on.
It doesn't matter if we don't know; given this guy's temperament, he'll expose himself sooner or later.
The next morning, Liu Lingling sent a letter saying that Zhou Jiumei was filming and would return to Hong Kong Island about a month before wrapping up filming, and would come to our place for treatment.
Liu Lingling made the call in the morning, and Fatty Lin ran away in the afternoon. Although he was evasive and didn't say where he was going, Xiao Ba had sharp ears and heard Fatty Lin call the other party Miss Su.
"Miss Su?" I asked, looking at Xiao Ba.
"Chirp!"
Xiao Ba nodded vigorously, and with his little paw holding the pen, he paused on the crooked "Su" character he had written on the paper, making a big black dot.
"Girl, I told you that bastard had his eye on someone from last night, and look, he's already contacted them today!" I said with a snort.
"Brother, don't worry about who Fatty has his eye on. What about you? Have you got your eye on anyone?" Long Nier leaned closer and asked gently.
"Nier, you know I'm not that kind of person!" I said seriously.
"I know, brother, don't overthink it!" Long Nier said, touching my face.
"I don't want to think about it!" I grabbed Long Nier's hand and kissed it.
If I show even the slightest sign of guilt at this moment, Long Nier will definitely not let me off easily.
"Chirp!"
Seeing the two of us being all lovey-dovey, Xiao Ba let out a dissatisfied cry.
"Okay, I'll take you for a nap!"
Long Nier withdrew her hand and affectionately tapped Xiao Ba's head.
"You guys go ahead, I'm going to read for a while!" I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but didn't show it on my face.
For the next few days, Fatty Lin went out every afternoon, but unlike before, he would come back to sleep at night.
That afternoon, Fatty Lin went out again. Judging from how often he took my tonic, he was probably treating someone else's body.
After he left, I went to the first floor and sat for a while, as usual.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, after there were not many people around, I went back to the third floor. I had just sat down when Fatty Lin called.
"You madman, I've taken on a job that's not easy. Bring your magical artifacts and drive Long Ni'er to the Windsor House Building in Causeway Bay!"
"Royal Castle?"
I muttered it to myself, then it suddenly dawned on me, "Windsor Tower?"
"Yes, Windsor Building!" Fatty Lin gave a positive answer.
Windsor House is very famous on Hong Kong Island. Too many things have happened here, the most famous being the Windsor House Fox Spirit Case.
More than 20 years have passed since the incident involving the fox spirit at Windsor Building, yet people on Hong Kong Island still talk about it with great enthusiasm and eloquence.
To put it simply, anyone who's a bit older can tell you a lot about Windsor House.
"Where did you get the job?" I asked.
"Su Manli is the daughter of the Tao Heung Group. Her friend is the owner of the Royal Restaurant, named Zhou Peiru. She also knows Sister Meiqi. Today, when I was giving the three of them a massage, Zhou Peiru said that her restaurant has been having some trouble lately and asked me to go and take a look!" Fatty Lin said.
"Great, you got a job just by giving massages to three people and having some fun!" I joked.
"Crazy, I've taken a look around, something's not right with this building!" Fatty Lin wasn't joking at all; his tone was urgent.
Hearing him say that, I lost all interest in joking.
