253: Revised: Chapter 553 What Medicine is Sold in the Gourd 253: Revised: Chapter 553 What Medicine is Sold in the Gourd The Mediterranean’s heart was filled with both fear and anger.

What had he done today?

First, he was deceived by a woman, then he got beaten up by the people he himself had summoned.

Why was he so unlucky!

Seeing his face full of regret, Wu Xiaoyu didn’t want to make things difficult for him any longer and reprimanded, “If you’re brainless, don’t try to keep a mistress like others do.

Be careful, you might get sold off and even end up counting money for others!”

Upon hearing this, the Mediterranean repeatedly agreed, curling up in a corner and not daring to make any movement.

Seeing that he was truly scared, Wu Xiaoyu turned back again and said to Qin Can, “Considering we are classmates, I’ll let you off this time.”

“If you continue to be so arrogant without knowing your limits, you’ll stir up big trouble one day, and by then, being beaten will be the least of your worries!”

Qin Can, now filled with fear, didn’t dare show any displeasure and just nodded blankly.

Zhang Dadan stood up and said to the hooligans standing by, “Since you helped me vent my anger, I won’t punish you.

Now get lost!”

Huang Mao and the others were relieved and ran off, leaving the Mediterranean and Qin Can lying on the ground, covering their wounds, and wallowing in self-pity.

Wu Xiaoyu shook his head and sighed, then left without saying anything more.

After exiting that alley, Wu Xiaoyu got in a car and headed straight to Bai Yun’s house.

The fact that he could quickly establish a partnership with Huarong Supermarket was partly due to Bai Yun’s help, so he should go and thank her in person.

Arriving at the villa district where Bai Yun lived, he called her, confirmed his identity, and the security guard let him in.

Before he could reach her door, the butler came out to greet him, smiled politely, and led him into the villa.

Upon entering the living room, he saw Bai Yun and her grandfather sitting solemnly on the sofa, as if waiting for an important guest.

“Am I coming at a bad time?” Wu Xiaoyu asked hesitantly.

Bai Kainan waved at him to come over, and after he sat down, Bai Kainan smiled and said, “You’re here just in time, otherwise I would have had to go find you.”

Find me specifically?

Wu Xiaoyu examined Bai Kainan’s complexion, seeing that he didn’t appear to be sick.

Since it wasn’t for a medical consultation, could it be about buying chicken?

Such a small matter wouldn’t require Bai Kainan’s personal involvement, right?

What on earth could he want from me?

Wu Xiaoyu had come to express his gratitude but found the two Bai family members staring at him mysteriously, making him curious.

Reflecting on recent events, he didn’t recall doing anything extraordinary and thus asked, “What’s going on?

Did I do something wrong?”

Bai Yun giggled and said, “Even if you did something seriously wrong, you don’t need to worry.

Someone’s here to back you up!”

Her words made Wu Xiaoyu even more confused.

Although he had treated some big shots recently, they all lived far away and had nothing to do with him, right?

Seeing Wu Xiaoyu’s puzzled expression, Bai Kainan didn’t explain further but personally poured him a cup of tea, smiling and saying, “Drink tea…

drink tea…”

The more mysterious they acted, the more uneasy Wu Xiaoyu felt.

He had always disliked sudden surprises and preferred straightforward communication.

“Grandpa Bai, do you have an old friend or a leader who needs me to treat their illness?” Wu Xiaoyu couldn’t help asking.

Bai Kainan smiled slightly and said, “You’ve met all the old guys I know, and those you haven’t met are already dead, so you needn’t treat them!”

Seeing him unwilling to speak, Wu Xiaoyu could only take a sip of tea and remain silent.

Bai Yun noticed the silent atmosphere, found it a bit awkward, and asked, “Wu Xiaoyu, I heard you signed a contract with Mr.

Huang?”

“Yes, we signed it.

The products started selling at Huarong Supermarket today,” Wu Xiaoyu replied.

Bai Kainan, hearing this, couldn’t help but join the conversation, “I tasted the mushroom sauce you brought last time.

It’s delicious, very fragrant and flavorful!”

“You’re too kind.

It’s just average,” Wu Xiaoyu modestly replied.

Bai Yun found his modesty somewhat irritating.

Considering his young age, the fact that he built his business from scratch was already a great achievement.

Yet, instead of being proud, he was even more humble now, which made Bai Yun admire and somewhat envy him.

“The taste is good, but how’s the business?” Bai Yun asked challengingly.

Unaware of her dissatisfaction, Wu Xiaoyu smiled and said, “Based on today’s sales, it was very successful.

We sold over ten boxes just this afternoon!”

“But I owe much of this to you for speaking to Mr.

Huang on my behalf.

I came today specifically to thank you!”

On hearing this, Bai Yun gave him a proud glance and smiled smugly, appreciating his recognition of her contribution.

Witnessing their interaction, Bai Kainan became more convinced that there was something between the two youngsters.

As they chatted and laughed, the butler suddenly came to Bai Kainan’s side and whispered something.

Upon hearing this, Bai Kainan quickly stood up, tidied his clothes, and led Bai Yun and Wu Xiaoyu outside.

The three of them waited outside for a few minutes until a jeep parked, and a man in his forties stepped out of the car.

This was the military-clad man Wu Xiaoyu had seen at Elder Mu’s birthday banquet.

Seeing him get out, Mu Zhuangfei hurriedly walked over and introduced with a smile, “Zhuangfei, this is my granddaughter Bai Yun, and this is Wu Xiaoyu, whom you wanted to meet!”

He wanted to see me?

Wu Xiaoyu was even more puzzled.

He had already given Elder Mu the prescription; could there have been a problem?

As Wu Xiaoyu was pondering, Mu Zhuangfei suddenly walked over, extended his hand, and Wu Xiaoyu hastily shook it.

However, as soon as their hands clasped, he felt Mu Zhuangfei applying force, seemingly wanting to test his strength.

Though baffled, Wu Xiaoyu slightly increased his grip.

As soon as he applied a little force, he noticed Mu Zhuangfei struggling and quickly eased off.

Mu Zhuangfei, having witnessed Wu Xiaoyu’s prowess before, was now even more convinced that he was a practitioner of some Ancient Martial Sect.

“Impressive!

Kid, you’ve got some strength!” Mu Zhuangfei released his hand and smiled at Wu Xiaoyu.

Unaware of his intentions, Wu Xiaoyu could only smile sheepishly in return.

Seeing Wu Xiaoyu being overly cautious, Bai Kainan explained, “Xiaoyu, you don’t need to worry, Zhuangfei isn’t here to cause trouble!”

Hearing this, Wu Xiaoyu finally felt relieved and smiled at Mu Zhuangfei, saying, “You’re not bad yourself!”

Surprised by Wu Xiaoyu’s comment, Mu Zhuangfei laughed and, led by Bai Kainan, entered the villa.

As they entered the house, Bai Kainan immediately said to Mu Zhuangfei, “I’ve arranged for food to be prepared.

Let’s talk while we eat.”

Mu Zhuangfei nodded and followed Bai Kainan to the kitchen.

Wu Xiaoyu, entering the Bai family kitchen for the first time, found its luxurious and ornate design somewhat overwhelming.

As the four of them sat down, the butler signaled for the staff to start serving drinks and food.

Once the glasses were filled, Bai Kainan raised his glass and said, “Welcome to Jiacheng County, Zhuangfei.

I wish you all the best!”
