Chapter 372: Chapter 0372: Brother is Also Helpless

An Xiaoke didn’t go with Long Fei to the Stone Workshop last time. She only knew that Long Fei understood these matters, and the gambling stones he picked out were all of high quality.

This time, however, she was a witness to his actions at the gambling stone field. He was not at all as serious as An Xiaoke had imagined.

When selecting gambling stones, it was purely like a cursory glance at flowers.

Yet the gambling stones he chose were all high quality, not a single one was a miss.

An Xiaoke watched the man with an almost infatuated gaze, thinking to herself just how many hidden secrets he possessed.

Being able to fight was one thing, and then he could also heal.

Being skilled at healing was another, and he could also practice cultivation.

As if cultivation wasn’t enough, he even knew how to handle stones?

This was simply, comparable to a jack-of-all-trades.

In her heart, she became even more determined to learn medical skills from Long Fei.

No matter how many grievances she had to endure, she would persist.

Long Fei didn’t return home for the whole night, staying directly at Liu Jinsuo’s shop instead.

Aside from carving the Jade Arhat, he also asked Liu Jinsuo to find a carpenter to make an Array Plate out of sandalwood overnight.

It was a bit of a hassle, but he paid twice the usual price.

Now he wasn’t short on money, just on time.

This Array Plate was called the "Hou Tu Mountain-Defending Great Formation."

Of course, it was just a simplified version of the simplified version.

It may not defend a mountain, but it was more than enough to protect a villa.

This Array Plate didn’t need to be carried around, so it was twice as large as the easy-use Mist Formation Plate used by Lin Yingying.

Long Fei planned to place it in the newly purchased villa, to serve as a protective charm.

All it needed was for the Jade Arhat to be placed into the niche, and then the Array Plate could draw Earth Elemental Force from the surroundings.

Within two meters of distance, a semi-circular Earth Elemental Barrier would be formed.

Heavenly Empress Hou Tu, Hou Tu is indeed the mother of earth.

The Earth Elemental Force serves as a wall, which is very suitable for protecting family homes and sect entrances, favored by successive cultivation sects.

Once the formation is activated, even bullets would find it hard to penetrate inside.

In one night’s work, Liu Jinsuo and his craftsmen rushed to finish making sixty-four Jade Arhats.

Long Fei had no high demands for the shape of the Jade Arhats, but Liu Jinsuo couldn’t let down the reputation of his establishment.

Each Jade Arhat was lifelike, with brows and eyes, each sitting in meditation with hands folded, extremely exquisite.

After having a look, Long Fei thought that he should never sell these items if he was short on money in the future.

With a Bodhi Bead in his possession, he was considering how to properly nurture these items to allow them to develop some spiritual wisdom.

It would be like having robots that could absorb and replenish the nature’s spiritual energy on their own, saving him the effort.

Of the dozen or so glass-type gambling stones he brought back, after making these Jade Arhats, there was still a large amount of scrap material left.

Though called scraps, in reality, each could be made into small pendants and ornaments, each one of considerable value.

Long Fei gave all the leftovers to Liu Jinsuo, after all, he was his Registered Disciple.

He couldn’t pass on his x-ray vision to Liu Jinsuo, but giving him extra benefits was doable.

As soon as dawn broke, An Xiaoke arrived early from the pharmacy.

Goodness, she even brought her luggage.

Long Fei frowned upon seeing this, thinking to himself that the girl was truly serious.

After securing the Array Plate and the Jade Arhats, he greeted Liu Jinsuo and the others, then left with An Xiaoke in a taxi.

In the car, he sent a message to Wang Xiaoya, saying he wanted to give her a surprise and to wait for him to return before going to work.

Wang Xiaoya was baffled. She thought to herself that there wasn’t a holiday, nothing special was happening, so what gift could he possibly be talking about?

At home, she had even prepared breakfast and, as soon as the doorbell rang, she immediately ran to open the door.

But not only did she see Long Fei return, she also saw An Xiaoke following behind him, dragging a suitcase, which really took her aback.

Before Long Fei could speak, An Xiaoke bowed deeply, politely greeting Wang Xiaoya with, "Madam, hello!"

Startled, Wang Xiaoya quickly extended her hand to help her up and asked, "What are you doing?"

An Xiaoke’s actions left her completely bewildered.

Long Fei greeted awkwardly, "Let’s go in and talk!"

After helping An Xiaoke with her suitcase, he led the two women to sit down on the sofa in the living room.

Wang Xiaoya glared at him, her heart questioning if this was the surprise he had mentioned.

Long Fei chuckled nervously, attempting to ease the atmosphere, "Little Ya, here’s the thing. Little Ke wants to study medicine with me, so from now on she’ll be living with us. It’s perfect, she can keep you company. What do you think about this situation?"

An Xiaoke corrected him, "It’s not about keeping company, from now on Sister Little Ya is the madam, and I’m the servant. Sister Little Ya, you can rest assured. From now on, laundry, cooking, and cleaning the house, I’ll take care of it all. You can command me however you wish, and I won’t say a thing."

Wang Xiaoya felt like pulling her hair out, wondering if this girl had gone mad.

She had heard Long Fei talk about An Xiaoke before, and it seemed that she came from a Traditional Chinese Medicine Family.

A lady like her actually wanted to become a servant?

Long Fei explained, "It’s like this. There’s this unwritten bad practice in both the cultivation and medical communities. When a master teaches an apprentice, the apprentice has to serve at the master’s side for a few years, doing menial tasks. Only after the master gets to know their character, will they teach them their true skills. I’m very opposed to this practice, but Little Ke insisted on coming over. Little Ya, it’s up to you to decide! Stay if you say stay, leave if you say leave."

An Xiaoke clasped her hands pleadingly at her.

Wang Xiaoya was amused by both of them and, somewhat speechlessly, said, "Alright, I really can’t with you guys. I don’t understand your set of rules, just do whatever you want!"

"Thank you, madam!"

An Xiaoke immediately stood up and respectfully bowed to Wang Xiaoya.

Long Fei wiped his sweat, wondering if this girl was serious or just playing a role.

From a young lady to the exquisite appearance of a maid, she was adapting way too quickly.

Wang Xiaoya found a room for An Xiaoke and, since she was there, decided to move up to live with Long Fei on the second floor.

The first floor could be used for entertaining guests.

Even though An Xiaoke kept calling her madam, she didn’t see herself as one, nor did she really treat An Xiaoke as a servant.

It was boring staying there anyway, so having someone to chat with was nice.

But An Xiaoke didn’t see things the same way; her idea of following Long Fei as a maid was serious.

As long as she could learn skills by following him, she didn’t mind what her status was.

After the three of them finished breakfast, she really went to the kitchen like a maid, insisting on washing the dishes.

Wang Xiaoya watched her blankly, then turned back to look at Long Fei with confusion, unable to figure out what exactly he was up to.

It sounded like hiding a mistress in a golden house, bringing home a potential other woman.

Seeing An Xiaoke’s innocent look, Wang Xiaoya was sure she couldn’t be that kind of person.

If she wanted to learn medicine, wouldn’t it be better to formally become an apprentice under Long Fei?

Why on earth did she have to be a maid?

In the medical profession, was there really a rule that stipulated one had to be a maid before becoming an apprentice?

Long Fei avoided eye contact with Wang Xiaoya because he felt guilty, and he himself was quite helpless.

What was initially a joke had been taken seriously by An Xiaoke.

If Lin Yingying found out that he was hiding two beauties here, she would surely flay him alive.
