Chapter 787: Chapter 787: The Wu Family’s Semi-God Medicine

"Xiaoli, how about you come work with me in the future? I’ll make you the vice president of our company," Li Qingcheng said, holding her hand.

Chen Xiaoli gave an embarrassed smile.

Li Qingcheng had transferred schools when she was in junior high, and Chen Xiaoli didn’t know much about her family.

She knew even less about Li Qingcheng’s future endeavors.

She had thought Li Qingcheng was merely running a small cosmetics company in Jianghai, like a studio of some sort.

Compared with being a so-called vice president with no real prospects in a small city, she preferred to stay in a place like the Magic Capital and work as a bank employee.

At least that job was secure, even though the steady salary made it hard to afford a house in the Magic Capital.

But it still seemed better than taking the risk of starting a business in a small city.

With these thoughts, she tactfully declined.

"Qingcheng, I think I’ll continue with my current job. Jobs aren’t easy to come by these days, and if I quit now, it will be even harder to come back," she replied.

Li Qingcheng originally intended to tell Chen Xiaoli that she was the CEO of Qingcheng International, but after thinking it through, she decided not to mention it for now.

"I’ll talk to Xiaoli about it after resolving the issues here in the Magic Capital. My future is still uncertain," she secretly said to herself.

Having made this decision, she didn’t try to persuade Chen Xiaoli any further.

The group continued to have their meal.

Later on, Chen Xiaoli asked about Lin Dong.

"Qingcheng, what does your boyfriend do?"

"He... he’s a Doctor."

"Oh? A Doctor? But he seems quite violent."

"Haha, he also practices martial arts part-time, learned a bit of Martial Arts at Wu Xing," Li Qingcheng covered up, believing it wasn’t necessary to tell Chen Xiaoli, an ordinary person, about martial artists.

For ordinary people, knowing about the existence of martial artists, which is beyond their understanding, isn’t a good thing. It would only cause them more trouble.

Chen Xiaoli also expressed her gratitude toward Lin Dong.

"Your name is Lin Dong, right? Thanks for stepping in to save me just now; let me toast to you," said Chen Xiaoli, raising her cup to Lin Dong.

But even before the drink reached her mouth, she let out a sigh.

"Just, sigh, even though that General Lü let us off this time, I’m afraid it won’t be that easy in the future."

Hearing her worries, Lin Dong softly said, "Sister Xiaoli, don’t worry. You are Qingcheng’s only friend. I won’t let anything happen to you."

"If that General Lü dares to seek revenge, I will make him regret it."

"Eh..." Chen Xiaoli’s good feeling toward Lin Dong suddenly plummeted, thinking her dear sister’s boyfriend was just another big talker.

She’d seen too many of this type at work.

Most of them came from outside the Magic Capital and when they first arrived, they acted as if they didn’t take anyone seriously, boasting endlessly to beauties at the dining table.

But what was the end result? After staying in the Magic Capital for a while, they either became those who flattered nobles or those who were crushed by them. In the end, they all succumbed to reality.

"Qingcheng, I’m full," said Chen Xiaoli.

Li Qingcheng quickly suggested, "How about we go shopping? I’ll buy you some things."

"This... this isn’t really appropriate," Chen Xiaoli hesitated.

"It’s okay, let’s go," Li Qingcheng said, half-pulling Chen Xiaoli with her.

Unable to refuse such generosity, Chen Xiaoli went shopping with Li Qingcheng.

At the mall, Li Qingcheng bought her quite a few gifts.

And they were all of considerable value.

"Qingcheng, this... this is too extravagant," Chen Xiaoli said, feeling awkward as she held the designer bags and clothes.

"It’s fine, I’ve made a little fortune recently, money is not a problem," replied Li Qingcheng.

"All these things together, they’re almost worth two hundred thousand. That’s about what I make in a whole year, including bonuses." Chen Xiaoli still felt uneasy accepting.

"Keep them, Xiaoli. What’s this amount of money compared to our sisterhood? Do you think our friendship can’t even match these two hundred thousand?" Li Qingcheng argued.

Hearing this, Chen Xiaoli finally accepted the gifts.

It must be said, women have a natural talent when it comes to shopping.

Li Qingcheng and Chen Xiaoli shopped for a full three hours, still full of energy. If Lin Dong hadn’t been a martial artist, he might have been unable to move his feet.

He now felt a sudden sympathy for those ordinary men who shopped with women for hours; even iron feet couldn’t stand it.

It wasn’t until nine o’clock at night that Chen Xiaoli said goodbye and left.

...

That night.

At the Wu Family residence.

Wu Hao’s father, Wu Yong, returned to the Magic Capital from the Capital City.

Wu Yong was now a member of the Martial Arbiters and held an important position at the headquarters. Moreover, he was a Half-Step Earth Realm powerhouse.

He was a pillar of strength for the Wu Family.

This time, he had come back from the Capital City at the behest of the Wu Family’s Old Ancestor.

And the purpose of his return concerned his son, Wu Hao.

His son, Wu Hao, was the most favored by the Ancestor of Wu Family among the younger generation. His martial arts talent was also the highest among the Wu Family’s younger generation.

After all, to have reached the peak level of Energy Conversion Master in his twenties was a feat that would rank him among the top of the younger generation in Dragon Country.

The Old Ancestor paid close attention to Wu Hao’s growth and spared no effort in nurturing him.

Not long ago, the Ancestor of Wu Family brought back a quasi-drug king from overseas. He did not consume it himself but left it for Wu Hao!

It was to help him break through to a Half-Step Earth Realm powerhouse!

Now, Wu Yong held in his hand a beautifully crafted sandalwood box that contained that very semi-god medicine.

"Son, this is a Millennium Sea Ginseng, a quasi-god medicine. The Old Ancestor found it in an extremely dangerous offshore area abroad. He risked his life to obtain it. He didn’t consume it himself but left it for you," said Wu Yong.

"You must not let down the high hopes the Old Ancestor has for you," he added as he opened the sandalwood box, revealing a black Sea Ginseng inside.

The Spiritual Energy emanating from it was so rich that it oozed out, instantly filling the entire room with the fragrance of medicine.

"The Old Ancestor is so good to me. I will definitely not fail his expectations and will breakthrough to a Half-Step Earth Realm powerhouse!" vowed Wu Hao.
