Chapter 2674: negotiate a deal
She looked at Chu Xi apologetically: "Xi\'er, try it. If you don\'t like it, don\'t eat it. I\'ll order food for you. I\'ll cook it for you after I practice cooking more."
There are eight dishes on the table, half of them are mushy, half of them look undercooked, and only the steamed lobster looks edible.
Chu Xi picked up a piece of mushy tomato scrambled egg with her chopsticks, took a bite of it calmly, and said, "Except for being a bit mushy, the taste is okay."
"Huh?" Shen Ruyu was ecstatic: "Really?" She immediately took a bite with chopsticks, it was salty and bitter.
"Xi\'er, I\'m sorry, don\'t eat it." Shen Ruyu picked up the dish and dumped it into the trash can, then said: This lobster is steamed, so it should be fine, you eat this, right? "
"Yeah." Chu Xi looked at the peeled lobster, picked up a piece of lobster meat, dipped it in sauce, and put it in her mouth.
Actually, her mind was not on food. At this moment, her mind and heart were in a mess, and she couldn\'t taste anything at all.
Seeing that she seemed to have something on her mind, Shen Ruyu asked softly: "Xi\'er, do you have something on your mind? Can you tell me?"
Chu Xi said lightly: "No."
"But I see that you look very preoccupied."
"If I die, will you be sad?" Chu Xi looked back at her and asked.
Shen Ruyu\'s expression changed slightly: "Xi\'er, did something happen to you? Tell me, and I will find a solution."
Chu Xi smiled suddenly: "No, I just said it casually, I\'m fine."
At this time, Ling Ke suddenly called, and Chu Xi answered immediately: "Hello, Ling Ke."
"Xiao Xi, there is news from the spirit grass."
"There is news, where is it?"
"It\'s in country A, the Gu family in Yuncheng. Last year, their family bought a few spiritual grasses at an auction. I remember that you seem to know someone from the Gu family in Yuncheng, right?"
"Yuncheng Gu family!" Chu Xi\'s eyes lit up immediately, Gu Ziluo, Gu Ziluo is not a member of the Gu family: "I see, Ling Ke, thank you."
Hung up the phone, Chu Xi immediately called Gu Ziluo: "Gu Ziluo, where are you now?"
"I\'m at home, Yuncheng." Gu Ziluo said in a cynical tone, "Xi\'er, why did you suddenly call me and miss me?"
"Gu Ziluo, did your family buy a few spiritual grasses at the auction last year?"
"Yeah, how do you know?"
Chu Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and after thinking for a while, said: "Gu Ziluo, can you transfer the spirit grass to me, it doesn\'t matter how much it is, I need it very much."
"This..." Gu Ziluo seemed a little embarrassed: "Xi\'er, this may be a little difficult. You know my position in the Gu family, and I didn\'t take pictures of the spirit grass, so I can\'t make the decision. What do you want? Why?"
"I\'m useful and important to me."
After thinking for a while, Gu Ziluo said, "Then I\'ll try it, I\'ll go tell my brother."
"Okay, thank you. By the way, do you know how much the spirit grass was bought for?"
"I really don\'t know, it must be hundreds of millions."
"So many!" Chu Xi frowned suddenly, after thinking about it, it was normal, after all, spirit grass was extremely rare.
"Since you need to know its value for sure, but why are you using it?" As soon as the words fell, Gu Ziluo\'s shocked voice suddenly sounded on the phone: "Well, why are you here?"
"Do you have any guests?" Chu Xi asked.
"Uh yes, that Xi\'er, just wait for my news, I will contact you as soon as possible."
"Okay. Then I won\'t bother you."
Finally found the spirit grass, Chu Xi closed her eyes and let out a long breath.
"Xi\'er, what are you looking for for spiritual grass? Spiritual grass is used to detoxify poisons or extend life. What\'s wrong with you?" Shen Ruyu asked.
"I\'m fine, I\'m just looking for someone else."
Thinking for a moment, Chu Xi suddenly stood up: "Thank you for the dinner, I will leave first if I have something to do."
"Are you going to Yuncheng? Shall I go with you?"
"No, I\'m going to find my friend, it\'s inconvenient for you to go."
"Then wait a moment." Shen Ruyu ran back to the room, and after a while, she came out with a bank card and handed it to Chu Xi: "There is no limit, you can use it as you like."
Chu Xi looked at the card in her hand and put it on the dining table: "No need." After speaking, she turned and left.
"Xi\'er! Can you really forgive me?" Shen Ruyu\'s voice trembled slightly.
Chu Xi stopped suddenly but didn\'t turn her head. After a moment\'s pause, she said slowly, "Maybe."
Looking at the back of her leaving, a tear slid down Shen Ruyu\'s cheek, she closed her eyes gently, and finally waited for this moment.
Chu Xi got into the car and planned to go straight to Yuncheng. She couldn\'t wait any longer. She wanted to get back the spirit grass as soon as possible and recover as soon as possible.
It was past eleven o\'clock in the evening when we arrived in Yuncheng. Seeing that it was already so late, Chu Xi didn\'t call Gu Ziluo, but found a hotel to stay first, and planned to contact Gu Ziluo tomorrow morning.
Chu Xi was lying on the bed but couldn\'t sleep. In fact, she was not as relaxed as she looked these past few days. She was very scared, afraid that she would not find the spiritual herb, afraid that there would be no way to relieve the poison, afraid of leaving this world, afraid of seeing her again Less than Blue Peak.
Fortunately, God treats her kindly, and fortunately, she has so many friends around her.
She clutched her mobile phone and suddenly wanted to call Lan Feng, but she was worried that if he saw that she was awake and wanted to play the video, he would find her in the hotel.
After much deliberation, she finally only sent a message.
【Good night. 】
Immediately afterwards, Lan Feng also sent 【Good Night】.
Chu Xi smiled sweetly, put down her phone, and closed her eyes to sleep.
The next day, early morning.
Chu Xi woke up early and called Gu Ziluo, but no one answered.
Chu Xi frowned slightly: "Are you still awake?"
She checked the time. It was past eight o\'clock, which was indeed a bit early for someone like Gu Ziluo who likes nightlife.
So she simply went to the restaurant to have breakfast. Anyway, she had already arrived in Yuncheng, and the spirit grass would not be able to escape for a while.
Arriving at the restaurant, Chu Xi suddenly saw a familiar figure.
Blue Peak! !
Lan Feng also noticed her, and the two looked at each other in surprise. After a while, Lan Feng spoke first: "When did you come here?"
"Last night, how about you?" Chu Xi asked.
"In the evening. Why didn\'t you tell me when you came to Yuncheng suddenly? You also said that you were at Ms. Shen\'s place. It seems that you are also lying to me."
"No! I was originally at her place, and I came here on a temporary basis."
The two sat down at a random place with breakfast, and Chu Xi asked puzzledly, "Lan Feng, why did you come to Yuncheng all of a sudden?"
Lan Feng said: "Negotiate a deal with Gu Ziluo\'s elder brother."
