You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?
Chapter 1500 Did you know that Master Qin also went?
Lin Jingmo subconsciously looked at Lin Jingyu.
What kind of people have the time and energy to go bungee jumping these days?
He's either from a wealthy family or a powerful second son.
He knew very well that Cai Guobang was indirectly trying to get him into that circle in Shanghai.
"Why are you looking at me? You decide."
"Don't rush, Jingmo. It's just an idea right now. Once we've confirmed it, we can go check out the project together and take a trip abroad while we're at it."
Cai Guobang chuckled: "Grandma, you're coming too? You've never been abroad before? We'll..."
"Who said I've never been abroad?" Xi Meng raised an eyebrow. "It's not far. How long did it take to get here?"
"Yes, yes, you're the best, Grandma. Here, have a bite of mung bean cake."
Xi Meng snorted softly, glanced at Su Chen who was calculating, and only asked after swallowing all the pastries in her mouth: "Are they admitting their mistake to you? Has the exorcism team done something big these past two days?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xi Meng frowned subconsciously and looked towards the main entrance.
Following her gaze, Cai Guobang saw Tan Zhiyuan enter, surrounded by a group of bosses.
He even raised his hand to greet them when he saw them from afar.
Lin Jingyu and Lin Jingmo also turned around to look and nodded slightly.
"Jiang Li is here today too."
Lin Jingyu only gave a brief reminder before continuing to drink tea and read documents, occasionally exchanging a few words with Lin Jingmo and Cai Guobang.
As for Xi Meng, she observed Tan Zhiyuan and his group for a few moments, then raised an eyebrow and looked at Su Chen again.
Su Chen continued her calculations with unwavering composure, seemingly unaffected. She lay down again, her interest waning.
Lin Jingyu ordered someone to call Ge Jinghao and the others back.
"Uncle, we haven't finished choosing yet."
Ge Jinghao held two rough stones in his hands, complaining.
Xiang Qingfeng, who was standing next to him, was holding a bunch of things in his arms.
Lin Jingyu glanced at him: "If you want your wealth to be drained away, you can stay here."
Ge Jinghao shrank back: "Am I stupid?"
The group selected a few pieces and went to a distance to pay the bill with Jiang Ni's assistant and the others.
Half an hour later, Su Chen picked up a pen and made annotations on the document.
Jiang Ni and the others also returned, saying that they had arranged for someone to transport the raw stones back.
"Go back?" Lin Jingyu asked after checking the documents Su Chen handed him.
Su Chen shook his head: "No rush."
Upon hearing this, Xi Meng immediately sat up.
"Finally deciding to make a move?"
Su Chen glanced at her but didn't get up. Seeing that he didn't move, Xi Meng didn't sit down either. She gestured for Lin Jingmo to pour her some tea and drank it with great interest.
Tan Zhiyuan led a group of bosses to tour several factories one after another. Each time they came out of a factory, there were more people around them. By the time they came out last, there were already more than a hundred people surrounding them.
They all headed towards the stone-cutting area.
Xi Meng complained, "It's the same old routine. They've been doing it for so many days. Aren't they tired of it? I'm sick of it."
Zhang Yugui and his group were quite sensible, avoiding Tan Zhiyuan and his group the whole time. Now that they've returned, seeing such a large entourage, they asked Su Chen curiously, "Master Su, are they planning to swindle all the money from everyone?"
"Illusions always come to an end, right? What if they wake up from their dream...?"
"Suicide?" Ge Jinghao became interested. "Then is it..."
After being glanced at by Lin Jingyu, he immediately became obedient.
"Uncle, I'm not gloating, really, I just... feel a little sorry for him."
"The money I worked so hard to earn just disappeared inexplicably. If it were me, I would definitely go crazy," Cai Guobang sighed.
He glanced at Su Chen again as he spoke.
Some are looking forward to seeing how Master Su will punish these people.
Unfortunately, half an hour has passed.
Exclamations of surprise occasionally erupted from the stone-cutting area, but Su Chen calmly sipped his tea, chatting idly with Lin Jingyu, who was handling documents.
Seeing this, Ge Jinghao and his group looked at the factory buildings and were eager to try again.
Lin Jingyu caught a glimpse of it and waved.
A group of young people cheered and went back into the factory.
An hour passed.
Lin Jingyu glanced at his watch and asked Su Chen, "Should we still have lunch delivered?"
Su Chen calculated and shook his head.
"Need not."
Xi Meng raised an eyebrow and looked at him, her brows furrowing slightly: "The exorcism team has made a move?"
Su Chen took a sip of tea: "To cut the weeds, you must pull them out by the roots."
Lin Jingyu was not surprised. He tidied up the documents, capped the pen he used for signing, and handed them to his assistant. Then he stretched his neck and rubbed his wrists.
"Did they just pull the plug on the casino?"
Su Chen nodded: "It's that Master Zhou, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult."
"Indeed, that person has always been elusive..."
As they were talking, a person hurriedly entered through the gate, glanced around, and then his gaze fell on the tent before he walked over quickly.
Upon seeing Zheng Heng enter, Su Chen flipped his hand and took out a folding chair.
"Tea?"
Su Chen raised his hand, and the new cup and teapot floated up. The cup was quickly filled with tea and floated to Zheng Heng's side.
"Phew, I'm thirsty, let's have a few more cups."
Zheng Heng gulped down the cup of tea in one go, exhaled, and then the cup was snatched from his hand.
After drinking five cups in a row, he looked at Su Chen and asked, "You know the exorcism team started its operation at dawn, right?"
Su Chen nodded.
"Did you know that Master Qin also went?"
Seeing that Su Chen remained unfazed, Zheng Heng gave him a thumbs up in admiration.
"I thought Master Qin would go back after finishing his lectures here. I never expected that he would still be here..."
Su Chen asked, "Master Zhou and Master Qin have some connection, right?"
"I don't know, I just happened to run into someone while I was chasing after them."
"So Master Qin is pursuing Master Zhou? Which Master Zhou?"
Su Chen shook his head: "I don't know."
"...Huh?" Zheng Heng asked, puzzled. "How do you know Master Zhou if you don't know him?"
Su Chen did not answer, his gaze turning toward the stone-cutting area.
Jiang Li, who had been quietly staying beside Tan Zhiyuan, glanced at Su Chen with a slight movement in her eyes.
They made eye contact for less than two seconds before she lowered her gaze and put her mobile phone to her ear.
Her body trembled slightly.
Su Chen clearly heard her voice: "I'm sorry, I can't do it."
The other end seemed to have said something offensive. Jiang Li frowned as she listened, then coldly replied, "Then let's call me ungrateful, but I have a clear conscience."
After hanging up the phone, she took a step back.
The look in her eyes as she gazed at Tan Zhiyuan's retreating figure was tinged with pity.
Then, without looking back, he turned and left.
Tan Zhiyuan hadn't noticed yet, but one of the small business owners next to him saw it and nudged his arm.
"Why did Master Zhou's youngest apprentice leave?"
"what?!"
"She just took a phone call and went out. Could it be that Master Zhou is coming?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately became excited.
"Is Master Zhou coming?!"
"What? Master Zhou is coming? That's wonderful! If I could get to know Master Zhou and ask him to do my fortune telling, it would definitely be..."
Tan Zhiyuan was momentarily bewildered, then chuckled awkwardly as he looked around. When he saw Jiang Li already at the gate, he suddenly had a bad feeling and felt a vague unease in his heart.
He instinctively reached for the mobile phone, but quickly stopped himself.
No, we can't fight now.
Asking in front of everyone? Wouldn't that be self-inflicted?
The stone-cutting machine kept buzzing.
That small piece of raw stone has already been cut in half.
Tan Zhiyuan's eyes flickered, and he suddenly clutched his stomach: "Ouch!"
"Mr. Tan, what's wrong? Are you alright?"
Someone asked a question out of concern.
Tan Zhiyuan frowned: "I, I think I ate something bad this morning, my stomach hurts a bit. Um, you guys wait here for a bit, I'm going to the restroom, I'll be right back!"
