Chapter 853 ·Decoction

Shang Junzhuo said, "No, I've long been used to walking. I don't know how many times I walked when I was a kid. I can find it back with my eyes closed."

Bai Xiuzhi knew he couldn't persuade her, so he could only nodded helplessly.

Shang Junzhuo asked again, "Is there anything else?"

Bai Xiuzhi said, "No more."

Shang Junzhuo turned around and was about to leave when he stopped him again, "Junzhuo..."

Shang Junzhuo smiled helplessly, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Bai Xiuzhi looked at her quietly, "I just suddenly want to call your name."

Shang Junzhuo couldn't help but smile, "You can call me my name, but it's nothing special. If you like it, you can call it me forever."

"Then it's settled." Bai Xiuzhi said with satisfaction, "For the rest of my life..."

A lifetime, that's a long time and years.

Shang Junzhuo pouted at him and said with a smile, "What an idiot, I'm leaving." This time he didn't make any stop and walked out the door quickly.

Many years later, Shang Junzhuo still regretted and felt heartbroken when he recalled the moment when he turned around.

If she knew that this was the last time she would talk to Bai Xiuzhi, she would cherish it even more and ponder every word before speaking... If she knew that from this moment on she would be separated from Bai Xiuzhi forever, what would she do?

I didn’t even do anything to protect him...

It's a pity that she doesn't have the ability to predict the future, so she can turn around and leave without looking back.

In this life, they are also destined to have different fates.

A life that I thought was long is actually as short as fireworks at night. After a moment of brilliance, there is endless darkness.

After Shang Junzhuo left, Meng Fansheng hugged the book and started reading.

Bai Xiuzhi was lying on the bed bored and said to Meng Fansheng, "Bring me a copy and read it."

Meng Fansheng said, "You still have a wound on your head. The doctor said you need to rest for the sake of the Lord. What are you reading? Be careful, you will have a headache soon. Junzhuo comes back to see you, why don't you ask for my sake?"

"How can I be so delicate!" Bai Xiuzhi said, "I lie down and read a few pages of a book, and I don't get out of bed and move around. How can something happen?"

Meng Fansheng thought about it again and again, then took out a book and handed it to him.

Bai Xiuzhi had read them several times, but just to kill time, he didn't have time to pick and choose. After reading a few pages, he read in attentively. For a while, the sound of needle drops could be heard in the room, and only his fingers were turning the pages.

sound.

There was a knock on the door.

Meng Fansheng stood up curiously, "Who will come at this time? Could it be that they are looking for Jun Zhuo?"

"Go out and take a look." Bai Xiuzhi said, "If you are looking for Junzhuo, just say she is not here."

Meng Fansheng said with some embarrassment, "A girl in Junzhuo lives alone, and a man suddenly appears in the house. Will those unknowing villains talk nonsense and ruin her reputation? Anyway, we don't know anyone here, so we just pretend to be at home.

There's no one there. If anything happens, just wait until Jun Zhuo comes back."

Bai Xiuzhi thought what he said made sense, and nodded in agreement, "That's fine."

Unexpectedly, the person outside the door was so patient that he didn't leave. After a while, he knocked on the door. Not only was Bai Xiuzhi and Meng Fansheng so noisy that they couldn't read, but they were also afraid that something important was going on.

Bai Xiuzhi said, "It's better to open the door, don't delay the business."

Meng Fansheng sighed and hurried to open the door.

Unexpectedly, the person standing outside the door was actually Manager Jia.

Meng Fansheng was stunned and asked in confusion, "Why is it you?"

There was a bit of impatience in his tone.

It's no wonder that this is the case, this manager Jia has been too enthusiastic, making people feel a little haunted.

Manager Jia probably guessed that he was not popular, but he still smiled cheekily and said, "I don't know how the young master is recovering from his injuries. I remember that I didn't sleep much all night. Why don't you come over and take a look?"

?”

Don't hit the smiling person with your hand.

Manager Jia's posture was so low that Meng Fansheng couldn't say anything. He responded calmly, "I'm much better now. The headache symptoms last night did not recur. I had a peaceful sleep and I am in good spirits now."

, is lying on the bed reading a book."

"Ouch." Jia Guanshi exclaimed, "How can I read a book at this time? Be careful to leave the hidden danger of headache and confusion."

Meng Fansheng saw that he didn't look like he was ready to leave, so he couldn't stop him, so he could only stop him by the door and invite him in.

Guanshi Jia was quite well-behaved and followed Meng Fansheng all the time. Although he behaved appropriately, he was disliked from the bottom of his heart.

Bai Xiuzhi also heard the sound in the inner room. He put down his book and sat up with his body propped up.

Meng Fansheng led Guanshi Jia in with a look of helplessness.

Manager Jia hurriedly stepped forward to salute Bai Xiuzhi and asked about his situation with concern.

Bai Xiuzhi said expressionlessly, "Manager Jia has finished all the things at hand?"

Manager Jia said, "Young Master Zhi is the serious master of the family. What matters are important to you? Besides, there are shopkeepers and assistants here in Nanjing, and they will also help. I'm just here to help keep an eye on some things. Some things have to be dealt with in turn."

Without me coming forward."

Bai Xiuzhi said, "Thank you for worrying about it. I have nothing to do here, so you don't have to come over in the future. I am also living with someone else here, so it is really inconvenient for you to come to my door again and again."

When Guanshi Jia heard this, he immediately knelt down in fear and said, "I just care about Master Zhi. I didn't think so much for a while. Please don't take offense to Master Zhi."

When he knelt down like this, Bai Xiuzhi and Meng Fansheng were stunned.

Bai Xiuzhi said quickly, "I don't mean to blame you, I just remind you that it is not appropriate to do this. Just know it in your heart and get up quickly."

Only then did Guanshi Jia slowly get up from the ground.

Bai Xiuzhi said, "Go back and do your work."

Manager Jia suddenly asked, "Have you taken the medicine today, Master Zhi?"

Bai Xiuzhi said, "Not yet, I'll drink it in a while."

Meng Fansheng said from the side, "Look at my brain. I became fascinated as soon as I read a book. I almost forgot about boiling the medicine. I'm going to boil the medicine right now. You wait a moment."

Manager Jia hurriedly chased after him, "Why bother you to do it? You, a scholar, can't do such rough work with your hands, so let me do it."

Meng Fansheng said, "No, no, no, I've done everything. Small things like decoction are not a problem for me."

Manager Jia said, "You are a person who does important things, so you can't do such dirty work. I'd rather boil the medicine. I just happened to catch it, and there's no reason for you to do it. I've done my best to treat the young master."

No worries, I have to go back to Shanghai early tomorrow morning, and I don’t know when I will see Master Zhi next time.”

When Meng Fansheng heard what he said, he looked at Bai Xiuzhi with some embarrassment.

Seeing this, Guanshi Jia knelt down again with a plop, "Master Zhi, please let me do my best."

When Bai Xiuzhi heard that he would leave Nanjing tomorrow, he breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Guanshi Jia's sincere expression, Bai Xiuzhi nodded to Meng Fansheng, "Thank you for your hard work, Guanshi Jia, I will remember your kindness."

.”

Manager Jia was overjoyed and said, "I don't dare take it!" He stood up and started cooking the medicine, looking very cautious.

Meng Fansheng turned back to the inner room and whispered to Bai Xiuzhi, "I'm finally gone. This man is so enthusiastic that I'm a little scared."

Bai Xiuzhi smiled at him and didn't have a good impression of Guanshi Jia.

In other words, he still maintains considerable hostility towards the Bai family.

After a cup of tea, the medicine was ready. Manager Jia greeted Meng Fansheng, who brought it in.

Bai Xiuzhi took it and drank it slowly after cooling it down.

Meng Fansheng kept talking to him, "I still haven't thought about it clearly. Who do you think suddenly rushed out in the middle of the night and slapped you? You really don't need to go to the police station for this matter."

Report it? It has nothing to do with Zhi Jian anyway, and we don’t have to hide it for him. The perpetrator has to be found anyway, right?"

Before he finished speaking, there was a clang and the medicine bowl fell to the ground.

Meng Fansheng was startled, and when he looked up again, he saw Bai Xiuzhi foaming at the mouth, strangling his neck, his face livid and in pain.
