Chapter 1528 – Humble Pharmacy

On this day, the two of them had spared no expense with spending time with each other. They hadn’t seen each other for a long time and they seemed to have endless things to tell each other. They told each other what had happened to themselves over the last few months and of their lovesickness for each other.

From the moment of their acquaintance to developing feelings for each other, it had seemed a very natural process. Right from the beginning when she had molested him till him expressing his intentions to Feng Jiu’s blunt rejection, to their agreement of their ten year contract.

Although ten years had not pa.s.sed, but after a few years had pa.s.sed, they weren’t sure when exactly, their hearts now had a place for each other, it was so natural, there wasn’t any actual reason why it had happened either.

The next morning.

“No need to see me off. Once I have settled the matter I will come to look for you.” Xuanyuan Mo Ze said to Feng Jiu when she walked out with him to the outer courtyard.

Feng Jiu nodded: “Well, be careful. I will be here waiting for you to come back.”

Xuanyuan Mo Ze hugged her and kissed her forehead: “Take care of yourself and don’t worry about me all the time.”

When she heard this, Feng Jiu grinned and laughed: “Look at you, you speak as if I am a troublemaker.” Saying that, she couldn’t help but chuckled and rolled her eyes. Her eyes then narrowed and she said: “But speaking of which, it seems that I really am a troublemaker! It’s never peaceful anywhere I go.”

“It’s okay. If you cause trouble, I will take care of it for you. Just take care of yourself and don’t get hurt all the time.” He said, and he held her hands and gazed deep into her eyes.

They had only spent a few days with each other and now he had to leave to settle matters at h.e.l.l’s Palace. It had come at such an untimely time.

When she saw his reluctance, her eyes narrowed with a smile and she said: “Alright, you should go! The earlier you leave the earlier you will return.”

In the end, after repeated urging from her, Xuanyuan Mo Ze finally turned and left….

Feng Jiu only returned to the courtyard after he had left. After she had breakfast with her mother, she left her in Leng Shuang’s care. She then changed into men’s clothing and took Du Fan out with her.

It was a rare opportunity to be able to go out with his Master and Du Fan’s eyes could barely hide his joy. Along the way, he followed Feng Jiu’s side prim and proper and protected her safety.

When he saw her walking to the other side of the street, Du Fan who was next to her was taken aback, and asked: “Master, I thought you wanted to go to the Black Market? The Black Market is on that street over there.”

“Isn’t Leng Hua at the shop? I will drop by on the way.”

As she replied, she walked in the direction of the shop. It was a shop that they had opened when they made this their base. It was normally either Leng Hua or Du Fan who would look after the shop, along with a member of staff they had employed.

Upon hearing that she had wanted to drop by the shop, Du Fan didn’t say anything but followed her quietly. When they arrived in front of the shop and Feng Jiu saw Leng Hua doing business there, she smiled and walked inside.

When he saw Feng Jiu walking in, Leng Hua smiled and instructed the employee to take care of the customers while he invited Feng Jiu into the back hall and asked: “Master, why are you here? Is there something wrong?”

“I was planning to go to the Black Market and decided to stop by to have a look.” She sat down by the table and asked: “Is everything here alright?”

Leng Hua smiled mildly and replied: “Business as usual, we sell ordinary herbs and medicines. We only show some of the regular customers the really good stuff.”

On the surface, they sold ordinary herbs and medicines. However, behind the doors, a few regular customers knew that their humble pharmacy also sold good things that weren’t readily available outside.
