Section 500
Skillfully navigating to the predetermined spot.
Ordering the dishes.
To ease the tension between Master Xu Hao and Junior Sister.
Feng Zixuan intentionally wanted them to get closer.
So she arranged Xu Qingxue's seat in the middle.
She herself sat right next to her, not letting Xu Qingxue escape.
Xu Qingxue understood the Senior Sister's intention.
She was speechless inside.
Senior Sister probably overthought it.
Given her relationship with Xu Hao, reconciliation was simply impossible…
Senior Sister's actions were just futile effort.
Xu Qingxue resisted in her heart, but she couldn't bring herself to refuse outright.
Senior Sister meant well.
So she just went along with it…
Su Chen, who was secretly following, saw this and was so angry his teeth itched.
He couldn't help but blame Feng Zixuan.
He also saw—
Xu Qingxue and Xu Hao had a bad relationship, and this Junior Sister was playing peacemaker.
You're harming the Junior Sister.
Do you think Xu Hao is a good person?
Believe me, once he gets familiar with the Junior Sister, he'll devour her completely.
Actually, they don't even need to get familiar.
Thinking about what he saw on the crooked tree before.
Su Chen was about to burn up…
Feng Zixuan didn't know when she had become Xu Hao's disciple.
She was used to hands-on teaching, and he took advantage of her at every turn.
Now it was the Junior Sister's turn.
Both Junior Sisters were so beautiful.
Falling into the hands of a scumbag like Xu Hao, the consequences were unimaginable.
[Ding… Su Chen's mentality exploded, Emotion Points +852…]
Considering they still had to go back to practice after the meal.
Feng Zixuan didn't order alcohol, but had someone bring a pot of tea.
She filled the cups for the three of them.
When the dishes were all served, Feng Zixuan raised her teacup to Xu Hao.
"Master, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to teach us Medical Skill."
"We toast you with tea instead of wine…"
Seeing that Junior Sister Xu Qingxue didn't react, she nudged her with her elbow twice.
Xu Qingxue reluctantly raised her cup.
Xu Hao smiled and said.
"You are my disciple and my daughter. No matter how little time I have, I'll make time…"
The three cups clinked lightly in the air.
After the toast, they started eating.
Xu Qingxue and Xu Hao had nothing to say to each other, and it was always Feng Zixuan, the Senior Sister, who kept the conversation going.
"Master… at our current learning pace, can we master it within ten days? western medicine should be about to release their treatment results."
"With those people's nature, they'll definitely push the blame onto our Shennong Hall."
"If by then I still haven't mastered the Tianyi Nine Needles, we'll be in big trouble…"
Xu Hao frowned, as if in deep thought.
Then he said with a firm expression.
"You have high talent in medicine. According to the current learning progress, it will take about 10 days, at most no more than 15 days."
"You will be able to fully master the Tianyi Nine Needles, and treatment will not be a problem…"
Getting Xu Hao's affirmative answer.
Feng Zixuan relaxed a little, a smile blooming on her face.
Xu Hao's words relieved the huge pressure on her heart.
"Master, how long did it take you to learn the Tianyi Nine Needles back then?"
"What level has your Medical Skill reached now…"
Feng Zixuan was really racking her brains to bring the father and daughter closer.
She kept finding topics to avoid an awkward silence.
Seeing Xu Hao reaching for a dish that was on the opposite side, a bit far away.
He would have to stand up slightly to reach it.
Feng Zixuan had an idea.
She extended her chopsticks, picked up the dish, and put it in Xu Hao's bowl.
"Zixuan, I can do it myself. You're making me embarrassed by picking up food for me…"
Xu Hao refused on the surface.
But in his heart, he smiled with satisfaction.
Seeing the prompt about the protagonist Su Chen's Emotion Points that appeared in his mind.
He was very pleased.
He didn't miss any opportunity to harvest Emotion Points.
Xu Hao was polite, and Feng Zixuan waved her hand and said.
"It's no trouble, Master. I'm closer from here. Uncle, just tell me what you want to eat…"
And so.
Whenever Xu Hao wanted to eat a dish across the table, Feng Zixuan would quickly pick it up for him.
Xu Hao expressed appreciation for her actions.
This disciple had a bright future.
Feng Zixuan didn't feel impatient picking up food for Xu Hao.
But seeing Xu Qingxue silently eating her own food beside her.
She felt something was off.
That's not right…
Wasn't she supposed to bring this father and daughter together, to have them show filial piety and parental love?
Why was she the only one being filial to the Master?
How could that be?
Her eyes rolled, and Feng Zixuan thought of an idea.
Clatter—
She pretended to drop her chopsticks on the floor.
While picking them up, she said to Xu Qingxue.
"Qingxue, help me pick up some food for the Master. I'll go get new chopsticks."
"Doesn't she have hands…"
Xu Qingxue was reluctant, but she still extended her chopsticks and put food into Xu Hao's bowl.
She didn't want to deal with Xu Hao.
But she couldn't disobey the Senior Sister's orders.
Feng Zixuan said that picking up food for Xu Hao was to help her, not that she wanted to do it herself.
