The Abandoned Son Ch.136

Chapter 136 — Visiting the Company

“Young Master Ye,” Hou An stood at the door and called out respectfully.

Hou An didn’t show up for several days, and Ye Fan almost forgot about this person.

“You’re here, are the medicinal herbs ready?” Ye Fan asked.

Hou An nodded and said, “Everything is ready.”

Ye Fan looked at Hou An and said suspiciously, “Your complexion seems to be getting worse again! Reach out and let me see.”

Hou An obediently stretched out his hand, Ye Fan grabbed Hou An’s hand, took a pulse, and subconsciously frowned.

Hou An asked worriedly, “Young Master Ye, what’s wrong?”

Ye Fan looked at Hou An and said puzzledly, “You’ve taken a lot of medicine again! Didn’t I tell you not to take medicine indiscriminately?”

Hou An said a little embarrassedly: “My parents…that…”

In line with the principle that eggs cannot be put in one basket, his parents found a few genius doctors for him, and he was given a lot of medicines. As a result, he went into shock a few days ago and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.

The parents were very frightened by his shock, so the parents put all their hopes on Ye Fan and did their best to collect the elixir prescribed on Ye Fan’s list.

The elixir prescribed on Ye Fan’s list, there are many herbal medicine dealers who have never heard of it. The parents thought that Ye Fan was fooling them. Later, they found out that there were so many kinds of medicines. However, it is very difficult to collect. In order to get the medicinal materials on the list, the family trusts the relationship, and it cost them 200 million to find a way.

Ye Fan glanced at Hou An and said earnestly: “Although you are young, you should still pay attention to your body and don’t take medicine indiscriminately. You want to pass on the lineage! You don’t take care of yourself like this, how can it be cured?”

Hearing Ye Fan’s follow-up warning, Hou An instantly had the desire to find a crack in the ground to get in!

“Young Master Ye, I heard that there were extreme weather phenomena in this place two days ago. The temperature dropped by dozens of degrees, and it was freezing.” Although the hottest time has passed, the current temperature is also 20 degrees.

“Maybe, I’m not very clear,” Ye Fan tilted his head and said.

Hou An: “…” Not very clear? Young Master Ye, how could you not be clear? The chill is overflowing from your villa ah.

“Come in with me,” Ye Fan said.

Hou An nodded and said, “Okay.”

“Young Master Ye, do you know what happened to that woman last time?” Hou An couldn’t help but ask curiously.

“She? I heard she died?” Ye Fan replied with a lack of interest.

Hou An was full of confusion and said, “Isn’t she an ancient martial arts practitioner that is very powerful?”

“Very powerful? Not too powerful!” Ye Fan shook his head and said again: “The people of their sect all want to serve the Moon God. For a mortal like you, approaching them is blasphemy, you know? You are really bold and courageous enough to touch the woman of God.”

“Didn’t I not know before that she was a woman of God?” If he knew the “noble” origin of that woman, he wouldn’t dare to touch her even if he was beaten to death! “How did she die?”

“I heard that it was a sacrifice! It was their sect people who killed her and sent her to their god,” Ye Fan said lightly.

“Killed her and sent her to God? Are all ancient martial artists so mentally ill?” Hou An couldn’t help but ask. In ancient times, there were human sacrifices, but now it is a legal society!

Ye Fan shrugged and said, “I don’t know! Some ancient martial artists specialize in assassination, some are in the business of selling organs, and some are servants of gods, and some specialize in selling gu worms and cheating women for money, it seems that there are not many normal ones.”

Hou An: “…”

“You wait here, I’m going down to make alchemy,” Ye Fan said.

Hou An immediately said: “Young Master Ye, go ahead and get busy.”

As soon as Ye Fan left, Hou An felt a little bored.

There was a rustling sound, and Hou An couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. Ye Fan’s villa was a haunted house, Hou An knew it for a long time. As soon as Ye Fan left, Hou An felt that the villa was empty and the yin atmosphere was very heavy.

A cup fell to the ground with a “bang” sound, and Hou An quickly stood up in fright.

Hou An stood up and found out what was going on. There was a big turtle on the table, and it was the turtle that knocked down the cup.

“What a strong tortoise!” Hou An couldn’t help but thought, it was a false alarm.

The tortoise gave Hou An a scornful look, and ate a piece of ginseng.

Ye Fan came out of the alchemy room and saw Hou An squatting in front of the tortoise, looking at the tortoise with a piercing expression, one person and one tortoise, looking at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

“Young Master Hou, what are you doing?”

Hou An hurriedly said, “Young Master Ye, this tortoise just stole a piece of ginseng.”

Ye Fan waved his hand and said, “He didn’t steal it, that was originally his ration.”

“Young Master Ye, you feed the turtle with ginseng?” Hou An said in surprise.

“It doesn’t eat anything else!” Ye Fan shook his head and said.

Hou An: “…” Young Master Ye deserves to be Young Master Ye, the way of raising a turtle is different from ordinary people.

…

“The medicine pill has been refined, you can take it now,” Ye Fan looked at Hou An and said.

Hou An nodded and said, “Okay.”

When the medicine pill entered, it was so bitter that Hou An almost spit it out. Ye Fan patted Hou An, and the medicinal pill rolled down his throat and entered his stomach. Hou An only felt that his stomach was full of bitterness.

“You can’t vomit! If you vomit, a lot of money will go to waste.”

After listening to Ye Fan’s words, Hou An immediately covered his mouth.

Ye Fan’s palm rested on Hou An’s back and dissolved the medicinal power for Hou An. Ancient martial arts practitioners could dissolve the medicinal power on their own, but Hou An was just an ordinary person.

Hou An took out a mirror and looked at it, “Young Master Ye, I’m handsome again!”

Hou An hurriedly said, “Young Master Ye, I’m back to my original appearance.”

“You weren’t handsome in your original look either!”

Hou An: “… Anyway, Young Master Ye, thank you very much!”

Ye Fan waved his hand and said: “You’re welcome, you paid so I should save you. Next time you encounter such a thing, you can come to me.”

Hou An shuddered violently. Next time, next time, he might be beaten to death by a slap. Hou An secretly made up his mind that next time he couldn’t figure out the background of the beautiful girl, he would never strike up a conversation.

…

After sending Hou An away, Ye Fan had a few more days of leisure.

Without business, Ye Fan hid in the villa, concocting pills and cultivating.

Relying on the pills refined from the spirit flame fruit sent by Mu Lianping, Ye Fan’s cultivation level rose steadily to the seventh level of Qi cultivation. After entering the seventh level, Ye Fan’s cultivation level entered the bottleneck again.

The bored Ye Fan walked downstairs to the company.

“Young Maste Ye is here, you haven’t been here for a long time!” The customer service lady said enthusiastically when she saw Ye Fan.

“I’m here to look around and inspect, work hard, I won’t let Yunxi treat you badly.” Ye Fan put his hands on his back and put on a leader’s stance.

The customer service lady smiled and said, “Alright, alright.”

Ye Fan held his head high and took the elevator away.

Ye Fan walked into the office and saw Bai Yunxi working on documents.

“Why are you here?” Bai Yunxi glanced at Ye Fan and asked.

“I’m bored at home, so I came out to see you!” Ye Fan found a chair and sat opposite Bai Yunxi.

“I’m busy, I don’t have time to entertain you. Go out and play by yourself,” Bai Yunxi said coldly.

Ye Fan looked at Bai Yunxi and said dully: “Yunxi, you are not as enthusiastic about me as you used to be.”

Bai Yunxi looked at Ye Fan, tilted his head, and said, “There is a saying that distance produces beauty, do you know that? I have to deal with you at night, it’s already hard enough, I don’t want to be idle during the day!”

Bai Yunxi frowned, and secretly said: Ye Fan is so energetic in bed affairs, he never listens when he tells him to rest, it’s useless to say anything. Sometimes, he really wants to put a vase beside the bed. So when Ye Fan doesn’t want to stop, just take the vase and knock this guy out! This guy, Ye Fan, is jobless so he can sleep in, but he has to go to work.

Ye Fan looked at Bai Yunxi depressedly, and said, “Yunxi, you despise me!”

Bai Yunxi stood up and said, “Yes, I’m going to a meeting soon, get out of here.”

Ye Fan rushed over and pressed Bai Yunxi onto the sofa, “Don’t have a meeting, let’s double cultivate.”

As Ye Fan said, he kissed Bai Yunxi’s face.

Bai Yunxi moved his body and found that Ye Fan’s strength was so great that he was suppressed and couldn’t even move!

Seeing the flames burning in Ye Fan’s eyes, Bai Yunxi realized that this guy, Ye Fan, was not joking. Bai Yunxi was angry and frustrated, but he was a little helpless.

Bai Yunxi tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart, took a deep breath, and said, “Ye Fan, don’t mess around!”

Ye Fan shook his head and said, “I’m not messing around! The book says that in a place like the office, it’s especially passionate!”

Bai Yunxi: “…” Passionate, your head! Reading some rotten books all day long, he doesn’t know where they came from. It’s okay to keep tossing around at night, but now he’s coming to the office.

Bai Yunxi took a deep breath again, and didn’t dare to say anything serious. After all, this guy Ye Fan doesn’t understand people’s words. If he gets angry, this guy Ye Fan will see it as flirting.

“What book have you been reading recently?” Bai Yunxi asked patiently.

“The Overbearing President’s Secretary Lover!” Ye Fan replied.

Bai Yunxi: “…” As soon as he heard it, he knew it was a brain-dead book. It should be that the brain-dead president fell in love with a hard-working assistant, all kinds of office play. Maybe it was written by elementary school students who didn’t graduate, all kinds of greasy and crooked flesh. If this idiot actually likes this kind of book, it is no wonder that he is getting more and more stupid.

“I found that the secretary job is very good, or I will be your secretary?” Ye Fan asked.

Bai Yunxi: “…” Ye Fan wants to be his secretary. This guy’s standards have been lowered. Before, this guy seemed to have found his big brother and asked him to arrange a president or chairman position with an annual salary of tens of billions. His big brother was almost scared to death.

“No, I already have several secretaries, and I don’t need you.”

Ye Fan blinked and said, “They can’t compare to me! I can do everything.”

“Where did you buy all your little yellow books?” Bai Yunxi asked.

“Cai Zhenjun got it for me. Although that guy is a mud that can’t support the wall, he is quite capable in some things.”

Bai Yunxi rolled his eyes, what a broken skill!
