Master's Little Girl Has Grown Up

2A trace of complicated emotion flashed past Chu Xi's eyes. She paused for a moment, then asked, "What… is the deal?"     3

    

Chu Feng's deep eyes stared at her. After a while, he said, "Xi, is it that I did something wrong that you cannot completely trust me? Since young, you have always been like this. No matter if you are sick or not, you always hide it in your heart and never tell me. Why?"    

    

"You… you know?"    

    

"Yes, I know."    

    

"I don't want you to worry. I…" Chu Xi suddenly stopped. A strong pain assaulted her. She immediately stood up. "I'll go back to my room."    

    

Seeing that, Chu Feng also stood up. "What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?"    

    

When he got close to her, Chu Xi felt even more uncomfortable. She subconsciously took a step back. "It's fine, it's fine after taking the medicine. I'll go back to my room and take the medicine."    

    

Because she subconsciously took a step back, Chu Feng wanted to help her hand freeze in midair. Seeing the girl run away, his heart ached.    

    

After a few seconds, he immediately chased after her.    

    

After taking the medicine, the pain was instantly suppressed. Chu Xi took a deep breath. Luckily, she brought the medicine with her.    

    

"Are you feeling better?" Chu Feng asked softly.    

    

Chu Xi looked at him, her eyes filled with apology. "Brother, I'm sorry…"    

    

"Does it always hurt like this? Why don't you tell me? Xi, why?"    

    

"When I was young, you always worried about me because of my illness. I don't want you to worry about me even after I grow up. I hope I can solve the problems that I can solve myself."    

    

"What is our relationship? Isn't it right for me to care about you? Xi, when will you understand? I hope you can rely on me more!"    

    

Chu Xi bit her lips and did not speak.    

    

"If you had told me earlier, you wouldn't have waited so long to find the spiritual grass. I know that the Gu family has the spiritual grass. Gu Ziluo told me before. Xi, you always don't want me to worry about you, but you never thought that if you two think of a way together, it might be half the work and twice the result."    

    

Chu Xi looked at him in shock. He was indeed here to find the spiritual grass.    

    

"You … How did you know?"    

    

"Is it important?"    

    

"…"    

    

Chu Feng looked at the time and said, "You rest in the hotel. I have arranged to meet Big Brother Gu Ziluo at nine o'clock. It's about time. I should go."    

    

Chu Xi said, "I'll go. I'll talk to him."    

    

Chu Feng looked at her sharply, his handsome face full of displeasure.    

    

Chu Xi moved her lips. She originally wanted to not go with him, but when she thought about the Gu poison that might flare up at any time, she swallowed her words back.    

    

She did not want Chu Feng to see her repeatedly flare up.    

    

"I got it. I'll wait for you in the hotel."    

    

Before leaving, Chu Feng said again, "When the Gu poison is cured, we'll settle the score properly!"    

    

"…"    

    

After Chu Feng left, Chu Xi sighed lightly and sat on the sofa. After a while, Gu Ziluo called back.    

    

"Xi, I'm sorry. I just woke up."    

    

"It's fine." Recalling what Gu Ziluo said when they called yesterday, Chu Xi immediately asked, "Did we suddenly go to find you when we were calling yesterday?"    

    

"Uh…" Gu Ziluo laughed dryly, "You know, I was going to tell you, but he didn't let me. Oh right, he came for the spirit grass too. Is it for you?"    

    

"Yes, yes."    

    

"That's good. It's good that you two didn't have a conflict. Otherwise, I wouldn't know who to give it to."    

    

"Did you talk to your brother?"    

    

"Not really, but I helped them arrange a meeting. As for the specifics, we'll see how they negotiate."    

    

"I know. I still have to thank you."    

    

Chu Xi waited quietly in the room. Time passed by minute and second. Soon, two hours had passed. Chu Feng still hadn't returned, so she was a bit worried.    

    

Gu Ziluo's big brother was not a person to be trifled with. His way of doing things was to prioritize benefits. He would definitely take advantage of this opportunity to obtain the greatest benefits for himself. It would definitely not be as simple as getting money.    

    

She suddenly regretted asking Chu Feng to talk to him. She should have done it herself.    

    

After another half an hour, Chu Feng finally returned. Chu Xi ran over to him and asked, "How was it? Did that person not take the opportunity to ask for a ridiculous price?"    

    

Hearing that, Chu Feng frowned slightly. "You are concerned about this?"    

    

"… No, of course I am more concerned about whether he will give us the spiritual grass or not."    

    

After a moment of pause, Chu Feng said, "He will send the spiritual grass over in a while."    

    

"You two have reached an agreement?"    

    

"Yes."    

    

"How much does he want? Did you agree to any conditions?"    

    

"You don't need to worry about that. When he sends the spiritual grass over, we will immediately return to the capital."    

    

Not long after, a man walked in.    

    

"Director Chu, this is the thing that my family's young master asked me to give to you." The man handed an exquisite box to Chu Feng.    

    

Chu Feng took the box and opened it. There were a few spiritual grasses inside. He turned around and handed it to Chu Xi. "Look, is this it?"    

    

Chu Xi took the box and picked up the spiritual grass. She looked at it and nodded. "Yes, this is it."    

    

Chu Feng looked at the man. "I have received the thing. Thank Young Master Gu for me."    

    

The man smiled. "Okay. If Director Chu has nothing else to do, I will go back."    

    

"Okay."    

    

The man turned around and left.    

    

Chu Feng stood up. "Let's go."    

    

"Okay."    

    

Chu Xi carried the box and the two of them left together.    

    

Thousand Evil Alliance.    

    

Chu Xi ran into the laboratory. "Master, I'm back. Here are the spiritual grasses."    

    

On the way, she called Bai Wuchen and told him that she had already obtained the spirit grass.    

    

Bai Wuchen took the spirit grass and said, "Let me take a look."    

    

"Is it enough?" Chu Xi asked.    

    

"It should be enough."    

    

Chu Xi pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "Master, this Gu poison should still have the Love Poison. Every time Chu Feng gets close to me, I will instantly flare up."    

    

"What?! Why didn't you say so earlier?"    

    

"It would be useless even if I told you that I couldn't find the spirit grass."    

    

"If there is still the Love Poison, then there might be another thing."    

    

"Ah! What is it?"    

    

"Don't worry, we have it."    

    

"...Master, can you not gasp for breath when you speak? You scared me."    

    

Bai Wuchen chuckled lightly, "So you also know how to be afraid!"    

    

"Of course I am afraid…"    

    

Chu Feng waited in the living room, his gaze always focused on the direction of the laboratory.    

    

Faang Zui comforted him, "Chu Feng, don't worry. The spirit grass has been found. Xiao Xi will definitely be fine."    

    

Chu Feng turned his head to look at him and suddenly asked, "Faang Zui, who did this to Xi?"    

    

Faang Zui raised his eyebrows, "What are you trying to do? Revenge?"    

    

Chu Feng said, "I just want to know."    

    

"Chu Feng, the Alliance Master and Master Zhan have already dealt with this matter. Don't interfere anymore."    

    

After a few seconds, Chu Feng slowly said, "It was someone from the E Royal Family, right?"    

    

"No!" Faang Zui immediately denied.    

    

Chu Feng did not continue to ask. Although Faang Zui denied it, he already had an answer in his heart.
