Chapter 643 Old Uncle Zheng
Hong Kong media reporters have been very busy these two days, and the front page is not worried about being unattended.
Because Liu Zhixiong and the newly brought-in seventh-bedroom 'aunt' to the mansion are enough for them to perform.
Today, a large number of high-end feminine furniture is moved in and decorated, tomorrow the designers of evening gowns and four-season uniforms customized by major famous brands come to visit, and chefs from major restaurants are summoned to cook at Liu's house in turn.
Not to mention that Liu Zhixiong's other girlfriends don't have this kind of treatment. They haven't even entered Liu's house yet.
In contrast to the two, the Hong Kong media followed several other people for interviews.
"Julie, what do you think about the seventh aunt moving into the Liu family's mansion first?"
"Miss Qiao, I heard that Mr. Liu bought you an jade necklace last month and said he loved you the most. How do you feel now that he has changed his mind?"
"Have you met the new sisters?"
……
The local folk customs are open, and it is common for some wealthy businessmen to have several girlfriends. Anyway, they have no status and each takes what they need. They are not involved in the relationship. In private, they can still treat each other as sisters.
But now the balance was broken by a wild sparrow that flew from nowhere. Seeing Liu Zhixiong's attitude of wanting to pile up gold and silver in front of her, these girlfriends were naturally unhappy.
I just happened to find out that the other party was going to attend the jewelry auction two days later, so everyone made preparations in full swing.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Hong Kong's largest jewelry auction house, Fujin Hin, held a charity dinner.
As soon as Liu Zhixiong's black Bentley appeared, the paparazzi who were hiding aside rushed towards him.
"Mr. Liu, is the new seventh concubine in your car?"
"Mr. Liu, would it be convenient to disclose the progress between you and the seventh concubine?"
The trunk door opened, and Liu Zhixiong, who was tall and fat, got out first, and impatiently asked the bodyguard to disperse the crowd, "Don't get so close, you are joining in the fun, or you may bump into my noble lady."
The paparazzi were immediately rushed aside, their cameras were taken away, and the film was deleted.
"Why are you doing this? The media is free and the public has the right to know!"
Hong Kong reporters have always been aggressive and unreasonable, and they also like to mess around. Because celebrities and wealthy businessmen sometimes have to cooperate with them to guide the trend, they are very arrogant.
But this time Liu Zhixiong was not merciful at all, and even asked a bodyguard to twist the arm of the paparazzi who was the loudest, "Send him to the police station and sue him for spreading rumors and infringing on my image rights. I will not be sentenced to three years. I, Liu Zhixiong, will take your last name."
As soon as he got tough, the paparazzi immediately turned their backs on him and even looked at each other, feeling that the matter was not simple.
Usually, wealthy businessmen like this are very happy to read their own tidbits. After all, it is very honorable for greasy old men to pick up female celebrities and bring out young female anchors. Generally, they turn a blind eye to paparazzi reports.
This was the case with Liu Zhixiong’s previous girlfriends.
But now, out of character, they are not even allowed to take photos.
On the other end, Liu Zhixiong had already rushed over and opened the door to greet him.
The girl who got off the car had an amazingly delicate face, but she was naked and wearing loose cotton and linen clothes. She didn't look like she was here to compete for beauty as a female companion.
"Master Ye, let's go this way, Uncle Zheng is waiting for us." He led the way, bending slightly, and his posture was as submissive as possible.
The girl looked cold, and simply nodded before passing through the golden revolving door and entering the exclusive elevator.
The paparazzi looked on blankly and couldn't figure out what was going on.
Tonight's game was indeed invited by Liu Zhixiong, but he was just the middleman who made the connection.
The person who really invited Ye Lan to come was Uncle Zheng, the owner of Fujinxuan Jewelry Store.
The elevator goes straight to the thirteenth floor. When the door opens, there is a dimly lit exhibition hall. Every glass cabinet inside has spells pasted on it. There is also a Bagua array placed on the top lintel.
Ye Lan glanced at it and saw that it was used to ward off evil spirits and avoid evil.
"Cough cough..."
In the distance, there was a sound of coughing, and along with the sound of a wheelchair rolling on the ground, a man who looked like a housekeeper pushed an old man out.
"Uncle Zheng, what's wrong with you?" Liu Zhixiong was shocked when he saw the old man. He couldn't help but stepped forward to care: "You told me on the phone that you were not feeling well, but you didn't say that you were sick to this extent. Why don't you go to the hospital? If you are afraid of turmoil in your family's business, just tell me and I will help you."
Although Liu Zhixiong is greedy for money and lust, he also values love and justice.
Uncle Zheng saved him when he was down and out, and now Liu Zhixiong regards him as his relative. This time, when he heard that he was in trouble, he begged Ye Lan to come out.
Uncle Zheng looked to be only sixty years old, but he had silver hair, even his eyebrows were turning white, and his face was loose and wrinkled, as if his energy had been sucked dry.
Hearing this, he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I am more afraid of death than you. How could it be that I have never gone there to see it? I just checked everything and found no problems, so I asked you to help find the master. I spent the first two I can still walk, but today I can’t. I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold on for a few more days if this continues.”
As he spoke, he sighed, his eyes already covered with a layer of deathly gray.
After Liu Zhixiong experienced the experience in the demonic waters, he could still vaguely distinguish the aura of people. Now he saw that Uncle Zheng's face was covered with a gray death aura, and he anxiously held his hand and comforted him: "No. Yes, I have hired the best Xuanmen master for you, there will definitely be no problem with her taking action."
After the words fell, he turned back and looked at Ye Lan expectantly.
Uncle Zheng also followed his line of sight and looked over. He was slightly startled when he saw Ye Lan, and then his expression became excited. He stood up with his wheelchair and saluted, "I don't know if the eminent monk came in person, but I didn't welcome him from afar. I did something wrong. I also ask the eminent monk to forgive me.”
The housekeeper behind him hurriedly supported him to prevent him from falling.
Liu Zhixiong opened his mouth and before he could react, Ye Lan raised his eyebrows first.
"Can you see what's on me?"
Hearing this, Uncle Zheng shook his head and said truthfully: "I can't see it, but you have the Buddha's light that I am familiar with. When I was a child, my grandfather gave me a string of Buddhist beads, and there was the Buddha's light on them. I have been carrying them close to me for so many years, and I have only seen this kind of light in the Potala Palace in Tibet and in you so far, and it is definitely not fake."
He took out a string of beads from his heart.
Ye Lan recognized at a glance that there was a fragment of half a relic on it, which was also the source of the Buddha's light he felt.
"You're welcome. Since you trust me, let's talk about what's going on here first."
Ye Lan waved her hand and asked him to sit down first.
Uncle Zheng bowed to her devoutly before sitting back in the wheelchair and talking about his strange illness.
"The matter has to start with me bringing back these national treasures that were lost overseas..."
It turns out that the ancestors of the Zheng family were descendants of the Manchus from the Zhenghuang Banner who came from the imperial court. They settled in Hong Kong because of the war. After becoming rich, their ancestors have been working hard to find the lost national treasure.
Until recently when a batch of national treasures came back, Uncle Zheng went to the dock to check it himself. As a result, he had a high fever for several days after returning home. After the fever subsided, not only did his hair turn gray overnight, but he also began to have many problems with his body. When he went to the hospital for a checkup, it turned out that his organs were Rapid depletion.
