Volume 8, Ripple Reflection VII. Dragon and Phoenix Needle (II)
I don't know how long I slept this night, Zhu Tong was awakened by a quick knock on the door, and when he opened his eyes, it was already dark outside the window.
Ye Er and Chen Yiyi were sitting at both ends of the desk talking in a low voice, and when they saw Zhu Tong wake up, Chen Yiyi chuckled and said, "Don't blame me, Miss Su unplugged the phone, and our mobile phones were turned off, who knew that people would come to the door?" β
"Who is it?" Zhu Tong sat up, very strange, who would be so anxious to see him? Even Wang Juefei will not give Chen Yiyi face.
Ye Er sent a glass of water, and her face was thin and disgusted: "It's Mr. Ikeda, he wants to return to China, and he has to express his gratitude in person." I don't want to think about it, you're tired like this, what's the point of being grateful like that? β
"Don't blame Mr. Ikeda, people don't want to be rude. Miss Su, maybe it's a God of Wealth who is here to give gifts? Chen Yiyi nodded and wished the child: "Have you cleaned up?" Tie, wipe your face, I'll let them wait outside first. "Open the door and go out.
Ye Er was a little embarrassed, sorted out the meter for Zhu Tong, and said in a low voice: "He has already called three times." β
"It's a nuisance." Zhu Tong muttered.
When the door rang, Kazuo Ikeda walked in with Chen Yiyi and bowed deeply to Zhu Tong: "Thank you, Mr. Li, you are the best doctor I have ever met; I have donated 10 million to the China Charity Federation. Mr. Lee, by your meaning, anonymity. β
With both hands, he respectfully handed over a gift box: "I'm sorry, I hope you can forgive me for my presumptuousness." The plane is about to take off, and I want to go back to celebrate the Spring Festival with my family, so it is so rude to delay your rest. A small gift is not a tribute. β
After saying that, Kazuo Ikeda bowed ninety degrees again.
Zhu Tong was not accustomed to such politeness, so he took the gift box, and Ikeda immediately straightened up and smiled sincerely.
"Mr. Ikeda, you have no need to be polite, and we are also responsible for your injury; As doctors, it is what we should do to relieve the pain of patients, and you are too polite. β
After changing into a hospital gown, the crisp suit made the sturdy Kazuo Ikeda full of gentlemanly demeanor; Ye Er followed Zhu Tong and said embarrassedly: "I was not good just now, Mr. Ikeda, please take a seat." β
"No, I know that Dr. Li didn't get off the operating table until noon, because he had to catch a plane, so he took the liberty of bothering. In our hometown, the Chinese New Year is also a very grand event, and my wife has prepared the best pine branches, and I need to go back and decorate the house like a palace with my son and daughter. Mr. Lee, if possible, I hope to be able to entertain you in my hometown. You'll love the sunset over Nagoya. β
As Kazuo Ikeda spoke, he kept looking directly at Zhu Tong, with eager anticipation in it, without a trace of hypocrisy: "I hope to arrange an academic exchange for you, and if you wish, I will ask Imperial University to send you an invitation; You can work as a visiting scholar. They were all curious and said it was a miracle that I was able to recover so quickly. β
Zhu Tong was really embarrassed to be so polite, and took Kazuo Ikeda's hand and sat down on the sofa: "I'm just a Chinese medicine practitioner, and in our country, there are many doctors like me. Besides, I'm still studying, so I can't be a visiting scholar. Mr. Ikeda, if you come to China again, I will entertain you at the best restaurant in Shanghai. β
"Really? You're so polite. In March, I will go to Shanghai; Trouble Mr. Lee. Ikeda stood up and bowed again.
Zhu Tong just said it casually, but he didn't expect the other party to take it seriously.
Kazuo Ikeda was about to catch a plane and took his leave after a few minutes; After he left, Chen Yiyi smiled and said to Zhu Tong: "People can take it seriously, Dr. Li, a meal at the best restaurant in Shanghai will cost you two months' salary." β
Seeing that her lover was so respected by the patient, Ye Er was very happy, and heard Chen Yiyi say that it costs so much money to eat a meal but she didn't care: "A man has to be counted when he speaks, heh!" What is it? β
Zhu Tong was also in a daze, after opening the gift box, there was a delicate dark brown leather box inside, opening the silver clasp, and on the pure white velvet, there were two black needles.
The two black needles, one long and one short, were seven inches long, and the short one was five inches; Miraculously, the two black needles are the same thickness, and both are inlaid with a black nameless spar in the middle.
One end of the long needle is the dragon's head, and the other end of the short needle is the phoenix.
Zhu Tong picked up the long needle and started it very heavy, more than twice as heavy as the gold needle he used in this section; After careful inspection, it was seen that the spar was not originally black, nor was it inlaid on the black needle, and the black needle passed through the spar, dyeing the originally crystal colorless spar into deep black.
What material would be so heavy? He pierced the Lao Gong acupoint in his palm with the tip of a needle, and his mind was immediately refreshed and peaceful; A cold current spread from the black needle to the Shaoyang veins to all parts of the body, and the residual fatigue in all parts of the body was swept away.
Zhu Tong spun the black needle in his hand, and sincerely liked this gift, the cold iron needle, only the needle made of the legendary treasure has such a miraculous effect. However, he is accustomed to weighing everything in terms of money and benefits, and such a pair of needles, plus two mysterious hedrons, are worth ......
"Mr. Li, sixteen years ago, my father collected this pair of dragon and phoenix needles in Beiping; Hui Heji, a Japanese acupuncture master, once commented that people who can use this pair of dragon and phoenix needles may never appear again. A few days ago, Ikeda was impressed by his miraculous medical skills, and he had them brought with him. Please Mr. Li be sure to smile. Treasures should not be collected, and sir is the one who is most qualified to own them. β
Chen Yiyi took out a piece of letterhead from the gift box, and said with a smile after reading it: "This meal is not a loss, Director Li has got the treasure needle." β
"I can't ask for it." Zhu Tong closes the leather case.
"Don't think so much, Mr. Ikeda has good intentions, they only represent a fortune in the hands of ordinary people; If you use them to save a few more people, it will be the best respect for Mr. Ikeda. Chen Yiyi's words of persuasion are also quite reasonable.
Ikeda's gift was almost irresistible, but the little liar never believed that there was a free lunch in the world, nor did he believe that Ikeda would be so generous; The more precious the gift, the greater the price to be paid.
"Alright, I'm going to get off work; Miss Su is so lucky, you picked him up, but you have to keep an eye on him. If Dr. Li were to Japan as a visiting scholar, would he bring back a Japanese sister? Director Li, you're leaving tomorrow, right? Today I wish you a happy new year and Wishing you prosperity. Wishing you new invincible dragons! The book house organizes a year of sweet love and eternal marriage. β
Ye Er didn't speak, and her face was blushing because of Chen Yiyi's blessing: "Miss Chen, I have worked hard for you, and I wish you a happy New Year." She knew that she could go to Phoenix with her lover for a vacation, and Chen Yiyi had to take on the work of holiday duty alone.
Zhu Tong sent Chen Yiyi to the door: "Come back and give you a holiday, thank you, Yiyi." β
"Remember to bring me a gift." Chen Yiyi carried Ye Er on her back and tapped on Zhu Tong's chest, a sad smile flashed on her delicate face; She is wearing a bright dress today, but there is a little loneliness in her back.
"Li Xiang, Miss Chen seems to like you, she kept talking about you just now." After Ye Er closed the door, she snuggled into Zhu Tong's arms and looked up at him; "Come on, are you also tempted?"
It's a lie to say that you don't want to be tempted, it's a fool to say that you're tempted, staring at this more adorable face and shy eyes, Zhu Tong was fascinated, lowered his head and kissed his wet lips, Ye Er groaned, gasped and closed his eyes.
In this section, due to the fusion of butterfly insects, the leaves are more and more beautiful, the fine white skin is fresh and tender, and the two small dimples on the cheeks are really more attractive than fine wine.
What attracts Ye'er to Zhu Tong is the freshness, naturalness and tenderness unique to Jiangnan women, which makes people can't help but cherish her; After the butterfly worm fused into her body, the leaves became a little lighter, and they looked even more beautiful; She is like a lake of smooth and soft water, every time she faces her, Zhu Tong will be washed clean when she is full of bitterness.
A girl in love is sensitive and suspicious, Ye Er has invested all her body and mind in this emotion, although she believes in Li Xiang intellectually, but when she sees Chen Yiyi, she will always be a little uneasy. Perhaps because the two are gradually getting acquainted, Ye'er often shows a little womanhood.
"Fool, I only have Ye'er in my heart, and others can't add it. Your beautiful knife has already chopped me into pieces, and no one can steal it. Zhu Tong hugged her in his lap, let his hand partition feel his heartbeat, and whispered.
Ye Er was happy, naturally, wishing Tong to come to Shanghai for her showed how much he cared about her, and suddenly frowned again.
"Li Xiang, I'm worried."
"Worried about what?"
"As long as we're together, nothing matters; I'm afraid you'll ......."
Zhu Tong woke up and reached out to open his drawer: "Ye'er, is it because of these?" Inside is the red envelope he recently received, more than 200,000 unexplained cash.
Ye Er didn't speak, lowered her head.
"Believe me, Ye'er, I won't be stupid enough to embezzle and take bribes. Money, of course, is a good thing, but I understand that such money is no safer than robbery; Only a fool would associate his future with them. What's more, I still have Ye'er. β
"Then these are ......" Ye Er hugged Zhu Tong with emotion.
"These, they can't be considered bribes, but they're pretty much the same; You know, in today's society, a lot of times it's hard to be alone. They are red envelopes from the deans and directors that cannot be refused. Last time I saw some schools in the countryside of Phoenix that were very dilapidated, I thought that this time I would entrust Chen Abo to use the money to repair the school. Phoenix is our holy place, and it should be more and more beautiful. β
"Li Xiang, God is too good to me."
Ye Er was moved and took the initiative to ask for a kiss; The little crook blushed again.
In fact, Zhu Tong really wouldn't take such money; As a professional liar, he studied these thoroughly.
Bribery and embezzlement may be more dangerous than theft and robbery; Robbery can be committed on the go, and some masters will plan to do a big one for many years, and then they will not be able to hide, and they will not be able to start if they want to investigate.
Bribery and embezzlement are basically carried out under the condition that many people know or can think of, as long as someone with a heart is operating in secret, it does not take much effort to find clues.
The promises of bribe-givers, like their character, are the weakest fig leaf in the world, and they cannot withstand the baptism of many storms. With Zhu Tong's IQ, he will not be stupid enough to put his fate in the hands of others.
The dreamy quiet stay together is a luxury in today's Zhutong.
The phone rang again, Lan Zhanjiang's call came, the appointed time had come, and Zhu Tong had to go to the rivers and lakes to attend a ridiculous negotiation.
"Ye'er, I want an alliance, you go back and clean up and take Yin and Yang with you; We drove to Phoenix. β
You can't take pets on the train, Ye Er has already sent Yin Yang to her sister, and when she heard that Zhu Tong was going to drive to Phoenix, she hesitated: "Your body ......"
"It's okay, I just slept well."
"I called Lanting, she was also going to Phoenix for the New Year, and said in the morning that there were some things that had not been dealt with, and she would take a plane tomorrow; All the way, you two will drive instead. β
Ye'er was happy, Zhu Tong watched helplessly as she dialed Mei Lanting's phone, and smiled bitterly in her heart: Ye'er, Ye'er, you are really a child.
