Chapter 233 – Recovery

Naturally, this was only a temporary relief. If Wei Xiao Bei truly wanted to get rid of this illness, he needed to stick more needles into him.

When it was Zhu Xin Yi’s turn, things were a lot easier.

Wei Xiao Bei only told Zhu Xin Yi to change into thinner clothes. Then he touched the spots that needed to be needled and directly inserted them. As for infection caused by needles penetrating the clothes, there should be no problems.

The chance of it happening was extremely small, and with Zhu Xin Yi’s vitality, such a problem should not occur.

At night, Wei Xiao Bei used the mugwort leaf to perform moxibustion on the two of them.

Only when the two things were done could it be called acupuncture and moxibustion. Just inserting needles could not be considered as the complete treatment.

One week passed, and the injury on Wei Xiao Bei’s back had more or less healed itself. At the very least, there were no problems with running.

This kind of recovery speed would have doctors inspecting him with a microscope.

It must be known that the injury on Wei Xiao Bei’s back had reached his internal organs. There were even parts of his body that had been penetrated through.

With current medical methods, treating them was not difficult but it would at least require more than three months.

Other than his own recovery ability, Wei Xiao Bei’s Qi training also had a good effect on his injuries.

He had also browsed through materials on using internal energy to heal. He discovered that to make healing faster and more effective, he needed to circulate his Qi more through the acupuncture points closest to the injury.

This was the essence of using internal energy to heal!

During this period of time, Wei Xiao Bei had learned a lot about acupuncture and moxibustion. Although he made his two disciples into test subjects, his high learning attribute coupled with his high [Medicine] skill allowed him to quickly grasp this medical skill.

This acupuncture and moxibustion had not yet reached the peak, but it was at the very least on the level of 17-18 years of experience.

After dealing with these matters, Wei Xiao Bei placed his attention on the [Cooking] skill. After killing Mao An Ge, his evolution points now totalled up to 1720 points.

He had prepared to place them into his [Cooking] skill, but the prerequisite of cooking 300 colorful dishes was not yet finished!

Until today, Wei Xiao Bei had only made three colorful dishes.

These colorful dishes was not as easy to deal with compared to making flavorful and fragrant dishes. He needed to make the dish beautiful! Only then would it be considered as one dish!

Thus, Wei Xiao Bei called Huang Kun and asked if he could help with this matter.

The previous fast food restaurant that Huang Kun had described was out of the question.

It was easy just to imagine it, who would make the food beautiful in fast food chains? Food there would be cooked in big woks and pans and flow like an assembly line.

It might be flavorful and fragrant, but beautiful or colorful was something it definitely wasn’t.

After all, the price of a boxed lunch or packed lunch was something that could not be compared to luxurious restaurants.

After hearing his master’s request, Huang Kun did not get discouraged and patted his chest, displaying a ‘leave it to me’ expression.

Before dinner, Huang Kun came to Wei Xiao Bei and expressed that the deal was done, but there was one slight problem.

Wei Xiao Bei looked at Huang Kun and understood that it was related to his mother.

After thinking about it, he understood. Huang Kun was a junior high student that skipped classes. Even if Huang Kun could do it, he would still need the help of his mother.

Sure enough, Huang Kun mumbled that his mother wanted to see Wei Xiao Bei.

Facing this issue, Wei Xiao Bei did not think much about it as this was inevitable.

Moreover, Huang Kun had not returned home for a long time. If it was a different parent, they might have already come knocking on his doors. When would they peacefully invite him to their home?

The next day Wei Xiao Bei drove the minivan with Huang Kun to see his mother.

In truth, Wei Xiao Bei never imagined that Huang Kun’s family was so rich.

Cui Hu Food and Beverages Mansions!

This place was the head office of Huang Kun’s mother’s company.

The entire building was 35 floors tall and was located in the most luxurious street in the entire Cui Hu City. Its position was even higher than the Da Hao Group of companies.

It was said that constructed buildings and the rent of the place were the highest in all of Cui Hu City.

While this building was constructed by Huang Kun’s mother, a portion of it was rented out, and another portion servd as the head office of the company.

The both of them had directly rode up to the 35th floor, and people who rode and exited the elevator would give their regards to Huang Kun.

It could be seen that Huang Kun’s reputation in that place was not low.

In truth, his relationship with his mother could be considered friendly, but there was some trouble at the start.

Perhaps as a test or other reasons, when they just got off the 3th floor, Wei Xiao Bei had received an ambush from three experts.

Although they were not ruthless, Wei Xiao Bei shown his respect and countered them without holding a lot back.

This fight had startled the white-collared workers into screaming.

In the end, it was Huang Kun’s mother, Zhou Rong, who had settled the situation.

Wei Xiao Bei clearly understood Zhou Rong’s mind. If her son was going to find a master, it should be the best and strongest!

Loving their child was native to humans.

Wei Xiao Bei wanted to give Huang Kun’s mother face, but it was difficult for him to do so. Moreover, Huang Kun had grown a bit fat, but his mother was a normal beautiful lady who was around her 30s. Her appearance was tender and moving, but her aura was not weak.

After interacting with Wei Xiao Bei, Zhou Rong was respectful to him and dispelled the complaints in Wei Xiao Bei’s heart.

After all, anyone being tested after a visit would not feel happy about it.

Zhou Rong originally planned to make Wei Xiao Bei formally accept Huang Kun and invite famous people who were her friends to attend the ritual, but Wei Xiao Bei declined.

Wei XIao Bei was keeping a low-profile at the moment, so he was not willing to show up in public.

Moreover, he had seen that Zhou Rong wanted to rope him in.

However, he was not willing to lose his freedom even if it was only a position as an honorable guest.

No matter what was said, Zhou Rong was still a powerful, successful woman in the market. Seeing Wei Xiao Bei was not willing, she did not insist on it. She only told Huang Kun to be respectful to his master. Additionally, what surprised Huang Kun was that his credit card limit had been increased. This made him the happiest.

It must be known that when his parents divorced, Huang Kun had always followed his mother, but his mother was afraid of raising a hedonistic son, thus she tried to be strict.

At the very least, Huang Kun’s allowance did not have any difference from his peers at school. In elementary school, he only received 2 yuan a week. After entering junior high school, he was given a credit card with a credit limit of only 50 yuan.

It was so pitiful. For Huang Kun who wanted to have fun, what use was 50 yuan? Even buying things for his online games needed careful planning.

After exiting the building, Huang Kun’s face was filled with a smile.

Wei Xiao Bei looked at Huang Kun’s face and shook his head. This made him truly admire Zhou Rong.

The Cui Hu Food and Beverages Group was a big company that was probably worth billions of yuan. However, the son of the president only had a 50 yuan monthly allowance. An upgrade to 1000 yuan was enough to make Huang Kun go crazy with happiness.

Before leaving, Zhou Rong had expressed her gratitude for taking care of Huang Kun and even gifted him a credit card.

Wei Xiao Bei understood that this was Zhou Rong’s gift for apprenticeship and at the same time making their relationship better. He did not reject these kinds of human favor. After all, many human relationships were done with exchanges.

A person who rejected human relationships could only walk the path of decline.

After leaving the building, Wei XIao Bei went to the bank auto teller to see the sum of the credit card.

1,000,000 yuan!

Zhou Rong is truly careful!

With Zhou Rong’s identity, giving away 10,000,000 yuan was not a problem, but giving 1,000,000 yuan to him was her sign of showing respect and to not make Wei Xiao Bei feel shame.

In truth, Wei Xiao Bei felt indifferent to receiving this much money if it was for taking care of Huang Kun.

Moreover, he already did not want to go fight in underground matche, so this 1,000,000 yuan had resolved a lot of future problems.

As for the next business, Wei Xiao Bei and Huang Kun went to Cui Hu City’s famous Long Hu Dou Restaurant!

Wei Xiao Bei knew the restaurant. It was a place that served Cantonese food, and anyone that could eat there were wealthy and respectable people.

The cheapest feast there was not lower than 3000 yuan.

However, what Wei Xiao Bei never imagined was that this restaurant was actually under Huang Kun’s mother’s company.

Without a doubt, when the two of them left, Zhou Rong had made arrangements for them.

When the beloved son, Huang Kun, arrived, the CEO had even personally came out to accompany him.

This made Wei Xiao Bei feel awkward. This was the first time he had encountered a situation of being accompanied by the someone in the leading position.

Luckily, Huang Kun was not one of those pure junior middle school student. He understood how to deal with matters like these. After asking people to bring his master to the kitchen, they entered into idle chat.

Huang Kun did not fully understood Wei Xiao Bei’s matter, but he knew that he wanted to learn a skill.

However, he also knew that his master was not willing to get a large number of people involved.

Regarding the people that Huang Kun of the company brought, the personnel office did not dare show neglect or get intimate. After all, even if they got intimate with him, they could not rely on him, and if they neglected, the problems were not few.

In that way, the personnel office employee brought Wei Xiao Bei into the kitchen and warned the person-in-charge before leaving.

The place was called a kitchen, but it was largely different from a home kitchen.
