Seeing the flicker in Zhou Xuan's eyes, she suddenly understood. Her face flushed red, and she scolded, "You bad guy!" before turning and gracefully entering the room. Then, the door slammed shut behind her!
Zhou Xuan smiled bitterly for a while, touched his chin, and thought to himself, "Am I a bad person? Am I vulgar?" Wei Xiaoqing followed Wei Haihong back, naturally leaving in a huff. Wei Haihong then told Zhou Xuan to let his parents get some rest, and that he would come to pick them up at six o'clock in the evening.
Zhou Xuan nodded. Suddenly, he remembered something else and asked, "Brother Hong, do you know where gold is traded?"
I recommend my friend Jiutian Xuanhuo's masterpiece, "Chaos: Devouring Immortals and Gods," a high-quality Xianxia novel. Fans of Xianxia should definitely give it a read.

Pin Mei Hong chuckled and said, "I know, I know quite a few jewelers, including some from Hong Kong and overseas. So, brother, are you looking to buy gold?"
"I'm not buying!" Zhou Xuan shook his head and said, "I'm selling. I made a deal in the countryside this time, haha, I guess you could say I got a great deal. I spent a small amount of money, about a hundred catties of gold. I'm not familiar with gold trading or the market, so I'll have to ask Brother Hong to act as an intermediary and introduce me to it!"
“No problem, I’ll find him. Is it today or some other time?” Wei Haihong agreed immediately. He no longer cared about Zhou Xuan’s luck; luck was worthless with this brother.
Zhou Xuan smiled and shook his head, saying, "No need to rush. A-Chang and the others are driving back; the things are in the car. They'll probably arrive around noon tomorrow. Let's talk about it when they get back. We still need to find the tools for cutting the stone."
Wei Haihong smiled and waved his hand, "Then let's not talk about it anymore. Let your family rest and get some rest so we can go out for dinner tonight!"
After saying goodbye to Brother Hong, Zhou Xuan went inside and saw his parents sitting in the living room. He smiled and asked, "Dad, Mom, why did you come downstairs? Come to your room and take a nap. Brother Hong is treating you to dinner tonight."
Zhou Cangsong looked around the living room, sighed, and then asked, "Son, this house looks really nice. How much did it cost? Did you buy it or is it your brother Hong's house?"
Zhou Xuan knew his parents disliked owing favors, as they were difficult to repay, so he said firmly, "Dad, don't worry, I bought this house myself. I won't hide it from you now; we're all family. I've earned tens of millions outside. I bought this house myself; I didn't borrow a single penny. Brother Hong has been very good to me. But I don't want his house. Only the car in the garage next door was a gift from him."
As Zhou Xuan spoke, he took two bank cards from his wallet and handed them to his mother, saying, "Mom, you and Dad take these two cards. There are two million in each card. Just withdraw the money and buy whatever you need. Don't be stingy with the money. Your son has money now. I can also make money. The password is Dad's birthday. I'll transfer more money in when we run out."
Zhou Cangsong and his wife were both stunned for a while, and Jin Xiumei's hand holding the bank card was trembling slightly.
Their son earned tens of millions and casually gave them four million in pocket money. This really made them feel confused. They thought about how they worked hard at home with their younger son and only earned about 30,000 to 40,000 yuan a year. Compared to their older son, was this even considered money?
Could it be that his father chose a good burial site back then? His son's wealth is just too overwhelming!
Of course, Zhou Xuan hadn't dared to reveal the price of the car that Brother Hong had casually given him. Otherwise, Zhou Cangsong would definitely make him return the car; he certainly wouldn't let him use such an expensive car, even if he could afford it himself. But he absolutely couldn't accept something given to him as a gift.
Zhou Xuan smiled and comforted his parents, telling them to rest in their room. Upstairs, Liu Yufang was in the room next to Zhou Ying's. Before they bought a house, Zhou Xuan had told her to stay there temporarily, and move in after they did; there was no rush. Liu Yufang knew much more than Zhou Cangsong and his wife, and Zhou Ying. This house must be worth at least tens of millions; houses in Xicheng are more expensive than elsewhere, and this was Hongcheng Garden. He'd seen it advertised on TV many times; Hongcheng Garden was one of the most expensive houses in the city, tens of thousands of yuan per square meter. It was truly unexpected that the honest boy he used to study with would be so capable now. Look at this house, look at the cars in the garage, and look at Zhou Xuan's beautiful girlfriend!
Liu Yufang sighed. She had thought she had made a wise decision by choosing Zhang Laoda, but looking at her own four million in savings, it was far less than Zhang Laoda's. Fortunately, Zhou Xuan and ** were best friends. Back in their hometown, she had heard from ** that Zhou Xuan was planning to invest ten or twenty million in ** to open an antique shop, with each person getting a 50/50 share. It seemed Zhou Xuan was truly a loyal friend; not many people would do something like that!
I also heard from ** that the four million they earned was also thanks to Zhou Xuan's help. ** wanted to share it with him, but Zhou Xuan didn't want a single penny. Moreover, Brother Hong even gave them a Hummer, which is worth more than a million!
It seems Zhou Xuan not only made a fortune, but also brought great luck to his family!
At 6 p.m., Wei Haihong and his men arrived in the same extended Hummer RV as before.
Zhou Xuan's parents and sister didn't get any rest either. They hadn't slept at all, nor could they sleep. Liu Yufang was even worse off, and their son hadn't slept either. None of them had slept, but their spirits weren't low; the new environment was too good, and it had excited them.
Wei Haihong booked a table at the Beijing Hotel for dinner that evening. The meal cost more than 20,000 yuan. Based on his previous experience, Wei Haihong had prepaid the money to avoid Zhou Xuan having to pay the bill again under the pretense of needing to urinate.
Wei Haihong and Zhou Cangsong had a little wine. They weren't any other friends, nor were they business associates, so Wei Haihong certainly wouldn't challenge Zhou Cangsong to a drinking contest; he'd just let him drink in moderation.
Zhou Xuan didn't mention paying the bill at all, because he was worried that his parents would be surprised if they knew the price when he called the waiter over, so he simply pretended not to know.
Zhou Xuan was surprised to learn that Wei Xiaoqing hadn't come with Wei Haihong, and he didn't want to ask her about it. It wouldn't be appropriate for him to keep bringing up a girl like her.
The meal wasn't finished until nine o'clock. After dropping the whole family off at Hongcheng Garden Villa, Zhou Xuan went back to Wei Haihong's house.
It had been four or five days, and Zhou Xuan wanted to check on the old man's illness.
In the living room, Zhou Xuan saw Wei Xiaoqing, who was fuming. Xue Hua and the old man were also there. The old man's face was rosy, and he looked better than before he left.
"Grandpa, are you feeling better? Have you been feeling unwell these past few days?" Zhou Xuan asked with a smile.
The old man smacked his lips slightly and said, "Much better. When you left, you could only drink a bowl of thin porridge, but now you can eat a bowl of rice. Xiao Zhou, have you been taken care of by your family?"
"I received them all safely!" Zhou Xuan replied, then greeted Xue Hua, "Sister-in-law!"
Xue Hua nodded and called Wang Sao over to serve Zhou Xuan tea.
Zhou Xuan sat down and drank a few sips of tea, then said to the old man, "Old man, please come to the room, let me take a look!"
The old man wasn't in a hurry. He said, "Xiao Zhou, you just got back and haven't had a good rest. I'm much better now, so there's no rush. Come back tomorrow."
Zhou Xuan chuckled, reached out to help the old man up, and said with a smile, "Grandpa, look at me, I'm full of energy and in great spirits. There's no need for tomorrow, I'll take a look at you first."
The old man let him be. After Zhou Xuan went upstairs and lay down on the bed, he used his ice energy to probe inside.
The old man's stomach was actually glowing blood red, which meant that the blood transfusion was normal. The number of cancer cells was even less than when he passed away. Could it be that after I used my ice energy, even after a person passes away, it can still consume some cancer cells?
As long as there's no increase, there's no need to worry about a decrease. Zhou Xuan once again used his ice energy to transform the cancer cells into an appropriate number, then forced them to his fingertips, pricked the skin with a needle to let golden blood flow out, and only stopped the ice energy when the blood turned red.
This gold-containing "second-tier" item can only be forced out by the warehouse department. Otherwise, it will be in the gold.
After finishing up for the old man, it was almost 10:30. Wei Haihong told him to sleep there and come back to Hongcheng Garden the next morning, but Zhou Xuan smiled and declined. His parents, sister, Fu Ying, Liu Yu, and Fang were all staying there for the first time, and he felt he should go back.
Wei Haihong didn't insist on keeping her. As they were leaving, Zhou Xuan called out to Wei Xiaoqing, "Xiaoqing, come over there to play sometime!"
"No way!" Wei Xiaoqing refused outright. She snorted. "I have nothing to do with your pretty girlfriend, and I don't want to see her!"
Zhou Xuan gave Wei Haihong an awkward smile. Wei Haihong chuckled and scolded, "Why is this girl getting more and more rude these days?"
The Red Army had already brought out the vehicle and was ready. Zhou Xuan stopped Wei Haihong, saying, "Brother Hong, you don't need to go. It's too tiring to send people back and forth. Besides, don't you consider me a brother? Why are there so many rules between brothers?"
Wei Haihong chuckled and waved his hand, letting him go.
After the Red Army escorted Zhou Xuan to his doorstep, Zhou Xuan invited him to sit down and have some tea, but the Red Army shook his head, smiled, and thanked him.
In the living room were her parents, younger sister, Fu Ying, and Liu Yufang, who were watching TV and chatting. Zhou Xuan asked, "Aren't you all tired? Today was filled with planes and meals..."
