Chapter 546: Chapter 545: An Acquaintance

After saying goodbye to Old Master Ding, Ding Yuejun set off with Yiyi and Gu Tingyu. In order to reach Hong Kong quickly, they directly bought plane tickets to Yangcheng, and then planned to head to Hong Kong from there.

"Yiyi, Tingyu, once we reach Hong Kong, don’t rush too much. Ensure your safety first, then look for A Quan."

At this moment, Ding Yuejun had calmed down and was much clearer in her thoughts, gradually developing plans for traveling to Hong Kong.

Upon hearing her mother’s words, Yiyi smiled and nodded, saying, "Don’t worry, Mom, we know what to do."

Then Fu Yun, who was standing by, said, "Holy Daughter, actually... I have acquaintances in Hong Kong. Once we arrive, I can ask them for information, and we can decide what to do next."

He already knew the purpose of their trip to Hong Kong, so he naturally wanted to help as much as possible.

Hearing Fu Yun’s words, Yiyi was a bit surprised. From what she knew, the Divine Medicine Sect had always lived in seclusion, with little contact with outsiders, so she was genuinely curious about how Fu Yun had friends in Hong Kong.

"I didn’t expect you to have acquaintances in Hong Kong. In that case, we’ll definitely need to rely on your friends."

Fu Yun chuckled and said, "Holy Daughter, he’s a sect member. Lin Jing is a disciple of Divine Medicine Sect’s Zixia Peak, and we’ve always gotten along well, so we frequently stay in touch."

"Oh, he’s also a disciple of the Divine Medicine Sect."

Yiyi suddenly understood and nodded, then asked, "Are the Divine Medicine Sect’s disciples free to travel as they please?"

"Not really. Few disciples go out. Lin Jing is one, and Ge Songhe in Shangjing is considered another. There are a few others scattered around, but you can count them on ten fingers as most prefer not to leave the sect."

Listening as Fu Yun talked about the Divine Medicine Sect, Yiyi asked more questions, and before they knew it, they’d arrived in Yangcheng.

In Yangcheng, Gu Tingyu already had acquaintances, so arrangements had been made in advance, "Mom, we’re staying in Yangcheng tonight and leaving for Hong Kong early tomorrow."

Ding Yuejun nodded in agreement, directly saying, "Alright."

Once they checked into the hotel, everyone returned to their rooms to rest.

Meanwhile, Gu Tingyu took Yiyi to meet his friend.

"Tingyu, I can’t believe you’re here in Yangcheng; it’s quite surprising. You should’ve notified me earlier so I could’ve made better arrangements for you."

The friend was a rugged-looking man with a jovial smile, quickly approaching them.

Gu Tingyu smiled and said, "Second Brother Xie, your arrangements have been great. Besides, we’re going to Hong Kong tomorrow, so you don’t need to go out of your way for us."

By this time, Xie Zhan had joined Gu Tingyu and Yiyi, and he said, "Tingyu, this must be your wife. You’ve hidden her well; we asked for her photo earlier, but you wouldn’t show us. You’ve finally brought her out, and she’s indeed beautiful; no wonder you kept her under wraps."

Hearing this, Gu Tingyu laughed and openly introduced Yiyi to him.

"Second Brother, this is Ding Yiyi, my fiancée." Then he looked at Yiyi and said, "Yiyi, this is Second Brother Xie Zhan. We used to be in the same squad, and he’s stationed in Yangcheng now."

Yiyi replied politely, "Hello, Second Brother Xie."

"Oh, hello, hello."

Xie Zhan greeted Yiyi quickly and then said, "Let’s go have some food; your sister-in-law should have dinner ready for us."

Upon reaching Xie Zhan’s house, his wife had already prepared a big table of dishes. Xie Zhan’s son, Xie Xiaotian, just turned three and was curiously looking at Gu Tingyu and Yiyi.

"Hello there."

Seeing the child, Yiyi smiled and gently touched his head, then took out a bag, saying, "Little friend, there are many tasty cookies in here. Do you like cookies?"

"Yes, I do."

The child replied with a sweet voice but didn’t take the bag. Instead, he looked at his father, Xie Zhan.

Xie Zhan, seeing his son like this, said with a grin, "Since your auntie gave it to you, go ahead and take it."

Only then did Xie Xiaotian take the bag.

Seeing this, Yiyi chuckled and then took out another bag to give to Xie Zhan’s wife.

"Sister-in-law, you’re too kind. It’s rare for us to come to Yangcheng, but you’ve brought us so many things."

Yiyi replied briskly, "Sister-in-law, we just didn’t want to intrude."

Xie Zhan quickly said, "Yiyi, don’t be so distant. Let’s eat first."

After the meal, Yiyi didn’t want to just sit there, so she went to the kitchen to help.

Meanwhile, Xie Zhan and Gu Tingyu discussed things on the living room sofa.

"I’ve arranged everything for your trip to Hong Kong tomorrow. You should be able to cross around 8:30 AM, but what exactly are you doing in Hong Kong this time?"

According to the crossing information provided by Gu Tingyu, there were quite a few people going to Hong Kong, so they couldn’t just be going for a leisurely trip.

Gu Tingyu didn’t elaborate, simply saying, "It’s a personal matter we need to handle in Hong Kong."

Xie Zhan didn’t press further, just laughed and patted Gu Tingyu’s shoulder, saying, "When you get married, make sure to send me a wedding invitation. No matter how busy I am, I will come to your wedding."

Gu Tingyu replied with a smile, "Of course, Second Brother Xie."

The two continued chatting, then Xie Zhan asked about Gu Tingyu’s work. "Why did you suddenly transfer to Shangjing? Although that job seems relaxed, there are quite a few tasks behind the scenes; you know they’re not simple tasks. Why choose that position?"

"Even though some tasks are challenging, it’s a self-challenge, and I quite enjoy it."

Xie Zhan gave Gu Tingyu a sideways glance, chuckling, "Don’t think you can fool me; I’ve found out it’s because Yiyi is in Shangjing that you chose that position."

"Knowing that, why did you ask so many questions, Second Brother Xie?"

Though he’d speculated this, hearing it confirmed, Xie Zhan couldn’t help being a bit surprised, "Didn’t expect that to be the reason, but the job in Shangjing is good too. Despite the tough tasks, there’s room for promotion. I’m looking forward to your good news."

After chatting for a bit longer, Yiyi had finished helping, and finally, Gu Tingyu and Yiyi bid farewell to Xie Zhan and his family.

The next day, Gu Tingyu took Yiyi and the others straight to Hong Kong.
