38: Chapter 0038 You Are Not Allowed to Laugh 38: Chapter 0038 You Are Not Allowed to Laugh “Hey, where are you going?”

As Mu Bingtong spoke, Chu Ge had already walked a great distance, only to see him wave his hand without turning back: “Wait for me.”

Indeed, in less than two minutes, he rushed back with two skewers of maltose.

“This is…”

“Maltose!” Chu Ge handed over a skewer with a grin: “When I was a child, my master would bring me one every time he came down from the mountain.

In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed.”

“Uh.” Mu Bingtong looked at the orange-yellow maltose in her hand, her beautiful eyes flashing with complex emotions.

Because of her background, she almost didn’t have a childhood, not even a warm family.

Now, a small piece of maltose suddenly gave her a feeling of reminiscence.

“Do you still like the taste?” Chu Ge asked.

“Um…

Uh…” Mu Bingtong seemed to want to say something, but her mouth didn’t open, and all that could be heard was a mumbling sound.

“Did it stick your teeth?” Seeing Mu Bingtong’s rare charming and cute appearance, Chu Ge couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

At that moment, Mu Bingtong barely opened her mouth, gave Chu Ge an annoyed glare, and said unclearly, “You…

don’t laugh!”

“Okay, I won’t—pfft—sorry, I’ll try not—hahaha, oh no, I can’t help it, hahaha—”

“You…

you still dare to laugh!

Chu Ge, you’re dead!”

….

In the following days, Xie Nanyong did not trouble Chu Ge anymore, and Chu Ge enjoyed his leisure time.

Each day, besides going to work, he treated Mr.

Ouyang’s body and continued his cultivation.

During this time, he used all the money given by the Ouyang Family to buy Spirit Jade and medicinal herbs.

His efforts were not in vain as Chu Ge finally broke through to the third Realm: Essence Qi Returning to Origin!

This Realm is also known as the Postnatal Realm.

Even in ancient times, the number of people who reached it were few.

It could be considered among the top experts.

Above this, was the rare Innate Realm, which could be called a One Generation Grandmaster.

In the Innate Realm, one can externalize their Inner Strength, whereas in the Postnatal Realm, although one cannot externalize Inner Strength, they can still attach it to objects.

The most straightforward example is using a tree branch to cut through steel!

As for using a finger to carve letters into stone, that is simply a trivial matter.

This evening, just as Chu Ge finished cultivating and was about to take a shower, his phone suddenly rang.

“Ouyang Yunbao”, Chu Ge hadn’t made a note, so the screen directly displayed Mr.

Ouyang’s name.

“Old Master, how are you feeling?”

A hearty laugh came from the other end of the phone, “Hahaha, Mr.

Chu is truly a Divine Doctor!

Not only has the poison been removed, but I can even feel the internal injuries that accumulated over the years disappearing, and there’s even a slight increase in my inner strength!”

Mr.

Ouyang had been at the Peak of Postnatal many years ago.

Over the years, due to poisons and internal injuries, his power had declined instead of increasing.

Now that Chu Ge had cured him and infused high-quality True Qi into his body, there was even a possibility in his lifetime to break through to the Innate Grandmaster Realm!

How could this not make him wildly joyous?

“Congratulations then!” Since the Ouyang Family is currently in a friendly state with him and he would need their help with many things in the future, he naturally went along with Mr.

Ouyang’s words: “I wish the Old Master breaks through to the Innate Realm soon and becomes a One Generation Grandmaster!”

“Ah, it’s too early for that, if I can break through to the Innate Realm in my lifetime, I would be more than satisfied!” Mr.

Ouyang laughed, his words were modest, but the confidence in his tone was subtly revealed.

Chu Ge was the one who treated his body and was very clear about his condition.

Whether it’s in a short year or up to five years, Mr.

Ouyang is bound to reach the Innate Realm!

“Old Master specifically called, it must be for more than just a brief chat, right?”

Chu Ge casually asked, and it was apparent that Mr.

Ouyang was in high spirits as laughter could be heard over the phone: “Hehe, that’s right.

I have prepared a banquet for tomorrow night.

Firstly, to celebrate my recovery, and secondly, naturally to thank Mr.

Chu for saving my life.

I wonder if Mr.

Chu has the time to grace the event?”

“Tomorrow night?” Chu Ge thought for a moment and nodded: “Yeah, I don’t have anything else planned for tomorrow night.

It’s a perfect time to freeload some food and drink.”

“Hahahaha, Brother Chu, feel free to eat and drink all you want!” Mr.

Ouyang burst out laughing on the other end: “Then it’s settled.

Tomorrow night, I’ll arrange for Little Butterfly to pick you up.”

After a few more pleasantries, they hung up the phone.

What Chu Ge didn’t expect was that the next day at noon, Mu Bingtong actually pulled out a red invitation from her bag.

The invitation featured two golden characters in the center: Ouyang.

It looked very prestigious.

Seeing Chu Ge’s gaze fixed on the invitation, Shen Yaoyao who was holding fries proudly snorted,

“Never seen one before, right?

This is an invitation from the Ouyang Family, one of the Four Great Families of Shanghai.

This invitation itself represents a status symbol.

Sister Mu, being the CEO of Jinxiu Group, just barely qualifies to attend their banquet.

Hehe, although you know so many big shots, to the Ouyang Family, they are just minor characters.”

Shen Yaoyao was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, waving her legs about with an air of triumph, and to those unaware, they might think the invitation was actually for her.

Chu Ge curled his lips: “He didn’t invite you, what are you proud for?”

“You are really no fun, you know?” Shen Yaoyao deflated and fell back onto the sofa, pouting at Chu Ge.

While the two were bickering, Mu Bingtong walked over and picked up the invitation from the table.

“Sister Mu, can’t you take me to experience it?” Shen Yaoyao clung to Mu Bingtong’s arm, shaking it, making a pitiful face.

Mu Bingtong looked at Shen Yaoyao, then at Chu Ge, and nodded: “This banquet does indeed allow bringing a few guests.

If you two want to go tonight, then let’s go together.”

“Yay!” The young girl cheered and jumped off the sofa, running upstairs without even putting on her shoes: “Long live Sister Mu!

I’m going to find the most beautiful evening gown right now!”

Watching Shen Yaoyao’s retreating figure, Mu Bingtong sighed, her eyebrows deeply furrowed as she turned her attention back to the invitation.

“Something on your mind?” Chu Ge asked quietly, noticing Mu Bingtong’s demeanor.

Mu Bingtong looked up at him and managed a weak smile: “It’s nothing.

You go find an outfit as well.

After all, it’s an Ouyang family banquet and it’s quite important.”

“Tell me about it, maybe I can help.”

Mu Bingtong glanced at him and eventually shook her head: “It’s business matters, you can’t intervene.

I’ll figure something out myself.

Go get ready, if it’s really necessary, we could buy you a high-end suit on the way.”
