The Beautiful CEO’s Close Bodyguard
Chapter 58 - 58 0058 Jade Medicinal Materials

58: Chapter 0058: Jade Medicinal Materials 58: Chapter 0058: Jade Medicinal Materials That night, Chu Ge took out all the jade medicinal materials he had left from his cultivation and filled them into the Ten Thousand Spirit Returning Array.

Then, he sat cross-legged at the center of the array, assuming a position of Five Hearts Toward Heaven.

Faint white mist rose from those jade medicinal materials, jade cracked, herbs withered, but the air was filled with an indescribable fragrance.

A mere whiff was enough to instantly relieve all fatigue for an ordinary person, and even heal wounds on the body within a few breaths.

This was Spiritual Energy!

About half a minute later, Chu Ge frowned and slowly opened his eyes.

“As expected, this ordinary Spiritual Energy has completely lost its effect on me!” he muttered softly and slowly stood up.

The leap from Postnatal to Innate is a qualitative jump, like a carp leaping through the Dragon Gate; it’s impossible to climb up by sheer quantity of Spiritual Energy, otherwise Innate Grandmasters wouldn’t be so rare.

“However…” Chu Ge suddenly raised an eyebrow, pinched out a handprint with his right hand, and saw the Spiritual Energy in the air suddenly converging towards his palm.

In a short while, it was all gathered.

In Chu Ge’s palm appeared a milky drop of water, like the finest white jade turned liquid, emitting a faint fluorescence in the darkness.

He pondered for a while, then casually picked up a piece of jade from the ground, carved it into a Jade Bottle, and placed the drop inside: “If an ordinary person consumes this Spirit Liquid, they can ward off all illnesses, become strong and healthy, and it even has the effect of beautifying and moisturizing the skin…

maybe this thing will be useful in the future.”

The night passed without words.

The next day, Chu Ge got up early; as usual, he went out for a morning run, then brought back a big bag of breakfast.

Actually, with his physical condition, he didn’t need to run in the morning at all.

He went out solely for that wisp of Innate Spiritual Energy generated at sunrise; although the quantity was extremely tiny, it was purer than any other Spiritual Energy.

Small accumulations lead to great transformations for the body.

“Ah—” Mu Bingtong yawned as she came to the dining table, with dark circles under her eyes so thick that probably not even makeup could cover them.

The original materials were recovered, but due to the lesson learned from Hong Xiaoli’s sudden betrayal, Mu Bingtong was now on full alert.

She personally oversaw every step of the process, and even when Chu Ge woke up from his night cultivation, he could still see the faint light from upstairs and hear the click-clack of keyboard strokes.

After all, Mu Bingtong was just an ordinary person; after such a period of high-intensity work, she appeared much more haggard.

“Sister Bingtong, why don’t you take a few days off?” Shen Yaoyao couldn’t bear to watch and said with concern.

Mu Bingtong shook her head: “It’s just a few more days.

Don’t worry, I’m fine.

I’ll definitely rest well after these busy days are over!”

While the two were talking, Chu Ge sneakily took out the Jade Bottle and secretly sprinkled some of the Spiritual Liquid into Mu Bingtong’s soy milk: “Finish your soy milk.”

He passed the soy milk over, along with a few steamed buns.

Mu Bingtong took them without suspicion, and then took a light sip.

“Huh?” She suddenly let out a light gasp, finding today’s soy milk exceptionally delicious.

Unaware, she finished the whole bowl, and at the same time, she felt a warm flow rising from her lower abdomen.

The weariness on her body vanished in an instant with the wash of this warm flow, and she felt completely invigorated.

“You…” Mu Bingtong looked at Chu Ge with surprise and doubt: “What did you add to the soy milk?”

“Nothing at all?” Chu Ge put on an innocent expression: “What, would I poison it?”

Mu Bingtong looked at Chu Ge somewhat skeptically, but she also dismissed her previous thought.

How could there be something that instantly revitalizes a person?

Not even stimulants could take effect in just a few seconds.

With this thought, Mu Bingtong pushed aside her doubts and poured another bowl of soy milk, but this time, she could not taste the incredibly delicious flavor from before.

Since today was the day Ouyang Kangshi invited him to the auction, Chu Ge asked Mu Bingtong for a day off.

The person who came to pick him up this time was a young man who appeared to be just in his early twenties, named Ouyang Zhili.

He was a notorious and overbearing young master in Shanghai’s circle of rich heirs, but in front of Chu Ge, he dared not overstep and behaved with utmost respect and courtesy.

Because he was there on the day Chu Ge demonstrated Spring Comes to Dead Wood!

The car stopped at the entrance of a large estate.

The Ouyang Family had been modest before—what they had called a villa was practically on par with a stadium.

The parking spaces at the entrance of the estate were almost full.

Looking around, various international brand sports cars were common sights, including several limited edition luxury cars worth over fifty million.

Even Chu Ge couldn’t help but remark on the level of opulence.

Ouyang Zhili got out of the car first and opened the door for Chu Ge.

Ouyang Die was already waiting at the entrance, and standing behind her was an elderly man dressed in a black Tang costume.

Despite his full head of silver hair, he looked energetic, and his eyes were clear and bright without a hint of cloudiness.

As soon as Chu Ge got out, Ouyang Die stepped forward: “Mr.

Luo, this is Chu Ge, the very person Grandpa has mentioned to you, Mr.

Chu.”

Luo Tianmu had been looking forward with anticipation, but upon seeing Chu Ge’s young face, his expression changed slightly.

Previously, Mr.

Ouyang had praised Chu Ge to the skies, and even Ouyang Kangshi agreed.

Therefore, Luo Tianmu had already harbored the intention to outshine in his mind, but now, seeing the person praised by Mr.

Ouyang, who turned out to be just a green youth, Luo Tianmu immediately felt a sense of dissonance.

Ouyang Die, naturally noticing the displeasure on Luo Tianmu’s face, frowned slightly, then turned to Chu Ge with a smile: “Mr.

Chu, everyone has almost arrived.

Would you like to go in now or rest for a bit first?”

“Let’s go in directly,” Chu Ge nodded to Ouyang Die, unconcerned about the others, his impression of Ouyang Die and Mr.

Ouyang still positive.

Luo Tianmu snorted coldly and went into the estate with his hands behind his back.

“Is he also from the Ouyang Family?” Chu Ge frowned slightly and asked indifferently.

Ouyang Die’s expression changed, and she quickly waved her hands and said: “No, don’t get the wrong idea.

He was specially invited by Grandpa for a hefty fee.

He’s a highly respected elder in the world of treasure appraisal, said to have an eye that no treasure can escape.

Hence, he is also known as Mr.

Divine Eye.”

The estate was bustling at the moment, but Ouyang Die led Chu Ge through the noisy crowd and straight into a much smaller, enclosed room.

The room was filled with tables reminiscent of pool tables, on which various treasures and curios were displayed, and some even had a large number of stones.

Each table was attended by two suit-clad attendants, serving as both hosts and guards against theft.

After leading Chu Ge into the room, Ouyang Die excused herself and left, while Chu Ge was happy to be alone and wandered around.

Along the way, Chu Ge saw many medicinal jade materials, but none were of much use to him, leading to a hint of disappointment—he feared he wouldn’t find what he needed for a while.

“Little Brother Chu!” A voice suddenly came from the side.

Chu Ge, who was inspecting a piece of jade, turned his head and saw that it was Mr.

Ouyang.

The Old Master was dressed in a Tang costume, with his hands clasped behind his back, and at first glance, his vigor seemed to match that of a younger man.

“Little Brother Chu, are you interested in this piece of jade?” The Old Master pointed at a piece of jade on the table and smiled.

It was an egg-sized piece of jade, transparent and lustrous, emitting a faint green glow, obviously of great value.
