No matter how many guesses Yun Chuxiu had in his mind, at least on the way from Guanzhong to the Hua family in Jiangnan, Yuan Suiyun behaved very normally. He was originally from an aristocratic family, with extraordinary manners, but he was also approachable and not arrogant at all. He quickly became close to Hua Manlou and Lu Xiaofeng.

Yun Chuxiu: “…” It’s hard to describe the feeling that I’m the only one with eyes.

As for why they suddenly decided to go to the Hua family, it was because Yuan Suiyun said that after he met Yun Chuxiu, he sent a pigeon to tell his father about the matter. The old owner Yuan personally wrote a letter to inform Mr. Hua, so Mr. Hua hurriedly wrote to them, asking them to bring the miracle doctor back to the Hua family for treatment. Not only because the family had more medicinal materials and manpower, but also the family could thank the miracle doctor together afterwards.

Since his father had given the order, Hua Manlou naturally obeyed, and Yun Chuxiu did not object. He had his own thoughts, and was not surprised that Yuan Suiyun found an excuse to congratulate him and joined the team. However, when no one was around, he couldn't help but ask, "Don't you have to take care of your Bat Island?"

"Even ordinary people who do business have to close down when the owner has a happy event." Yuan Suiyun waved his fan leisurely, looking like he was out for a leisurely trip. Just looking at his appearance, it was hard to imagine that he was already one of the top masters in the martial arts world. "Besides, Bat Island is closed to visitors, so I wouldn't be the one who would be anxious."

But those who want to spend money to take shortcuts but can't find a way. Thinking of this, a scornful smile flashed across Yuan Suiyun's mouth.

Yun Chuxiu couldn't stand his attitude of taking advantage of people's desires while looking down on them: "You set up Bat Island because you think some people will be anxious about it. Although businesses can raise their prices by being a little bit arrogant, they should be careful not to be too arrogant and cause bad consequences."

Yuan Suiyun didn't respond: "I didn't expect you to have experience in business."

Yun Chuxiu rolled his eyes secretly: "I have never done business, but every year I receive a lot of gold-made shoulder poles and bowls and chopsticks, so I guess I have some experience!"

Yuan Suiyun: “……?”

As soon as they entered Jiangnan, they were warmly welcomed by the Hua family. The eldest son of the Hua family personally received his younger brother and his party at the post station. He greeted Yun Chuxiu warmly and changed a more spacious and comfortable carriage for him to escort him back to the Hua family. Hua Ruling, the old man, led the other five sons to meet the young and beautiful "miracle doctor" in the hall. By the way, he sincerely thanked Yuan Suiyun who was traveling with him. After drinking a round of tea, he carefully asked Yun Chuxiu what preparations needed to be made for Hua Manlou's treatment.

"Please be at ease. Actually, it's not as complicated as you think." Yun Chuxiu had made preparations along the way and answered calmly. "But the most important thing is that I need a pair of intact eyes to replace them for him."

"This..." Hua Manlou turned his ear and an expression of pity and resistance suddenly appeared on his face. Lu Xiaofeng wanted to say something but stopped, but soon, his expression became firm and he gently placed one hand on the back of Hua Manlou's hand.

He obviously wanted to support his friend's choice.

However, Yun Chuxiu had a faint smile on his face, but he didn't even look at them. Instead, he continued to say to Grandpa Hua, "Intact means that there is nothing wrong with it. As for whether it is taken from a living person or a dead person, there is actually not much difference, because after a person dies, the organs of the body do not die immediately."

He sighed softly: "There are always all kinds of accidents in this world. Some people were fine yesterday, but they are dead today, leaving behind orphans and widows who are helpless... I hope that after you choose the glasses, you can pay enough for them, which can be regarded as a help to them."

Yun Chuxiu added maliciously: "——After all, that's what the former young master did back then."

"Yes." Yuan Suiyun's expression did not change at all despite being rudely exposed. "I also want to thank Miss Yun for choosing such a suitable pair of eyes for me!"

They looked at each other, their eyes exchanged for a moment, but they quickly looked away as if nothing had happened. The eldest son of the Hua family stroked his beard, leaned over to look at the expression on Hua Manlou's face, and suddenly smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Dad, look, Miss Yun has come all the way here after a long journey, but you didn't even let her rest and rest, and you're busy asking so many questions. I've prepared the rooms, please check in. As for the treatment... we have the doctor, and Qi Tong is back, so is there any need to rush?"

"That's right, Miss Yun, go back to your room and rest first. If you need anything, just tell my Dalang." Hua Ruling thought so too, and explained it to Yun Chuxiu very gently, and then Young Master Hua personally sent him to the guest room. Yun Chuxiu knew that they needed to discuss this unexpected treatment method together as a family, so he smiled and nodded, and stood up obediently.

——It was not until he walked a long way away that he came to his senses. He and Yuan Suiyun and his group were the only ones who left the hall. Even after they left, Lu Xiaofeng sat in his seat without moving.

They really are best friends.

Yun Chuxiu felt relieved, and that night he went to the courtyard where Hua Manlou lived alone to look for him. As soon as he entered the door, he heard a triumphant laugh. It was Lu Xiaofeng who was sitting on the railing of the stone pavilion in the courtyard, and said to Hua Manlou who was sitting at the stone table in the pavilion: "How about it, am I right?" Hua Manlou turned his head slightly and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, you are worthy of being Lu Xiaofeng."

He picked up the wine glass and drank three glasses as punishment, then he said to Yun Chuxiu in a gentle voice: "Miss Yun, please come in and sit down."

Yun Chuxiu's eyes widened, and he walked into the stone pavilion slowly: "Okay! You two actually want to bet on me?"

Hearing this, Lu Hua and the others laughed at the same time. Lu Xiaofeng said, "Ms. Yun is such an open person, but she didn't tell us anything about the eye transplant along the way. It's really unreasonable. Now that we are at the Hua family, we must talk about what we should talk about. I told Hua Manlou during the day that you must come to find him tonight!"

Hua Manlou said gently: "I think Miss Yun is exhausted from the journey. She should have a good rest tonight. When we meet again tomorrow, everything will be clear."

Lu Xiaofeng jumped down from the railing, picked up the wine glass on the table and poured a glass of wine for Yun Chuxiu: "Hua Manlou, I can see that you don't understand girls. Some girls always do it immediately once they decide to do something. So men often just need to wait."

Yun Chuxiu picked up the wine glass and took a sip, but immediately retorted: "But some girls just want men to take the initiative. If a man is too proud of his status and is unwilling to take the initiative, then if you miss it, you miss it."

Lu Xiaofeng held the wine glass, stood behind him and asked: "So... Miss Yun, which one are you?"

"Since I've come here on my own initiative, do I need to ask again?" Yun Chuxiu put down his wine glass and said to Hua Manlou in a serious tone, "Mr. Hua, the reason I didn't tell you about the eye replacement in advance was because I thought you would refuse to use the eyes of a living person. But in fact, although I said during the day that using the eyes of a dead person would be the same, I have never tried to put the eyes of a dead person on the face of a living person before, and I don't know what the result will be if I do so."

"I know." Hua Manlou did not seem surprised by his words. "But I still want to thank you for telling my father and brother that during the day." In this way, he did not have to bother persuading them, nor did he have to be in a dilemma about it.

"Young Master Hua, you are such a great person. Ordinary people will inevitably become cynical and have many painful delusions after they become blind, but you are completely different. I can see that your father and brothers love and care about you very much, and restoring your sight is what they want to do most, so that's why they told them that." Yun Chuxiu smiled gently.

"Although I didn't tell the truth during the day, it wasn't all lies. The hair and nails of people who have been dead for many years will still grow like those of living people. After a person dies, their organs will not die immediately. I think there is not much difference between using the eyes of a dead person and that of a living person. And since the dead cannot be resurrected, they will naturally not become blind - or in other words, aren't the dead blind? If the eyes of the dead can be used to exchange for a usable compensation for the living, there will always be people who are willing to do so, and even grateful."

"... So Miss Yun is here to act as a lobbyist." Unconsciously, Lu Xiaofeng's tone became much softer. "I was just talking to him about this. Uncle and brothers are so caring and loving, and they should not be let down. Don't worry, we plan to tell eldest brother tomorrow and ask him to find someone willing."

Seeing his cheerful tone and the fact that he was in the mood to drink and make bets with Hua Manlou, Yun Chuxiu suddenly realized: "It seems that I have done too much. You have already discussed it!"

"No, you are kind-hearted and never do anything unnecessary." Hua Manlou's expression was calm and happy. "Although I can't see, I can hear and feel everything in the world, and I can even experience the fun of it better than many people. So, even if this method has some shortcomings afterwards, or can't cure me, you don't have to take it to heart."

His face was full of sincere gratitude: "To have met a miracle doctor like you, am I not luckier than most blind people in the world?"

Yun Chuxiu had obviously been preparing to comfort him, but who knew that he would be comforted by him instead. He was a little amused and helpless at once, but he had to admit that at this moment, his heart was filled with warm emotions that made him feel very comfortable and satisfied.

Hua Man Lou has such a strange magic. It seems that anyone who knows him can see the true meaning of life in him!

But then, after a moment of silence, he still had to say something very unpleasant: "Now, let's talk about the compensation."
