Chapter 224 Wang Zuxian's Visit

It was around three o'clock the next afternoon.

A black business car drove into Huizhou and headed towards the old street.

Wang Zuxian sat in the car, looking at the scenery outside the window, lost in thought. The architectural style of Huizhou is different from that of other places.

The white walls, black tiles and horse-head walls that can be seen everywhere have a unique charm against the backdrop of green mountains and clear waters.

What made her a little regretful was that at this time of year, the grass and trees had not yet turned green, and it looked a bit bleak.

"Sister Xian! When we get there, do you need me to accompany you into the house?"

The assistant beside him asked in a low voice.

Wang Zuxian glanced at her, smiled slightly, and said softly: "Accompany me in first, and come out if there is no problem."

The assistant nodded, "Okay, Sister Xian."

……

Riverside Road.

In the yard where Cao Sheng used to live, Sister Zhang, the nanny who officially started work today, was wiping the table and cleaning the main room, while Cao Sheng was sitting in the yard drinking tea and reading a book.

Old duck soup was stewing in the kitchen and the aroma was wafting through the yard.

Cao Sheng hasn't been here for some time.

If the woman on the phone yesterday hadn't claimed to be Wang Zuxian, he probably wouldn't have thought of returning to this courtyard.

He was reading "Journey to the West" at the time, hoping to learn more about the gods, monsters, etc. in myths and legends through this book.

He is also preparing for the Honghuang novel.

There is not much space left in "God's Tomb".

The total length of "The Exquisite Tower of Heaven and Earth" is not long.

In a few months, "God's Tomb" should be finished, and "The Exquisite Tower of Heaven and Earth" should also be almost finished by the end of the year.

By then he will start writing about the ancient times.

Until then, he felt that no amount of preparation could be too much.

Because Honghuang novels are different from other novels.

It is nominally a novel, but it actually does the work of sorting out the Chinese mythology system. Not only does it sort out, but it also ranks the various gods, immortals and Buddhas in the mythology.

For example: Which deity has the highest status below the saints? Which has the strongest fighting power? And so on.

This is not what a novelist should do.

But the divine machine of the original time and space did it.

The book "Buddha is the Tao" made both the Buddhist and Taoist circles unable to sit still and they protested one after another.

And now, Cao Sheng, relying on the advantage of being a reborn person, also wants to do the job once.

He is not afraid of anyone's protest.

He was just afraid that his writing would be filled with mistakes and omissions, and that people would be able to easily pick out a lot of flaws in his work.

Moreover, he felt that ranking the gods should be done carefully and not randomly.

I don't know how much time had passed when someone knocked on the gate.

Sister Zhang, who was cleaning the kitchen, hurried to the gate and opened it.

Cao Sheng also looked over there.

There were two women standing outside the door.

The woman standing in the front was quite tall, with satin-like black hair, wearing a pair of sunglasses, and holding a fruit basket in her hands. The woman behind was not tall, and her temperament was far inferior.

Cao Sheng stood up subconsciously because he had recognized that the tall woman in front of him seemed to be Wang Zuxian.

Wang Zuxian raised her hand to take off the sunglasses on her face, smiled at Sister Zhang who opened the door, and nodded slightly, "Hello! Can I come in?" Sister Zhang stepped aside in a daze and watched Wang Zuxian walk into the yard.

When she was tasting food at Cao Sheng's villa yesterday, she heard Cao Sheng say on the phone that he wanted Wang Zuxian to call him personally.

At the time she suspected he was bragging.

But today she saw Wang Zuxian here. At this moment, her mind seemed to go blank and she couldn't believe her eyes.

A question swirled in her mind: What kind of employer did I find this time? Who is this Mr. Cao? How did he know Wang Zuxian? Am I dreaming?
She stared blankly at Cao Sheng coming over. Wang Zuxian stretched out her fair right hand and said with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Cao! Nice to meet you! I'm sorry for disturbing you by visiting me."

Cao Sheng held her hand and continued with a smile, "I didn't expect it was you! Why bother you? It's my honor. I love your movies. Please come in and have a seat!"

At this moment, he also felt a bit like he was dreaming.

Wang Zuxian!

How many boys born in the 80s think of her as their goddess?
How many men think she is the most beautiful Hong Kong and Taiwan actress?
Wang Zuxian smiled and handed over the fruit basket in her hand, "It's our first meeting, so please don't be disgusted by it, it's not a sign of respect!"

Cao Sheng laughed and took the fruit basket.

When Wang Zuxian was invited to sit in the room again, Wang Zuxian turned around and said to the female assistant: "You go and do your own thing! I'm fine here alone."

The female assistant looked at Cao Sheng and nodded, "Okay! Sister Xian, if you have anything, call me."

The female assistant left.

Cao Sheng thought about it and asked the nanny Zhang to leave.

"Sister Zhang! The sanitation here is almost done, you can go to the villa!"

So, Sister Zhang left too.

When Wang Zuxian entered the room, she was a little curious, "Mr. Cao just mentioned the villa? You don't usually live here?"

Cao Sheng smiled and went to make her some tea while saying, "This is where I used to live. I lived alone in the villa before, so it was a bit messy. The nanny you just met was hired by me yesterday and she just started working today. This place is smaller, so it's easier to keep clean, but it's a bit small."

Wang Zuxian said "oh".

He looked around the room curiously.

He laughed and said, "Such a big house, with a yard, if it were in Hong Kong, it would be a thousand-foot mansion! It's not small!"

Cao Sheng laughed and came over with a cup of freshly brewed tea. "House prices in the mainland are low, but they can't be compared with Hong Kong. Have some tea!"

Wang Zuxian took the teacup and sat down on the sofa.

He sniffed and asked curiously, "Are you making duck soup? It smells so good!"

Cao Sheng sat down next to him, "Well, I'll make a few more dishes later, and we'll eat together!"

Wang Zuxian: “???”

"Can you cook?"

Cao Sheng: "It's just some home cooking! What? Is it strange that I can cook?"

Wang Zuxian nodded, "I thought that a great talent like you would be interested in studying since childhood, and when you grow up, you would also be interested in various books. A talented musician I knew before was like this, and he couldn't cook."

Cao Sheng guessed who the musical genius she was talking about was.

I'm a little curious whether she and that musical genius are still dating?

But he had just met her and was not familiar with her, so it was inconvenient for him to ask her questions that were too private.

I followed her words and said, "Maybe this is the difference between being a musician and being a writer! We who write novels need to experience life. The richer our life experience, the more down-to-earth our writing will be. Musicians may need wild and imaginative inspiration. Music that is too down-to-earth may seem a bit earthy."

His words made Wang Zuxian laugh.

She retorted with interest, "But when I read your novels, there didn't seem to be much cooking involved. Apart from the down-to-earth novel "Living with a Flight Attendant", I didn't feel your later books were down-to-earth. Which of "I Want to Become an Immortal", "God's Tomb", and "The Mysterious and Yellow Pagoda of Heaven and Earth" was down-to-earth?"

Cao Sheng smiled and made a joke, "If you can't connect with the earth, then go to the underworld! Didn't you find that these three books all involve reincarnation in the underworld?"
