n252 The Grandmaster’s dream (1.2)

n—

nAt the same time, in a high-end villa in country M.

nBai jingxu, who was in deep sleep, was suddenly woken up by a strange number.

nThe phone number was not a number but a string of garbled numbers, which made Bai jingxu feel strange.

nWhat was even stranger was the voice that came from the other end of the phone.

nIt was a woman’s voice. She said, ” Tugen ‘er, guess who I am? ”

nBai jingxu’s still dazed brain buzzed, and his entire body turned cold from head to toe.

nHe had not heard the name earth root for almost twenty years.

nBut what made his hair stand on end the most was Yingying.

nWhy did this woman’s voice sound so familiar?

nIt was very similar to his grandfather who had passed away 40 years ago.

nBai jingxu shuddered and felt goosebumps all over his body in the bedroom that was warm as spring.

nHe quickly picked up the cross on the bedside table used to ward off evil spirits and asked in a trembling voice, ” “Yingluo, Who are you?”

nThe voice on the other end of the phone was neither fast nor slow. little brat, don’t think that I don’t know anything just because I’m dead. When you first joined the sect, you swore on three fingers that you would promote Chinese medicine and save the people of China in the future. In the end, you married into the family with the surname Bai and went abroad to run your big hospital.

nBai jingxu sucked in a breath of cold air. The tone aside, just the voice alone was enough to explain the oath he had made when he was young. Other than himself, only his grandfather knew about it.

nHis legs gave way and he almost fell from the bed. “G-Grand Master hehe”

nBack then, when he broke his oath, he knew that with his ancestor’s bad temper, he would definitely be angry.

nHowever, at that time, the ancestor had already passed away, so he ignored his father’s opposition and insisted on doing things his own way.

nHowever, he never expected that

nJust as he was thinking, the voice on the other end of the phone rang again, ” “But I have to praise you.”

nBai jingxu immediately sat up straight, his back ramrod straight, naively waiting for the patriarch’s praise.

nHowever, the next second, the tone of the voice on the other end of the phone changed. The ancestor’s voice was surly and unbridled.”You’ve really given birth to a good daughter!”

nBai jingxu,”hehe.”

nA few minutes later, he hung up.

nOnly then did Bai jingxu realize that he was drenched in cold sweat. The back of his gray silk pajamas was completely soaked.

nHe threw the phone far away like a hot potato, and then ran into the bathroom to wash his face.

nAfter an unknown period of time, he finally calmed down, and a trace of suspicion gradually appeared on his face.

nWere there really ghosts in this world?

nHe went back to the bed and picked up the phone again. He wanted to find the call record and get someone to crack it. Maybe he could find out who was behind this.

nBut after that, he couldn’t find the call he had just received even after going through his call history for nearly a week.

nThe call log had magically disappeared.

nOr rather, it never even existed.

nCould it be that he was just dreaming?

nThis is even weirder …

nBai jingxu grabbed his hair in frustration.

nHe had been too sleepy when he answered the phone. Now that he was awake, the more he tried to recall the details, the more uncertain he felt.

nHe glanced at his wife, Bai Yuzhu, who was lying beside him.

nShe was in a deep sleep with earplugs on and a silk eye mask over her face. There was no way to prove whether she had really received the call just now.

nBai jingxu thought of something and left the bedroom. He went to the study, turned on his computer, and searched for a few keywords.

nAfter searching, he found out that his daughter, who he had always been proud of and had always been at ease with, had caused so much trouble in the short few weeks that she had returned to the country.

nMoreover, the spearhead of every incident was pointed at one person.

nThe Grandmaster’s grandniece.

nBai jingxu’s lips turned white and he fell back into his chair with a thud.

nIt seemed that the dream just now was not an ordinary dream, but the ancestor’s spirit had appeared and told him about it in his dream.

nIt was all his good daughter’s fault!

nOf all the people he could offend, he had to offend the Grandmaster’s grandniece.

nFeeling insecure, he lit a cigarette and took a deep puff.

nHe was thinking about how he could obtain the Grandmaster’s forgiveness.

nHe probably knew in his heart, but if he did this, the tigress at home, his wife, would definitely kick up a fuss with him.

nAlthough his Foundation was stable now, it was different from when he had just married into the Bai family.

nBut,

nHe took a deep puff of the cigarette and leaned back with his arms crossed. The smoke circulated through his mouth and chest before he slowly exhaled.

nWhile he was hesitating, a bolt of lightning suddenly streaked across the sky outside the window. The dark night was as bright as day, followed by deafening Thunder.

nHis heart skipped a beat and he turned to look out the window.

nUnder the light of the lightning, he could clearly see that the big tree in the villa’s garden had been struck down by lightning.

nThe oath he had made back then echoed in his mind: Promote Chinese medicine and save the people of China. If you break the oath, may the heavens strike you with lightning.

nAt this moment, he received a call from his hospital secretary.

nIt was definitely not a good thing to call at this hour.

nSure enough, as soon as she picked up, the Secretary’s anxious voice came from the other end. “Director, I’m sorry to disturb you so late. I just received news from China that the consortium that has been providing us with medical equipment suddenly said that they want to stop working with us!”

nBai jingxu tilted his head, as if he did not know how to react. “No, isn’t the Bo Corporation providing us with medical equipment?”

nDidn’t old master Bo like his daughter a few years ago?

nWhy did they suddenly stop working together?

nTruly, misfortunes never come alone!

nCould it be that the ancestor had asked old master Bo to appear in his dreams?

n—

nA few minutes ago, No. 1 middle school.

nSu hung up the phone, turned on the virtual keyboard, hacked into Bai jingxu’s phone system, and deleted his call records. He then put away the voice changer and checked the weather conditions in the area where Bai jingxu was in M Nation before turning off the screen.

nHe nodded in satisfaction.

nIt said,”super heavy thunderstorm, accompanied by Level Seven wind.”

nSu also took off her headphones. At the same time, there was a sound outside the toilet.

nA few girls entered the bathroom and chatted while looking at themselves in the mirror.

n“Yiyi, did anything happen to you after you went back yesterday?”

n“I saw Mr. Bo’s expression at that time. It seemed very scary.”

nZhu Yiyi was from Class 2. Normally, she wouldn’t appear on the first floor. Now that she was here to look for her best friend, she came with her.

nShe was wearing a fisherman’s hat and looked good. She could even be called glowing.

nWhen her best friend mentioned yesterday’s incident, not only was she not troubled, but she even raised her eyebrows smugly and said mysteriously,””You guys don’t understand this ~”

nHer close friends were puzzled,”what do you mean?” I heard that Mr. Bo is very capable, don’t let your guard down. I went back yesterday to ask my dad. The company your dad works for is also under the Bo group. He might make things difficult for your dad.”

nyou’re quite smart. Zhu Yiyi laughed out loud.”Mr. Bo did send someone to look for my dad, but he didn’t make things difficult for him. He sent Wanwan.”

n“But what?”

n“My dad called me this afternoon. He said he got promoted!” Zhu Yiyi smiled.
