Chapter 779: Money, and Health

~5 min read 803 words

Wan Hu handed a box of matches to Shen Ci and guided her in a low voice: "Please, Miss, light the candle for Master."

Only then did Shen Ci understand what she was called up to do, and hurriedly took it with both hands respectfully.

After taking out a long match and striking it lightly on the box, the flame shrank twice and then suddenly shot up.

Shen Ci protected the flame with her hand without haste, and then lit the candle inserted above the cake.

Master Yu watched Shen Ci finish all this with a smile, held the jade beads with both hands, clasped his fists lightly, closed his eyes for a moment with a pious face, and finally blew lightly to extinguish the candle.

Applause followed at the scene, and congratulations followed one after another.

And at this time, Wan Hu held a small box in front of Master Yu. Master Yu picked it up, turned around, and handed it to Shen Ci: "Child, this is for you."

Shen Ci was very surprised and hurriedly took it: "Thank you, Master."

She didn't know what was in this box, and she didn't ask, because it was given by Master Yu, so no matter what it was, it was good.

In the audience, Li's wife couldn't help but sourly say: "What good luck, this could also be her turn."

Li Wanchang glanced at his wife, and she reluctantly closed her mouth tightly.

"A-Ci, what is it? Open it and see."

As soon as Shen Ci came down, Su Zheyuan couldn't wait to lean over, and Jiang Yuanliang and Shen Jingjing also walked to the front.

The small wooden box was very exquisite. After Shen Ci opened the lid, there was a folded paper amulet inside.

The top of the amulet was strung with a red rope, the end was decorated with small and exquisite tassels, and a crystal-clear small jade bead was strung in the middle.

"It seems to be an amulet. This must have come from Master Yu's own hands. A-Ci, you are too lucky; it's something many people can't ask for." Su Zheyuan was even more excited than Shen Ci.

Shen Ci was also quite happy. She didn't expect that she would be so lucky to light the longevity lamp for Master Yu and also receive a gift from him.

It seemed that there was only this one in the whole venue.

Even that small wooden box was not an ordinary box. Shen Ci learned later that it was agarwood, a very expensive wood.

Afterward, Master Yu only stayed in the courtyard for less than twenty minutes. Many people wanted to seize this opportunity to say a few words to Master Yu. It would be best if they could get some guidance from the Master.

This year is not like previous years. Master Yu is indeed old, and the opportunities to come out of the mountain are becoming more and more precious.

Only those top tycoons who spend huge sums of money can get a glimpse.

Shen Ci didn't join in the fun; she was already the luckiest person today.

After Master Yu left the scene, the climax of the whole occasion seemed to fade away. Su Zheyuan's cheeks were flushed from drinking, and he pulled Shen Ci and asked: "It's over, right? Are we leaving?"

Shen Ci also felt it was about time, thinking there shouldn't be any follow-up. After all, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening. For a centenarian, this time was about time to rest.

Everyone seemed to have this tacit understanding and didn't want to stay too late to disturb Master Yu's rest. One after another, people had already said goodbye to each other and walked outside.

As a result, just when she intended to leave, Wan Hu suddenly came over.

"Miss, please come with me."

Shen Ci looked at this handsome guy with a crew cut who was about the same age as her, and asked with some confusion: "Where to?"

"Just come with me."

Wan Hu didn't explain much and turned around to lead the way.

Shen Ci didn't have time to think too much, lifted her feet to follow, and instructed Su Zheyuan to wait for her outside.

Following Wan Hu into the villa, Shen Ci muttered in her heart: "Could it be that Master Yu wants to see her alone?" "Did he see through my rebirth?"

But it wasn't until she went all the way to the top floor of the villa and was finally led into a room by Wan Hu that Shen Ci came back to her senses.

Master Yu was not here.

Wan Hu looked at her and stretched out his hand: "Please, Miss, hand over the amulet Master gave you to me." ===== CHAPTER 780 =====
