Chapter 840: She Is My Woman!
Lao Cai's text message arrived urgently, catching Xu Que completely off guard.
After investigating for over a year, there was finally news!
Of course, even without news, Xu Que had plenty of ways to find Xu Feifei; it was just that he hadn't quite figured out yet what posture he should adopt when meeting her.
After all, she was his own biological sister, and he had been gone for over six years, leaving under the identity of a dead man!
If he suddenly appeared before her now, she would probably be startled!
Therefore, what Xu Que wanted now was to ensure Xu Feifei's safety and understand her recent situation.
"Whoosh!"
Eventually, Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan landed in Linshen City and headed to the address Lao Cai had given, which turned out to be the Dalaideng Hotel again.
Being in a hurry and not wanting to attract the attention of passersby, Xu Que concealed his and Jiang Hongyan's forms, sneaking forward without causing any disturbance.
At the same time, inside an auction room at the Dalaideng Hotel.
Lao Cai, Huang Cheng, and Liu Xiaoli were all present, the atmosphere appearing somewhat strange.
Especially Lao Cai, whose head still felt a bit muddled.
Huang Cheng and Liu Xiaoli had actually informed him that Xu Que had been in a car accident over six years ago, everyone thought he was dead, yet unexpectedly he had returned, though his mental state seemed to have developed problems.
Lao Cai originally didn't believe it, but after hearing their account, he became half-believing and half-doubting.
After all, ever since contacting Xu Que last year, he had felt Xu Que was a bit odd; moreover, after receiving the movie, that guy had vanished without a trace until suddenly reappearing just two days ago.
Furthermore, some of the words he had spoken, now recalled, were indeed somewhat strange.
For instance, phrases like "all living beings are mere ants" or "cultivating these past few years"; any normal person hearing them would think he was joking.
But Xu Que had even told Lin Yuxi that the Fairy on the moon was his woman, which made one unable to help but doubt his mental state.
"People used to say that there is only a fine line between a genius and a madman! Van Gogh was also a madman, which is why he created so many classic works of art; could it be that Xu Que has also gone mad, and that is why his technical skills in making movie special effects are so superb?" Lao Cai said with a bewildered expression.
"Director Cai, stop doubting; just trust us and you won't go wrong!" Huang Cheng shook his head and sighed with emotion: "Anyway, once he arrives and we all sit down face-to-face to talk, everything will become clear! To be honest, I also feel now that Xu Que has truly gone mad!"
Lao Cai also let out a long sigh: "Sigh! It seems he hasn't had an easy time these past years; over six years ago I was still abroad, never expecting he would experience life and death, and be separated from his sister for over six years!"
Liu Xiaoli picked up her wine glass, took a sip, and said leisurely: "Surviving a great disaster is already quite good fortune! You two were previously blaming Lin Yuxi, but just look at what she is doing now: spending money and effort, finding the best mental hospital, and upon hearing news that Xu Feifei had returned to the country, immediately rushing to the Capital City!"
"Heh, on this point I actually think it is only right. In the final analysis, wasn't Xu Que being ambushed back then also because of her?" Huang Cheng immediately sneered.
What Lin Yuxi was doing now, although quite honorable, was in reality just making up for the guilt in her heart, wanting to have a clear conscience.
"Huang Cheng, how can you speak like that? Him being ambushed was due to his own lack of strength; what does it have to do with Lin Yuxi?" Liu Xiaoli immediately widened her eyes.
Seeing the two were about to start arguing, Lao Cai hurriedly interjected: "Enough, enough, you both say less; Miss Lin being able to do this much is indeed already very good! By the way, isn't the vehicle from the mental hospital arriving soon?"
Liu Xiaoli nodded: "Yes, I arranged with someone to speak with the hospital side, so it should be arriving soon! In a moment, we'll properly send your good brother Xu Que onto the vehicle; given his mental state, I'm truly afraid he might one day think too much and scare Yuxi!"
"Damn it, how can we put him on the vehicle when nothing has been confirmed yet? Regardless of anything, we must wait until I've finished talking with Old Xu!"
Lao Cai was instantly speechless; Huang Cheng and Liu Xiaoli were acting too recklessly, basing their conclusion that Xu Que was mentally ill solely on speculation and immediately arranging for a mental hospital vehicle to pick him up.
Liu Xiaoli rolled her eyes: "Do you think I wanted to? If it weren't for Yuxi instructing me, I wouldn't bother spending favors to help him find one; this is a mental hospital with an environment ranked among the top in the entire nation, ordinary people couldn't get in even if they wanted to!"
While the three in the auction room chatted incessantly, Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan had already entered the Dalaideng Hotel.
Upon reaching the hotel entrance, the two no longer concealed their forms, walking in openly and squarely.
"Welco..." The hostess at the entrance performed her routine greeting of guests, but halfway through her words, she was completely stunned.
She looked at Jiang Hongyan in shock, her eyes widened enormously, "Y-you... aren't you Fairy Chang'e?"
"Me?" Jiang Hongyan was momentarily stunned, clearly unaware that she had already become a household name on Earth, rumored to be Fairy Chang'e.
"Ignore them; let's go up first!" Xu Que smiled, holding Jiang Hongyan's hand while simultaneously waving his hand in front of the hostess.
The hostess instantly froze in place, pausing for quite a while; only after Xu Que and Jiang Hongyan entered the elevator did she return to normal, as if nothing had happened, continuing to stand at the entrance waiting for guests!
"I never expected that things in your hometown would all be so interesting!" After entering the elevator, Jiang Hongyan looked around curiously.
Xu Que had previously displayed many things in the Cultivation World that could operate autonomously without needing True Essence Power to drive them; only now did she realize his hometown was exactly like this.
Although there were no Cultivators here, the Mortals still lived very well with a high standard; at least in terms of Mortals, they were far ahead of the Mortals in the Cultivation World!
"If we could bring these techniques back, the lives of the Mortals would become better and better!" Jiang Hongyan said softly, lost in thought.
Even having arrived here, she would still subconsciously worry about the people of the Cultivation World; after all, in the Water Yuan Kingdom or on Xuanzhen Continent, she had once been an Empress!
Xu Que smiled: "That would probably take quite some time; knowledge is the primary productive force; after returning, we can first popularize knowledge like mathematics, physics, and chemistry among the common people of Five Elements Mountain!"
"Mm!" Jiang Hongyan nodded with a smile.
Ding!
At this moment, the elevator happened to arrive at the hotel's upper floors.
Xu Que still held Jiang Hongyan's hand as he stepped out.
"Welco..." There were still service staff greeting guests outside the elevator; as soon as the doors opened, they hurriedly offered enthusiastic reception.
But when they saw Jiang Hongyan, they instantly froze stiff, their faces filled with shock and disbelief, even more stunned than upon seeing a famous superstar.
Fairy Chang'e?
Oh my god, has Fairy Chang'e appeared in our hotel?
Xu Que maintained an expression of solemnity, ignoring the shocked gazes of the crowd, and led Jiang Hongyan directly toward the corridor.
Jiang Hongyan asked curiously: "Little one, why are they all so surprised to see me, as if they all know me?"
Xu Que smiled, and only then informed Jiang Hongyan about the incident where the satellite photos had circulated.
Only after listening did Jiang Hongyan understand; the people of this realm had never seen a Cultivator, or rather, in their perception, Cultivators did not exist.
While speaking, the two had already arrived outside the door of the auction room Lao Cai had indicated.
Just as Xu Que raised his hand, preparing to knock, voices from inside the room drifted out.
"Huang Cheng, President Liu, when Old Xu arrives later, you must not speak recklessly! I will handle the talk with him!"
"Director Cai, your words are incorrect; even if Xu Que has truly become a lunatic, I, Huang Cheng, will still treat him as a friend; how could I possibly speak recklessly!"
"Ugh, stop bringing up that lunatic; it's not even confirmed yet?"
"Heh, Director Cai, no offense from me, Liu Xiaoli, but Xu Que is already imagining that Chang'e Fairy on the moon as his woman; if that isn't lunacy, what is?"
"Hey, come to think of it, that Chang'e Fairy is quite eerie; the entire internet is in an uproar today, saying she has descended to Earth, and right at Mount Tai!"
"What, descended at Mount Tai? What a coincidence?" Lao Cai was instantly startled, recalling how Xu Que had asked him to find people to seal off Mount Tai.
Suddenly, Lao Cai vaguely sensed something, and his heart gave a Shock: "Could it be..."
"Knock, knock!"
At that moment, the sound of knocking rang out.
Immediately after, the Room door was pushed open, and all three of them—Lao Cai included—turned their heads to look.
There they saw Xu Que holding Jiang Hongyan's small hand, appearing before them with a smiling expression, and he opened his mouth to say, "Lao Cai, let me introduce you; this is my woman—Jiang Hongyan! Oh, right, she just came down from the moon!"
