Chapter 2034 — Indeed Complicated — "It Is Nothing Serious; Jingjing Will Treasure It!" Han Jingyi Said with a Nod.

"All right, whatever you say. This is an auxiliary cultivation method for alchemists, and this is the formula for condensing alchemical fire. Try cultivating both of them. Start with the auxiliary method, then try condensing your alchemical fire." Wei Zhao handed Han Jingyi the materials Bai Lingtou had given him. "Scan yourself a copy onto your tablet. Carrying these around is too conspicuous. I got them from someone else."
Until Han Jingyi had achieved something, Wei Zhao did not want anyone to know too much.
"All right. Jingjing will scan them in a little while!" Han Jingyi nodded.
"Then that settles it. Han Jingyi, study them on your own for now. I am heading back first," Wei Zhao said.
"Brother Wei Zhao, from now on, just call me Jingjing. That is my nickname; everyone in my family calls me that!" Han Jingyi said. "Han Jingyi sounds too formal!"
"All right, Jingjing it is." Wei Zhao had no objection. He nodded, said goodbye, and left.
By the time he returned home, the young mistress and Xiaoshu had not yet gone to bed. Wei Zhao had not really been delayed for long. He had merely eaten with Han Jingyi and Han Xiaochao, passed along the things Bai Lingtou had given him, and offered Han Jingyi a few instructions.
"Wei Zhao, how did it go? Can Han Jingyi refine pills?" Gu Mengyao hurried over to ask when she saw him return.
In truth, she was even more anxious than Wei Zhao. Tang Zhi had already left, and she did not want Feng Xiaoxiao to be unable to come back as well.
"How could we know so soon?" Wei Zhao gave a wry smile. "Alchemy is not that simple. We will have to wait before we can tell!"
"I see. I suppose I was being too impatient." Gu Mengyao smiled sheepishly, then turned to look at Xiaoshu.
"Sister Yaoyao, why are you looking at me?" Shen Yushu asked, utterly bewildered. "Have I grown a flower on my face?"
"Pfft..." Gu Mengyao was nearly knocked senseless by Shen Yushu. "Did you not have something to say to your stand-in bro?"
"Me? Something to say?" Shen Yushu blinked. "No, I do not."
"How could you not? Have you forgotten? Ahem!" Gu Mengyao glared at her in mounting frustration.
"No, I have not. Sister Yaoyao, what on earth are you talking about?" Shen Yushu stared at Gu Mengyao, completely confused.
"This!" Gu Mengyao reached straight into Shen Yushu's clothes and gave her a couple of quick pinches...
"Ah! Sister Yaoyao, that is cheating..." Shen Yushu shrieked, then suddenly understood. "You mean the underwear! Right, Stand-in Bro, where are the underwear Sister Yaoyao and I bought?"
Gu Mengyao was left speechless. I was too embarrassed to ask, so I told you to do it. At this rate, you would have done better to let me ask myself. What a mess!
"The underwear? I had completely forgotten about them since you did not mention them!" Only then did Wei Zhao remember. After picking them up, he had put them in the trunk of the car. But Han Jingyi and Han Xiaochao had been in the car ever since, and then Xu Shilan had shown up. Wei Zhao had been even more embarrassed to take the underwear out in front of Xu Shilan, and before long, he had simply forgotten all about them.
He slapped his forehead and said apologetically, "I will go get them for you right now."
With that, Wei Zhao turned and walked out of the villa. He retrieved the box of underwear from the car and placed it on the coffee table in the living room.
"Um... Stand-in Bro, when you packed our underwear, did you happen to see anything unusual?" Shen Yushu asked.
"Huh?" Gu Mengyao nearly had the urge to strangle Shen Yushu on the spot. Wei Zhao had put the box on the coffee table without saying a word and was already about to turn and return to his room, yet one sentence from Shen Yushu had reminded him of everything!
"Something?" Wei Zhao paused, then turned back. In front of Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu, he opened the box, took out the electric toy, and asked, "Do you mean this?"
