City's Best Divine Doctor-Chapter 1395 - 1394: Peak of the Seventh Layer of Qi Refinement Realm
Ye Weidong isn’t coming back for the year-end dinner, so now it’s just Ye Qiu, his mother, and sister eating together.
After finishing the dinner, Ye Qiu went upstairs to take a shower, planning to play a bit on the computer before starting his cultivation. Unexpectedly, Li Qianqian called first.
"Hey, what have you been up to these days? You haven’t come to see me at all?"
"I’ve been really busy!"
After Li Qianqian went on winter break and returned to her parents’ place, she thought Ye Qiu would call and ask her out, but not once did he.
"Busy with what?"
Li Qianqian didn’t really believe he was that busy.
"I’m going to France on New Year’s Eve."
"You’re going to France again?" She couldn’t believe it, Ye Qiu was going to France again and didn’t tell her. Naturally, Li Qianqian wanted to go to France with him.
However, her parents’ status was rather sensitive, and after something happened last time, Li Zhiguo and his wife were quite concerned about her safety and didn’t let Li Qianqian go traveling again.
"I originally wanted to ask you to apply for a visa together, but seeing as your parents definitely wouldn’t agree, I didn’t ask you."
After chatting with Li Qianqian for a long time, she finally hung up. Soon, Su Luoluo called again. She had called earlier, but Ye Qiu’s phone was busy, and now it finally got through.
After chatting with Su Luoluo, like other wealthy young ladies, Wen Xin had to work overtime at the affiliated hospital, and Xiao Mei and Liu Xia had already gone back home. They had just called, and Ye Qiu could hear the sound of fireworks on their side.
As for Zhao Ruxue and her sisters, they definitely went back to the Zhao Family home to have a reunion dinner with their parents. The Zhao Family is usually at its liveliest during the reunion dinner at New Year, with all relevant family members returning, and having dozens of tables for the reunion dinner is quite possible.
Meanwhile, Shen Yueru and Shen Xingru were also at the Shen Family villa. Shen Yueru wanted to invite Ye Qiu over for dinner, but for the year-end dinner, Ye Qiu couldn’t go over.
At most now, he could just chat with them on the phone.
Around midnight, as Ye Qiu felt his phone was getting hot, he stopped taking calls, shut the door, and started cultivating.
He didn’t know how long it had been, but Ye Qiu felt a rumbling in his Dantian, like the sound of an explosion, and vaguely saw the lotus-shaped object there becoming more pronounced.
Ye Qiu knew that he had finally broken through in his cultivation.
From the mid-Qi Refinement Realm’s seventh layer, he entered the peak of the seventh layer!
And this happened exactly on the first day of the new year!
When he opened his eyes and checked the time, it was already past three in the morning. He wondered if Xia Jing was already asleep by now?
He picked up his phone and called Xia Jing to ask, "Xia Jing, have you gone to bed?"
"Not yet, are you coming over?"
Xia Jing had been waiting for him to come.
She hadn’t seen Ye Qiu’s figure yet and thought he wasn’t planning to come over.
"I just finished up, I’m going to take a shower and then head over."
Just after cultivating, Ye Qiu felt a bit greasy all over after his breakthrough.
He grabbed some clothes and took a shower in the bathroom.
After getting dressed, he went downstairs and found that all the lanterns and lights in the villa were turned on. According to the custom, every room’s light should be on, previously with kerosene lamps.
Nowadays, almost no one uses kerosene lamps anymore; they all turn on electric lights.
Ye Qiu’s room was supposed to have its lights on too, but Chen Fang thought he fell asleep early and didn’t want to wake him.
Now that Ye Qiu was out, he got into the car and drove to Xia Jing’s upscale club.
Arriving outside the entrance of the upscale club, Ye Qiu parked the car and went in, noticing there were many customers.
There were quite a few young men and women around.
Ye Qiu went inside and directly went to Xia Jing’s VIP room. When he knocked on the door, he quickly saw a young woman in a black silk dress, exuding feminine charm, open the door.
Isn’t this Xia Jing?
"You made it."
Xia Jing smiled, letting Ye Qiu in, and after closing the door, it was quiet inside.
Now Xia Jing was alone inside; she was almost asleep but woke up when she heard Ye Qiu call, saying he was coming over.
She had just put on a simple outfit, but she seemed quite different.
"Do you want something to drink?"
"Red wine, white wine, whatever!"
After all, for Ye Qiu, it didn’t really matter.
Xia Jing got up to fetch a couple of bottles of red wine from the wine cabinet, then opened them with a corkscrew and poured two glasses of red wine.
The room’s lighting was soft, not very bright, but clear enough to see each other’s face well.
Usually, with money and time, Xia Jing took good care of herself, so she felt her maintenance was pretty good. Although almost thirty, she looked more like twenty-four or twenty-five.
However, her style of dressing was on the mature side.
"Your crow’s feet are a bit obvious."
Ye Qiu said.
Women over twenty-five, no matter how well they maintain or dress themselves, naturally start showing signs of aging. On Xia Jing’s face, whether she was smiling or not, the crow’s feet were indeed a bit noticeable.
Of course, with makeup, it was less visible.
But now, Xia Jing hadn’t used makeup to cover it.
"Really?"
Xia Jing hurriedly grabbed a mirror to check and indeed found crow’s feet. Previously, when she did maintenance, the staff had warned her and provided treatments for this, but ultimately, age does bring these unavoidable lines.
"It’s normal."
Ye Qiu said.
But Xia Jing suddenly felt like she had aged, which she hadn’t felt before; she only felt another year had passed quickly.
"I guess I’ll need to get some maintenance done again, otherwise women really age quickly."
Ye Qiu took a half-glass of red wine in one gulp, and it tasted pretty good, likely a high-quality imported wine.
Xia Jing took a small sip, then put it down, looking at Ye Qiu again, feeling a bit self-conscious under his gaze, despite him being a few years younger than her.
"If you really want to restore it to be as smooth and white as a boiled egg, I have a way."
"Really?"
Xia Jing asked in surprise.
Recalling how Ye Qiu treated her illness before, he might really be able to do it easily for her.
"I can help you with the treatment right now."
The desire for beauty is universal, and for Xia Jing, with no other pursuits, her appearance was most important.
Ye Qiu told her to close her eyes, saying, "In ten minutes, you’ll find it like magic."
