Max-Level Metaphysician: A Debt Repayment Journey-Chapter 356: The Frank Ancestor
Chapter 356: Chapter 356: The Frank Ancestor
"Right," Yao Mingxuan nodded. "They seem worried about you and came over to check on you. They also said that you almost fell into the sea the day before. What exactly..."
She hadn’t finished her sentence.
Yao Mingxuan’s peripheral vision caught sight of two unfamiliar faces in the living room next door.
She paused mid-sentence and asked, "Who are these two?"
"Oh, they are my friends," Yao Xuanhang remembered that Jiangli and Xia Xin were still here, made brief introductions between them, and explained why he had invited Jiangli over.
After listening to his experiences over the past two days, Yao Mingxuan looked at Jiangli with some suspicion. She pulled Yao Xuanhang aside and whispered, "Xuanhang, haven’t you... encountered a scammer?"
"Sis, this was my own experience. How could it be a scam?" Yao Xuanhang laughed and cried, "If you don’t believe me, you can call Cui Wenzhe later. If you don’t believe me, surely you believe him, right?"
Yao Mingxuan was taken aback.
Compared to her brother, she was indeed more inclined to trust Cui Wenzhe.
At least Cui Wenzhe was much more reliable than Yao Xuanhang.
However, since Yao Xuanhang brought up Cui Wenzhe, the reliability of the matter seemed to increase significantly.
But still...
A shadow of doubt lingered in Yao Mingxuan’s heart.
The next second, she turned around and while walking back to the living room, she showed a warm and friendly smile to Jiangli, "I heard the Abbot saved my brother’s life before and owes a life-saving debt to the Yao Family. This time, the Abbot should have let me know first, so I could have personally welcomed the Abbot."
"There’s no need for such courtesy," Jiangli sat on the sofa, resting a hand on his forehead, his gaze landing on Yao Mingxuan’s face, with a slight curve on his lips, "You’ve been suffering quite a loss lately."
Yao Mingxuan was about to probe step by step, but upon hearing this, her smile froze, "What are you talking about?" freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Yao Xuanhang knew there must be some problem with his sister’s sudden change of demeanor and quickly followed her.
Hearing Jiangli’s words, his reaction was completely different from Yao Mingxuan’s. He hurriedly asked, "Abbot, can you see if there’s something wrong with my sister?"
Yao Mingxuan was stunned.
"Your nose, you’ve had surgery on it, right?" Jiangli asked bluntly, "It’s not natural?"
Yao Mingxuan: "..."
Jiangli went on, "You’ve had the surgery recently, right? I’ve heard from my disciple that modern people like you often undergo cosmetic surgery. I don’t know about the aesthetics, but having surgery can disrupt your natural facial features. Your face was originally round and well-defined, every feature was quite nice. It’s a pity that although your nose is much more lifted now, the tip has become narrow. The nose is the palace of wealth in a person’s face; a large and wide tip is a sign of a wealthy person. Now, your narrowed and concave tip signifies major financial loss."
Yao Mingxuan’s face tightened, completely taken aback.
"Sis, is the Abbot right?" Yao Xuanhang gripped Yao Mingxuan’s hand excitedly, "I remember, you did have a nose job a month ago, didn’t you?"
Yao Mingxuan’s complexion darkened, slightly embarrassed but she had to admit, Jiangli was indeed correct.
"I did have surgery recently, and I have indeed suffered some financial loss."
Yao Mingxuan was forthright and direct. When her secret was revealed, she didn’t hide it.
"The investment projects and funds I was involved in recently have all been losing money. I’ve already sold off whatever projects I could."
"Sis, such a big issue, why didn’t you tell the family?" Yao Xuanhang was somewhat anxiously speaking.
Yao Mingxuan frowned impatiently, "What’s the use of telling the family? The money’s already lost, can it be earned back?"
Yao Xuanhang was at a loss for words.
Yao Mingxuan, however, was quick to accept the situation and immediately turned to Jiangli, asking, "Since the Abbot noticed that I’ve been facing significant financial loss recently, I wonder if you could help me?"
