Chapter 224
Chapter 224 As they were seated together, Fade Chen began to chat with Winnie Huo. He said,"Winnie, you’re a big star. Why did you come to Cloud Clan to ask for medicine ?" As he said this,Winnie’s face fell slightly. She shook her head and said, "My main purpose coming here is not to askfor medicine, but to travel to a new place and enjoy myself. I heard about Cloud Clan, so I came herefor a holiday." "You are here on holiday? Is your work causing you stress?" Fade asked as he smiled.
Winnie nodded, and she complained to Fade, "Many people think that the lives of film stars areglamorous, but we face many issues secretly.
Especially for an aging actress like myself, I might not regain popularity any time soon." "Why wouldyou say that? You are only around 27 or 28 years old. Your popularity is waning?" Fade asked. Winniesighed, "You don’t know the enormous pressure and stiff competition we face in our industry.Nowadays, those young and beautiful girls in their early twenties are all stunning. It’s quite normal forus to be called aunts." "I see, you are stressed about work," Fade said, and he tried to console her. Hesaid, "With your great qualities, you can still earn a good income, even if you are not the top star!"Winnie said, "These issues have been getting on my nerves recently. I am stressed out all the time, so Idecided to travel and take it easy" When she spoke of her personal affairs, Winnie felt rather annoyed.She stopped talking about these issues, and she changed the topic. "By the way, Fade, you seem quiteyoung. How can you be so powerful?" Then, both of them started conversing. Fade finally discoveredWinnie’s authentic side. She was beautiful in person and straightforward in personality, which wasmore attractive than her image as an actress. Jonathan Dai was beside them. His cheeks were still redand swollen.novelbin
When he saw that Fade and Winnie were chatting animatedly, he became furious. He couldn’t help butwhisper, "Present our gifts later, and the leader of Cloud Clan will teach that guy a lesson." Karson Maonodded and said, "Master, don’t worry. Our gift is considered precious. The master of Cloud Clan willdefinitely agree to our request." Both of them immediately smiled confidently, and they were not in a
hurry to walk forward. There were two others who didn’t follow the crowd. They were the eldestdaughter of the Li family of Peony River, Sasha Li, and an elder beside her. Sasha held her hands infront of her chest and looked disdainfully at the crowd. With a contemptuous smile, she whispered,"Look at these group of ants behaving like beggars. How terrible!" The elder beside her said, "Miss, doyou want me to drive them away?" Sasha said, "No, I still have time anyway. Besides, I’m worried thatGuardian Zhuo will be annoyed if I drive them away now." At the mention of Guardian Zhuo, the elderpondered for a while. Then, he said, "Miss, do you think you can personally get Guardian Zhuo to takeaction ?" There was a confident smile on the corner of Sasha’s mouth, and she said, "I didn’t haveconfidence yesterday. But now, I’m sure he won’t decline our offer. Once he sees the gift that arrivedyesterday, he will accept our offer." As they talked to each other, both of them glanced at DonovanZhuo, who was smiling as he distributed medicine. It was a busy time. After nearly two hours, almost allthe people who were there for medicine got what they wanted, and they were pleased. Seeing thatthere were fewer people, Jonathan made his move at this moment. He walked with Karson Mao towardElder Chai, smiling confidently. "May I help you ?" Elder Chai asked. With a smile on his face, Jonathanapproached him and took out an item from the pocket on his shirt. He handed it to Elder Chai and said,"Master, this is a high quality jade that I specially ordered. Please accept this gift!" Elder Chai’s face fellwhen he saw this. He yelled, "What are your intentions ?" Jonathan smiled and said, "Master, it’s just alittle gift to show my gratitude. I wanted to request for Guanyin Drunken Medicine." He wanted to usethis medicine to take down Winnie. Hearing his request, Elder Chai’s face turned cold instantly. He saidicily,"Cloud Clan does not have that kind of medicine. Get out, quickly leave right now!" Jonathanwasn’t expecting Elder Chai to get angry, he quickly explained, "Master, this is a high quality jade. 1spent." Without waiting for Jonathan to finish his sentence, Elder Chai’s body erupted with a wave ofviolent energy, causing Jonathan to be blown away. At the same time, he shouted, "Medicine fromCloud Clan is meant for healing, to cure sick people, and not for selfish purposes. You are insultingCloud Clan!" Jonathan didn’t expect this to happen, and he was dumbfounded. The people aroundgazed at Jonathan as though they were watching a drama unfold. They kept shaking their heads andstarted talking about him. "This guy thought that he can buy anything with money! This is not any
ordinary city. This is a clan!" "He is used to doing things this way in the city, and he thought that hecould bribe the masters of Cloud Clan!" "How ridiculous. If the clan leaders were after money, theywould just need to open a pharmacy in the city. The profit they can earn there would be higher!"Jonathan’s face suddenly fell. He didn’t expect to become the laughingstock of the public. His facechanged. At this time, Sasha and the elder held their heads high and walked over with confidence.They glanced at Jonathan with disdain, and then walked directly to Donovan. Sasha said, "GuardianZhuo, I’m Sasha Li from Peony River." As soon as Donovan heard her name, he knew why Sasha washere. He immediately said in a low voice, "Miss Li, forgive me, I can’t help your grandfather." Sashasmiled and said, "Guardian Zhuo, don’t reject me in a hurry. This is a little gift from the Li family." Afterthat, the elder clapped his hands. Suddenly, the whirring sound of a helicopter could be heard. A hugeparcel was hanging from the helicopter as it flew toward the square. Hearing this sound, Elder Chai’sface fell. He said sternly, "Miss Li, do you need me to repeat my words ? Cloud Clan will not allowrequests for selfish reasons." Guardian Zhuo smiled and nodded. Clearly, he agreed with Elder Chai’swords. However, Sasha had a confident look on her face. She shook her head and said," Elder Chaiand Guardian Zhuo, don’t be anxious. Let’s just wait and see what this gift is." Then, the helicopterapproached, and the parcel fell to the ground. The elder opened the parcel, revealing what was inside.Seeing the gift in the parcel, everyone’s eyes lit up and their faces were full of surprise.
