The Ceo’s Loser Wife - Chapter 204

Unbeknownst to Lang Miha’s sufferings, Mignani and Runyan were happily celebrating the small success in their office room.

The ladies giggled and chatted for a while before leaving the company together.

Mignani was already done for the day and Runyan as well wanted to head back early and start working on her cultivation progress.

Since they had planned to wait for at least two weeks or a month before introducing their SPA line, Runyan did not have much work in the next couple of weeks.

She wanted to use this opportunity to train in the new fighting technique that Su Lin imparted to her.

To be suitable for Runyan’s thin physique and calm nature, Su Lin had imparted her a defensive staff technique, White River art.

This technique focuses on the body and mind being limber and being able to bend around the obstacles.

Of course, even if it is mostly defensive moves, the technique still had a few finishing moves to be able to deal deadly blows.

But right now, her biggest problem was finding a staff!

Who in the right mind would have a staff in their house ready available?

So Runyan decided to visit the antique market to scour for some ancient staffs or even sticks and Shen Mignani tagged along with her as well.

The two of them enjoyed each other’s company and Runyan didn’t mind her accompanying.

She simply explained this weird shopping spree as looking for decorative items from the ancient times.

The two of them started their search at the local shops in the front which were full of junk.

But even the pieces of junk were quite baffling.

The different types of stone, the artistry of each item; they were all impressive, to say the least.

Finally, having finished window shopping in cheaper places, Runyan and Mignani entered the most famed antique shop in Hangzhou city.

When Mignani and Runyan entered the shop, unexpectedly a familiar face greeted them.

Su Han was sitting with his grandfather, the duo picking out exquisite jade armaments.

As soon as he saw his person of interest, Su Han smiled apologetically but both Runyan and Mignani ignored him.

Runyan looked around the fancy ornate shop to see if she could find anything decent, but nothing staff-like struck her eye.

What drew the most attention from her was instead a round ball.

This round object was formed out of kyanite crystal with red ruby infused within it, about an inch in diameter.

The rock was really smooth and beautiful in a way. The red glow was shining all around the shiny gem.

But what really caught Runyan’s eye was the strong spiritual energy emanated by the crystal.

She tried absorbing the energy but felt an invisible force blocking her path.

She silently rotated her cultivation base and sent some spiritual energy it’s way, which the crystal absorbed really fast.

Runyan’s face immediately lit up.

Just like the array rocks, she was sure that this crystal was also some sort of special treasure or at the least a special material.

She hurriedly asked the shop keeper to wrap it up.

As soon as she touched it and picked it up, the shopkeeper gave her a weird condescending look.

“This is not for sale. This pile here is the trash pile, that I will throw out once the shop is closed. He harrumphed.”

All his customers were from the royal families in the city and he was sure that the young woman in front of him did not belong in this shop.

Grandpa Su who was also on his way out, after having finished his purchases, scoffed with contempt.

“This is what happens when people with no culture or taste get some money. They immediately rush over to buy something fancy and raise their status.”

“What a pity… Only heavens can save these mindless younger generations…”

“Ha ha. What are you saying, elder? Our young master Su Han here has an impeccable eye when it comes to antiques.”

The shop keeper took this chance to buŧŧer up Grandpa Su.

But Su Han was not really happy with all this flattery. He was afraid that the relationship between him and Runyan would become even more strained.

He immediately hushed the shopkeeper and raised his gold-rimmed glasses, speaking in an authoritative tone.

“Old Min, I owe this beautiful Miss here a favor. So please help me out and pack this crystal ball for her.”

“If you say so, young master.” The shopkeeper did not dally around any further and quickly accepted the payment for all the items.

He promptly handed over to Su Han the jade armaments that his grandfather had purchased and handed over to Runyan the crystal ball with a wide smile.

Since the young master of the Su family was interested in the beauty, the shopkeeper changed his attitude in a heartbeat.

How fake! Runyan smirked and received the crystal ball. The idiot doesn’t even know the value of the item in his hand!

These fools can continue their theatrics, Runyan only cared about the heavenly treasure.

“Sorry about the other day. My friends had drunk quite a bit and behaved very inappropriately.” Su Han apologized.

“Mmmm.” Runyan nodded and handed him some money. She didn’t want to owe him anything.

Without giving him any further face, she quickly turned around to leave. Mignani closely followed behind her as well.

Su Han sighed in disappointment. He would have wanted to talk with her a bit more but at least the meeting was not as bad.

He affectionately gazed at the yuan bills on his hand, that she had given him and pocketed them carefully.

With a silly smile on his lips, he then left the store to join Grandpa Su who was waiting for him outside.

Since he was daydreaming, lost in his own world, Su Han failed to notice the strange look on Grandpa Su’s face.

The old man wore a complex expression having understood the gist of what just transpired in front of him.

He shook his head disappointedly and got into the car.

“It seems I should speed up finding a proper suitor for my grandson. Otherwise, some vultures might grab a hold of him!” He angrily muttered.

The old man cast a disdainful glance from his speeding car on the two beautiful women who were returning to the parking lot.

Beauty would always be the demise of a good man!

Meanwhile, Runyan quickly dropped Mignani back in her villa and drove back to the company.

She had a hunch that Su Lin might still be working in the lab though it was already 10 pm in the night.

Ever since Luther went into secluded meditation, Su Lin had been constantly terrorizing the research department employees, and more importantly Little white.

Calling the cute thing a spirit beast in the process of evolution, Su Lin had been feeding it experimental stuff left and right.

So Runyan was slightly afraid to visit her dear friend and honorable master, just in case some experimental herbal concoction laid in waiting for her.

But today, she was too excited to care about all that stuff!

She bravely barged into the research lab and looked for her.

Su Lin was nowhere to be found.

Without any other option left, Runyan rotated her cultivation base and used her spiritual sense to scan the building, when she sensed a figure spasming in the women’s restroom.

Runyan dropped the bag on her hand and dashed towards the restroom at her top speed.

Her heart loudly thumped and her face looked devastated, worrying what went wrong.

If there was something wrong with Su Lin, Runyan shuddered to think about how she could even possibly begin to help her.

She rushed into the restroom and saw a woman sprawled on the bathroom floor, whimpering in pain.

Su Lin’s entire body was twitching uncomfortably, while she saw tightly holding her stomach and enduring the spasm.

Runyan collapsed on the ground in shock.

She pulled Su Lin closer to her and rested her head on her ŀȧp.

She held her hand and fingers so that Su Lin could dig into her flesh for support.

“Sis, what happened? What happened?” Runyan panicked.

Looking at Su Lin so miserably suffering in pain, she couldn’t understand head or tails.

She quickly checked her body for any wounds or bleeding, but she seemed to be perfectly fine from the outside.

But her face was so pale and frightening. Her thin frame was shivering from the pain she was unmistakably enduring.

Runyan’s eyes were full of tears as she quickly took out her phone from her pockets and texted Squirrel.

She blamed herself for being so useless. Everyone relied on Su Lin for everything.

Now that she is in pain, who was there to help her?
