"Adohi, I was wrong. I was too rash and offended you all."
Rejected by Adohi, Bradley’s face falls immediately, and he looks towards Kahua with an embarrassed expression, hoping for his help.
Kahua, of course, understands that Adohi is using this situation to make Bradley owe Kahua a favor.
"Adohi."
Kahua says with a smile, "Mr. Jones is just anxious for his beloved wife and spoke rudely without meaning to."
Simra is also moved by Bradley.
After all, it’s rare for someone of his stature to kneel for his wife.
"Adohi, please help."
Simra gently grabs Adohi's arm, her eyes full of pleading.
"Alright."
Adohi doesn’t put on airs, just glances at Bradley. "I agree to help, but it's for Dr. Zack and the beauty Simra's sake."
Bradley is ecstatic, quickly bowing to Adohi and Kahua. "Thank you, Dr. Yates, and thank you, Dr. Zack and Miss Simra!"
Kahua is very pleased, silently praising Adohi's understanding of human relationships.
"Adohi, please have some tea!"
Bradley quickly pours a cup of tea for Adohi, hands it over with both hands, and excitedly asks, "Mr. Yates, if I throw away the red Pixiu at the head of the bed, will my wife get better?"
Adohi takes the tea, responding slowly, "It will help half-way. Your body has already been invaded by evil spirits. To fully recover, we need to use some special methods."
Bradley quickly helps his wife to sit down, asking respectfully, "Dr. Yates, I will immediately bring all the decorations from the room for your review!"
There are many decorations and jade artifacts in the room, and he is afraid that, besides the red Pixiu, there might be other ominous objects.
Otherwise, he wouldn't know who else to seek revenge from!
"Okay!"
After agreeing, Adohi sits down to drink tea.
Bradley hurries to his room to fetch the Pixiu.
Meanwhile, Madam Jones politely addresses Adohi. "Dr. Yates, I am Sadie Watson. Do you also have your own clinic like Dr. Zack?"
"No, I work at a construction company."
Hearing this, Sadie's eyes light up. "Dr. Yates, our family is in land development, so we're kind of in the same field!"
Adohi smiles faintly. "You could say that."
Seeing Adohi's demeanor, Sadie is full of wonder.
It's as if Adohi has never heard of her husband’s name!
Land baron Bradley, he hasn’t heard of him.
Or is it that Adohi doesn't care about it?
At this moment, Bradley comes downstairs with a bunch of decorations from his room.
Sadie feigns surprise and smiles. "Husband, Dr. Yates is in the same field as us!"
Hearing this, Bradley's eyes also light up. "Dr. Yates, where do you work?"
"Adohi works at Lindsey Group!"
Simra, sitting next to Adohi, smiles and answers for him.
"Lindsey Group?"
Bradley laughs even more heartily. "What a coincidence, I just met a shareholder of Lindsey Group!"
"Let me think, that's right, his name is Philip Lowe!"
Hearing this, Adohi couldn't help but frown. Wasn't Philip Lowe the biological father of James Lowe?
"Philip is the second largest shareholder of the Lindsey Group, but I have no interactions with him."
Hearing Adohi say this, Bradley smiled and said, "That's easy, I'll invite you to my place for a meal tomorrow, and everyone can get acquainted!"
Adohi shook his head, his tone somewhat cold, "No need, I don't want to have any relationship with Philip and his son! And they are not worthy to dine at the same table with me!"
Bradley, a shrewd businessman who was also good at reading people, could infer a lot from just one sentence of Adohi's.
Adohi and Philip, father and son, have a conflict!
"It's okay, since Dr. Yates doesn't like it, just pretend I never said it!"
Bradley quickly changed the subject, pointing to a pile of ornaments on the ground, "By the way, Dr. Yates, can you see which ornament is problematic?"
Adohi casually glanced over and locked onto a Pixiu and a jade pendant.
A stream of black energy invisible to others was flowing around them!
But Adohi is a Cultivator, and no evil barrier can escape his Dharma eye!
"It's this red Pixiu and this jade pendant that are problematic; they're contaminated. Let's throw them away too."
Adohi spoke his mind directly!
Bradley clenched his teeth, "This Pixiu... was a gift to my wife from Philip, the second shareholder of the Lindsey Group!"
"I accepted his gift and was ready to agree to sell him the No.2 land!"
Bradley's face turned dark with anger!
Philip, what are your true intentions?
However, Kahua, hearing this, was completely puzzled, "Director Jones, it's just a jade Pixiu. How could you give him such important commercial land rights just like that?"
Bradley smiled helplessly, "Philip somehow found an old benefactor of mine to speak for him, and I did this to repay my benefactor!"
Kahua nodded, "So that's what happened!"
Yes, in this world, the hardest debts to repay are those of kindness and human sentiment!
Adohi was indifferent to these matters, "Mr. Jones, try to keep fewer obscurely sourced ornaments and jade items in your house. The way of Mysterious Chinese geomancy (An ancient Chinese traditional practice which claims to use energy forces to harmonize individuals with their surrounding environment.) is intricate; don't invite trouble."
As he spoke, Adohi concentrated his energy and gently pressed on the Pixiu!
Crack!
The Pixiu shattered at the sound, and a wisp of faint black gas emerged, mysteriously!
"What is that?"
Everyone was shocked.
"It's evil energy."
Adohi didn't hide anything, "In the path of Taoist arts, there is good and evil. It can help people, but also harm them. This Pixiu was infused with evil energy to harm others."
Saying this, Adohi gathered a breath of immortal energy and blew the evil energy away, disappearing without a trace.
"This..."
Both Dr. Zack and Bradley were wide-eyed.
"Is it resolved just like that?"
Simra asked quietly, "I thought Adohi would have to draw talismans and spells."
"Hehe."
Adohi smiled, "For such a minor issue, I don't need to draw talismans and spells."
Then, Adohi helped Sadie massage her hands and back heart meridian, clearing the Qi and blood and driving away the trace of evil energy in her body.
It was less than a minute.
Sadie's complexion visibly improved, "I feel my strength slowly coming back!"
This was simply miraculous!
It couldn't be explained by science!
Bradley was extremely excited, admiring Adohi greatly!
He felt that Adohi was not only skilled in medicine but also a master of Mysterious Martial Arts!
Such a person must not be neglected!
And Dr. Zack was extremely happy in his heart, having long regarded Adohi as his granddaughter's husband. Adohi's extraordinary abilities brought him honor!
"The world is vast, with endless wonders."
"Especially the mystical and Taoist arts of The Red Dragon, passed down for thousands of years, profound and mysterious. Everyone should maintain a sense of awe, and not touch what they don't understand."
Adohi's words seemed simple but contained profound truths.
"Adohi, your teaching is so correct."
Bradley and his wife were greatly impressed, and Dr. Zack nodded repeatedly in agreement!
Simra's eyes shone brightly, admiring and loving Adohi immensely!
"It's just the time for lunch, Dr. Yates, you must stay for a simple meal!"
"You cured my wife, you must give me a chance to thank you!"
Bradley was particularly expectant, and Sadie, taking the initiative, gently grasped Adohi's arm, "Stay, have a meal with us!"
