Chapter 14 Only One Person

Since he was recognized by Ya Fei, Xiao Yan didn't need to pretend anymore. He took off his hood helplessly, revealing his immature face.

"Sister Ya Fei, how did you recognize me?"

His figure was hidden by the cloak and his voice was deliberately lowered to make it difficult to distinguish. He should have hidden himself well, but Ya Fei recognized him on the spot.

"Hmm~ How did you recognize me~" Ya Fei smiled and approached Xiao Yan's face, looking at Xiao Yan's gradually red face, "Guess~"

"Sister Ya, Sister Ya Fei!"

As Ya Fei approached, the unique fragrance on her body almost made the innocent Xiao Yan lost in it. He suddenly came to his senses and moved away from Ya Fei a little.

Yao Chen shook his head when he saw this scene, and cursed his apprentice for not living up to his expectations in his heart.

Since she teased you, then tease her back! Why are you so cowardly? In the future, if you meet a woman, she will eat you to death?

Xiao Yan didn't know what Yao Chen was thinking. The unique fragrance of Ya Fei was still lingering around his nose. He seemed to understand something, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

"Was it in the afternoon?!"

"Although there is only a little bit of faint smell left, sister's nose is very sensitive~"

Ya Fei squinted one eye slightly, causing Xiao Yan to sweat a little on the side of his face.

The smell left by just a moment of contact could still be smelled after an afternoon

"So brother came to see sister so late, and dressed like this to hide his identity, what's the matter?"

Ya Fei crossed her arms slightly, looked at Xiao Yan with a charming smile and asked.

Xiao Yan was constantly thinking in his heart at this time, and finally looked at Ya Fei with a serious look.

"Sister Ya Fei, can you keep what I say next a secret?"

"."

Seeing Xiao Yan's serious look, Ya Fei also put away her smile and looked at Xiao Yan quietly.

After a long while, Ya Fei's vermilion lips opened and closed, and she answered in a solemn voice.

"Yes."

This short word contained Ya Fei's full sincerity.

Ya Fei knows how to use sweet words to convince the other party, but she will never use this method on Xiao Yan.

Since she was a child, Ya Fei has been on guard against everyone under the guidance of her grandfather, including the grandfather who taught her this point of view.

Three years ago, Ya Fei was sent to the family business in Wutan City for training. In business dealings, she met Xiao Yan, who was the representative of the Xiao family and had not yet fallen into poverty at that time, and then gradually became familiar with him.

Even though Xiao Yan's fighting spirit later degenerated and became a waste, Ya Fei's impression of him did not decrease at all.

After all, Ya Fei is a businessman. Although she is involved in cultivation, she does not pay too much attention to it.

In comparison, Xiao Yan, a young boy, is more valued by her.

In just three years of acquaintance, Ya Fei realized that Xiao Yan might be the only person in the world who deserves her sincere treatment.

This boy is too upright, and his integrity is not like that of people in this world.

If she uses the methods she used in the family business on Xiao Yan, Ya Fei will definitely not be able to forgive herself.

She is not qualified to tarnish this integrity.

Therefore, to answer Xiao Yan's question, just one word from the heart is enough.

After getting Ya Fei's answer, Xiao Yan did not hesitate any more, took out the foundation-building spirit liquid and handed it to Ya Fei.

"Sister Ya Fei, this thing is called foundation-building spirit liquid. Dissolving it in water and soaking it for cultivation can increase the speed of practicing Dou Qi. I hope to put it on auction at Miter Auction House."

Ya Fei reached out to take the foundation-building spirit liquid, and her charming eyes stared at the drop of emerald liquid in the bottle. Suddenly, she thought of the wood-attributed magic core she gave to Xiao Yan in the afternoon.

"Did you make this?!" Ya Fei approached Xiao Yan's face with shining eyes, and Xiao Yan smiled and raised his body.

"I'm not that capable yet. I just met an alchemist recently, and the other party accepted me as his apprentice. This foundation-building spirit liquid was also auctioned with the consent of the teacher."

Accepted as an apprentice by an alchemist? !

Ya Fei was shocked in her heart, and then she came back to her senses and pointed at the bottle of foundation-building spirit liquid in her hand.

"Shouldn't you keep this for yourself? Why are you auctioning it?"

"That, that. It's because." Xiao Yan was embarrassed by Ya Fei's question. He scratched his face and replied, "I'm short of money."

"."

Ya Fei was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud with her hands covering her mouth.

"Hahaha~ My good brother~ Not only is he the son of the head of the Xiao family, but he is also accepted as an apprentice by the alchemist. As a result, he sells the pills that he should use because he is short of money. It's too unreliable to tell others, right?"

Although she said so, Ya Fei had no reason to doubt Xiao Yan.

Because he is so upright, so upright that he won't tell a lie.

With Xiao Yan's character, he will definitely not ask his father for money for his personal affairs, even if Xiao Zhan is willing.

As for being accepted as an apprentice by the alchemist and still short of money, there are only two possibilities.

One is that the teacher Xiao Yan worships is very stingy, so stingy that the disciple is unwilling to pay for the materials.

But if this is the case, then this teacher would not allow Xiao Yan to sell the foundation-building spirit liquid, so the first possibility is unlikely.

In this case, there is only the second possibility.

That is, the teacher Xiao Yan worships is really penniless and does not have a single gold coin on him.

And this shocked Ya Fei.

Alchemists are not a profession that lacks money. Even the lowest-level elixirs will have people scrambling to buy them.

But alchemists can be poor.

High-level elixirs are not something that can be measured by money, so most of them are bartered.

In other words, high-level alchemists may indeed be poor, but they definitely have countless rare treasures!

Could it be that the alchemist who accepted Xiao Yan as his apprentice is of this level?

Although she had such doubts in her heart, Ya Fei did not ask.

She is a very smart woman. She knows clearly what to ask and what not to ask.

"I know, I'll take the things first." Ya Fei put away the foundation-building spirit liquid, looked at Xiao Yan and chuckled, "I'll ask Uncle Gu Ni to identify it when he comes tomorrow."

"Sorry to bother you, Sister Ya Fei."

Xiao Yan said, just as he was about to clasp his fists to salute, he noticed Ya Fei's slightly unhappy expression and quickly withdrew his hand.

Seeing Xiao Yan withdraw his hand, Ya Fei nodded with satisfaction, and then the charming smile appeared on her face again.

"Then the business is over. Do you want to go to your sister's room?"

"Goodbye!"

Before Ya Fei finished speaking, Xiao Yan pulled up his cloak and fled the room with sweat all over his head, not daring to stay for a moment.

Although he was still a minor, he was still a man after all. If he stayed with Ya Fei, who was so charming, Xiao Yan really couldn't guarantee that he would not make a mistake.

Looking at Xiao Yan who was running away, Ya Fei couldn't help but feel funny.

"Why are you running? Your sister won't eat you." As soon as these words came out, Ya Fei paused slightly, and then showed a meaningful smile, "No, that's not necessarily true~"
