Chapter 75: Ghost Market Gathering, Beauty Traveling Together
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was a call from Professor Lü!
Could it be that the expert who repaired the Warring States gold foil had a chance?
With doubts in his heart, Su Yun picked up the call.
Professor Lü’s old but deep voice sounded. “Little Su, have you rested?”
Professor Lü was highly respected and warm-hearted. Su Yun naturally respected the old man. He hurriedly replied respectfully, “No, young people sleep late. Is there something urgent?”
“Didn’t you ask me to find a repair expert previously? Coincidentally, our academy’s ancient relics club is going to the ghost market of the Ancient City for a gathering tomorrow. At that time, I have an old friend who will be there. He’s a repair expert, so I want to ask if you have time. Do you want to participate?”
A ghost market? A ancient relics club?
Su Yun was overjoyed and quickly nodded. “No problem. It’s just that… I’m not a member of the club. I still need the professor to help me through the back door.”
Professor Lü smiled and said, “Hey, as a student of Hibiscus University, this isn’t difficult. I’ll just go and greet him. As for the restoration expert, I’ll help you inform him in advance. He still has to give me this face.”
Upon hearing this, Su Yun did not know how to express his gratitude. “Thank you so much. I’ll definitely visit you another day to thank you.”
“You’re welcome. I really like your studious spirit. Just take it that I’m encouraging you young people to study more classical literature and contribute a little…’
On one hand, Su Yun wanted to express his respect. On the other hand, he wanted to solve the news about the Warring States Period golden foil. He chatted with Professor Lü about topics like Warring States Literature.
Professor Lü really admired Su Yun. The two of them crossed the age gap and chatted a lot about literature in the Warring States Period like old masters and disciples.
In the end, Professor Lü said that it was getting late, and the two of them hung up reluctantly.
Su Yun also received an accurate answer from Professor Lü. He asked him to set off for the academy and the ancient relics club at noon tomorrow, or he could go to Burning Light Ancient City first.
After hanging up the phone, Su Yun silently calculated.
The problem of finding an expert in cultural relic restoration had been resolved. As for whether the other party could help or anything else, it was not the time to consider.
However,
Warring States gold foil was a precious cultural relic, and it was still missing. Wouldn’t it attract too much attention if he rashly took it out?
The experts who repaired the cultural relics seemed to be related to the Cultural Relics Bureau. Perhaps the other party also knew about the loss of the Warring States gold foil.
At the thought of this, Su Yun was in trouble again.
If the experts could see through the Warring States gold foil, wouldn’t he become the number one suspect?
But now that the arrow was on the bow, he had no choice but to shoot.
In the end, Su Yun decided to take it one step at a time. When the time came, he would see the expert in restoring cultural relics.
“That’s the only way. This thing is really hot. It’s almost like the Evil Warding Sword Manual that the martial arts world was fighting for.”
Su Yun cursed in his heart. He checked Taobao again and realized that the cards he had customized had yet to be shipped. Clearly, it would take some time to make.
Helpless, Su Yun could only wash up and plan to rest early.
Not long after, she tidied up and walked out of the bathroom. Her phone rang at the right time.
It was Xu Jiajia.
“It’s so late. Why is she calling?”
Su Yun was puzzled, but he still hurriedly picked up the call.
A clear and playful voice came from the other end of the phone. “Su Yun, what are you doing?”
“I’m getting ready to rest.”
Xu Jiajia’s tone was slightly reproachful. “You didn’t answer my call. Did you not look at your phone? Hmph!”
Su Yun took the phone from his ear and saw that there were two missed calls on the notification window. They must have been from Xu Jiajia when he was showering.
Su Yun said apologetically, “I’m sorry, Jiajia. I went to take a shower just now.”
On the other end of the phone, Xu Jiajia sighed and said, “Alright, it’s like this every time.
“You didn’t call just to talk to me.”
“No, I’m here to inform you. Don’t forget that at the beginning of next month, everyone will be coming back one after another. There might be a class reunion soon. It depends on whether the class group will organize it.”
After Xu Jiajia’s reminder, Su Yun realized that in the WeChat class group, the counselor had released the latest announcement this afternoon.
Xu Jiajia reminded him again, “I’ve been a little busy with work recently, so I don’t have much time to call you every time. You should pay more attention and read more group messages.”
“Got it. What have you been doing recently? Why are you so busy?”
Xu Jiajia let out a long sigh. “Sigh! Don’t mention it. The company has recently received a big client who likes cultural relics. The boss has given us a mission to understand more about cultural relics. When the time comes, we can chat with the corresponding clients. I have no choice but to find connections in school and participate in a gathering of the cultural relics club to learn.”
Su Yun was a little surprised when he heard about the ancient relics club.
“Don’t tell me you’re talking about the ghost market gathering tomorrow afternoon in Burning Light Ancient City?”
“That’s right, that’s right. You know about it too? It seems like this club is quite famous. Then, it seems like I didn’t find the wrong connections…”
Su Yun did not expect such a coincidence. The two of them had the same destination, so Su Yun did not deliberately hide it. He briefly told them about himself and Professor Lü and invited them to travel together.
However, Su Yun did not say his true intentions. He only said that his ancestral items needed to be repaired.
Xu Jiajia was surprised and happy about this. She readily agreed to Su Yun’s invitation.
Initially, she did not have any acquaintances at this literary gathering. She was just going to join in the fun and learn some basic knowledge. She did not expect to have a companion now, and it was Su Yun. This time, she would not be bored!
“See you tomorrow, then.”
“Yes, yes. Good night, Su Yun.”
After that, the two of them set a time and agreed to meet near Yida Square tomorrow afternoon before hanging up.
The room fell silent again.
She was clearly very tired today, but the sleepiness from before was dispelled by the two calls.
Although all the problems seemed to be about to be resolved, Su Yun felt that something bad was about to happen.
After tossing and turning, he took out his phone and looked at the announcement in the class group chat. Su Yun fell into university campus memories again.
This was an announcement to inform all the students in the financial securities major to return to school to participate in the graduation defense.
“So soon?”
When he saw this announcement, it meant that Su Yun was not far from graduation.
At the same time, he had to say goodbye to his youth and school days.
Thinking about what had happened during this period of time, Su Yun felt like he was in a dream. First, he was reborn, then he discovered his special talent. Then, he encountered a series of events that overwhelmed him.
Although the process was full of ups and downs, it was no longer as calm as before.
It was already late, but Su Yun could not fall asleep. He heard insects chirping outside the window and the wind rising and falling.. In the end, he fell asleep..
