Walking out of the photography studio, Liu Zixuan asked, "Why does this studio only take couple and family photos?"

"I really enjoy seeing others paired up. Don't you think watching so many loving couples or families together every day is a happy thing?" Luo Xi smiled.

Liu Zixuan snorted, "I don't feel happy; I feel like I'm involuntarily witnessing too much PDA every day!"

"You talk as if you're a single dog," Luo Xi confidently said, "I dare say you're not just seeing me!"

"Of course! How could a handsome guy like me belong to just one woman?" Liu Zixuan boasted.

"So, how many girlfriends do you have? Where do I rank?" Although Liu Zixuan's question was a joke, Luo Xi took it seriously, with a hint of expectation and jealousy in her eyes.

Seeing this, Liu Zixuan quickly turned his head away, "You have to focus when driving, let's save these topics for later!"

"Fine." Luo Xi rolled her eyes at him and said no more.

The two arrived at the pharmacy, and a middle-aged woman came out to greet them. She obviously knew Liu Zixuan and said warmly, "Mr. Liu, you're here! Please come inside."

Luo Xi was momentarily taken aback. As the landlord, shouldn't she be the more welcomed one?

Liu Zixuan gave Luo Xi a challenging smile and walked into the pharmacy. The shelves inside were almost empty, indicating they were ready to move out.

"Mr. Liu, Mr. Wen had already informed me that you wanted to rent this pharmacy. We've been waiting for you. Most things have been moved out except for these shelves, which you might need," the middle-aged woman said enthusiastically.

Liu Zixuan nodded, "Thank you so much, sister."

"No need to thank me. You're the savior of Ming Shui Road. You've helped us so much. We should be the ones to thank you."

The middle-aged woman then turned to Luo Xi, "Landlord, Mr. Liu is a great guy. You can rest assured renting this place to him!"

Luo Xi awkwardly smiled, "I'm assured, definitely assured."

She thought, I've already become his, so how could I not be assured? However, she was too shy to say this aloud.

Then, the middle-aged woman brought out the rental contract and signed it immediately. After completing all the formalities, she smiled at Liu Zixuan, "Well, Mr. Liu, you go ahead. I'll take my leave!"

"Sister, are you switching to another line of work, or are you moving?"

"We're planning to return to our hometown. Our parents are getting old, and we want to be closer to take care of them," the middle-aged woman explained and smiled at him, "Wishing you a booming business!"

"Thank you."

Watching the middle-aged woman leave, Liu Zixuan stretched, "This is my first stop in Celestial Capital!"

"What do you mean?" Luo Xi asked.

"You'll find out soon!" Liu Zixuan tweaked Luo Xi's nose, "It's still early, come with me to buy some stuff, let's get everything set up, the clinic will open tomorrow!"

"Okay."

Hand in hand, the two walked out of the pharmacy. Just as they were about to get in the car, they saw Mr. Wen slowly stop on his electric tricycle.

"Mr. Wen, went to get some supplies?" Liu Zixuan greeted.

"Yes, business is much better without Niu Lao Wu and his gang. The goods I got yesterday were sold out by the morning, so I took this opportunity to get more."

Mr. Wen paused for a moment and said, "But I just saw Niu Lao Wu on the next street!"

"He's on the next street?" Liu Zixuan raised his brow.

"Yeah, sitting on a wheelchair, pushed by two men into the Hui Bai Company. I don't know what he's up to!" Mr. Wen shook his head with a bitter smile, "I hope he doesn't come back to cause trouble on this street."

After saying this, Mr. Wen rode away to his fruit shop.

Liu Zixuan pondered for a moment, then his eyes lit up, "If that's the case, then it all makes sense!"

"What makes sense?" Luo Xi asked.

"Fan Xingkong came over earlier, intending to take over Niu Lao Wu's business, without knowing I was the one who scattered Niu Lao Wu's gang. That's why he wasn't afraid of me and even thought I was just a pretty boy!"

"But now that Niu Lao Wu has joined him, he probably knows my strength."

"So, do you think Fan Xingkong will back off now?" Luo Xi asked innocently. In her impression, Fan Xingkong didn't seem much stronger than Niu Lao Wu and his gang.

If he really understood Liu Zixuan's capabilities, Fan Xingkong might not cause trouble again, which would save a lot of hassle!

"Back off?"

Liu Zixuan smiled knowingly, "Faced with interests, no one backs down. Niu Lao Wu must have learned about me but couldn't beat me himself, so he chose to join Fan Xingkong!"

"In that case, Fan Xingkong can use the information Niu Lao Wu gives him for a formal showdown with me."

"Doesn't that mean you're in danger?"

Though innocent, Luo Xi was not stupid. Previously, Fan Xingkong didn't know Liu Zixuan well and would've lost in a confrontation. But now with Niu Lao Wu's support, he would definitely prepare thoroughly!

At that time, it would be a more deliberate targeting of Liu Zixuan.

Liu Zixuan ruffled Luo Xi's hair, "I don't feel it's dangerous; I just find it increasingly interesting. If it was just some clueless thugs, I wouldn't even bother competing with them. But now that they're starting to understand me, it means I can take them a bit more seriously!"

The reason for coming to Celestial Capital was for the Ghost Gate Needle and the Seven-Star Tomb!

This is Liu Zixuan's purpose, but more so to improve his strength and expand his knowledge. Right now, it would not be wise to confront those high and mighty figures directly.

So to get there, he had to start from these small factions. Only by making a name for himself in these streets could he have the capital to enter Celestial Tea House. By then, he would be closer to the Seven-Star Tomb!

If it were just some mindless hoodlums, it would negate the point of Liu Zixuan coming to Celestial Capital!

Luo Xi looked at Liu Zixuan's confident expression, pouting, "I really don't know what kind of past you have. If it were anyone else, they'd probably be scared, but you're all excited about it."

"Men are born to fight! Without battle, how could you become stronger?" Liu Zixuan said and got in the car, taking Luo Xi with him as they drove away.
