Chapter 1218: Susu
Yang Fei, don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive. I'll report this to the higher-ups and let the organization handle it."
Wu Yuanzhong knew Yang Fei's personality and shouted anxiously.
Yang Fei gritted his teeth, grinding them together, and sneered coldly.
"The organization's department? By the time they act, the food will be cold, and the guy surnamed Chu might have run away."
He spoke in a deep voice, "Chief, I know it's not easy for you. Don't worry, this is purely a personal vendetta and has nothing to do with the Hidden Dragon."
After speaking, he didn't wait for Wu Yuanzhong's repeated calls and hung up the phone.
Yang Fei strode away, and at this moment, a thirty-something nurse emerged from the corner.
She watched Yang Fei's distant figure thoughtfully.
Then, the nurse looked around, seeing no one, took out her phone, sent a text message, and quickly left.
Yang Fei had just left the hospital entrance when a cute little girl stopped him.
The little girl was about seven or eight years old, holding an invitation in her hand, and handed it to Yang Fei.
"Big brother, someone asked me to wait here and give you this."
Yang Fei was slightly stunned, tightened his grip on the bullet in his hand, and took the invitation from the little girl.
Yang Fei was almost certain that this invitation was the work of the Chu family.
However, the opponent's power still somewhat alarmed Yang Fei.
This indicated that everything Yang Fei did was being watched by someone from the Chu family.
And every scene in the hospital just now did not escape the eyes of the Chu family.
Yang Fei weighed the invitation in his hand, found nothing unusual, and then opened the gilded invitation.
The invitation had an antique charm, with lines of elegant Slim Gold script, emitting a rich aura.
"A gentleman comes from afar, and I yearn for him. On a moonlit night, let's boil wine and drink to our hearts' content."
He smelled the subtle fragrance of a woman in the air, and the Slim Gold script was ancient and lively, with ink strokes elegantly placed, full of charm.
He looked at the signature, and it was from Yiyun Studio: Susu.
Although Yang Fei didn't often visit the Capital City, he was aware of the fame of Yiyun Studio.
He smiled faintly, "So Yiyun Studio is making a move. It's a good place; I should go and see for myself."
The Capital City's Yiyun Studio was a renowned place among the noble circles of the city.
Yiyun Studio was a quadrangular courtyard, with the front gatehouse turned into a doorway room.
Inside, there were some extremely rare antique items, porcelains, jewelry, and literati paintings and calligraphy.
Yiyun Studio had Four Extremes, the first being antiques. It's said that any cultural relic appraised by Old Master Wang from Yiyun Studio immediately increased in value a hundredfold, and was guaranteed to be genuine.
The second was literati paintings and calligraphy, including many authentic and unique works that were only available at Yiyun Studio.
Legend has it that a Sinology master from Huaqing University once respectfully performed the disciple's ritual in the Yiyun Studio courtyard for three days just to borrow a unique book from Yiyun Studio for study.
The third was Yiyun Studio's wine and vegetarian dishes, which were the best in the Capital City.
Yiyun Studio's fine wines were all renowned products of the wine world, unknown and unseen by ordinary people.
The fourth extreme was a woman, and that woman was Susu.
Susu was reputed for her dual talents, captivating beauty, and mastery of music, chess, calligraphy, and painting.
The nationally famous calligraphy and inscriptions from Yiyun Studio all originated from Susu.
This independent woman seemed to float out from the Book of Songs, full of spiritual energy, graceful and uninvolved with the mundane world like the Nine Heavens Fairy.
Susu's name spread throughout the Capital City, and in some respects, her fame was no less than that of the superstars in the entertainment industry.
CCTV once invited Susu to participate in the variety show "Huaxia's Good Poetry and Verses," and Susu reluctantly appeared in one episode.
As a result, that episode of "Huaxia's Good Poetry and Verses" had a skyrocketing viewership, reaching over two hundred million online views.
It could be said that no other superstar, except the Moon Goddess Xu Zhiqing, could match such fame.
Yang Fei wandered leisurely in Iron Cap Alley while reading the information about Yiyun Studio on his phone, which included more details about Susu.
This information was secretly sent to Yang Fei by a colleague from the Hidden Dragon Nine Divisions without Wu Yuanzhong's knowledge.
If the Hidden Dragon Nine Divisions were a longsword, then the Evil Dragon was its sharpest tip.
The Evil Dragon had been ambushed and suffered heavy losses, causing all the soldiers of the Hidden Dragon Nine Divisions to unite in hatred against their enemies.
However, the Chu family was not easily provoked either.
Without evidence, no one dared to risk arresting Chu Liang. It was a huge catastrophe that no one wanted to face, so they could only secretly assist Yang Fei in investigating the Chu family.
Just as Yang Fei finished reading the intel on his phone, he noticed a small courtyard on the left side of the alley.
The courtyard's gatehouse faced the street, with an antique sign above: "Yiyun Studio."
The gatehouse was filled with countless jewels, jades, antiques, and paintings and calligraphy, dazzling and brilliant, almost blinding.
Yang Fei had no understanding of these highbrow items, but he was also enchanted by the elegant and unparalleled decor inside Yiyun Studio.
A flute and a zither, along with jade and emeralds, were placed on rosewood shelves or displayed on wall platforms, all perfectly arranged and poetically harmonious.
Yang Fei entered Yiyun Studio, staring at a lady's portrait on the wall in a daze, thinking to himself.
"Modern beauties are indeed more appealing; what meaning is there when legs aren't even shown?"
The shopkeeper of Yiyun Studio was a goatee, green-robed elder wearing thick glasses.
At this moment, he was studying a cat's eye jade ring through a magnifying glass.
The elder was looking left and right, up and down, appearing extremely interested, as if he hadn't even noticed Yang Fei at all.
Yang Fei didn't understand antiques, but he could tell that the row of treasures and jades were indeed not street vendible items, though how much was real or fake was hard to say.
Yang Fei lightly coughed twice, and the green-robed elder raised his head, glanced at Yang Fei, but then lowered his head again to continue studying the cat's eye jade ring, as if completely indifferent.
Yang Fei had no choice but to cough again, while gently placing the gilded invitation on the table.
The green-robed elder squinted at the invitation, then looked up at Yang Fei, his gaze calm and collected.
"Are you Yang Fei?"
His question was quite rude, but Yang Fei didn't mind, nodding lightly.
The green-robed elder seemed somewhat surprised, "I didn't expect you to be this young."
"There aren't many youngsters these days whom Miss would personally invite."
Yang Fei chuckled, gently cupping his hand in salute. "You're flattering me, flattering me. But I wonder where Susu is?"
The green-robed elder's gaze was once again drawn to the cat's eye jade ring, as if his entire mind was about to fall into it.
Yang Fei, helpless, had to walk toward the back door of the doorway room.
Just as he reached the back door, the green-robed elder straightened up.
"Miss has been waiting for you for a long time; she's in the back courtyard."
Yang Fei turned around, nodded slightly, pushed open the back door, and walked into the back courtyard.
