Chapter 053 A curse of a lifetime 2
…
Jisoo could not help but spew the mouthful of tea she was drinking upon hearing those unexpected words from the handsome guy before her. She could not help but look at him with suspicion. Then grab the tissue on the side and handed it to him.
She did not have that apologetic smile on her face as she seems to look at him like he was some kind of pervert.
"Mister Tang, it seems that your words are a bit inappropriate…" she said but Arthur suddenly lifted his hand to stop her.
"What you're thinking is not what I mean… I just mean that everything I have will be yours…" he suddenly stopped and then thinks.
"That is still not right… What I mean is, I can give you anything you like… that's it… that's what I mean…" Arthur said with a smile.
But in truth, his heart is still pounding rapidly. He did not know what he was saying and is feeling a bit confused as to why he blurted out those words.
He could not take a handle on things in his mind. Which made him feel worried and at the same time annoyed at himself.
He is Arthur Tang, the business magnate that could topple and face anything on his path. Nothing could stand in his way if he so wanted to have it.
But in the face of the woman before him, he did not understand why his composure is starting to crumble.
"She must be a witch that is trying to seduce me…" he thought as he looks at Jisoo, now with vigilance in his gaze.
Seeing the rich emotion on the man's face, Jisoo could not help but enjoy the sight. She did not expect that the cold and aloof man would have this kind of attitude before her. Well, in her time as a sect master, she had seen such expressions but what is new is the expression of suspicion in his eyes.
He even seems to be wary of her this time.
If she could laugh she would have already laughed at this point in time, but she could only stifle her laughter and instead show a faint smile on her face.
But when she did this, she noticed the man averting his gaze from her with a tinge of blush on his face.
"How cute…" she could not help but blurt out.
The two of them were stunned when they heard her words.
Jisoo suddenly blushed and also averted her gaze from him.
"Umm… Anyway, I need to see your grandfather first before promising anything…" Jisoo diverted the conversation which slowly turned to be awkward.
As she looks outside the window, she focuses on calming her heart at this time.
After a while of silence between the two, Arthur Tang opened his mouth.
"If you have time now, I can take you home…" he said.
But then suddenly froze.
"I mean… I can take you to my home…" he corrected his words with a hint of worry as he looks at the young woman.
Jisoo just froze and her heart skipped a beat.
How could she not know those words and the implication of such words when she likes watching those dramas on TV?
The two then awkwardly left the restaurant and hopped in Arthur's car.
When the two left the restaurant, a few people followed behind with their cameras on hand.
"This is a great scoop! Who would have known that the king of the business world in our country is dating such a beauty?" one of the men with a camera said with a sly smile on his face.
"Hehe… That woman should not be of common birth, I think I should dig that one up…" another one said while checking his shots.
However, as soon as he did, he showed a flabbergasted expression on his face.
This is because his high-speed and high-spec camera has worked against him. The picture of Jisoo is blurry as if there is a dense smoke covering her whole being.
When he checked the picture on the screen, he could not help but frown and a cold shiver began to run down his spine.
"Is… is she a… a ghost?" the two of them suddenly blurted out.
But then the other one took out his phone and checked it. He then noticed that everything is fine. With the picture, he got from his phone.
What they did not know is that when Jisoo's emotion got riled up so did the density of her Reiki aura covering her body.
So that's why she would look like a ghost.
If a Reiki cultivator like her could have seen her at that time, they would see the strong fluctuation of the aura around her body.
As the two checked their camera, they suddenly stopped as a couple of black-suited men suddenly surrounded them.
"Get the cameras and any recording device…" the leader said with a cold tone.
The two froze on the spot.
Then after that, the man called someone and reported.
"We have taken care of that matter…"
He then returns the cameras to the two but without the storage disk and with the pictures already erased.
How could the two fight back at those black-suited men? They still value their lives and their jobs, so they could only lower their heads.
…
Jisoo watches outside the window the beautiful scenery as the car drove to the outskirts of the city. She noticed that they seem to have reached a gate with a wide and spacious lawn before them. And from afar she could see a 3-floored late European style Manor.
Arthur got off the phone and nodded his head. He could not help but steal a glance at the beauty beside him as she looks outside the car window.
The low sun rays still made her beautiful visage look picturesque and stunning. No matter how many times he sees her face, he could not help but would always admire her beauty and the temperament she is exuding.
He could not deny that he is not only attracted by her beauty but also by her aloft and mysterious temperament and aura.
He had seen many beautiful women in his life as a tycoon and as a cultivator. But he had not felt such attraction as he is feeling right now.
"If this is a spell, I would not want to wake from this…" he thought.
But then suddenly shook his head as he realized something.
Then he looks at Jisoo with vigilance once again.
"Damn it… is she casting her spell again?" he thought as he forcefully diverted his gaze away from her.
Jisoo could see his reaction and could not help but laugh inside her mind.
As the two arrive at the Manor, they were greeted by the maid and the butler of the house.
When those maids saw the handsome young master, they could not help but ogle at his handsome face. Many of them would always fantasize that the young master would look favorably upon them. If they could win his smile, then they would already be contented.
But then suddenly their faces froze when from another door a fairy alighted from the car.
"Oh, wow…" a maid subconsciously said.
The male servants could not help but look at Jisoo with a stunned expression.
They might have seen many beauties before, but have not seen such a special kind of beauty... something that does not belong to this world.
The two did not mind the gazes given to them by the servants and continued walking to the second floor of the house.
As soon as they reached the door, a white-gowned doctor walked out and greeted them.
"Young master Tang… your grandfather is feeling a bit well today, you can come in…" the middle-aged doctor said while showing a smile.
"You've worked hard Uncle Felipe…" Arthur said while patting the shoulder of the middle-aged doctor.
The doctor has been employed by their family and is considered as Tang's family doctor. He and his team are the ones responsible for the well-being of the Tangs.
Felipe Fu is a renowned doctor in the country and abroad. He is a well-known heart surgeon, and is sought after when it comes to dangerous and hard heart surgery is concerned.
His team is consisting of famous modern and ancient doctors which help with the condition of Arthur's grandfather, Bernard Tang.
"This is Doctor Sung of VD hospital and she is my friend whom I wanted to introduce to my grandfather." Arthur introduced Jisoo to the middle-aged man.
When Doctor Fu saw Jisoo, a knowing look appears on his face.
"It seems that the spring has finally come to the young Arthur's heart…" he thought while showing a knowing smile.
Seeing the smile of the doctor, Arthur could not help but shake his head. But he did not mind the misunderstanding.
The two enter the room which looks luxurious and clean. Although the medical instrument ruined the aesthetic of the room, one could still feel the comfort and luxury inside the room.
As soon as Jisoo sets foot inside the room, she could already see the true problem plaguing the old man who looks like a bag of bones lying on the bed.
From one look, one would ask the question of how the old man is still able to survive in that condition.
But for Jisoo she could already tell the reason how.
Arthur gave Jisoo a look and she nodded as she was about to walk beside the bed.
She has to pretend to check the old man so that Arthur would trust the things that she would say or do. Plus she also needs to run her Reiki inside the old man's body to determine the extent of the damage done to his old body in these 2 years.
As she stepped beside the bed, she could see the eyes of the old man glued to her.
"Grandpa… she is Jisoo… my friend…"
Upon hearing this, the old man smiled and nodded.
Jisoo extended her hand and was about to grab the hand of the old man when she was interrupted by a shriek.
