Cai Shuzhen didn't want Shen Yue to leave. It seemed that as long as Shen Yue was here, there was hope for Li Jixian.
Upon learning that Gao Jie had a lead on the spell caster, she hesitated before saying, "Alright then, Advisor Shen, you go see Ms. Gao first! If we can find the spell caster, we can negotiate with her, money is not an issue."
She added somewhat apologetically, "Would you like to have something to eat first?"
She knew Shen Yue had been working nonstop.
Shen Yue shook his head, feeling strangely unaffected by hunger or fatigue, perhaps as a result of being hypnotized by Shikong.
As he stepped outside and saw Gao Jie, he also noticed Hai Mingzhu waiting for him at the entrance. Shen Yue said, "Mingzhu, wait a bit longer, I need to have a chat with Ms. Gao!"
"But I had scheduled this in advance."
Hai Mingzhu had been waiting patiently for Shen Yue to come out, only to find he was as busy as the most sought-after gigolo, with no idle moment.
