Chapter 80

"Miss Chu!" He Dong and Chu Qian met in a very grandly decorated office.

"Master Dong!" Chu Qian nodded politely at He Dong.

"No, I'm not a master, Miss Chu, just call me He Dong!" He Dong knew the true identity of the somewhat cold and beautiful woman in front of him from Wang Xuewu, so he didn't dare to be presumptuous.

"Alright, I'll call you He Dong, and you don't have to call me Miss Chu, that's too formal. You can call me Chu Qian or... Qian Qian!" Chu Qian said generously.

"Chu... Qian! I wonder what you need from me?" He Dong still felt a lot of pressure when facing Chu Qian.

"He Dong, can you sell me a few of the diamonds you have?" Chu Qian straightforwardly stated her purpose.

"Well... How many do you need?" He Dong was a bit hesitant. These diamonds were specially prepared for Wang Qiang's family jewelry company. Although the diamonds were virtually inexhaustible due to the presence of Gold, it wasn't easy to find diamonds the size of pigeon eggs; most were the size of soybeans.

"I only need three. My best friend is about to have a birthday, and I haven't found a suitable gift for her. When I saw the diamonds you took out today, I was really moved, so I want to buy three from you!" Chu Qian explained honestly.

"Actually, these diamonds aren't all mine. If it's just three, I can make the decision!" He Dong nodded, but he didn't make a full commitment. After all, the appearance of these diamonds alone was already quite sensational, and nearly twenty diamonds together would be more than just sensational. Therefore, He Dong didn't claim ownership of all the diamonds.

"I only need three!" However, Chu Qian clearly didn't care about the ownership of the diamonds; her goal was to buy three diamonds.

"Alright!" He Dong didn't say anything more and directly took out the diamonds, letting Chu Qian choose freely.

During this period, He Dong had tried to find many different metals for Gold to eat, and finally discovered that the color and quality of the diamonds produced varied depending on the type of metal Gold consumed. The most valuable were the colored diamonds produced by consuming gold. In the end, Chu Qian picked out three of the only colored diamonds.

"He Dong, I owe you a favor!" After signing a check to He Dong and putting the diamonds in a brocade box, Chu Qian said happily.

"Don't be so formal! Look, I'm making money, right?" He Dong showed the check in his hand with a smile.

"The three I chose are the top-grade colored diamonds, much more valuable than ordinary diamonds, and the price you gave me is even cheaper than ordinary diamonds. I know what you've done!" Chu Qian pointed out directly.

"Ha ha!" Since Chu Qian had already said so much, He Dong's modesty would have seemed insincere, so he just smiled.

After the transaction was completed, He Dong said goodbye to Chu Qian. Being with her always made him feel suppressed, which he found very uncomfortable.

When he appeared at the military enthusiasts' club again, He Dong received star-like treatment. If it weren't for Wang Xuewu and He Xi blocking the crowd, he wouldn't have known how to handle it.

This military enthusiasts' club was indeed very charming. In the following days, He Dong often appeared there, practicing his shooting, working out, and then having a drink at the bar.

During this time, he met many people, but he never saw Zhou Fu'an again. It was said that Zhou Fu'an was still in the hospital, apparently with a minor liver problem. Cheng Tianlei wasn't doing well either; he was directly placed under house arrest, and Cheng's entertainment company also suffered some impact.

The bar in the military enthusiasts' club was of very high caliber. The people who could enter here were either rich or powerful. The occasional information they revealed, if heard by astute businessmen, would be a great opportunity to make a fortune. He Dong had heard a lot of information, but none of it was what he was interested in. The diamonds provided by Gold had already made him less interested in money.

However, some other information caught his attention. For example, now, he was pulling a person who looked familiar but whom he didn't know, to ask a question.

"Brother, you just said that the son of the chairman of Wang Group is sick with a strange illness?" He Dong frowned and looked at the teenager in front of him, who was about eighteen or nineteen years old.

"Ah! Brother Dong! Hello, hello, you're my idol! That day, you drank twelve cups of three-shot drinks in a row, it was really amazing. Brother Dong, can you tell me how you did it?" He Dong didn't know the teenager's name, but the teenager recognized He Dong and seemed to admire him a lot. When he saw He Dong speaking to him, his face was full of excitement, and he started talking non-stop.

"Brother, you just said that the son of the chairman of Wang Group is sick with a strange illness, is that true?" He Dong forced himself to suppress his impatience and continued to ask.

"Ah! Brother Dong, my name is Chen Xiaoguang, just call me Xiaoguang." The teenager's excited expression didn't fade.

"Xiaoguang, I want to ask you, is it Wang Qiang who is sick?" In Tianyang City, the chairman of Wang Group had only one son, Wang Qiang, who was his good friend. However, He Dong was puzzled because he had spoken to Wang Qiang on the phone just a few days ago, and now he was sick?

"Yes, many people know about it!" This time, the teenager finally understood what He Dong was asking.

"Xiaoguang, can you tell me more about it?" He Dong continued to ask.

"Of course I can!" Being able to talk more with his idol made Xiaoguang even more excited.

As Xiaoguang spoke, He Dong's frown deepened. Wang Qiang's illness was indeed strange. He suddenly fell into a coma without any warning, and no matter how much they called him, he wouldn't wake up. No matter how many tests they did, they couldn't find anything wrong. In the end, he was lying in the intensive care unit of the First People's Hospital of Tianyang City, and it had been three days so far.

"How could this be?" He Dong muttered to himself, puzzled.

"Many people say Wang Qiang is possessed!" Xiaoguang looked around and said cautiously.

"Possessed?" He Dong frowned tightly. If it were before, he would have dismissed the idea of possession, but now, he didn't dare to make a hasty conclusion.

After learning that Wang Qiang was in trouble, He Dong lost all interest in drinking. He quickly left the military enthusiasts' club and drove to the hospital where Wang Qiang was staying.
