Chapter 1399: Chapter 1386: High Heels, Numb Legs

Although he already guessed the answer, Luofeng still pretended to ask, "What happened? Was there an accident, did someone get hurt?"

"It’s not a safety accident. The construction site unearthed something strange. Everyone says it’s Tai Sui. You’re pretty knowledgeable, why don’t you go take a look? Your girlfriend’s in news, right? She can come along too!" Luo Lin said.

"Is that so? Then wait a moment, make sure everyone protects the site properly." Luofeng said.

Actually, Luofeng had already secretly planned every detail for site protection flawlessly.

After hanging up his dad’s call, Luofeng immediately made another call.

The person he called was Li Wanzhong.

A botanist expert.

He was a professor Luofeng met after the incidents with privet berries and peach gum.

"Dear, our construction site discovered something called Tai Sui. Should we go take a look? You could also do a news report." Luofeng said.

Bai Ningbing instantly became interested and said, "Tai Sui, that’s great! It’s definitely a newsworthy topic!"

After all, whenever something is unearthed at a construction site.

Such topics are always popular on the internet, with high discussion rates.

But Bai Ningbing added, "Is it a real Tai Sui?"

In the past, there were news articles online about discovering Tai Sui.

But after analysis, they turned out to be discarded silicone dolls, left in water too long until moss grew on them.

Bai Ningbing read about that news.

"I don’t know the specifics, we may as well check it out, right?" Luofeng said.

"Yeah, let’s go take a look then!" Bai Ningbing nodded.

Once Bai Ningbing and Luofeng arrived at the location.

Li Wanzhong, the botany expert from Shanghai, had already arrived.

Luo Lin was also present.

"Dad, what’s going on?" Luofeng again feigned inquiry.

"How would I know? That expert over there is arranged by you, right? I’ve already greeted him and we’re just having tea waiting for you!" Luo Lin said.

"Yes, a previously met expert, very proficient in his field!" Luofeng nodded.

Bai Ningbing greeted her future father-in-law politely.

After that, Luofeng took Bai Ningbing to find Li Wanzhong.

"Professor Li, what’s the current situation?" Luofeng asked.

Li Wanzhong quickly put down his teacup, and greeted Luofeng, "Hello, Boss Luo!"

After exchanging pleasantries, Li Wanzhong began explaining, "First, we found Tai Sui; second, this Tai Sui should be light and oxygen-averse, so we need to temporarily seal the excavation site, taking just some surrounding soil for analysis."

"What exactly is Tai Sui? I’ve heard the term often but honestly don’t understand." Luofeng feigned inquiry.

"It’s basically a fleshy lingzhi." Li Wanzhong said.

"A fleshy lingzhi, like the folklore one that supposedly has numerous benefits if eaten?" Luofeng questioned.

"According to the record in the Compendium of Materia Medica, fleshy lingzhi does have many documented effects, including longevity!" Li Wanzhong said, "However, modern scientific study shows variability among myxomycetes, so for safety, collecting them is preferable over consuming them."

"Simply put, every fleshy lingzhi is different; one may be medicinal but another may not and might even be toxic." Li Wanzhong said.

"But after checking this Tai Sui, it’s a rare golden color and holds high collectible and ornamental value. If you’re collecting it, you’ll need an aquarium." Li Wanzhong said.

Then he took out his phone.

Showing Luofeng a picture of the golden Tai Sui.

A bit larger than a basketball.

A sine wave-like irregular circle.

More like a sponge.

Rather than looking like a fungus or mushroom.

Except it lacked metallic luster, it might’ve been mistaken for a gold nugget.

"Since it holds collectible value, shall we have it collected?" Luofeng instructed.

"Okay, Boss Luo, we’ll handle it properly and conduct further research to verify if it’s toxic or has other issues." Li Wanzhong said.

"Sure. Also, when it’s being collected, could my girlfriend do a news report? It shouldn’t affect anything, right?" Luofeng asked.

"Of course, no problem. Just don’t let Tai Sui be exposed to oxygen for long." Li Wanzhong said.

Luofeng looked at Bai Ningbing, "What do you think? Since it’s a genuine Tai Sui, reporting is fine, right?"

"Yes, of course. Can I interview Professor Li?" Bai Ningbing said.

Luofeng nodded, "Of course you can!"

Li Wanzhong also nodded, "I accept this lady’s interview."

Luo Lin soon found Luofeng and said, "Son, this thing indeed has many rumored benefits, but as the professor said, variability exists among individuals; it might be toxic, we should be cautious."

Luofeng nodded, "I know, dad, but I think you can store it at the old house in Qili Bay. Nobody lives there, it can provide a dim environment and has onsite security systems."

"Yeah, that sounds appropriate!" Luo Lin nodded.

.......

Around five o’clock in the afternoon, in Ningbing’s house living room, Bai Ningbing leaned against Luofeng’s leg, playing on her phone.

While Luofeng was looking through the investment company’s financial report.

"Luofeng, Modu TV Station has edited the news, do you want to watch?" Bai Ningbing suddenly said.

Because of the issues with professional attire and high heels earlier.

So in the afternoon, staying at home.

Both of them were peacefully together.

Just occasional kisses and playful teasing.

The first news piece was naturally the opening ceremony.

The second news piece was the uncovering of the golden Tai Sui.

Seeing Bai Ningbing’s mature professional woman charm.

Made Luofeng think of Tangya’s bank uniform.

Certain mature genes suddenly surfaced at this moment.

"Very nice, my dear looks good in anything, truly captivating!" Luofeng praised.

After speaking, he wrapped Bai Ningbing in his arms.

Bai Ningbing blushed, "It was like this in the morning, aren’t you ever satisfied? Mom’s about to get off work, don’t go crazy!"
