Besides, Luo Xianglan felt it would be good to seal the deal sooner rather than later.

That way, an outstanding woman like Chen Man Ni wouldn’t be able to slip through the Qin Family’s fingers.

Chen Man Ni was overjoyed, expecting Qin Tuo to agree in a heartbeat. But when she looked closely, she saw a hint of reluctance on his face.

”Qin Tuo, what is the meaning of this?”

The smile on Chen Man Ni’s face was replaced by a solemn expression.

Qin Tuo slowly explained,

”Manni, we aren’t married, after all. If you move in with me, it might not be good for your reputation if word gets out.”

That was true...

Chen Man Ni nodded, but then she smiled and said,

”It’s nothing, Qin Tuo. I’m going to marry you sooner or later anyway. Let people say what they want. As long as we’re happy together, that’s all that matters.”

Luo Xianglan, standing to the side, laughed happily again. The more she looked at Chen Man Ni, the more she liked what she saw.

But Qin Tuo’s brow was still furrowed.

”Manni, as the young lady of the Chen Family, is this really okay?”

In reality, it wasn’t that he was against Chen Man Ni living with him.

It was because he needed the Purple Gold Gourd for his cultivation. If Chen Man Ni lived with him, he would inevitably expose these things.

At this moment, Qin Tuo wasn’t ready for Chen Man Ni to know too much about the secrets of cultivation. It wouldn’t be good for her either.

However, seeing Qin Tuo refuse again and again, a look of displeasure appeared on Chen Man Ni’s face.

Luo Xianglan’s face fell as well.

”Qin Tuo, do you just not like me at all? Why else would you keep rejecting me?”

Being direct and outspoken, Chen Man Ni asked him to his face.

Qin Tuo could only give a wry smile and shake his head.

”Manni, what are you thinking? That’s not what I mean at all!”

”Hmph, that’s exactly what you mean!”

Chen Man Ni started acting petulant, turning her head away and refusing to even look at Qin Tuo.

Seeing that Chen Man Ni was angry, Luo Xianglan quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

”Manni, don’t listen to this silly boy. From now on, you’ll stay here. Don’t even think about leaving tonight. I’d like to see what he can do about it!”

Luo Xianglan patted Chen Man Ni’s shoulder, looking every bit the part of a protective mother hen.

Seeing this, Qin Tuo could only shake his head with a helpless smile.

After a few more comforting words from Luo Xianglan, Chen Man Ni’s tears finally turned to laughter.

”Thank you, Auntie. You’re the best to me, just like my own mother!”

Chen Man Ni’s sweet words were like honey, coaxing a hearty laugh out of Luo Xianglan.

Qin Tuo was completely at a loss. The future mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had already formed a united front. What could he possibly do?

Soon, Qin Hongguo had prepared several of his signature dishes.

Chen Man Ni and Qin Tuo ate, but they didn’t speak to each other.

Chen Man Ni finished eating quickly and took the initiative to clear the dishes in the kitchen, never once glancing at Qin Tuo from start to finish.

After dinner, Luo Xianglan quietly pulled Qin Tuo into a side room.

”Son, you’re so clueless! The girl has already been so forward, why are you still acting so reserved?”

But Qin Tuo shook his head and said seriously,

”Mom, it’s really not what you think.”

Then, Qin Tuo took out a Purple Gold Gourd from behind his back.

When Luo Xianglan saw the gourd, she was completely puzzled, unable to make heads or tails of it.

”Son, is this some trinket you picked up at an antique market?”

Qin Tuo shook his head and smiled.

”Mom, there’s medicine inside. This medicine can cure the root of your illness.”

A look of anticipation couldn’t help but appear in Luo Xianglan’s eyes!

This chronic illness had plagued her for a long time. When it flared up every night, her whole body felt an unbearable, needle-like pain, making it impossible to sleep.

Now, hearing that the root of her illness could be cured, she grew impatient.

Qin Tuo slowly opened the Purple Gold Gourd and gave it a little shake.

On the way back, he had already used the Celestial King Order to transform the Water of the Ice Spring inside into Spiritual Qi containing the properties of Spirit Medicine.

Although the temperature of this Spiritual Qi was also very low, it wouldn’t cause any physical harm to his mother, Luo Xianglan.

Luo Xianglan glanced at the Spiritual Qi inside the gourd and exclaimed in amazement.

”Son, this thing is amazing! Is it some kind of medicinal liquid?”

Qin Tuo smiled.

”Yes, but not entirely!”

At this point, the refined Spiritual Qi could be considered a panacea, far beyond what any ordinary medicine could compare to.

”Mom, lie down comfortably first. I’m going to eradicate the root of your illness.”

Luo Xianglan then obediently lay down.

Qin Tuo first channeled a stream of Spiritual Power into Luo Xianglan’s body to clear her meridians.

Then, he carefully guided the Spiritual Qi from the Purple Gold Gourd into Luo Xianglan’s body, shaping it into a thin thread.

Just then, Qin Hongguo also walked into the room. He was about to greet them when he saw the scene and was taken aback.

Qin Hongguo then understood that his son was treating his wife’s illness!

He immediately and carefully closed the door and left the room.

At that moment, a faint look of pain couldn’t help but appear on Luo Xianglan’s face.

But soon, her expression became very relaxed, even one of enjoyment.

As the Spiritual Qi entered her body, it removed all the impurities hidden within her meridians and acupoints.

Immediately after, a dense layer of filth was expelled from her pores, covering the surface of her skin.

With that, the Spiritual Qi was completely used up. Qin Tuo slowly exhaled a turbid breath and put away the Purple Gold Gourd.

About ten minutes later, Luo Xianglan slowly opened her eyes.

This time, she sat straight up with ease. Her back didn’t hurt, and her legs weren’t sore anymore!

”Wow, son, this is incredible! I feel like a whole new person! That dull, aching pain is completely gone!”

Seeing the excited Luo Xianglan, Qin Tuo also nodded and smiled with relief.

”Mom, the root of your illness has been completely removed. From now on, you won’t be troubled by it ever again.”

”Haha, good son! The happiest thing in my life was giving birth to such a wonderful, filial son like you!”

Luo Xianglan was also extremely emotional. She couldn’t help but hug her son and begin to cry.

For the past two years, she had been plagued by this illness, and only she knew the torturous agony it caused.

Now, it was as if she had been completely reborn and could start a new life.

At this moment, Qin Hongguo, who had been waiting anxiously outside the door, heard the commotion and rushed into the room.

When he saw what was happening, he immediately understood that his wife Luo Xianglan’s illness had been completely cured.

”Haha, this is wonderful, my dear! Our son is so capable!”

Qin Hongguo was also so happy his eyes filled with tears of excitement.

After two years of worry that had left his back stooped, it seemed to straighten considerably in that instant.
