The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 799: Chapter 799: Harem Stabilized

Thud thud...

The long-awaited Meridian Passage Elixir finally fell from a small opening at the bottom of the Alchemy Furnace and landed into the porcelain bowl that Lin Tian had prepared in advance.

The sound was crisp and pleasant. Hearing this, Lin Tian couldn’t help but crack a silly smile.

”One, two...” Eventually, twelve pills fell into the porcelain bowl.

Lin Tian eagerly picked up the bowl, widening his eyes to examine the pills inside.

These Meridian Passage Elixirs were only as thick as a pinky. They were brown throughout, with a delicate white pill aura emanating from the surface, resembling chocolate balls that made one want to pop a few into their mouth.

Lin Tian reached out and touched one, drawing in a sharp breath immediately. It was still hot, and just touching it had already reddened his fingers.

In the following moments, Lin Tian extinguished the fire still burning in the Alchemy Furnace and stepped out of the messy room.

Since entering this room, he hadn’t left in five days. Even his meals were brought to him by Yan Xinrou.

He first returned to his room to freshen up, then took two Meridian Passage Elixirs and went to the living room.

The living room of this villa was spacious; even the slightest increase in the television volume would cause an echo inside.

Before Lin Tian arrived in the living room, he had already heard the voices of three women in conversation.

Yan Xinrou, Xu Ning’an, and... Bai Shishi.

Lin Tian suddenly smacked his forehead, remembering something.

A few days ago, he had promised Bai Shishi to return to his hometown to bring his parents over. Now with his mother-in-law suddenly appearing and so many wounded, this matter might have to be postponed again.

But since he had already promised Bai Shishi, Lin Tian was starting to feel a bit of a headache.

”Hehe... everyone’s here?” Lin Tian stood awkwardly in front of the group of women, and suddenly his gaze landed on a person sitting at the corner of the sofa — Mei Ruyan! She was watching Lin Tian with big almond eyes that seemed to be smiling yet not.

As for the other women, they looked at Lin Tian with equally strange expressions.

Could it be strange? Everyone was in this house because of one man, what kind of situation was this? And that absent guy was not even there!

If it weren’t for Bai Shishi and Yan Xinrou knowing each other from before and having some cooperation between them, it would have been awkward to death.

Lin Tian suddenly felt that it wouldn’t be so terrifying even if the Great Elder were standing in front of him!

”Lin Tian, have you finished making your medicine?” Yan Xinrou skipped other issues and asked the question she was most concerned about.

”Yes, it’s finished.”

Saying this, Lin Tian’s heart was filled with various emotions. Closing his eyes, his mind was filled with scene after scene that had happened between him and Liou Qingcheng. If it weren’t for that Jade Pendant, he would have been separated from her by the heavens and earth by now, right?

”Is there anything I need to do?” Yan Xinrou’s voice trembled slightly. She had waited too long for this day.

Lin Tian smiled and said, ”Mom, there’s no need to be so nervous. I’ll make sure you get back an energetic daughter in a little while. You don’t have to do anything, just wait here.”

”Alright then, I’ll leave it to you,” Yan Xinrou said.

”Okay. I’ll check Ruyan’s pulse first,” Lin Tian said.

Yan Xinrou had no reservations about this and nodded, ”That’s appropriate, Miss Mei has been awake for two days and seems to be recovering well.”

Lin Tian nodded and walked to the corner of the sofa, sitting down beside Mei Ruyan.

The two looked into each other’s eyes, as if they had countless words to say.

”Fool... don’t you know you’re just an ordinary person? In a situation like that, you shouldn’t have risked yourself to save me and ended up like this.” Lin Tian said in a reproachful tone, but the gentle look in his eyes betrayed him; he was just feigning anger.

”I...” Mei Ruyan opened her mouth as if to say something but found herself at a loss for words.

This seemed to be the first time Lin Tian had shown so much concern for her, and in front of so many people at that.

Thinking about this made Mei Ruyan feel a bit awkward. However, there was no expression on her face, so others couldn’t tell what she was thinking.

Lin Tian didn’t mind what she was thinking. He simply took her hand and checked her pulse.

A wisp of Spiritual Qi flowed gently from Lin Tian’s fingers, penetrating Mei Ruyan’s body through her pores.

Then, just like a stone sinking into the ocean, that wisp of Spiritual Qi disappeared without a trace.

This meant there was still Spiritual Qi in Mei Ruyan’s Sea of Qi. Lin Tian wasn’t sure whether this was good or bad news. Other than that, Mei Ruyan’s body was essentially normal.

”You’re recovering well, but you’ll need to eat more foods that boost your Qi and blood over the next few days. Also, avoid any strenuous activities, and even if you go back to Qiansimei as the CEO, make sure to watch your diet and rest.”

”Understood,” Mei Ruyan replied succinctly.

”Don’t worry, Lin Tian. As long as Miss Mei is here, I’ll take good care of her. As for work, there’s no rush,” Yan Xinrou said, as she indeed had been doing these past two days. Of course, she wasn’t the one cooking; she had hired a nanny... Her cooking skills were only appropriate for Liou Zhengming, Liou Qingcheng, and Lin Tian.

”Thank you, Yan,” Mei Ruyan nodded towards Yan Xinrou. Even after two days, she still didn’t understand why Yan Xinrou had suddenly become so kind to her; was this the same formidable businesswoman?

Bai Shishi joked, ”Ruyan, don’t go back to work for now. Rest a little longer so you can earn more money for me later.”

”That’s right, I’m still recovering and it’s quite boring, so Mei, stay here and keep me company,” Xu Ning’an said with a sweet smile.

Seeing these women getting along so well, Lin Tian felt relieved. If they had gotten into a fight, he really wouldn’t have had any idea how to handle it.

In a way, the harem seemed a bit more stable!

”Mom, I’ll go check on Qingcheng now,” Lin Tian said.

”Go, go. Once she’s awake, I’ll make you both a feast. The Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Soup!” Yan Xinrou waved her hand.

Lin Tian almost tripped. The Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Soup again?

Just the thought of it made Lin Tian feel a bit nauseous. He quickly sped up, almost fleeing as he left.

...

Pushing open the door to Liou Qingcheng’s room, Lin Tian walked in softly.

At this moment, Liou Qingcheng looked like a sleeping kitten, very quiet, beautiful, and cute.

But her pale, pretty face was heart-wrenching to see.

Lin Tian took down the nutrient drip hanging nearby, then gently lifted her body and propped her up against the headboard. Afterward, he gently placed the still-warm Meridian Passage Elixir into Liou Qingcheng’s mouth.

Before Lin Tian could even help her swallow it, the pill melted into liquid right in her mouth, sliding down her throat.
