188: Extra enthusiastic

“Didn’t you just save Wan’er? You’ve already helped me a lot, this is my thank-you gift to you, you must take it.”

Chen Tianming had a hint of a smile in his eyes when he said this.

The first medicine was for Guan Yue’s illness.

The second one was specially prepared for him.

Poisoning someone, the money should certainly come from him.

Of course, Ding Xiaoyu couldn't see these thoughts.

Her beautiful eyes were slightly curved at this moment, like the moon in the sky.

“Thank you so much, if we have a chance to meet again in the future, I must thank you properly.”

After speaking, Ding Xiaoyu took the items and quickly left.

The owner of the pharmacy also hurried to Chen Tianming's side.

“This second medicine is a serious deflating agent. If these two things are mixed together, the person’s body might be ruined.”

The owner looked at Chen Tianming worriedly, “Chen Shao, who are you planning to deal with?”

Chen Tianming, however, looked completely at ease.

“Of course, it’s the person who’s going to take the medicine.”

These words were just as the owner said.

It was indeed deflating.

But he added another herb to it, to stabilize the medicinal properties.

When first consumed, it would not only not deplete the internal qi in the body, but would instead lead to a significant increase.

However, in the long run, it would damage the body.

Guan Yue must be recuperating at home now; once he recovers, he will surely set his sights on Qu Wan'er again, and perhaps even retaliate against him for the previous incident.

This was a good opportunity for him to catch him in one fell swoop.

Just thinking about it, Chen Tianming felt a surge of triumph in his heart.

He soon went home.

Chen Tianming kept his word, and that evening, the four of them indeed appeared in a high-end restaurant.

Qu Wan'er's eyes were almost not enough; her big eyes looked around, wishing she could engrave everything in her mind.

Qu Huaixuan merely smiled at her adorable appearance, without criticizing her.

While Qu Wan'er was happy, Chen Tianming whispered to Qu Huaixuan.

“Don’t worry, that person will show up again soon. I promise to deal with him so thoroughly that he’ll never dare to covet Wan’er again.”

Upon hearing this, Qu Huaixuan's eyes lit up.

“Is there news?”

Chen Tianming did not answer directly, but instead gently reassured her.

“Wan’er, this child is very pitiful; meeting you is already the greatest fortune. I can’t say much else, but I can guarantee that you two will live a peaceful life in the future.”

Qu Huaixuan was incredibly excited.

Isn't this the outcome she had been hoping for?

Looking at Chen Tianming’s gentle eyes, she felt an indescribable emotion in her heart. She slightly stood on her tiptoes and pressed a kiss on Chen Tianming’s face.

“You two are really something, there are others here.”

Wan Yue reminded them from the side, a hint of pink showing through her fair complexion.

Meanwhile, Qu Wan'er, as if she had discovered something extraordinary, immediately leaned in.

“Mom and Dad, are you kissing?”

The little girl's words instantly made Qu Huaixuan even more embarrassed, and she quickly urged Qu Wan'er to go aside.

Chen Tianming, on the other hand, pulled Qu Huaixuan into his arms and kissed her on the face again.

“Yes.”

The little girl’s eyes quickly widened in surprise.

After a burst of laughter, the atmosphere was just right.

And at this moment, in a courtyard in the back mountain.

When Ding Xiaoyu pushed the door open, the person inside was concentrating.

After slowly exhaling a turbid breath, Guan Yue’s face turned pale.

Although his injuries had mostly healed after these days of recuperation, his qi and blood could not be fully replenished.

This feeling was truly unpleasant.

Guan Yue’s hands also unconsciously clenched into fists.

“Just being hit by him once last time injured me to this extent. If my qi and blood can’t be replenished, and I encounter that person again, I’m afraid I won’t even have a chance to escape.”

The moment Guan Yue recalled Chen Tianming’s eyes looking at him, he felt a chill all over his body.

To retrieve the lost cauldron, he had to take another risk!

“Still no good?”

Seeing Guan Yue's increasingly grim expression, Ding Xiaoyu's heart also tensed up.

“Although the wound has healed, I can’t fully consolidate the scattered qi.”

Guan Yue said, turning to look at Ding Xiaoyu.

“Did you bring back everything I asked you to prepare?”

Ding Xiaoyu hummed in affirmation and handed two packets of herbs to Guan Yue.

“I told you to prepare one packet, didn’t I? Why is there an extra one?”

Ding Xiaoyu immediately told Guan Yue everything that had just happened.

“I saw that Mr. Chen was truly proficient in herbs, so I trusted him. This person is truly very kind, he even paid for me.”

When Ding Xiaoyu spoke of Chen Tianming, her eyes held a smile.

Guan Yue, however, was frowning and instead examined the other packet of medicine.

“I wouldn’t dare take something prescribed by a stranger.”

Ding Xiaoyu explained, “Mr. Chen doesn’t look like a bad person, and he said your previous tonic had flaws. He refined it and re-prescribed a dose for you.”

“Just put it aside for now, I’m not interested in other people’s things.”

Seeing him like this, Ding Xiaoyu didn't press the issue and could only nod in agreement. Soon after, she brewed the medicine she had brought back.

After drinking the hot Chinese medicine soup, a bitter taste immediately rose from her throat.

This feeling was truly not good.

As the medicine entered his throat and was gradually absorbed by his body, Guan Yue’s body began to warm up.

The qi within his body seemed to be gradually gathering.

Large beads of sweat also seeped from his forehead.

“If this medicine really works, I’ll be able to regulate my body in less than three days.”

He was still calculating in his mind.

As soon as the matter was settled, he would immediately turn back.

He would never let that girl escape again, no matter what.

As for the guy who made things difficult for him at the amusement park, he would definitely not let him off either.

“Xiaoyu, don’t worry, once my body recovers, I’ll go and catch that little girl, and then I’ll definitely marry you. We’ll get married then.”

Listening to Guan Yue’s words, Ding Xiaoyu felt a surge of emotion in her heart.

She leaned directly against Guan Yue’s side.

“I believe you can do it.”

It was a pity that Guan Yue’s medicine didn’t have much effect. Although there were indeed changes in his body before and after taking the medicine, there was no rapid progress.

After taking the medicine for the second time, Guan Yue excitedly smashed the medicine bowl onto the ground.

“How long will this go on?”

Seeing that it still didn't work after two attempts, Ding Xiaoyu's mind started to wander again.

“How about we try Mr. Chen’s prescription?”
