Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation

Cheng Lingran looked at Jiang Xiu with doubt while that guy revealed an entirely genuine smile. His gaze was uncannily serene, so much that even he had almost believed his own words. The beauty, Cheng Lingran, naturally couldn't find a flaw in his words. She had actually asked the question without thinking it through, and right now, she was in fact very fatigued and just didn't have the energy to think about these things.

From yesterday till now, 40 hours had already passed by, keeping aside the fear and worry, she hadn't even caught a wink and thus couldn't help but yawn while covering her mouth.

Jiang Xiu asked, "You haven't slept yet?"

Cheng Lingran nodded, "It's fine. I can endure it since I'm young. I'm more worried about my mother. She hasn't slept as well."

"This won't do. Wait here for me while I go grab something to eat. Take a nap once you've eaten. It will take time for your father's condition to improve. If you don't take care of your health, how will you take care of him?"

Cheng Lingran slumped down on the hospital's chair. "Don't go too far. Just get cup noodles from the hospital's snack counter."

Jiang Xiu did precisely what she asked and came back after buying cup noodles from the snack counter. However, when he returned, he discovered that Cheng Lingran had fallen asleep on the seat. She was a girl who liked cleanliness, and if it weren't for being too fatigued, she would've never fallen asleep in such a dirty, germ-filled area of the hospital.

Since it would be pretty uncomfortable for her to sleep this way, Jiang Xiu sat beside her with the intentions to give her a pillow lap but wasn't expecting Cheng Lingran to wake up in vigil due to the fragrance of the noodles. "So hungry…"

She sat up, took the cup then started eating.

"You'll gain pimples if you eat noodles."

Cheng Lingsu didn't care. She ate a few bites then said eloquently, "You and your crow's beak. You're done for if I really get pimples."

"Okay!"

The inner core still laid on Cheng Lingran's neck. Its detoxification ability was pretty strong. Cheng Lingran's skin had become full of life and prettier due to it. Eating cup noodles naturally wouldn't bring rise to pimples on her face. Jiang Xiu was merely reminding her that it wasn't good to eat this thing too much.

"Give me two bites as well!"

Jiang Xiu had fought a fierce battle with Ji Wudao today. If it weren't for him taking a risk to refine the saber pill, he might have fallen under Ji Wudao's hands. He had used up a lot of energy over the course of the battle.

"Do you even have a conscience? You're fighting me over this single cup of noodles."

"Can't you just go buy another cup?"

Cheng Lingran said meanly. She was really too hungry and thought this little amount wasn't even enough for her, let alone him. Jiang Xiu was left speechless. "Sis, it seems like I'm the one who paid for this cup noodles."

It was indeed so. Cheng Lingran realized that she was acting too overbearing. She reluctantly forked the noodles, that too a tiny portion and fed it to him. Jiang Xiu didn't avoid it. The fragrance of noodles was indeed very appealing to a person with an empty belly.

A pretty silhouette appeared at the corridor right now. She was carrying a plastic bag in her hands which had a few packets inside. From its shape, it seemed to be takeout. She had accidentally witnessed this scene. Astonishment flashed through her beautiful eyes, followed by sadness. Cheng Lingran had also noticed her from the corner of her eyes and just like a thief caught red-handed, she withdrew back in fear. "Susu!"

Cheng Lingsu walked over towards them. "Why are you eating cup noodles? I bought fish, meat and also rice. Come, let's eat!"

Cheng Lingran's face blushed a little. "Little Xiu, you're hungry, right? Quickly eat it." She took the takeout bag from her sister's hands and took out the take boxes from inside.

Cheng Lingsu gave Jiang Xiu a deep glance. His face was the same as before, indifferent. She believed their relationship would change after tonight, but it seemed like nothing changed.

He acted the same to her as he did before.

Cheng Lingsu realized her blunder. From the beginning, the reason for Jiang Xiu's behavior wasn't due to the grievances of their elders. It was possible the reason for it was the three years of senior high when she had treated him as a stranger.

"How is Dad?"

"They just gave him a painkiller, so he feels a bit better now. You can go in to take a look. Give this one to mother. Right! Uncle Jiang and Aunt Lin must be hungry too, take two more with you."

Cheng Lingsu responded with an 'oh' and went inside along with the boxes.

"Uncle, Aunt, you're here!"

"Have some late-night snacks!"

Lin Yueling smiled at her. "Little child, unless you want your gift money packets to reduce, you better call us mom and dad."

Cheng Lingsu blushed fully.

"Dad, Mom!"

The happiness of both families reconciling gradually lifted the haze on Cheng Hanlin's mind, making him reveal a smile on his face. He felt it was worth it for him to get injured if both the families were able to reconcile as a result.

"It smells so appetizing. I also want to eat it!"

Cheng Hanlin laughed.

"Looks like you're already craving for it, huh? Right! I wonder if there's wine…" Jiang Yi commented.

Cheng Hanlin whined, "Brother Yi, is there a need to torment me so much?"

Jiang Yi replied, "Today's the Mid-autumn festival, and our families rarely gather together, so we naturally have to drink two cups. Susu, go tell that stinky brat outside to buy two bottles of wine."

"Alright!"

Cheng Lingsu left the room and saw her sister and Jiang Xiu were in the middle of eating. She thought it wouldn't be appropriate to send a big shot like Jiang Xiu to go buy wine and thus planned to go buy it herself, but on second thought, she felt that even if he was terrific, he was still Uncle Jiang's son, and it was proper for a son to buy wine for the father. Why should I get used to you? You don't even acknowledge me and also have a temper to boot.

"Jiang Xiu. Dad wants you to go buy wine!"

Jiang Xiu simply didn't dare believe what he heard. What did you say? You want me to go buy wine? Shouldn't you have realized you should be doing it?

His gaze swept past her. Cheng Lingsu became a little scared. If a gaze could've killed someone, Cheng Lingsu believed her heart would've been pierced by Jiang Xiu already.

She was terrified in the next second. "Never mind. I'll go!"

She couldn't believe she had failed so miserably.

Cheng Lingran said, "Susu, wait a minute. It'll be inconvenient for a girl like you to go out alone so late. Little Xiu, accompany her, okay?" She glared Jiang Xiu, "Why can't I see even a little enthusiasm in your eyes?"

Though Jiang Xiu was very unwilling, he still got up obediently.

The two of them walked outside, but as the snack store didn't have wine, they had to go out to buy it from the supermarket. Jiang Xiu didn't say a word at all. He felt his head hurt when he recalled the fact that Cheng Lingsu beside him was his legal wife.

Since the two families had now reconciled, it would become even more impossible for him and Cheng Lingsu to separate. As for his wife of from the previous life, Cheng Lingran, from the nervous appearance she displayed when Cheng Lingsu saw her feed Jiang Xiu, he knew she will drift further away from him.

Cheng Lingsu was the first to open her mouth, "I forgot to congratulate you. You won!"

"It was just a useless trash. There's no joy in such a victory."

His tone was quite dull, but Cheng Lingsu had witnessed that shocking battle so she could all the more feel the arrogance in his heart. Indeed, a crazy guy.

"What's your future plan?" Jiang Xiu asked her.

"Plan? Nothing special. To take care of Father and focus on studying."

The supermarket was right opposite the hospital.

"Looks like you've forgotten my words. We will divorce once this matter is settled."

As the dusky street light shone on Cheng Lingsu's face, her expression wasn't clear yet eyelashes had clearly trembled. "Okay, do as you please."

Cheng Lingsu believed she never liked him so it would be better to get as further away as possible from him, but she couldn't control her tears from falling.

"How about tomorrow noon then?"

"Okay!"

She quickly entered the supermarket, only leaving behind silent tears. She was surprised why she was crying. She believed it was because she had been wronged. From start to finish, she had always acted passively regarding this matter. She got married because his Jiang family wanted them to get married and now all her classmates knew she was married. If she divorced him, her life would be ruined.

After buying the wine, Cheng Lingsu returned back to the room, "Unc… Dad, your wine!" Calling out the word 'Dad' gave her a lot of stress, it had almost exhausted all her strength.

Jiang Yi took it into his hands, "Not bad!"

After the wine bottle's cork was opened, the entire room was pervaded by the wine's fragrance. Even Cheng Hanlin couldn't help but comment on it. "Really nice."

"Hahahaha…"

Jiang Yi laughed heartily, "Right! Yueling, as the mothers, you must prepare. Their marriage certificate is already fixed. We must hold the wedding for this young couple as soon as possible. Otherwise, Hanlin will think I treated his daughter unfairly."

Lin Yueling smiled, "You're right."

"Susu, where's your marriage certificate?"

Cheng Lingsu was stunned, "I-In my purse."

"Give it to me!"

Cheng Lingsu looked towards Jiang Xiu only to see his mouth twitch unnaturally.

So, should I give it or not?

Mr. Jiang…
