My System Forces Me to Live off Women

Chapter 329 - 267: Stir-Fried Li Peifeng (Part 3)

The call was cut off, and Li Peifeng felt a bit conflicted. It seemed like this was the first meeting between Zhao Qingge and Huang Tianxuan after waking up from the five-person dream. He wondered if they would clash and create sparks.

"Do you still have that medicine? And you gave it to her?"

Huang Tianxuan widened her eyes and instinctively stepped back a half-step to distance herself from Li Peifeng, her tone puzzled and tinged with disdain: "You actually gave your mentor the aphrodisiac?"

Li Peifeng wasted a good deal of effort explaining to Huang Tianxuan that the [Jiu Jiu Gui Yuan Gu Jing Qiang Shen Pill] and the [Peiyuan Pill] are not the same medicine. Fortunately, after distributing the [Peiyuan Pill] to the three girls, Li Peifeng still had some left, even though he occasionally took some himself; about a hundred pills were still remaining.

"The medicine is all yours, take it and eat. It beautifies, strengthens the body, cleanses and refines the bones, cures illnesses, and strengthens the body if you are healthy. Alas, I’ve made another decision against the ancestors again..."

Ignoring Li Peifeng’s ramblings, Huang Tianxuan took the transparent plastic bottle, examined the black pills inside, and hesitated: "Where do you get all these weird medicines?"

"Don’t ask, if you ask, it means it was given by an immortal."

"Then this immortal really has poor judgment!"

Huang Tianxuan muttered to herself, fully understanding the real meaning behind Li Peifeng’s words to Zhao Qingge earlier. The talk about discussing drug formulation at his home was merely a flimsy excuse to cover up the real reason. But concerning this medicine...

"Are you sure it’s safe to take? What exactly are the effects?"

"Try it and you’ll know, actually the effects are pretty much as I described earlier."

After asking about the dosage, Huang Tianxuan took a glass of water and swallowed a pill immediately. Her face suddenly turned radiant and glowing, but her expression was one of shock; her mouth opened so wide that you could probably fit a small apple inside...

"Does it contain caffeine? Adrenaline? Or modafinil? What are the side effects?"

"No side effects. I don’t know the exact ingredients, you can test it yourself."

Li Peifeng waved his hand and said, "But keep it confidential. If you can mass-produce it, that would be great. Remember to give me a share of it."

Not too thrilled, Huang Tianxuan poured out another pill from the bottle, sniffed it carefully at the tip of her nose, then frowned: "Is it still Chinese medicine? It’s really hard to develop."

"Regarding the development of the Strength Pill, do you know how much manpower and resources I’ve invested now? At least eight million, yet it’s still stuck at the technology research stage. My brother and father have asked about this matter and politely suggested I stop the project because it’s really a bottomless pit, harder than innovating Western medicine."

Li Peifeng sighed: "It’s a pity about my medicine, being sacrificed in vain... If it really doesn’t work out, don’t test the Peiyuan Pill, just keep it for yourself. It truly can beautify and delay aging."

Huang Tianxuan nodded ambiguously, looked at the pills left in the bottle, less than one-fifth of the original amount, and asked: "Did you also give this medicine to Zhao Qingge? How much did you give her?"

"The same amount as yours, these are specially reserved for you."

Huang Tianxuan secretly curled her lips: "What about Wenyue and Manning, did you give them some too?"

"You guess?"

"I knew it wasn’t just for me!"

Li Peifeng retorted: "I gave you the opportunity, but you couldn’t seize it. The Strengthening Pill was just one piece, and it was all given to you, did you come up with anything? Do you have a leg to stand on now?"

Huang Tianxuan’s face turned angry: "Drug development takes time, even one or two years is considered short. I have told you before, do you remember?"

"I remember, I remember... Go and pick up the utensils, for three people."

"I’m not helping you, do it yourself."

Huang Tianxuan crossed her arms over her chest, her face displeased: "We agreed it was going to be a dinner for two, and now you’ve invited Zhao Qingge, I’m already being generous by not leaving immediately."

"Then I really must thank you, sister."

Li Peifeng gave in, stopped bickering with her, and started setting the table himself. Huang Tianxuan indeed stuck to her words and stopped helping in the kitchen, turned around and went to sit on the sofa in the living room.

[So angry, really angry, I feel like hitting someone! Even if I was evil beyond redemption in my past life, meeting a guy like this would pay off my debts!]

[No way! I need to stir things up!!]

Li Peifeng put down the utensils, feeling a stir in his heart, he instinctively looked at Huang Tianxuan, and saw her with her phone calling someone, and the call seemed to have been answered...

"Yueyue, what are you busy with?"

Huang Tianxuan sat on the sofa elegantly crossing her legs, speaking casually: "Oh, just finished shooting a video? Haven’t had dinner, have you?!"

"..."

"Come over to Peifeng’s place for dinner, I’m here too, and Professor Zhao will be here later."

"..."

"What’s the matter? Nothing much, just having dinner and chatting. Are you coming?"

"..."

"Okay, I’ll wait for you."

"..."

She hung up the phone and looked at Li Peifeng, her smile slightly apologetic: "I’ll have to trouble you again, set the utensils for four people."

Li Peifeng kept a straight face: "What do you mean? You think having dinner for three isn’t lively enough?"

"Four people still feel a bit less to me."

Huang Tianxuan fiddled with her phone, chuckling: "If Manning hadn’t gone on a business trip, I’d have invited her too."

Li Peifeng frowned, standing still as if pondering.

"What are you standing there for?"

Huang Tianxuan kindly reminded him: "Hurry up and set the table, and make more dishes. With two more people, if there’s a quarrel because of insufficient food, and Yueyue grabs a knife ready to stir-fry Li Peifeng, I won’t stop her~"
