Romantic Medical Immortal

Chapter 199: Actually, I Don’t Have Fairy Phoenix Grass

"What??"

This news struck Yang Cheng’s head like a thunderbolt. He suddenly stood up, his face overflowing with joy.

Lately, he had been vexed by the search for medicinal herbs.

Unexpectedly, the herb came right to his door!

Swipe, swipe, swipe...

The next moment, the three people at the dining table all turned their gaze to Yang Cheng. They exchanged glances but didn’t speak.

After coming back to his senses, Yang Cheng calmed down. Not many people knew he needed the medicinal herb, so how did this woman know?

Moreover, such a precious herb being offered voluntarily was certainly not simple.

Thinking of this, his expression turned serious as he asked, "How do you know I need the Fairy Phoenix Grass?"

"Ha ha ha..." Ling’Er couldn’t help but laugh. She said, "Peach Blossom County is just so small, and even fewer people need such an herb. Is it that hard for me to know about it?"

True!

Though Yang Cheng didn’t know exactly who Ling’Er was, someone who could borrow land with a million would hardly be an ordinary person.

She was considered upper class in Peach Blossom County.

Hearing about his need for the herb wasn’t difficult for her.

Yang Cheng took a deep breath and said, "You wouldn’t just give me the Fairy Phoenix Grass for free, right?"

"It’s easy talking to smart people!"

Ling’Er chuckled and said, "You’re right. The Fairy Phoenix Grass is so precious that I definitely won’t give it to you for nothing."

Yang Cheng immediately asked, "What do you want me to do?"

"For such matters, I think meeting in person is more suitable. There’s no better time than now; let’s meet up today. I’m at the entrance of Tranquil Mind Hall. If you don’t show up in half an hour, I’ll be gone!"

After saying this, Ling’Er didn’t give Yang Cheng a chance to continue talking and directly hung up the phone.

"Hey, hey, hey..."

Yang Cheng shouted a few times, but the only response was the beeping of the disconnected call, leaving him deep in thought.

This woman must have investigated him secretly, which is why she knew he needed the herb.

Could it be, she’s still not giving up and insists on borrowing his seed?

Is it really worth paying such a big price just to borrow some seed?

Does she want him to do something else as well?

Forget it!!

As long as he can get the Fairy Phoenix Grass, he’ll brave any danger, even if it’s a mountain of knives or a sea of fire.

After hanging up the call, Yang Cheng no longer felt like drinking. He turned to Liu Xuan and said, "Brother Xuan, I’m really sorry, I can’t drink with you today. I have something important to deal with."

"It’s fine. We’ll drink again when you have time; there are plenty of opportunities to meet,"

said Liu Xuan, hiccuping drunkenly, "I’ve already drunk quite a bit today and am very happy. Go handle your business first."

"Alright, I’ll take my leave then!"

With only half an hour left, Yang Cheng didn’t dare to waste time. After a brief farewell to Ling Manyue and Liu Wen, he hurriedly left.

...

Because Liu Xuan’s house is near Willowleaf Village, it’s not far from Tranquil Mind Hall.

Knowing Ling’Er’s purpose wasn’t simple this time, worrying about making a mistake due to the alcohol, he used True Qi on the way to evaporate all the alcohol in his body.

Now he was clear-headed, not at all like someone who had been drinking.

It took him only a dozen minutes to reach the vicinity of Tranquil Mind Hall. Looking around, he saw a black Mercedes parked opposite the hall, flashing its hazard lights brightly in the night.

"I’m over here!"

At this moment, the car window rolled down, and Ling’Er’s head popped out, waving constantly.

"Coming!" Yang Cheng answered, striding over quickly.

He yanked open the car door and sat in the passenger seat.

Seeing Ling’Er’s outfit, Yang Cheng’s eyes lit up. Today’s attire was significantly different from when they first met.

Before, Ling’Er had big waves and wore a sexy little dress, exuding a charming and mature aura. Now she had straight hair with bangs, looking very innocent.

Her makeup was much lighter, just a trace of powder, with a bit of color on her lips.

Her attire was also exceptionally pure, like a university student who hasn’t graduated.

A pale goose yellow chiffon dress with a round neckline, highlighting the large expanse of glaring whiteness on her chest. With each breath, the full soft jade seemed about to burst out.

The A-line skirt, with its lightweight chiffon fabric adorned with small floral patterns, reached the middle of her calf. A matching slim belt around her waist accentuated her figure, making her look even more sizzling.

Gulp!

Seeing Ling’Er at that moment, Yang Cheng’s Adam’s apple involuntarily moved as he swallowed hard. The sudden change in style deeply attracted him.

If the previous Ling’Er was a thorny rose in the dark, now she was like a lily under the sun, giving an extremely pure and clean feeling, which made him prefer this version of her.

"Why are you staring at me like that?"

Feeling Yang Cheng’s heated gaze, Ling’Er rolled her eyes charmingly and said, "Do you want to sleep with me?"

So direct!

What she said and her image couldn’t be more different.

Yang Cheng couldn’t help but tease, "You dress so innocently, could you be a bit more tactful when speaking? It’s really not matching your image."

"If it were someone else, maybe I’d pretend a bit, but in front of you, there’s no need for me to pretend, right? You’ve seen me in all sorts of poses, haven’t you?"

Ling’Er’s lips curled into a meaning-laden smile as she stared at Yang Cheng.

"Alright, you make a good point..."

This sentence suddenly reminded Yang Cheng of the time at Tranquil Mind Hall when he taught Ling’Er for almost two hours. They tried every common method; indeed, Ling’Er didn’t need to hide her true self in front of him.

"So, which outfit of mine do you prefer, the previous one or this one now?"

Ling’Er blinked her large eyes and cast a very seductive glance.

Normally, in the face of such seduction, Yang Cheng wouldn’t waste any words and would directly pounce and continue to teach this little flirt.

But now, his mind was full of the Fairy Phoenix Grass, leaving no room for such desires.

He said, "Stop diverting the topic; let’s talk about the Fairy Phoenix Grass. What do you need me to do to give it to me?"

"Discussing such an important matter in the car isn’t convenient..."

Ling’Er pointed outside at Tranquil Mind Hall and suggested, "How about we go inside and book a private room to discuss it properly?"

"Forget Tranquil Mind Hall, I quit there already."

Yang Cheng immediately declined, then light-heartedly suggested, "If you don’t mind, let’s go to my place; it’s very quiet there."

"Sure!"

Upon hearing this, Ling’Er’s eyes brightened as she eagerly started the car and said, "Lead the way."

"Alright," Yang Cheng nodded gently.

...

Ten minutes later, the Mercedes slowly stopped at the entrance of the small courtyard Yang Cheng rented.

Upon entering the courtyard, Ling’Er surveyed the surroundings and couldn’t help but praise, "This small courtyard is quite nice. Do you usually live here?"

"Just rented it, haven’t officially moved in yet,"

Yang Cheng couldn’t be bothered to explain too much and continued, "Can we talk about the Fairy Phoenix Grass now?"

"Let’s talk inside!"

Ling’Er swayed her hips and walked straight into the house without saying more.

This little vixen, so tedious!

But since the needed item was in her hands, Yang Cheng maintained a proper demeanor, closed the door, and followed Ling’Er inside.

Ling’Er kept looking around Yang Cheng’s place, her eyes filled with curiosity, wandering here and there without mentioning the Fairy Phoenix Grass. Although Yang Cheng was anxious, he didn’t press her.

Only after she had wandered throughout the house did Ling’Er finally look at Yang Cheng and say with a raised corner of her mouth, "Actually, I don’t have the Fairy Phoenix Grass!!"
