Chapter 241: Because I Like Him



Chapter 241

"Because I like him!"

"So he can come."

As soon as she finished speaking, the smile in Ximen Ye's eyes completely froze. He pouted pitifully, "How am I inferior to him?"

"You talk more than him. You're too noisy."

"......"

Ximen Ye was momentarily unable to refute.

After being flatly rejected by Qi Huan, he decided to change his approach.

There's no corner that can't be dug, only hoes that aren't trying hard enough.

He would try very hard!

He decided to have a talk with Li Shuchen!

Ximen Ye's lips curled into a playful smile as he said to Qi Huan, "You go in first."

"This is my courtyard. You tell me to go in, and I just go in? Don't I have any face?"

Fearing he might harm Li Shuchen, Qi Huan didn't budge an inch.

Shu couldn't use his true qi, so she had to protect him.

Behind her, Li Shuchen's smile was as radiant as the sun, his eyes brimming with joy that seemed about to overflow. An all-encompassing love permeated his heart, lingering for a long time.

He raised his eyebrows in delight, smiling wide enough to show his teeth for the first time: "Huan, you go in first."

"...Alright."

Qi Huan shuffled back to the room slowly, glancing down at her space necklace. She clung to the doorframe, poking her head out, her gaze fixed firmly on Li Shuchen.

Seeing this, Ximen Ye let out a cold snort.

Just now when he had told his cousin to go in, she had retorted sharply.

But the same words from Li Shuchen's mouth made his cousin as docile and gentle as a little lamb.

It was so unfair!

He looked at Qi Huan reproachfully.

Then, he skillfully took out the small notebook from his waist.

After jotting something down with the charcoal pencil he always carried, he turned to ask Li Shuchen, "The kingdom or the beauty, which do you want?"

"Both."

Although the man before him spoke casually, he carried an air of looking down on the world, revealing his ambition. Ximen Ye smiled and said:

"I have dirt on important court officials."

"I also have powerful martial artists at my disposal."

"I can give you all of these, as long as you leave my cousin."

"Plus, an additional 300,000 taels of gold."

Qi Huan was stunned. What kind of move was this?

She felt that this rich fool was just like the evil mother-in-law from TV dramas in her past life, throwing a wad of cash at the female lead: "Here's 5 million, leave my son!"

As she thought about it, she couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Of all things to imitate, you choose this outdated, childish tactic."

Ximen Ye gritted his teeth. She dared to call him childish?!

Was she older than him?

Ridiculous!

At this moment, Li Shuchen added fuel to the fire: "Indeed, very childish."

"Besides, this prince doesn't need what you're offering."

"What you have, this prince already has."

"What you don't have, this prince also has."

"......"

Suddenly, Ximen Ye didn't want to deal with him anymore...

Instead, he took out a white porcelain bottle from his waist and handed it to Qi Huan: "It's an antidote developed by the pharmacist, effective in alleviating his cold poison. I'm giving it to you. Remember my kindness."

He wanted to win over his little cousin with genuine affection!

On the other hand, cold and heat counteract each other, and the formula for the pills mostly contained heat-inducing herbs.

There wouldn't be much effect at first, but after accumulating for a while, it would probably need about three days and nights to alleviate...

If Li Shuchen touched another woman, he could naturally badmouth him for three days and three nights, and then whisk away his little cousin!

The next morning, right after breakfast, Qi Huan took the medicine bottle and found Shen Jueming.

"Dr. Shen, how is it?"

After observing and smelling, Shen Jueming cut open a pill, ground it up, and examined it. He even picked up a bit to taste.

"Looking at the components alone, it seems to target the symptoms... But I vaguely feel like there's a hint of bloodiness in it."

Shen Jueming was skilled in medicine but not in poisons. Suppressing the cold poison in Li Shuchen's body had already cost him considerable effort.

It would take quite some time for him to concoct an antidote on his own, so he didn't want to miss any opportunity.

He took out another pill and analyzed it carefully again.

There should be some ingredient in this pill that was originally highly toxic, but its toxicity had been neutralized by other herbs. Combined, they actually made the medicinal properties more potent. Just tasting a tiny bit made him break out in a sweat from the heat.

Maybe he should extract the toxins from "Young Master Chen's" body, feed them to a small pig, and then test the pills on it?

As for why not use a small mouse, it was because the weight wouldn't match, and the effects might be skewed.

Seeing that he had an idea, Qi Huan changed the subject and began talking to him about folic acid and tuberculosis medicine...

"Ding dong, 20,000 points have been credited to the host's account!"

"System, you're becoming more and more generous!"

"The host popularized folic acid, accumulating boundless merit, increasing points by 10,000. The host promoted spinach, enriching vegetable varieties, adding another 10,000 points!"

"What about the tuberculosis medicine? Why not add another 10,000?"

Faced with her greed, the system patiently explained: "The host lowered the price of tuberculosis medicine, which of course counts as doing good, but this relies on the medicine in the host's possession, rather than being a virtue that can be passed down to future generations. Naturally, the scoring rules are different."

"For each pill sold, the host gains one point. Additionally, for each patient cured, the host has essentially saved a life, increasing points by 50."

"Droplets form rivers, grains of sand form mountains. Accumulating bit by bit, the increase in points is also quite considerable. Host, be content with what you have."

Qi Huan replied with a smile: "Alright, I'm content."

"How many points do I have in total now?"

"107,000."

Qi Huan was silent for a moment before saying: "System, I've realized you're right! Little by little does add up!"

Last time she only had 60,000 points left, plus today's 20,000, that's 80,000 in total.

But during this period, the small good deeds here and there added up to more than 20,000!

"Host, the books you sell at low prices will cultivate many talented individuals in the future.

The poor students you support will become pillars of this country in the future.

Chen Jinyou, whom you actively guide towards goodness, donates monthly and delights in charity. You have a share in his merit as well..."

"The more you do, the more rewards you receive! Keep it up, Host!"

"Host, after hearing all this, aren't you feeling great?"

"Yes, yes!"

"Happiness shared is happiness doubled. So, would you be willing to let little System be happy too?"
