“Ling Yun, make yourself at home. No need to be polite!” Miracle Doctor Xue told Ling Yun amicably as they emerged from Miracle Doctor Xue’s study.

The concern was unnecessary since Xue Meining had pro-actively settled Ling Yun into the chair and shifted her own closer to Ling Yun. She then scurried off to get the alcohol.

“Ling Yun, w-what is the name of that girl? How old is she?” Miracle Doctor Xue inquired about Miao Xiaomiao with telepathy while Xue Meining was still away.

If Ling Yun’s deduction was true, the girl that he saw was probably his granddaughter. Things wouldn’t be as simple as revenge then. She was of the same bloodline! Miracle Doctor Xue could no longer keep still.

“Her name is Miao Xiaomiao. She looks like she is the same age as Ning Er, but she should be slightly older,” Ling Yun replied via telepathy.

“There are four great families in Miaojiang well-versed in the Art of Gu. They are the Miao Family, Hei Family, Ren Family and An Family. Her surname is Miao and looks like Ning Er...” muttered Miracle Doctor Xue with his eyebrows locked.

What was there to think about? The mystery was basically solved.

Miracle Doctor Xue knew that Miao Fenghuang was an expert in both medical skills and the Art of Gu. If she had intended to get pregnant all those year ago, she would definitely be able to succeed through that one night of passion.

“Ling Yun, this old man has a small favor to ask. I don’t know if it’s appropriate...” Miracle Doctor Xue asked Ling Yun after some hesitation.

“Anything for you, Grandpa Xue. No need to stand on ceremony with me.” Ling Yun smiled.

Miracle Doctor Xue nodded and headed straight to the point. “Ling Yun, since we are now certain that Miao Xiaomiao was sent by Miao Fenghuang, she is definitely after me, not you. I know that you are highly skilled in medicine and martial arts. If Miao Xiaomiao goes against you, please, please show mercy on her...”

“Grandpa Xue, rest assured, once I am sure that Miao Xiaomiao is your blood kin, I will devise a strategy to bring her to you so that you can reunite. What do you think?” Ling Yun scratched his head in embarrassment.

Miracle Doctor Xue finally relaxed. His expression softened. “I am relieved then. *Sigh* , I owe you a big favor yet again...”

Xue Meining came in at this moment with the two bottles of treasured wine. She looked at the two of them in puzzlement. “What’s happened to the two of you today? Both of you just keep staring at each other without talking. It creeps me out. Are you hiding something from me?”

Ling Yun shook his head indignantly. “No, Ning Er. I was thinking that it would be a waste if we were not able to finish the food you ordered since you ordered so much...”

Xue Meining just grinned and settled down beside Ling Yun. “This is your first time coming over for dinner, and you have been on a strict diet for quite some time. You have to enjoy yourself a bit.”

Well, Ling Yun would not say no to a table full of good food. He opened a bottle of wine and poured Miracle Doctor Xue a full cup before pouring a cup for himself.

The sweet aroma from the wine wafted throughout the house.

“Ning Er, are you drinking?” Ling Yun asked Xue Meining with a twinkle in his eye.

Xue Meining turned her pair of big eyes pointedly to Miracle Doctor Xue.

“Drink with Ling Yun. It’s his first visit to our house, after all...” Miracle Doctor Xue gave his permission readily.

“Hehe, thank you Grandpa. I will pour the wine!” Xue Meining snatched the wine bottle from Ling Yun happily.

Ling Yun might be arrogant when dealing with his enemies, but he also gave due respect when when dealing with someone that deserved it. Ling Yun gave three toasts to Miracle Doctor Xue to thank him for helping him with his medical license. They started drinking casually together thereafter.

After some good wine and scrumptious food.

“Grandpa, Big Brother Yun bought Mansion Number One at Qingxi Villa District. I want to stay there with him...” Xue Meining blurted out with a tipsy face, emboldened by the alcohol.

Ling Yun gave Xue Meining a strange look. She had lied to him about having asked permission from her Grandpa Xue to stay with him! She deserved a good spanking when they reached home.

Grandpa Xue, however, smiled lightly at Ling Yun before replying, “Ning Er, you will likely bring inconvenience to Ling Yun if you move in with him, so this decision has to be done by Ling Yun.”

Miracle Doctor Xue threw the ball into Ling Yun’s court effortlessly.

“Erm...” Ling Yun felt trapped. He had replied to Xue Meining easily when Xue Meining had said that she had already obtained her grandpa’s approval. However, it was a whole different story in front of Miracle Doctor Xue.

“What’s with this and that? Big Brother Yun, didn’t you say you would teach me martial arts and impart the Nine Needles of the Spiritual Pivot to me? It would be so convenient if we were to stay together.” Pissed, Xue Meining started to chide Ling Yun. How could Ling Yun waver even for a moment when a beauty like her basically offered herself to him?

Ling Yun agreed to the convenience which extended to other aspects as well...

“Sure, sure...” Ling Yun surrendered hurriedly when he felt Xue Meining’s fingers ready to pinch his soft belly. He knew how to pick his fights.

“Grandpa, Big Brother Yun agreed.” Xue Meining smiled triumphantly towards Miracle Doctor Xue.

Miracle Doctor Xue had a light smile on his face, but he felt as though a piece of his heart had been snatched away. “You can go since Ling Yun agreed. I know about Mansion Number One. It is huge and has many rooms. Ahem, my Ning Er is still young. Ling Yun, you have to take care of her properly.”

Xue Meining blushed. “Grandpa, what nonsense are you getting at...” Her delicate temperament was fully exposed.

Ling Yun understood Miracle Doctor Xue’s hidden meaning in his message. He nodded his head lightly and gave Miracle Doctor Xue a reassuring look. “Grandpa Xue, rest assured. There are others staying at my place...”

Miracle Doctor Xue would not have sent his precious granddaughter to the lion’s den if he thought that Ling Yun was someone irresponsible. He was relieved with Ling Yun’s answer.

“Grandpa, Big Brother Yun’s mansion is still very empty. Can you give me twenty million yuan to add some furniture to his house?” Miracle Doctor Xue nearly spat out his tea at his granddaughter’s absurd request!

Twenty million yuan?! His dear granddaughter really didn’t know the value of money!

Ling Yun looked at the medical herb in the distant yard as if he had heard nothing. He would not stop any advantages he stood to gain.

“Ahem ahem... Okay, I will get your father to transfer twenty million yuan to you after dinner. We will just treat it as a housewarming gift for Ling Yun.” Miracle Doctor Xue knew that his precious granddaughter was infatuated with Ling Yun and would give anything to him.

“Hehe, Grandpa Xue, it is too nice of you to give me such a great gift...”

Ling Yun finally looked back and thanked Miracle Doctor Xue shamelessly, lapping up the additional advantage he had obtained.

“Ling Yun, my Ning Er is deeply in love with you. I hope that you will not betray her...”

Miracle Doctor Xue worried about his granddaughter, not a mere twenty million yuan.

Ling Yun nodded and made a silent promise.

The three of them continued drinking and enjoyed themselves tremendously. Ling Yun suddenly thought about another matter. “Grandpa Xue, I see that you have planted quite a number of rare medicinal herbs in your garden. I would like to obtain some seeds from you, or I could purchase them if you could kindly let me know where I could find them. I would like to plant in my garden.”

Ling Yun required a great number of rare and expensive medicinal herbs to create talisman charms and medication pills.

Ling Yun needed some special medicinal herbs to produce more advanced talisman charms. Even though there were many rare and expensive medicinal herbs in Miracle Doctor Xue’s garden, the spiritual energy they contained were extremely low. It was not at a level he could absorb from. He therefore started thinking about planting them himself.

Mansion Number One was itself a huge spirit gathering formation. It absorbed precious spiritual energy from the lake at Qingshui City and the Antique Market. Ling Yun wanted to leverage its location to grow some herbs with spiritual energy so that it would be easier to create talisman charms.

He had a few acres of open space in his mansion anyway. Ling Yun could dedicate a space for it without any problems.

Miracle Doctor Xue smiled and nodded happily. “You are a true medical genius. You are hardly able to talk about anything other than your work! Ling Yun, you have come to the right person. I no longer require the medicinal herbs in my yard. Transplant those you want. I will extract some seeds for those that can’t be transplanted.”

“That is great. Thank you so much, Grandpa Xue.” Ling Yun was elated.

Time flew by. It was already two in the afternoon when they finished lunch. Ling Yun got up to leave.

“Big Brother Yun, where are you going in the afternoon? I want to tag along!” Xue Meining had had one cup too many and was slightly drunk.

“Ning Er, you drank too much. I don’t think you should drive. Rest at home in the afternoon first. Call me when you are sober, okay?”

Xue Meining finally agreed after Miracle Doctor Xue and Ling Yun’s persuasion.

“Ling Yun, take down my phone number. Call me directly if you encounter any trouble in the future!” Miracle Doctor Xue told Ling Yun as he sent him off with a smile.
