She has her own goals and will no longer be bothered by the Xie family.

But before that, she still needed to go back to Linjiang City to retrieve some things from the Xie family.

Shen Linyuan was pleasantly surprised: "You're going to take the big exam? That's wonderful! Just tell me what you need, and I'll try my best to meet your needs."

Of course, he was just being modest. Given his current status and position in the capital, it's no exaggeration to say that he could provide Xie Ziyuan with the best of everything.

Xie Ziyuan was very satisfied with the resources and medicinal herbs provided by Shen Linyuan. This time, she wanted to study how to broaden the meridians and improve the bones of ordinary people so that even mediocre ancient martial artists could achieve twice the result with half the effort. Sacred Heart Fruit was indispensable among the medicinal herbs. Shen Linyuan provided ten at once and would supply them every quarter thereafter, which made Xie Ziyuan very happy.

She knew all too well how much the Huo family desired the Sacred Heart Fruit and how much they longed for it but could not obtain it when they wanted to enter the ancient martial arts world to elevate their family's status.

Now, however, she has a stable supply and can use it at will, having already reached the position that the Huo family has always dreamed of.

Xie Ziyuan smiled gently: "Lin Yuan, you've arranged things very well. I don't need anything else. I just hope you can arrange more cases for me to treat, because practice makes perfect."

Shen Linyuan was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed!

Xie Ziyuan understood immediately. Many alchemists only focus on studying medicinal materials, but never look up at the patients around them.

The Shen family, the richest family in the world, went to great lengths to provide Baicaotang with the best resources, even surpassing Guwutang, all for the sake of recruiting talented people to refine medicinal herbs and make more money.

However, it was because the Shen family had a very important patient, and the head of the Shen family was doing everything he could to extend that person's lifespan as much as possible.

Shen Linyuan, an outsider, didn't actually know the specifics, but he was heading in the right direction.

He only gave Xie Ziyuan a couple of pointers, and it's quite impressive that Xie Ziyuan has the aptitude for it.

However, this matter was kept very secret from the authorities. He had to analyze it with his father and grandfather for a long time before he came to this conclusion.

Therefore, we can only give a direction, not explicit hints, otherwise, if we make a mistake, we might be expelled from the family.

"Okay, I'll go arrange it right away!"

After the class meeting and receiving the report cards, it was clear that the semester was truly over.

However, there is no such thing as a holiday for senior high school students.

The school's senior grade group arranged for teachers to take turns on duty, and students who wanted to study on their own or ask questions could still come to the school. Under these circumstances, no one dared to relax their vigilance.

With less than six months until the college entrance examination, everyone is on edge, and the classrooms are still packed with students every day.

Xie Li went a few times, but found that sitting there was actually quite boring, so he didn't plan to go anymore.

I was blocked as soon as I stepped out of the school gate.

"Xie Li, I want to talk to you." Huo Yuntang stood at the school gate, leaning against his luxury car, exuding an extraordinary and elegant demeanor.

Xie Li: "What do you want to talk about? Hurry up."

Huo Yuntang: "Let's find a place to sit down and get something to eat."

Xie Li paused, glanced at him, and said, "...Never mind then, I'm going home. There's a curfew at home."

She felt there was nothing to talk about; Huo Yuntang's actions last time were utterly inexplicable.

“If you want to talk about repaying, I’ve already said it: just donate money directly to the Tiandushan Forest Protection Station for forest protection. That’s better than anything else.”

As for other things, she really didn't think she had any interaction with Huo Yuntang.

“I’ve already had these things done.”
