Qingyun straightened up, loosened her grip on Nie Chenyuan's collar, and picked up a tissue from the table to wipe it clean.
He chuckled lightly, his voice slow and deliberate, as if the grief and indignation he had just erupted were all an illusion.
“Nie Chenyuan, your meridians are blocked; you won’t live more than five years.”
“But I can cure him. As repayment for what I did before, would you like it?” He looked up and gazed deeply into Nie Chenyuan’s eyes.
Nie Chenyuan had felt a little strange because of Qingyun's outburst, but when he heard Qingyun's words, his expression slowly turned cold.
It was no secret that his meridians were blocked; over the years, many had used this as an excuse to plot against the Nie family. He never expected that Qingyun, whom he found so interesting, would also have this idea.
Nie Chenyuan exhaled a puff of smoke, concealing the faint disappointment in his eyes. He had thought that this child would have some more interesting reason to approach him.

"It's just payment; I don't like owing people things. But it's up to you whether you want it or not."

Therefore, Lin Yuhao had to win over the Nie family no matter what.
In addition to these, what's even more important is the innate energy that had accumulated in Nie Chenyuan's meridians. Lin Yuhao absorbed this innate energy when he helped Nie Chenyuan clear his meridians, which allowed him to reach the highest realm of this world—the Innate Realm—in one fell swoop.
If the Nie family were gone, Qingyun was very curious about what path Lin Yuhao would take.
"You can leave now." Nie Chenyuan's voice was deep as he stubbed out his cigarette. "I'm in a good mood today and don't want to cause you any trouble."
Qingyun narrowed her eyes.
"Wait!" an old voice rang out from outside the lounge.
