Lying on his bed in the bedroom, Xu Chen looked at the million-dollar check in his hand. "What should I do with this money?" He thought about it a lot. He decided to open a bank account tomorrow, use some of the money, and deposit the rest. "Oh right, how about giving Dad a little treat? That way, both Dad and Mom will be happy." Xu Chen decided to go to the city's traditional Chinese medicine clinic tomorrow to get a prescription for an aphrodisiac, refine it into pills with spiritual fire, and trick Xu Jianguo into taking them the night after tomorrow. He believed that the pills, imbued with his spiritual power, would be much more effective. Old Xu's happy middle-aged life was just around the corner. He did this because of Huang Youde's little provocation. That fatso was in his forties or fifties and still partying every night. Xu Chen was determined to help Xu Jianguo regain his virility and not be inferior to that fatso. As for whether Xu Chen himself knew medicine? He didn't. Firstly, he was always in seclusion or training, and secondly, whenever he encountered weakness or pain, he could just meditate and regulate his breathing. Therefore, he didn't quite understand the setting in mobile phone novels where every cultivator knew medicine.
The next morning, Xu Chen rushed to the bank, took care of all the formalities, deposited the check into his card, and then scanned the area with his divine sense, discovering a traditional Chinese medicine clinic. He immediately went there to get his prescription filled. As soon as he entered the clinic and reached the counter, an old man said, "Hello, young man." Xu Chen didn't hide anything, "Old man, do you have any prescriptions for aphrodisiacs? Three doses, please." At this moment, the other customers in the clinic looked over curiously. The old man thought for a moment, "Yes, Wan'er, Wan'er, this customer wants a prescription for aphrodisiacs, please get the medicine." At this moment, Mu Wan came out from behind, looked at Xu Chen, and froze. The old man coughed twice, and Mu Wan blushed as she got the three doses of medicine according to the prescription. She had come to help her grandfather's house today, but she didn't expect to run into Xu Chen doing such a "secret" thing. The old man took the medicine and handed it to Xu Chen, "Hello, that'll be 342 yuan in total." Xu Chen paid by scanning the QR code with WeChat, turned around and left. Mu Wan was stunned, "He's really changed." Then she felt a little disappointed.
Xu Chen spent the entire afternoon refining pills in his bedroom. After finishing, he stored them in his storage bag. "Finally, I have some free time." He picked up his phone and video-called Wang Li. "Consort Li, it's Xu Zi's birthday today! Aren't you going to give this servant anything?" Wang Li chuckled on the other end of the line. "Don't be silly, your eunuch-like voice sounds awful. As for what to give you, how about a kiss?" Wang Li pouted her red lips and licked them with her pink tongue. Xu Chen thought to himself, "Li Li, you're playing with fire." Wang Li immediately made a face. "Hehehe." Xu Chen immediately pretended to be angry and said, "Give me a kiss over the screen." Wang Li did as he was told. The two of them chatted on the phone all night long.
The next evening, exhausted, Xu Jianguo and Wang Rong returned home to find their children had already prepared a meal. They were relieved. Xu Chen, watching Xu Jianguo and Wang Rong eat the food containing pills, secretly felt relieved. Of course, the sesame powder pills Wang Rong ate were only mixed with a trace of his own spiritual energy to boost her spirits. "You two should go to sleep early too, wife, go back to your room." It was late, and Xu Jianguo and Wang Rong quickly went back to their room, washed up, and went to bed.
"Honey, why am I feeling more and more energetic tonight?" Xu Jianguo wondered. Wang Rong was also puzzled. Just as she got up to turn on the lamp to look at the reports, Xu Jianguo, seeing his wife's shapely figure beneath her hazy nightgown, felt a surge of heat in his lower abdomen. He beckoned to Wang Rong, "Honey, come here, I have something to tell you." Wang Rong complied, and then the room was filled with passion. The next morning, Xu Jianguo and Wang Rong went out radiant, their love seemingly even stronger than before.
Whether a winter break is enjoyable or not is always closely related to academic performance. In the parents' group chat these past few days, parents of students at Xingcheng No. 1 Middle School have seen their children's class and school rankings. Xu Chen, having achieved first place in his class and school, has once again become famous within his own class, although his ranking is only shown in his column. The school hasn't offered any explanation. Meanwhile, at Mu Wan's home, "Wan'er, how did you become second in the grade?" Mu Wan's mother, Li Li, looked at Mu Wan with suspicion. She didn't necessarily expect her daughter to always be first, but seeing a former first-place student become second was still intriguing. Mu Wan was equally puzzled; her score had clearly improved since the midterm exam. Who was the person who took her first place? Mu Wan's father, Mu Cheng, who was writing a report, overheard the mother and daughter's conversation and came over.
Li Li called her daughter's homeroom teacher, Ms. Wan. As soon as the call connected, Ms. Wan congratulated Li Li, saying, "Congratulations, Ms. Li Li! If your daughter maintains this level, she'll definitely get into Renmin University." Li Li smiled and then asked Ms. Wan, "Ms. Wan, is my daughter's progress relatively slow compared to other students? I see the rankings..." Ms. Wan sighed, "This semester, a student named Xu Chen came back to our school. He's simply a genius; he scored 716 points. So..." Li Li seemed to remember something, "Ms. Wan, the Xu Chen you mentioned... is he the son of Mayor Xu? He came back to study?" Ms. Wan replied, "Yes, he shocked the whole school as soon as he returned." At this moment, Mu Wan and Mu Cheng also heard the name Xu Chen and came over. Li Li apologized to the teacher for disturbing them and then hung up the phone. She said to Mu Cheng, "Old Mu, do you remember Xu Chen? He scored 716 points this time." Mu Cheng and his daughter were stunned. "Really? I remember he didn't like studying back then?" Mu Cheng was particularly puzzled. Mu Wan's eyes went unfocused; she suddenly recalled her impatience and questioning of Xu Chen at the beginning of the semester. She fell silent, lost in thought. Li Li said, "It seems we were both wrong."
Mu Cheng fell silent. Years ago, to stop Xu Chen, that纨绔 (playboy), from harassing his daughter, he risked offending his superiors by personally going to the mayor's house to plead with Xu Jianguo and Wang Rong to control their son. Now it seemed he had misjudged him. In the eyes of their generation, good grades meant a person was good in every way. Xu Chen's grades had soared, and this success overshadowed any flaws, instantly elevating his image. Li Li looked at her daughter: "Wanwan, has Xu Chen changed a lot since he came back?" Mu Wan nodded. "Yes, he's changed a lot. Compared to his former纨绔, he's like a completely different person. He's gentle and polite, all those bad habits are gone, his clothing is simpler now, his grades are steadily improving, and... and... he hasn't bothered me anymore." As Mu Wan said this, for some reason, she felt very sad.
