Chapter 179
He saw that Shen Luoying was probably nervous, but he didn't know what to say to Lin Qinghen at the moment.
There was originally a distance between the two people, and no one moved at first. There was silence for a while, and then Shen Luoying took a few steps forward hesitantly.
Lin Qinghen heard her speak softly: "I have to thank you for the divorce. And, Qinghen, I... I'm sorry."
Lin Qinghen was still worried that she would think he was fierce, but in fact, his character was exactly what Shen Luoying expected.
If she had acted more decisively like Lin Qinghen at the time, not been entangled by the mess, and had hurried back to the Shen family when she found out she was pregnant, insisting on divorce no matter what, and staying away from the Lin family's mess, perhaps the situation would not have turned out like this.
Lin Qinghen was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and replied, "It doesn't matter."
Then he took the initiative to move forward, paused, and then reached out to hug her and patted her back to comfort her.
Chen Luoying is a very good person. He can feel a strange yet gentle familial affection from this person.
The original owner died when he was six years old. Lin Qinghen thought it was a coincidence that he came here. The Lin family treated him badly, and he always felt like he was out of place. But when he saw the face under the birthmark that was very similar to his in his previous life, and now when he stood with Shen Luoying, he felt a strange throbbing from the bottom of his heart... maybe everything is destined.
At this time, everyone else knew what to do and just left, leaving this place to this ill-fated mother and son.
Yin Jiuxiao thought about it and wanted to leave, but Lin Qinghen moved his hand, turned around and grabbed him.
"Jiuxiao won't leave," Lin Qinghen looked back at him, took another step back, and then said, "Well, mother, I was just about to introduce him to you. He is Yin Jiuxiao, the current young master of the Yin family, and also... my husband."
Shen Luoying's eyes fell on their clasped hands.
Because of that hug, she was about to hold back her tears, but now that she looked at him, she had mixed feelings in her heart and immediately held back her tears.
...What is it like to wake up and find that your beautiful child is married? It's not a very good experience anyway.
And the first time I heard him call her mother, he was introducing her husband. I felt like my own cabbage was being taken away by someone else before I even had a closer look at it.
"All the things I experienced in the Lin family are really in the past. It's not my mother's fault, so relax and don't worry about it. They won't be able to bother you in the future," Lin Qinghen emphasized again, then looked at Yin Jiuxiao with a smile on his face, "Besides, you see, not all the things I encountered were bad."
At that time, she was indeed very reluctant to be married off, but now it seems to be his greatest good fortune, because because of this, he and Yin Jiuxiao had an intersection and got together.
It's a mutual affection and also destiny.
Shen Luoying looked at this and was silent for a while, then sighed and said, "Qinghen, you won't stay with me in the future, right?"
Her children have really grown up.
"Of course I will accompany you during this period, but when you have recovered, Jiuxiao and I will go back to Beizhou after all," Lin Qinghen said, and then blinked, "But if you want, you can go to Beizhou with me. It's very interesting there, and I think you will like it."
When he left Beizhou, he asked Mu Jiu to expand his garden. Today he received news from them saying that it has become quite large.
After dealing with these messy people outside, Lin Qinghen will definitely return to his accustomed research life in the future, which is his main job.
He also took on the responsibility of the Northern State Alchemist Association. As the president of the association, he had to constantly update the research progress and provide guidance or reference opinions to all the alchemists in the association in order to maintain the vitality of the association and last long.
There are too many Xuan-level prescriptions, and there are naturally many ways and methods to be improved, so there will be a lot of work to do in the future.
After Lin Qinghen completed the previous system task, some changes also occurred in his system.
Including the hidden rewards before, he now has four production lines in his backstage. Four copies of the Yellow Grade Pill Recipe, the output speed has been suppressed to an extremely low level, the supply volume has been steadily increasing, five copies of the Earth Grade Pill Recipe, plus Lin Qinghen's 23% bonus, although the pharmaceutical level is not high, but in terms of quality and speed, Lin Qinghen's significance is no less than that of a Heaven Grade Nine Star Alchemist.
The system's antidote had been given out, and the advanced task stage had been completed. After a period of upgrading, the system prompted him that it had entered the advanced stage.
In the future, the system will no longer require him to do anything based on the task situation, but will require the host to give full play to his subjective initiative, draw inferences from one instance to another, and strive to promote the overall improvement of the spiritual world's ability to refine medicine.
Therefore, the system's task interface has now been changed to a points system, and he can freely choose his research direction.
Lin Qinghen looked at it carefully. No matter if he improved the pill formula or any raw materials, as long as it was the kind of replicable and popularizable results, they could be put here in the task interface for testing.
The system will calculate points for him based on the degree of improvement and actual utility. The points can be exchanged for various rewards, including natural affinity, pill recipes that he can produce on the crafting table, or new production lines, but the prices are not cheap.
Lin Qinghen tried it, not everything has to be put in it, a Xuan-level pill recipe with an improvement of about 10% can be exchanged for a few points. And a point of natural affinity is 100 points, and the price will increase in the future. After all, the higher the bonus, the more difficult it will be.
The price of a Xuan-level pill recipe that can be posted in the backstage ranges from thirty to fifty points, and a new production line costs five hundred.
As expected, life never stops, and research never stops. According to the system's asking price, Lin Qinghen's future work will be quite fulfilling.
He had heard from Zhang Fu that Chen Luoying was also interested in this research. If she recovered and wanted to do something, she could do it with him. If she didn't want to be tired, the environment in Beizhou was recovering, and Leicheng was originally a beautiful place. She could live there for retirement, whatever she wanted.
Shen Luoying was really interested when she heard Lin Qinghen describe the situation in Beizhou. Her eyes lit up and she said, "Okay."
She has never been an idle young lady. If it weren't for the engagement she had made since childhood and her slightly poor health, it would be hard to say who would become the head of the family between her and Shen Luofei.
Chen Luoying herself is an extremely talented alchemist. She was at the eighth level of the Heavenly Rank before she fell asleep. Once she has recovered, she will follow Lin Qinghen to Beizhou, where she will be the highest-level alchemist and a powerful aid to the Beizhou Alchemist Association.
Lin Qinghen recognized his mother and beat Lin Zhongtian up. He was naturally in a good mood, so he talked to Shen Luoying for a while, told her about his research direction in detail, and let her go to bed early. Then he was caught by Yin Jiuxiao.
The Shen family arranged his residence in a small courtyard very close to Shen Luoying, just opposite the door. As soon as Lin Qinghen came out of the room, Yin Jiuxiao hugged her back to his own residence. Before the door was closed tightly, he pressed her on the bed and kissed her.
“…What are you doing?!”
Lin Qinghen was panting, and it took him a long time to catch his breath. He felt that he had made his body go limp, and he couldn't get up. Then he glared at him again.
"Keep your voice down!" he said, "My mother has just fallen asleep, you might wake her up."
He always felt that Yin Jiuxiao had been going crazy in fits during this period, and no one could bear it.
Yin Jiuxiao, however, held his waist tightly, lowered his head and bit the corner of Lin Qinghen's lips, saying, "I have been worried about your reunion, and I have endured it for a long time. Now I don't want to endure it anymore. Qinghen, be good, call me again?"
Lin Qinghen: "What's your name?"
"Husband."
Lin Qinghen: ...
How come he still remembers?
Not only was it the first time for Shen Luoying to hear him introduce this title, but it was also the first time for Yin Jiuxiao to hear it.
Where had Lin Qinghen called him before? For a long time at the beginning, he was still stubborn and believed that he was married to Yin Jiuxiao. He was very thoughtful and spoiled the other party as his wife. Moreover, he had been suppressed for a long time and had not changed this mentality.
Besides, he usually called him "Jiuxiao", and he had never called him by this name. Yin Jiuxiao had not paid attention to this detail before, but when Lin Qinghen said this, he could not bear it. That night, he insisted that Lin Qinghen make up for what he had missed before.
Lin Qinghen always spoiled him, even though she was shy, after he teased her for a while, she still went along with him and called out a few times softly. But later, this man became more and more excited, and he felt that something was wrong.
It turns out that wolves cannot be fed too much, otherwise they will be the only ones to suffer.
The next day, Shen Luoying, who was in poor health, got up, but Lin Qinghen hadn't gotten up yet. Yin Jiuxiao woke up early, closed the door quietly, and explained, "He's too tired, let him sleep later."
Shen Luoying: “…Oh.”
She was not stupid and she knew what this meant as soon as she saw the situation.
Looking at the expression on Yin Jiuxiao's face...the feeling of having one's own cabbage taken away is indeed even stronger.
Lin Qinghen lived in the Shen family for half a month. In addition to taking care of Shen Luoying and dealing with Yin Jiuxiao, he also took care of business.
Now that all identities have been made clear, the cooperation with the Shen family and Fuxin Miaofa seems to be more solid.
But the issue of the supply of Xuan-grade elixirs has not been discussed yet. Die Meng had used this to fish in Suyexian Mountain before, but in terms of the real channel, Lin Qinghen still chose them.
In the previous cooperation, the Shen family paid more. Leng Qiuyue was secretly happy at the time, thinking that she had picked up a big bargain. Now, she saw that Lin Qinghen was waiting for them here.
The existence of Diemeng Pharmacy is not a big deal, the main thing is another identity that Lin Qinghen has revealed - the president of the Beizhou Alchemist Association.
In the past, all the alchemists in the entire spiritual world were managed by the Fuxintang. After the incident in Beizhou, they lost contact and had to become independent. But now that Beizhou's alchemy has risen, they have their own association, which naturally has to be distinguished from the Fuxintang. If you think about it carefully, there are many conflicts here.
So from the beginning, it wasn't that Fu Xin Miao Fa was lucky, it was that Lin Qinghen had set his sights on them early on. Under such a cooperative relationship, a lot of friction was reduced, and Leng Qiuyue was willing to sit down and have a good discussion with him, which was actually paving the way for the Beizhou Alchemist Association.
