Chapter 378: Promise



In the darkness of the night, a car was driving fast on the road.

Zhan Yihan glanced at Su Jinyue with a smile. "What made you want to set up a planting base in Licheng?" Jinyue had told him about the idea of a planting base yesterday, but he was a little confused as to why Jinyue chose Licheng instead of Hecheng. Hecheng was closer to the Medical Valley, making it much easier for the people in the Medical Valley to manage it.

"Yifeng and Xiaoyun are getting married soon, and he doesn't even have a stable job. I want Yifeng to be in charge of the herb cultivation base, and I'll have Qiuyu assist him," Su Jinyue said. Qin Haoran's business is now very large, and Yifeng is a strong-willed man. He certainly doesn't want to rely on Xiaoyun's father. If he has his own business, he can hold his head high in front of Xiaoyun's parents.

Zhan Yihan reached out and held Su Jinyue's hand, gazing at her with eyes full of affection and tenderness. Jinyue always thought about him, how could he not be moved?

Su Jinyue smiled back and rested her head on Zhan Yihan's shoulder. There was no need for gratitude between them, nor did they need many words; they both understood.

After getting out of the car, Su Jinyue saw that the lights in the clinic were still on. Yihan always sneaked into her room in the middle of the night. If he swaggered into her room, no matter how good Zhan Yihan was, he would be swept out by his master with a broom.

Su Jinyue walked into the clinic and saw Aunt Hu from the village sitting there with a look of anxiety on her face. Nearby, Gu Qiuyu was supporting Aunt Hu's grandson's head and neck with his hands, patting his back between his shoulder blades. It seemed like something was stuck in the child's throat.

"Doctor Su, please help my Xiaofei. He has a peanut stuck in his throat." Seeing Su Jinyue, Aunt Hu immediately felt like she saw hope. Gu Qiuyu had only come to the clinic a few years ago, and she was so young that she was really worried.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Su Jinyue walked over to Aunt Hu and comforted her. Although Qiuyu was young, she was from the Medical Valley and her medical skills were better than her master and Fang Zhihong.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaofei spat out a peanut from his mouth, and then he was heard crying "Wow!"

"Aunt Hu, Xiaofei is fine now." Gu Qiuyu held Xiaofei to Aunt Hu.

"Thank you, Dr. Gu! Thank you!" Aunt Hu took Xiao Fei and thanked him repeatedly. She had thought Dr. Gu's medical skills were not good enough, but it seemed that she had underestimated him.

After seeing off Aunt Hu and her grandson, Su Jinyue closed the door of the clinic.

"Fourth sister, have you had dinner yet?" Gu Qiuyu looked at Su Jinyue and asked. Fourth sister had been busy with Gong Xiaoyun and Zhan Yifeng's wedding these days, and wondered if she had time for dinner.

Su Jinyue smiled and nodded, glanced at the backyard, took out her packed medicinal food and handed it to Gu Qiuyu, "This is for you." She brought back three portions. Master and Fang Zhihong had already fallen asleep, so she could only wait until tomorrow morning to give them the food.

Gu Qiuyu opened the thermos and said, "It smells so good! Thank you, Fourth Sister."

Su Jinyue smiled and shook her head, "Go to bed early after dinner, I'm going in."

"Okay." Gu Qiuyu smiled and nodded.

The morning sunlight shines through the thin curtains into the room, and the chirping of birds can be heard outside.

Su Yanxi came out of his cultivation state, opened his eyes, stood up and walked outside refreshed.

In the yard, Lin Suwen and Bai Lina were talking and laughing, and Qu Yingli was listening to them with a smile.

"Yanxi, Yingli is looking for you." Seeing Su Yanxi coming out, Lin Suwen said to him.

Su Yanxi looked at Qu Yingli, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. Why is this girl here again? Does she want to become a disciple of the Medical Valley?

Qu Yingli stood up and walked in front of Su Yanxi, "I have something to tell you, can we go in and talk?"

Su Yanxi raised his eyebrows and turned to walk inside.

Qu Yingli hurried to catch up. No matter what, she asked Su Yanxi to let her become a disciple of Yigu today.

Lin Suwen withdrew her gaze and smiled mischievously, "Nana, do you think there's a chance?" The eldest son in her family already has a partner, and it would be even better if the second and third sons could also have a partner.

"It's possible." Bai Lina nodded with a smile. She had just spoken to Qu Yingli for a while and thought she was a pretty good person.

Su Yanxi pointed to the chair in front of him and motioned Qu Yingli to sit down.

Qu Yingli walked over to sit down across from Su Yanxi. "I came here today to ask you to help me become a disciple of the Medical Valley." She didn't know Su Yanxi's position within the Medical Valley, but he was the only disciple she knew. As for Lin Suwen and Bai Lina, they weren't from the Medical Valley. She probably knew Su Yanxi was visiting relatives. She only knew that the Medical Valley was one of the ten hidden sects, and that its disciples were highly skilled and well-versed in medicine. She knew nothing else.

Su Yanxi picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself a cup of tea. He took a sip and said slowly, "I still say the same thing. Why should I help you?"

Qu Yingli bit her lip. "As long as you're willing to help me, I'm willing to give you the family treasure map." She couldn't care less now and could only risk it all. For revenge, she was willing to pay any price, even her life.

Su Yanxi twirled the teacup in her hand with her slender fingers. "We in the Medical Valley have no precedent of accepting outsiders as disciples."

"I don't believe it!" Qu Yingli said. No sect would allow disciples to come and go as they pleased, let alone bring their families with them. If what Su Yanxi said was true, then wouldn't Lin Suwen and Bai Lina outside be from the Medical Valley?

"Believe it or not." Su Yanxi said indifferently.

Qu Yingli bit her lip and lowered her head in deep thought. After a long while, she raised her head and said, "I can marry you as long as you let me become a disciple of the Medical Valley."

Su Yanxi couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Qu Yingli's face turned red, "What are you laughing at? What's so funny?" It took a lot of courage for her to say this.

Su Yanxi stopped laughing and looked Qu Yingli up and down. "You have no face, no figure, why would I want you?" Qu Yingli was actually very beautiful, but he hadn't expected her to go to such extremes for revenge. They had only met once, and she was willing to give herself to him just to become a disciple of the Medical Valley.

"You!" Qu Yingli glared at Su Yanxi fiercely. He was so abominable. She was not as useless as he said.

"Please go back!" Su Yanxi said coldly. Whether she wanted revenge or to become a disciple of the sect, it had nothing to do with him. He was not a casual man. Even if he wanted to find a woman, he would only find one he loved. Otherwise, with his status, he could just beckon the female disciples of the Hidden Sect and they would flock to him.
