Chapter 220 The Wife-Chasing Crematorium
Wang Fengzi opened the lid, smelled the fragrance of the spiritual spring water, and looked completely intoxicated.
"It's been a long time since I've smelled such a spiritual spring. Your ancestors certainly left you a wonderful thing."
Your water is useful to mortals, but not very useful to me. Nevertheless, I thank you for your kindness, Junior Sister.
Jiang Ruzhen watched as Wang Fengzi waved his sleeve, and all the large buckets of water on the table disappeared.
She asked in surprise, "Is this the space for you cultivators?"
Wang Fengzi nodded, amusedly looking at Jiang Ruzhen's agape mouth, "Don't you have it on you too? Why are you so surprised?"
Jiang Ruzhen chuckled foolishly, when someone suddenly interrupted from the side.
"Junior sister, don't believe your senior brother. There's a hidden compartment under this table, and the space isn't even as big as a toilet. Don't be fooled by him."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ruzhen looked in the direction of the voice and saw that Jin Sheng had arrived at some point. He strode up to the pavilion and sat down next to the two of them.
"Senior brother, junior sister is simple-minded, don't tease her all the time."
When Wang Fengzi saw Jin Sheng, his inscrutable expression instantly crumbled, and he muttered curses.
"You have a mouth, can't you let me show off in front of my junior sister? Humph, you're ruining my mood, annoying."
Wang Fengzi lifted his leg and walked away, his body swaying three times before disappearing into the mist.
Jin Sheng shook his head helplessly, turned to look at Jiang Ruzhen's bewildered expression, and explained.
"Although my senior brother is a bit unruly, what he just told you is true. However, there's one thing he didn't mention. Ever since he deleted the memories of that otherworldly soul, he's suffered a backlash from the Heavenly Dao."
His mind was sometimes clear, sometimes insane. For so many years, his second and third senior brothers had been searching the world for elixirs and immortality techniques for him, but without much progress.
"Then my spiritual spring water..." Jiang Ruzhen sighed inwardly, wondering if her spiritual spring water could be of any help.
Jin Sheng shook his head. "If it were useful, I would have come to you long ago. However, something is better than nothing. Your spiritual spring water can indeed alleviate Senior Brother's condition and buy him some time."
I am very grateful for your trust in us and your generosity.
Looking at Jin Sheng's solemn expression, Jiang Ruzhen felt a lump in her throat. "You are all unsung heroes. It is you who have been carrying the burden for our country and people to live a happy life."
What I did was the simplest of operations; compared to your numerous acts of righteousness in saving the country from peril, it's child's play.
Jin Sheng shook his head disapprovingly, "Junior Sister, you don't need to belittle yourself. Your rebirth saved your family and led to a new breakthrough in our country's physics field, allowing science and technology to leap forward by decades."
And your two eldest sons, whom you raised, are both business elites who have propelled the economy of the North forward at a rapid pace for more than a decade.
Your daughter is also shining brightly in the media industry, and is clearly a new generation of news leaders. Your youngest son is exceptionally outstanding in all aspects and has become a key talent for the Air Force that the country is cultivating.
Even Lu Mingzheng, whom you rescued, is a top-level pilot of the country, a god-like figure in my country's air force.
Without your knowledge, you have been quietly reversing the fate of these people, thus making our motherland stronger.
You truly deserve a lot of credit.
Seeing Jin Sheng's sincere face, Jiang Ruzhen was greatly encouraged. This sense of accomplishment from being affirmed by others filled her with excitement.
"Understood, Fourth Senior Brother. I will work even harder in the future, and I will do my best when the country needs me."

In the past few days, Shen Shuxin noticed that her mother smiled more and her mood was no longer so heavy.
It's as if a huge boulder that has been weighing on you for years has been lifted, and you instantly stand tall, with a more confident and radiant look in your eyes.
When the two of them ate together, not only did other teachers and classmates frequently look at them, but she herself would also unconsciously have all her attention drawn to her mother.
My mom is getting more and more beautiful.
Shen Shuxin looked at the endless stream of boys who were attracted to her and asked for her contact information, and then at her mother's face, which was about to get angry, and couldn't help but smile secretly.
"Laugh, what are you laughing at? You think you have few suitors? I heard that a lot of the guys in your department went crazy when they found out you and Xie Hui broke up?"
As soon as Jiang Ruzhen finished speaking, Shen Shuxin sighed.
"Mom, stop talking. I regret breaking up with Xie Hui. I don't know what those boys are thinking. We came here to learn knowledge and serve our country in the future. All they do is talk about love. What kind of future do they have?"
“You really regret it? Then there’s still a chance to salvage the situation,” Jiang Ruzhen suddenly said.
"A chance to save it? What chance?" Shen Shuxin asked, puzzled.
Jiang Ruzhen raised her chin and pointed to a familiar figure at the entrance of the cafeteria. Shen Shuxin turned around and looked over, her expression changing drastically.
She packed her things and got up to leave, but Xie Hui, who had rushed over, grabbed her wrist.
"Xin Xin, can you please stop avoiding me? Let's talk, okay? Please."
Jiang Ruzhen looked at Xie Hui in front of her. Although his legs had recovered, he seemed to have suffered a severe mental shock.
His face was sallow, and his eyes were dark-circled, like a drug addict who had been staying up for several nights.
With a stubble beard and messy hair, his former handsome and sunny demeanor had turned into a gloomy and somber one.
"Let go, Xie Hui. We've broken up. I have nothing to talk to you about." Shen Shuxin didn't want to see Xie Hui at all and glared at him angrily.
Xie Hui blocked her path in anguish, desperately trying to explain.
"Xin Xin, I was really wrong. I shouldn't have broken up with you just so I wouldn't be a burden to you. I'm an idiot, I'm a piece of trash."
I'm not good enough for you, but could you give me a chance to pursue you again, and let's start over?
Upon hearing this, Shen Shuxin sneered repeatedly, "Xie Hui, who do you think you are? Are you the sun, and we all have to revolve around you?"
Do you think you're an emperor who, as long as you admit your mistakes, everyone has to unconditionally forgive you and be grateful for your special treatment?
You're absolutely right, you're a bastard, scum, trash, get out of my way. I feel like I'm suffocating just breathing the same air as you.
Shen Shuxin was truly furious this time. The hospital clearly said that Xie Hui's leg was beyond saving, yet Xie Hui still resolutely chose to break up with her, leaving her heartbroken and severely damaged.
Just when Xie Hui felt like he was living in hell and wishing he were dead, he suddenly left the hospital full of energy, saying that he had been saved by special medicine and that his leg was completely fine.
He can be with her again.
Do you treat her like a plaything? Someone to be summoned and dismissed at will?
Whether he's disabled or dead, it has nothing to do with her.
She didn't want to like this fickle jerk.
She's really had enough.
"Godmother, please help me persuade Xin Xin. I really know I was wrong."
Having no other choice, Xie Hui turned to Jiang Ruzhen for help. Jiang Ruzhen snorted and got up to leave.
"I told you you'd regret it, Xie Hui. You'll regret not listening to your elders..."
Seeing his godmother's completely indifferent attitude, and feeling utterly disgusted with him, Xie Hui was utterly despondent. He suddenly knelt down in front of all the students in the cafeteria.
Shen Shuxin was startled by him. She jumped up, kicked Xie Hui over, and ran away.
You're insane!
Good heavens!
