"I don't like inspirational stories..."
Looking at the chicken soup Zhang Mingyue handed him, Yang Lu didn't take it, but shook his head and said...
"It's alright, I still have pork rib soup here!"
Upon hearing Yang Lu say he didn't like chicken soup, Zhang Mingyue seemed to have already guessed it. She went straight to the kitchen and brought over a bowl of pork rib soup, then forcefully stuffed it into Yang Lu's hands, followed by a grin as she looked at him.
Yang Lu was speechless. To simply pick out the muscle, put in two braised pork ribs, and call that pork rib soup? Even Rong Momo from *Princess Pearl* probably wouldn't do something like that!
"Drink up! Mom's soup-making skills are absolutely amazing!"
At this moment, Nian Xixi also came out of the bathroom and happily said when she saw her mother bringing Yang Lu the pork rib soup.
To be honest, Nian Xixi was very happy to see that heartwarming moment! From now on, they are a family! When Dad comes back, they will be reunited.
"Okay, thank you, Mom!"
Since the atmosphere had already reached this point, it seemed impossible for him not to drink. So Yang Lu put the bowl to his mouth, ready to drink.
"Forget it, don't drink anymore. I'm not feeling well, I'm going to rest."
Just as Yang Lu was about to drink the bowl of hearty pork rib soup filled with love, Zhang Mingyue, who was standing next to him, suddenly snatched the soup from his hand, poured it directly down the drain, and then walked towards the bedroom with a disgruntled expression.
Seeing this, Yang Lu smiled to himself, thinking that his mother-in-law wasn't so bad after all!
Actually, the moment the soup was served, I already knew that she had added paraquat to it.
His mother-in-law seemed extremely dissatisfied with him, to the point that she wanted to poison him, but at the crucial moment, she probably couldn't bring herself to do it and switched the soup.
Yang Lu guessed correctly; Zhang Mingyue had indeed added paraquat to the soup. After all, his daughter had been kicked out of her family and targeted by the Fang and Huang families because of this fool. It was practically a death sentence for her!
Now, if she could just poison this guy, everything would be over. But at the crucial moment, she couldn't bear to do it, especially when she heard Yang Lu thank her; her heart completely softened.
"Mom, what's wrong? You were fine just now."
"It's none of your business! And besides, I don't acknowledge you as my husband!"
"Mom, how could you do this..."
"That's just how I am! You only just found out about me on this first day?! Humph!"
"Bang!"
After Zhang Mingyue finished speaking, she slammed her door shut.
Nian Xixi was stunned. How could her mother change her attitude so suddenly? She was completely baffled!
"Never mind, honey, you don't need to worry about my mom! Tonight we'll... consummate our marriage!"
Nian Xixi ignored her fickle mother and focused her gaze on Yang Lu, then blinked and said, "I've been waiting for this day for ten years! Tonight, you're mine!"
"Cough cough..."
"Honey, are you alright?"
Yang Lu, who was eating, coughed heavily after hearing Nian Xixi's words. He thought to himself, "Why do I feel like I'm being eaten by a tiger?"
"I guess I'll have to find a way to get some medicinal herbs and refine some pills tomorrow. I need to recover my strength as soon as possible!"
In the middle of the night, Yang Lu, who had just finished cultivating the Heavenly Meridian Technique, opened his eyes.
Although his cultivation speed is now ten times faster than before, his body is still too weak and he needs the aid of elixirs. He also needs to make some preparations; he wants to give Fang Suyun and that despicable couple, Huang Zhang, a little surprise on Friday!
As for why Nian Xixi didn't consummate the marriage with him tonight, it was because his cheap mother-in-law directly kicked him out to a small room and forced Nian Xixi to sleep with her.
It's obvious she's on guard against me! But then again, I really have to thank her this time.
After all, the most important thing in the early stages of cultivating the Heavenly Meridian Technique is to abstain from women! Otherwise, the later stages of cultivation will be very troublesome. This Heavenly Meridian Technique has nine levels in total. Back then, when I had only cultivated to the third level, I was already virtually unmatched in the world.
Actually, I once asked my master about the origin of this technique, and his answer was that I would know when I broke through to the fifth level.
I thought breaking through to the fifth level would be easy, but after actually practicing, I found it to be much more difficult. Last time, I almost died from a qi deviation while trying to break through!
Fortunately, this time the speed of his true qi circulation was ten times that of before, and he was confident that he could break through to the fifth level!
"Eat instant noodles if you're hungry! I don't have time to take care of you!"
The next morning, Zhang Mingyue tossed two packets of Nanjiecun instant noodles to Yang Lu, locked the door, and then left.
Early in the morning, her daughter went to Canglong Company to check on the situation. Before leaving, she asked her to take good care of the mentally challenged man.
Hmph, I was already being incredibly kind by not poisoning that idiot yesterday, and now you want me to take care of him?! No way!
"That's really nice of them, they left me two packs of instant noodles!"
Yang Lu looked at the two packets of instant noodles in front of him, smiled, and then climbed out of the window. He was going to the medicine street today.
Medicine Street, located north of Anzhou's city center, is surprisingly large in Anzhou, a place where land is extremely valuable. The buildings here are antique and elegant, with some said to be over a thousand years old.
In the Dragon Kingdom, Anzhou Medicine Street is a renowned place, one of the three major medicinal herb markets in the country, and ranked number one, known as the Medicine Capital!
