Chapter 341 I never imagined the person I looked down on would have such a terrifying identity [3 updates + a sweet little skit]
The kneeling and bowing of Ling Dan and Ling Shuang made Shi Fengyi lose her grip on the silver needles, almost causing them to pierce her own body.
"You guessed right, how did you know he was the head of the Ling family?" Just then, Jiang Huaping added insult to injury to Shi Fengyi, "If I didn't know better, I would have thought you were one of those fortune tellers from the Fifth Family."
On the ground, Ye Suhe was pinned down by Jiang Huaping's foot and couldn't move, her ears ringing.
Both the Ling family and the fifth family were beyond Ye Suhe's comprehension.
She had never even heard of these two families, yet Jiang Huaping could name them off the top of her head.
Even if Ye Suhe was foolish, she could tell that the Ling family was a very powerful ancient martial arts family.
Jiang Huaping, whom she always thought was incapable of achieving anything, turned out to be the matriarch of the Ling family!
She even wanted to take her place.
What an utter joke!
Ye Suhe found it hard to breathe; she felt as if all the clothes covering her body had been torn off, leaving her utterly humiliated.
She never imagined that Jiang Huaping, whom she looked down upon, would have such a terrifying identity.
Shi Fengyi stared at the middle-aged man in shock, taking a step back: "You...you are Ling Chonglou?!"
Ling Chonglou, the head of the Ling family!
Although Shi Fengyi has been away from the world of ancient medicine for decades, she will not go to the world of ancient martial arts in order to avoid those ancient medical families looking for her.
However, she still manages to learn some information, such as the power shifts within ancient martial arts and medical families.
The middle-aged man exuded an aura of power accumulated over many years, a kind of oppressive presence that no ordinary martial arts practitioner could possess.
Shi Fengyi never expected that the head of the Ling family would personally come to Shanghai.
"Xiao Hua." Ling Chonglou stepped forward and, after confirming that Jiang Huaping was not injured, his gaze fell entirely on Shi Fengyi.
He stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an imposing aura without anger, and said calmly, "I am Ling Chonglou."
"Impossible!" Shi Fengyi took a step back, refusing to believe it. She was all bark and no bite. "If you were the head of the Ling family, would you marry an ordinary person? What a joke!"
To become the head of an ancient martial arts family, one must be the best among their generation.
After all, in the world of ancient martial arts, strength is what matters. Without strength, one cannot even hold the position of family head, let alone manage the entire family.
Let alone the head of the family, even the core disciples of other geniuses would not marry outsiders.
Talented ancient martial arts practitioners will only marry other talented ancient martial arts practitioners, so that their offspring will have even greater talent.
If Ling Chonglou marries an ordinary woman who cannot even cultivate ancient martial arts, wouldn't that be no different from cutting off his own lineage?
“Shi Fengyi, you really know how to hide.” Ling Chonglou did not answer the question, but instead said, “If your daughter hadn’t exposed your whereabouts, the ancient medical community would probably never have caught you.”
These words were like a slap in the face to Ye Suhe.
She could hardly believe it: "Daughter?"
She was actually Shi Fengyi's daughter?
No wonder that an ancient physician like Shi Fengyi would impart knowledge to her and help her.
Beads of cold sweat trickled down Shi Fengyi's forehead; she was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
"After obtaining that sachet, I had Chonglou send it to the ancient medical community." Jiang Huaping looked coldly at Shi Fengyi. "The ancient medical community confirmed that this is a prescription that only you would concoct."
"So Chonglou and I came up with a plan to use Ye Suhe to lure you out."
Ancient medical circles have always prohibited the use of medicinal materials that can affect a person's mind and consciousness, not to mention other vicious methods such as face transplantation.
Shi Fengyi was one of them.
Although she looks only in her sixties, she is actually over one hundred years old.
Like alchemy, ancient medicine could extend lifespan through a series of methods such as medicinal herbs and acupuncture, but at most it could only reach the limits of human lifespan.
Scientific research indicates that with the continuous development of medical technology, the average human lifespan is very likely to exceed 150 years in the future.
In fact, modern traditional medicine is already capable of realizing this future.
Jiang Huaping smiled, then looked down at Ye Suhe, whose face was pale: "I deliberately said those things to provoke you, but I didn't expect you to actually be pushed to the limit."
Her smile turned cold: "Jiang Moyuan was sent to jail, do you think I'd let you off the hook after all the heinous things you've done?"
It was all a trap from beginning to end.
It's simply a matter of luring someone into a trap.
"Ling Dan, Ling Shuang, send her to the Fu family," Ling Chonglou said. "Tell them I want their new beauty-enhancing pill."
Ling Dan and Ling Shuang exchanged a glance, feeling as if they had been dealt a critical blow.
The Fu family's newly released beauty-preserving pill can not only maintain youthful appearance, but also extend the lifespan of ordinary people by twenty years.
One strict condition is that only women can experience this effect.
The elders of the Fu family spent a year researching and only managed to produce one.
It goes without saying who Ling Chonglou is coming for.
"The Fu family?" Shi Fengyi panicked. "No, you can't hand me over to the Fu family!"
If she were sent back to the Fu family, she would suffer unprecedented torment.
"You have no choice." Ling Chonglou raised his hand, pressed down on Shi Fengyi's shoulder, and released a surge of powerful internal energy, sealing her acupoints.
Shi Fengyi was an ancient physician, and naturally possessed internal strength.
But now, her internal energy is sealed, and she can't even use silver needles.
Shi Fengyi was even more shocked: "Your cultivation level..."
Ling Chonglou is only in his forties, which is very young among ancient martial arts practitioners.
However, Shi Fengyi could sense that Ling Chonglou's internal strength was even more profound than that of an ancient martial artist she had once encountered who had cultivated for eighty years.
Ling Chonglou didn't say anything more to Shi Fengyi: "Take him away."
Ling Dan and Ling Shuang stepped forward and restrained Shi Fengyi.
Just then, the door to the rented room was kicked open again.
No, he was kicked down directly.
An angry voice came from inside.
"Let go of my mother, or I'll kick your dog heads off, I—"
Jiang Ran's words were given to the cardholder.
With a "thud," the hammer in his hand fell to the ground, striking his foot with perfect accuracy.
grass.
Why did he suddenly receive a barrage of cold, fluffy messages of affection the moment he walked in?
Jiang Ran's expression was very sour: "Mr. Ling and Ms. Jiang, when you're being affectionate, please be mindful of the impact on the child."
"You brat, come here." Ling Chonglou released Jiang Huaping and chuckled. "You've really grown up. You know how to protect your mother now."
Jiang Ran snorted coldly, not wanting to pay him any attention.
"Your internal energy went berserk last time, and you were in a very bad situation." Ling Chonglou paused, then asked, "Do you know who saved you?"
Jiang Ran paused for a moment, then pursed his lips and said, "I don't know."
He trusted Ling Chonglou, but walls have ears, and no one knew what trouble it might cause Ying Zijing.
His riot was so violent that even the most renowned families in the ancient medical world couldn't cure it.
Jiang Ran knew very well what should be said and what shouldn't be said.
“I don’t know that you would.” Ling Chonglou patted his head, like two good brothers, and put his big hand around his neck. “Come on, Dad will treat you to dinner. Let’s invite a few of your close friends too.”

Qingzhi Middle School.
Class 19.
Jiang Ran didn't come to class this morning.
This would have been normal in the past, but now Xiu Yu suspects that something might have happened to him.
She frowned: "Father Ying, this guy borrowed my race car, is he going to crash and die?"
Ying Zijing frowned: "I'll make a phone call."
Her divine calculation abilities had not recovered, and she was unable to determine Jiang Ran's exact location.
As soon as the call connected, an excited voice came from the other end.
"Father! My dear father!"
Ying Zijing hung up the phone without hesitation.
The cheerful tone suggested that nothing was wrong.
She could even imagine how happily Jiang Ran's tail was wagging.
A few seconds later, Ying Zijing's phone rang again.
This time it was Jiang Huaping who called.
"Young Jin, Jiang Ran's father is here. If you have time, we'd like to invite you, Xiao Yunshen, and Xiao Yu to have a meal together, as a family gathering. What do you think?"
“Sure.” Ying Zijin raised an eyebrow. “Just tell me the time and place.”
"Let's do it tonight," Jiang Huaping said. "It's at Zuiyin Fenglin, a vegetarian restaurant. If you don't like the food, we can change it."
"It's okay, I'm fine with anything." After noting down the location and time, Ying Zijing sent a WeChat message to Fu Yunshen.
"Looks like Jiang Ran still hasn't escaped his father's pursuit." Xiu Yu clicked his tongue. "I'm so happy to get a free meal today."
After school in the afternoon, Ying Zijing and Xiu Yu walked together.
As they left the school, the two ran into Ying Yuexuan, but neither of them paid any attention to her.
Ying Yuexuan gripped the strap of her backpack and walked to a car.
There stood a noblewoman.
Ying Yuexuan addressed her as "Madam Yuan".
After she sent the computer program to Madam Yuan, Meng Ru, Meng Ru came to Shanghai in person.
Meng Ru also admires Ying Yuexuan and plans to mentor her.
"School's out." Meng Ru nodded, her attitude still quite friendly. "I'll take you to see a computer science professor from Imperial University. Get in the car."
"Madam Yuan, wait a moment." Ying Yuexuan finally made a decision. "I have something to ask my sister."
"That adopted daughter?" Meng Ru followed Ying Yuexuan's gaze and was stunned by her beauty. "She's really pretty."
As she spoke, she shook her head again.
What's the use of being good-looking?
Unlike Ying Yuexuan, who knows computer programming.
Meng Ru glanced at it and lost interest.
Ying Yuexuan quickly stepped forward and stopped Ying Zijin: "Sister, have you seen your brother? I need to talk to him. Could you please tell him?"
Ever since Ying Tianlu fired the housekeeper and said those words that day, Ying Yuexuan has felt an unprecedented sense of fear.
She felt as if she had completely lost a loved one.
Ying Yuexuan was truly in pain.
Ying Tianlu used to treat her very well, and such a change in attitude would be unbearable for anyone.
Ying Zijing didn't even look up, and walked straight past Ying Yuexuan.
Xiu Yu was naturally even less inclined to pay attention.
Meng Ru narrowed her eyes, stepped forward, and looked at the girl indifferently: "Your sister greeted you and asked for your help, but you ignored her. How rude! Is this the kind of upbringing you have?"
Sorry, Brother Fu couldn't come out today, so let's have a little extra episode.
[Mini Theater]
A long, long time later, long enough that Fu Xiaotuanzi was already three years old.
The sun is shining brightly today, perfect for an outing.
Fu Xiaotuanzi has always been well-behaved, and her biological clock is more punctual than an alarm clock.
After getting up early, she would also help her parents with housework.
After Fu Xiaotuanzi happily finished wiping her table, she heard her father calling her.
"Little friend, the sun is shining on your bottom, it's time to get up and have breakfast."
Upon hearing this, Fu Xiaotuanzi ran over and raised her hand, saying, "Daddy, I got up early and washed my hands."
Fu Yunshen gently rubbed Ying Zijing's head as she slept, his voice soft: "I'm calling you Mom."
Fu Xiaotuanzi: "..."
(I'm never talking to Daddy again ┭┮﹏┭┮)
