After leaving the Tang Family Ancestral Home, the three women strolled leisurely along the main road.

Tang Yurou and Zheng Siqi had no idea what Liu Yue was looking for, nor why she had to stop in front of every lamppost they encountered, meticulously scrutinizing it each time.

Luckily, persistence paid off.

After nearly an hour of aimless wandering, Liu Yue suddenly let out an exclamation, immediately drawing the attention of the other two women.

Tang Yurou and Zheng Siqi took quick little steps toward her, only to see Liu Yue pointing at a small ad plastered on a lamppost.

With an air of triumph, she said, “See?

I told you I wasn’t imagining things.

I really did see this before when we passed by!”

Tang Yurou followed the direction of Liu Yue’s finger to look at the ad.

The colorful print, clearly made with no small expense, featured bold, shameless slogans like “Old Military Doctor,” “Irresistible Desire,” “Three Days Three Nights,” and “As Hard As an Iron Rod.” Tang Yurou’s face flushed red instantly, and she quickly averted her gaze in embarrassment.

“This… this thing, are we sure it’s legit?

It feels like a total scam to me,” Tang Yurou hesitated to ask.

Zheng Siqi nodded in agreement, saying, “I don’t think it sounds very reliable either…”

“But do you have any other ideas?

This is the only lead we’ve found so far.

The other option is to go back and ask Lu Chuan to concoct some aphrodisiacs for Yurou to take.”

“…”

Could they do that?

Of course not!

That would be no different from walking into a trap!

At Liu Yue’s suggestion, Tang Yurou and Zheng Siqi exchanged uneasy looks.

Resigning to a “nothing to lose” mindset, the three decided to jot down the phone number on the ad and dial it on the spot.

To their surprise, the call actually connected after a few rings.

“Who’s this?”

“Umm… do you still sell the medicine?”

“Of course!

What kind are you looking for?”

“The one… the one that makes men… you know, ‘irresistible.'”

Tang Yurou was already too mortified to lift her head.

Her voice was so soft it was almost inaudible.

The “Old Military Doctor” on the other end had to ask her to repeat herself three times before finally understanding her request.

“Ohhh, you mean that medicine?

Yes, still in stock.

Little girl, is your boyfriend having… issues in that department?”

“Just sell the medicine and stop asking so many questions!”

“Heh heh, alright, fine.

You’re in Qingyang City, right?

Here’s the deal: Meet me near Qingyang People’s Park tomorrow at 1 PM.

Ten thousand per dose—it works instantly.”

“Got it.”

Tang Yurou hastily agreed and hung up the call, then turned to look at Zheng Siqi and Liu Yue.

“It seems… probably okay?”

“Hard to say, but let’s just be cautious when the time comes.

It should be fine,” Zheng Siqi replied thoughtfully.

“It’s our only choice now.”

The meeting was set for 1 PM the next day.

Truth be told, Tang Yurou felt a flutter of anticipation about it.

Not because she was looking forward to meeting the sketchy medicine seller, of course, but because once she had the medicine, she could finally take that next step with Brother Lu Chuan.

Still…

“Three days and three nights?

Isn’t that… too much?”

Tang Yurou wasn’t entirely sure she could handle it.

“Yurou, what are you mumbling about over there?”

In the courtyard pavilion, Lu Chuan had noiselessly approached Tang Yurou from behind, his curiosity piqued by her muttering.

“Lu—Lu Chuan!

When did you get here?!”

“About thirty seconds ago?

Yurou, are you okay?

Is there something wrong with your health?”

“Nothing!

I’m fine!

Bye, Lu Chuan!”

Afraid she might accidentally spill the beans in front of him, Tang Yurou awkwardly stood up and fled the scene in haste.

Watching her leave, Lu Chuan was more perplexed than ever.

“This girl’s behavior is way too suspicious.”

Normally, whenever Tang Yurou saw him, she would cling to him and get all handsy.

This was the first time she’d ever acted so calm and distant.

“Could she still be mad about what happened earlier today?”

Lu Chuan scratched the tip of his nose, but ultimately decided not to dwell on it too much.

The next morning, however, when he ran into Tang Yurou again, she immediately bolted, not even giving him a chance to utter a single word.

The pain of silent treatment!

Lu Chuan’s outstretched hand froze mid-air, his usual warm smile stiffening on his face as he silently watched Tang Yurou disappear into the distance.

If he was merely confused yesterday, now Lu Chuan was almost certain.

“Tang Yurou is definitely up to something.”

Either she was hiding something from him, or she was cooking up some kind of scheme.

Meanwhile, over at the other side, Tang Yurou had successfully regrouped with Zheng Siqi and Liu Yue, but she was an absolute nervous wreck.

“I ran into Brother Lu Chuan again just now!

I was so scared I thought my heart would stop.

I didn’t dare say a single word and just ran.

Do you think he’s mad at me?”

Tang Yurou buried her face in her hands in frustration.

Seeing Brother Lu Chuan always made her happy, of course, but she dreaded that in her excitement, she might spill everything she shouldn’t.

Yet running away like that without saying a word could also make him angry or upset with her.

Tang Yurou’s emotions were a tangled mess.

“Honestly, the more you act like this, the guiltier you’re going to seem.

Lu Chuan is probably already suspicious of you,” Zheng Siqi said, rubbing her temples in exasperation.

She was starting to feel defeated by Tang Yurou’s antics.

How could a usually clever girl turn into such a bumbling fool as soon as something involved Lu Chuan?

It was as though her intelligence dropped to zero the moment his name came up.

Given this, it was already surprising that Tang Yurou hadn’t managed to “catch” Lu Chuan yet.

If she ever did succeed, wouldn’t she have him wrapped around her finger?

Wait…

Come to think of it, wasn’t he already completely at her beck and call?

“Anyway, it’s time for us to head out soon.

Once we have the medicine, we’ll put our plan into action right away!”

“Got it!”

Outside the room, Lu Chuan had heard every word of the women’s conversation.

Not that he had intended to eavesdrop—it’s just that their “secret plotting” was so loud, he could hear it clearly from over ten meters away.

Could anyone fault his sharp hearing?

After reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, Lu Chuan’s body had far surpassed that of an ordinary person.

His senses were extraordinarily sharp; if he wanted, he could even hear every sound within the Tang Family Ancestral Home.

Not that he normally felt the need to.

Listening to too much could lead to unnecessary complications.

For example, one time when he happened to pass by Tang Shouli’s room, he unintentionally found out that his supposedly upright uncle-in-law wasn’t quite as upright as his name suggested.

Wouldn’t sharing such a revelation just make things unbearably awkward for everyone involved?

But the phrase “get the medicine” immediately raised Lu Chuan’s alarm.

Just as he had suspected, Tang Yurou was indeed scheming something.

But the fragments of information he had overheard were still too vague for him to draw any conclusions.

“Forget it.

I’ll just follow them later and see what they’re up to.”

Soon, the door creaked open slightly, and Tang Yurou stuck her head out cautiously, scanning her surroundings.

Once she was sure no one was paying attention, the three women slipped out of the room one after another, carefully leaving the Tang Family Ancestral Home.

Naturally, Lu Chuan, who had been napping on a tree branch nearby, noticed their movements right away and slowly opened his eyes.
