93: Chapter 93 I Want to Do Something Big_1 93: Chapter 93 I Want to Do Something Big_1 After a while, Lu Chuan got up from the ground, stared at the “carbonized” Yun Zhonghe for a moment, then gave him a kick into the pit that he had fallen into earlier and buried him with soil.

He did some processing of the scene and, making sure that no one else had discovered anything, hastily left.

Back at Hanging Gourd Medical Hall, Mu Nanqing saw Lu Chuan’s pale face and weary expression and quickly ran over to ask about the situation.

Xiaoyue also came over with a face full of concern, asking Lu Chuan what was wrong.

Lu Chuan perfunctorily said he had just drunk too much and it was nothing serious, then hurried back to his room to recover.

Even though Yun Zhonghe was destroyed by the Thunder Power of the Purple Cloud Pearl, the punch he gave Lu Chuan had left him seriously injured.

Lu Chuan had to recover quickly, ensuring that nobody would notice anything unusual.

After all, the death of Yun Zhonghe was big news for the whole of Cloud City, though it might not be discovered by anyone for the time being.

However, the prolonged absence of such a significant figure would inevitably raise suspicions.

Moreover, since Yun Zhonghe had been sent by Long Tianya, if Long Tianya couldn’t contact Yun Zhonghe, he would definitely sense something was amiss.

Thus, Lu Chuan could not let anyone know that Yun Zhonghe’s death was connected to him, or Long Tianya would surely use every means to hunt him down.

Of course, for a master like Yun Zhonghe, it was not uncommon to disappear into the mountains for a month or two for secluded cultivation, so Lu Chuan didn’t have to worry about any issues arising in the short term.

What was urgent now was to improve his strength quickly, so he would be confident enough to seek revenge on Long Tianya.

After a night’s rest, Lu Chuan’s condition had improved considerably.

For the next two days, he stayed at Hanging Gourd Medical Hall, quietly healing his injuries, occasionally seeing patients to take a break.

He also noticed that Xiaoyue was exceptionally diligent, busying herself around the medical hall and taking a lot of work off Mu Nanqing’s hands.

Lu Chuan saw a smart and deft air about this girl and felt that with proper guidance, Xiaoyue had the potential to become someone significant, so he gave her some pointers.

Xiaoyue had a sharp mind and understood Lu Chuan’s words with great clarity.

She also showed a keen interest in pharmacology, asking Lu Chuan a lot about the subject of medicine making.

Lu Chuan generously shared many insights and specifically gave Xiaoyue a few prescriptions for her to study on her own.

A few days later, Lu Chuan’s injuries had fully healed, and he was certain that the death of Yun Zhonghe was still unknown to others.

There was no word from Long Tianya’s side either, which seemed to indicate he was still unaware of the demise of Cloud City’s top expert.

“I guess Long Tianya must see me as an ant that he can crush at will, so he’s not paying any attention to me.

That’s good; it gives me ample time to increase my strength,” Lu Chuan thought.

“By the time he realizes, I should have already grown to the point where even he will have to look up to me.”

“First, I need to get Ning Xin to help me get an invitation to the auction,” Lu Chuan immediately contacted Ning Xin and arranged to meet in a coffee shop.

Three o’clock in the afternoon.

Lu Chuan walked into the coffee shop and immediately spotted Ning Xin sitting at a window, leaning forward at the table with one hand supporting her chin, deep in thought, wearing a fitted blouse.

His gaze involuntarily lingered on her ample figure, and he couldn’t help but worry about the table’s durability.

“I wonder if this table can withstand the weight,” he thought.

Lu Chuan sat opposite Ning Xin.

Ning Xin snapped back to reality, her face blooming into a smile, “What’s got you in the mood to ask me out today?

Don’t tell me you’ve finally seen the light?”

Lu Chuan rolled his eyes and said, “Of course, I need your help with something.

Did you think I’d have a date with you for no reason?”

Ning Xin looked utterly annoyed, “What’s wrong with dating me?

Do you have any idea how many people ask me out daily?

They could circle the globe three times!”

Thinking that he was asking for a favor, Lu Chuan quickly said, “Yes, yes, it would be an honor to have a date with Miss Ning.”

Ning Xin’s attitude softened somewhat, “Alright, tell me, what is it you want?”

Lu Chuan explained his desire for an auction invitation, hoping that Ning Xin could recommend him to treat Jiang Hai’s daughter.

Ning Xin said, “So it’s just this little thing, huh?

I used to play with Jiang Hai’s daughter.

I’ll recommend you right away.”

After that, she took out her phone and sent several messages.

After a little while, Ning Xin said to Lu Chuan with a smug look, “There, I informed Jiang Hai and recommended a Divine Doctor to treat his daughter’s illness.

Jiang Hai said he will surely welcome us grandly.

How about that, isn’t my influence potent?”

Lu Chuan chuckled and said, “Of course, who has more influence than Miss Ning Xin?”

“Pssh.” Ning Xin looked up at him, her eyes clearly revealing the joy of being praised.

“I’ve helped you out, shouldn’t you help me with something too?” asked Ning Xin.

Lu Chuan asked, “What do you need help with?”

A mischievous smile appeared on Ning Xin’s face as she whispered, “I’ve been quite interested in human anatomy lately.

I’ve already studied women extensively, but I haven’t had a chance to understand men.

Come with me to the hotel, let me have a thorough investigation.”

Lu Chuan had just taken a sip of coffee and almost sprayed it out when he heard Ning Xin’s words.

He looked at her dubiously and said, “Actually, there’s nothing much to research.

With your vast experience of watching countless films, you must have seen all kinds already, so I think we should forget it.”

Ning Xin immediately retorted, “But I’ve never seen the real thing!”

Pretending not to hear her, Lu Chuan took out his phone, glanced at it, and said, “I suddenly remembered I have something else to do, so I can’t stay with you.

Thanks for the recommendation, and I’ll definitely treat you to a big meal later.”

Saying that, he immediately stood up and headed out of the coffee shop without looking back.

Ning Xin clenched her teeth angrily, muttering under her breath, “Bastard, I don’t believe I can’t take you down!

Sooner or later, I’ll have you on the bed to study thoroughly!”

At that moment, an elderly man approached Ning Xin.

Upon seeing him, Ning Xin’s expression froze for a moment before she asked, “Old Qin?

What brings you here?”

The old man’s face broke into a gentle smile and said, “Miss, I’ve come to take you back.”

Ning Xin crossed her arms and turned her head, “Go tell my father that I’m not done playing yet.

I’ll return when I’m ready.”

Old Qin sighed and said, “Miss, you’ve been playing outside for quite a while now.

It’s time to settle down.

You are the Ning family’s Young Miss, with a status high above the masses.

That young man just now, you should cut ties with him as soon as possible.”

Ning Xin’s face immediately showed her defiance, “I’ll play with whoever I want to play with, even my father can’t control me!”

Old Qin hesitated for a moment and then said, “Miss, actually, the Family Head sent me here this time to prepare you for marriage.”

Ning Xin was shocked and quickly asked, “My…

my fiancé wants to come over?”

Old Qin shook his head and said, “No, that’s not it.

The Family Head said you are of marriageable age now, and it’s time to prepare for marriage.

Although that fiancé hasn’t come to seek you out yet, once you are ready, the Family Head will take the initiative to find him.”

Ning Xin immediately wanted to object.

After all, her marriage had been arranged at birth, and she didn’t even know what her so-called fiancé looked like.

She had someone she liked in her heart now, naturally, she didn’t want to marry someone at random.

But the thought of her father’s severe face, which brooked no dissent, made her deflate.

She had always known it was her fate, and that rebelling was useless.

After a while, Ning Xin took a deep breath and said to Old Qin, “I can go back with you, but you have to give me some time.

I still have things to finish.

Once they’re done, I’ll go back with you.”

Old Qin asked, “What things?

I can help alleviate your worries.”

Ning Xin rolled her eyes, “This is something you can’t help with.

I have to hand over the most important thing to someone I care about, so leave it to me.”

“I understand.” Old Qin nodded his head and walked away.

Ning Xin took out her phone and dialed a number.

“Bring me the Wound Healing Ointment I had prepared earlier.

I have a big thing to do!”
