Chapter 552: Chapter 552 Su Qingcheng’s Gift_1

"With the Wannian Xuanbing here, your condition won’t worsen any further. Stay here, and wait for my return!"

Although Xu Yourong had woken up, her body had been ravaged by the Flower Servant Elixir and the Love Flower Poison, leaving her internal organs already in a state of exhaustion.

If it weren’t for the Wannian Xuanbing suppressing her injuries, they would have been enough to take her life.

To fully recover, Xu Yourong still needed the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Only with the Foundation Establishment Pill to help Xu Yourong rebuild her physical foundation and embark on the path of cultivation could she recover completely.

"Alright, I’ll wait for you!"

Xu Yourong nodded in response.

She gazed deeply at Ning Fan, her earnest eyes seeming to engrave the image of the man before her permanently into her heart.

Even someone with Ning Fan’s temperament found it difficult to endure that gaze filled with tenderness and love.

The Love Flower Poison could no longer be suppressed in an instant.

Both gasped simultaneously, the pain hammering at their hearts, suddenly sweeping over them both.

Unable to bear seeing Xu Yourong suffer this pain, Ning Fan reluctantly left the cabin boat, regardless of his own unwillingness.

After he left, Xu Yourong simply sat on the boat with a blissful smile on her face.

"Ning Fan... it’s so good to have you..."

...

Night fell.

Xu Yourong and Su Qingcheng stayed together in the wooden cabin boat.

The two women were already extremely close friends, and now that Xu Yourong had awoken, they naturally had endless topics to discuss.

"Qing Cheng, I really feel so happy now," Xu Yourong suddenly said.

Su Qingcheng’s smile froze for a second, "Is it because of Ning Fan? I don’t get it, what’s so good about him that you’re utterly captivated!"

"Everything about him is great!"

Upon mentioning Ning Fan, a glint seemed to flicker in Xu Yourong’s eyes.

With a pout, Su Qingcheng deliberately said, "I think there’s nothing good about him, probably he can only fool someone like you."

"Then I’m more than willing to be fooled by him!"

Xu Yourong immediately retorted.

Looking at Xu Yourong’s face brimming with happiness, Su Qingcheng’s heart gave a sudden wrench, and her breathing quickened a bit.

Although she belittled Ning Fan with her words, she didn’t know when exactly Ning Fan had already made his way into her heart!

But because of Xu Yourong, Su Qingcheng could only force herself to give up on Ning Fan, a pain only she knew too well.

"Yourong, when you’ve recovered, I’ll give you a grand gift," Su Qingcheng said after a moment of silence.

Xu Yourong was startled and asked curiously, "What grand gift? It’s not some precious jewelry, is it?"

As best friends with no secrets between them, she knew Su Qingcheng very well.

If it were just an ordinary gift, Su Qingcheng definitely wouldn’t describe it as a grand gift.

"If I tell you now, where’s the surprise?"

"Don’t ask anymore, I’m not going to tell you. Just stay here peacefully, and wait for Ning Fan to return and treat you."

"Once you’ve recovered, won’t you find out what my grand gift is?"

Su Qingcheng’s face bore a smile, but the smile seemed a bit forced.

The grand gift she was talking about was the marriage promise between Xu Yourong and Ning Fan!

Xu Yourong was still unaware that her dear friend had hidden away her marriage contract with Ning Fan.

Now that Xu Yourong and Ning Fan had reached such a stage in their relationship, Su Qingcheng naturally had no reason to keep their wedding promise a secret any longer.

She planned to hand over the marriage contract to Xu Yourong after she recovered, using it to bless her union with Ning Fan.

As for herself, she would leave alone, never to appear before them again.

She was afraid that if she continued to interact with Ning Fan, she would be unable to resist the urge to compete with Xu Yourong for his affection.

"Okay then, I won’t ask anymore. I’ll wait for your surprise!"

Xu Yourong didn’t press any further, laughing as she spoke.

...

Meanwhile, in a cabin on the shore, Ning Fan was sitting cross-legged on the bed, his face showing clear signs of agony.

The bulging veins on his forehead were testament to the excruciating pain he was enduring.

The Love Flower Poison was in full effect, and the agonizing pain was spreading throughout his body—Ning Fan could only grit his teeth and bear it.

Unbeknownst to him, Hua Nishang was silently observing him through the window of the cabin.

"She’s really lucky to have you go to such lengths for her..."

Hua Nishang murmured softly, glancing at the wooden cabin boat, a hint of envy and a deeply concealed jealousy in her eyes.

She knew well the love she harbored for Ning Fan, but after seeing the depth of Ning Fan’s affection for Xu Yourong, she could only silently bury her own love deep in her heart.

"Heh, in your heart, I’m not as good as she is, not even as good as Su Qingcheng... laughable..."

Hua Nishang revealed a self-mocking smile, her countenance filled with loss.

...

The next day.

Ning Fan and Xu Yourong sat facing each other, transferring life force to Xu Yourong continuously through the Filial Aura.

He was once again transferring nearly all his life force to Xu Yourong, which would be enough to sustain her for a month!

As more and more life force drained away, Ning Fan’s face gradually aged, and even wrinkles began to appear on his skin.

Simultaneously, his black hair was also gradually turning white.

Seeing this, Xu Yourong was moved to tears, trying several times to stop Ning Fan, but he interrupted her each time.

"It’s alright, my life force is strong. The life force I’m giving you will recover in a few days."
