Seeing Elder Chen so serious, Chi Yinyin quickly nodded in agreement.
Getting into the car, Chi Yinyin couldn't suppress her curiosity. "Elder Chen, why are you so polite to him? Even Physician Wang has to..."
"How is he qualified to be compared to a senior!" Elder Chen said dismissively.
"But he's just a young man!"
Chi Yinyin couldn't understand it. Qin Hanchu was so young, what right did he have to earn Elder Chen's respect?
"You don't need to know so much. You just need to know that he is a divine being."
After saying that, Elder Chen said no more.
Chi Yinyin became even more curious about Qin Hanchu!
What kind of person could make such a prominent figure as Elder Chen speak in such a manner?
Soon, the two returned to the Morning Star Grand Hotel.
Upon seeing Chi Yinyin getting out of the car, Chi Yuhan and Chi Yinyin's parents rushed forward with surprise and joy.
"Yinyin, are you alright?"
"This is truly wonderful!"
"Dad, who did you find to help you?" Chi Yuhan asked in surprise.
Chi Yinyin's father also said, "Elder Chen, please take us to meet him. Our Chi family would like to thank him in person."
"This senior prefers quiet cultivation and dislikes meeting strangers, so you don't need to disturb him," Elder Chen said.
Chi Yinyin's mother: "But this debt of gratitude..."
Elder Chen: "Let's owe it for now!"
A moment later, Chi Yinyin's family returned to their room.
"Yinyin, tell your dad. Where did Elder Chen take you? Which physician saved you?"
Chi Yinyin's father was still not giving up.
Such a powerful physician, his Chi family naturally wanted to befriend him.
"Please don't ask. Elder Chen has already instructed that no information about that person should be leaked."
"If Elder Chen finds out I reveal the secret, he will be furious."
"Can our Chi family afford that?"
Chi Yinyin knew the consequences of going against Elder Chen's wishes, so she could only keep her mouth shut.
"No matter what, it's good that Yinyin has recovered," Chi Yinyin's mother said.
"I won't talk to you anymore. I need to seize the time to cultivate," Chi Yinyin said.
Chi Yinyin's mother hurriedly persuaded her, "You've just recovered, what's the rush?"
"The senior said that as long as I cultivate diligently in the near future, I can advance two realms within a week."
Hearing this, Chi Yinyin's parents were shocked. "How is that possible? Advancing two levels in a week?"
"We'll see in a week!" Chi Yinyin said.
...
That afternoon, the First Madam stood by the door, looking out expectantly.
Today, she had finally received a call from her "son," and learning that her son was coming home for dinner, she had been waiting at the door early.
A moment later, Mu Jianling's car arrived.
She had come at the invitation of the First Madam.
"First Madam," Mu Jianling greeted with a smile.
Seeing Mu Jianling, the First Madam smiled happily. "Jianling, you're here. How has your father been recently?"
"He has recovered very well and is now recuperating at home." Mu Jianling replied first, then asked, "Has Ye Jiangliu not returned yet?"
"He should be back soon!" As soon as she finished speaking, the First Madam saw Qin Hanchu walking towards them. "He's back now."
Mu Jianling quickly turned her head to look. Upon seeing Qin Hanchu, she couldn't help but feel her heart race.
This fluttery nervousness made her delicate face blush slightly.
"Don't be so nervous, it's not like you two are meeting for the first time."
With the help of the spiritual rice, the current First Madam had already reached the late stage of Grandmaster!
Mu Jianling stood beside her, and naturally, she could hear Mu Jianling's heartbeat.
At this moment, the First Madam was very happy. Mu Jianling's heartbeat indicated her feelings for "Ye Jiangliu."
As long as Ye Jiangliu was willing, the two could surely become a real couple.
Although Mu Jianling was already at the eighth-grade realm, she still found it difficult to suppress these emotional fluctuations.
The First Madam's teasing made her even more embarrassed.
Qin Hanchu's reason for returning was to cheer up the First Madam.
He would gradually leave, making the First Madam believe that her son had merely gone to a distant place and was not dead.
"Why are you waiting outside? I'm not some distinguished guest," Qin Hanchu said with a smile.
"After such a long time without any news, I was worried sick."
"Where did you go?"
The First Madam complained.
"I found a mountain and went into seclusion to cultivate."
"To catch up with peers, one naturally has to put in more effort."
"This period was not in vain. I have now reached the fourth-grade realm."
Qin Hanchu said with a smile.
"You've reached fourth grade? So quickly?"
Mu Jianling exclaimed in surprise!
It had taken her three years to reach the fourth grade. Qin Hanchu had only taken a few months?
The First Madam was also very shocked. It had taken her over two years to reach the fourth grade.
Qin Hanchu looked confused. "So quickly? I thought this was normal cultivation speed."
"How did you do it?"
The First Madam was both shocked and happy. If Qin Hanchu could maintain this speed, he would soon make up for the previous gap.
"Ye Jiangliu" could even overtake his peers from behind.
"I met an old man who gave me a few pills."
"After that, I kept exercising my physique in the deep mountains."
"Is it because of the help of these pills?"
Hearing Qin Hanchu's words, the First Madam exclaimed, "Pills? Who has such miraculous pills?"
"I don't know, it was just a chance encounter."
Mu Jianling envied him. "You are truly lucky."
"When misfortune ends, blessings begin. I was foolish for over twenty years, so all the accumulated good luck should start to show." Qin Hanchu smiled.
The First Madam nodded with a smile. "That makes sense."
Qin Hanchu looked at Mu Jianling. "How is your father?"
"He's almost fully recovered!" Mu Jianling replied.
"Come inside and sit, don't stand out here."
At the First Madam's invitation, the two followed her into the villa.
An hour later, the dining table was laden with delicious dishes.
Knowing that Qin Hanchu was returning, the First Madam had prepared the ingredients early.
While eating, the First Madam asked Qin Hanchu, "What are your plans next?"
"In a few days, I have to go back and continue my closed-door cultivation. I need to break through to the seventh grade."
Upon receiving Qin Hanchu's answer, the First Madam hurriedly said, "The further you go in martial arts, the harder it becomes. You can reach the fourth grade in a few months, but it's absolutely impossible to reach the seventh grade in a few months! I started learning martial arts at the age of five, and it wasn't until I was seventeen that I reached the seventh grade!"
Mu Jianling added, "Even with your exceptional talent, it should take at least five years to go from fourth grade to seventh grade!"
"Life is more than just martial arts. Don't you want to find a wife and start a family?"
"If you go to the mountains to cultivate until you reach the seventh grade, by the time you come out, Jianling's children will be old enough to run errands."
"With such a good girl right in front of you, don't miss out!"
The First Madam spoke her mind directly in front of them.
She knew Mu Jianling's feelings very well, so she only needed to convince Qin Hanchu.
