Wind Chen picked up the phone.
Laoba Zhang said in a low voice, “Mr. Chen, big news.”
“Go on,” Wind Chen spoke briefly.
Laoba Zhang continued seriously, “Besides the Yans and Loongs, there’s one more person who has been attacking the Ye family. It’s Fae Lee, that popular actress.”
“There’s her too?”
Wind Chen was surprised at first, but it made sense.
It wasn’t surprising that someone like Fae Lee would do something like this.
“Also, Phil Loong of the Loong family and Lance Yan of the Yan family both died earlier today, but news of it hasn’t been made public. But I don’t think their families can hide it for long.”
“Any other discoveries?” asked Wind Chen.
“An unknown old man entered the Loong house today, and the Loongs were very respectful towards this old man, but I still don’t know exactly who he is,” said Laoba Zhang.
“Got it. Carry on your investigation.”
Wind Chen hung up.
Sue Lee didn’t ask about the call and just looked at Wind Chen with great anticipation.
She hoped that Wind Chen could hurry up and treat her illness. Otherwise, she couldn’t sleep well at all.
“Alright, Mum, just sit comfortably.”
Wind Chen smiled.
“Sure, sure.”
Sue Lee took a seat as instructed.
Wind Chen stood in front of Sue Lee. He didn’t have acupuncture needles, but treating Sue Lee’s illness wasn’t difficult for him. He just needed to send some spirit energy into Sue Lee’s brain and slowly heal and get rid of the tumor.
Spirit energy was the most mysterious and powerful form of energy in the world. It could be terrifyingly destructive, but it also carried a tremendous amount of revitalizing power.
This revitalizing power wasn’t very useful to a cultivator, but when used properly on an ordinary person, it could do something as nature-defying as bringing someone back to life.
Helping Sue Lee to treat her tumor didn’t need any of his actual medical expertise.
Five minutes later, Wind Chen had completed his first round of treatment.
Sue Lee felt like her head was a lot lighter, and her eyesight had improved as well. These changes both shocked and excited Sue Lee at the same time.
“I didn’t know that you were this amazing, Wind. I really have to find a way to thank you.”
Sue Lee was brimming with excitement.
Wind Chen waved his arms about and smiled. “It’s just what I ought to be doing. It’s not possible to completely heal you with just one session, so I’ll give you treatment once a week, and you should be all healed up after three weeks.”
“Sure, sure!”
Sue Lee couldn’t stop nodding away. She was already pleased with today’s result.
“I’m off to bed then.”
Wind Chen went upstairs.
Sue Lee looked at Wind Chen’s back and suddenly realized that he was tall and exuded an extraordinary charm. He didn’t seem any worse than that Lance Yan or Phil Loong.
“Mum, what are you looking at?”
Queena Ye had just walked out from the kitchen.
“Queena, come over here. I need to talk to you.”
Sue Lee beckoned Queena Ye to come over.
Both mother and daughter sat down on the couch.
Sue Lee said softly, “Earlier on, Wind gave me treatment, and he’s simply too amazing. He’s definitely no worse than those supposedly genius doctors of the country. I feel really good now, and it doesn’t hurt anymore.”
“Really?”
“Really.” Sue Lee nodded.
“That’s good, that’s good. I was so frightened.”
Queena Ye hugged Sue Lee’s arm and gently rested her head on Sue Lee’s shoulder.
Sue Lee reached out to gently caress Queena Ye’s hair and sighed quietly, “In the past, I was really too nasty toward Wind, and I always mocked him and scolded him. When I think about it now, I feel really sorry about it.”
“Don’t worry, Mum, as long as we all get along well in the future, Wind won’t be so petty as to bear a grudge against what you did in the past,” assured Queena Ye.
“I hope so,” said Sue Lee.
After that, Sue Lee peered at the kitchen and saw that Mina Ye was still inside, so she brought her voice down to a whisper and asked, “Wind is sleeping in the same room as you, right?”
“Yes, but he sleeps on the floor,” Queena Ye quickly explained.
“On the floor? How could you let him sleep on the floor? The weather is getting so cold! What if he catches a cold?” Sue Lee glared at Queena Ye.
“Well, that…”
Queena Ye didn’t know how to respond. Of course, he sleeps on the floor. Did her mother expect him to be sleeping on the same bed as her daughter?
Sue Lee stared straight at Queena Ye and said sternly, “You’re a married couple. Don’t let Wind sleep on the floor from tonight onwards. He has to sleep on the bed.”
“Fine, fine. I’ll sleep on the floor and let him sleep on the bed. Happy?” Queena Ye was getting a little annoyed.
“That’s not what I meant.” Sue Lee spoke earnestly, “In the past, I didn’t know anything about what Wind could do. So even though you two have been married for two years now, I didn’t want him to sleep in the same bed as you. But things are different now. Now, I feel that Wind is actually really outstanding.”
“And…then?” Queena Ye still didn’t get it.
“Then I’m going to give you two one year. I want a grandchild,” declared Sue Lee rather domineeringly.
Queena Ye’s face blushed instantly. “No way.”
“No way? Queena Ye, don’t say that I didn’t warn you. If Wind ends up with some other woman instead, then it’ll be too late for you to cry when that happens.”
“That’s quite enough. I’m going to bed.”
Queena Ye clutched her scalding hot cheeks and ran back upstairs.
After walking into the bedroom, Queena Ye saw that Wind Chen looked like he was in a daze and in deep thought, so she walked over and nudged him. “Who are you thinking about?”
“My Senior Sister,” replied Wind Chen casually.
Frost instantly covered Queena Ye’s face.
“That’s not what I meant.” Wind Chen suddenly realized that he hadn’t phrased it properly and explained, “I suspect I have a Senior Sister.”
“What does that mean? You’d better think carefully before you speak.”
Queena Ye’s tiny universe looked like it might explode anytime.
Wind Chen said, “When I was 16, I followed my master to travel and cultivate. But in the midst of doing that, Master disappeared for two months, and during these two months, there was a pretty lady a little older than myself who would try to kill me from time to time every day, which really made my life a living hell. But each time she attempted to kill me, she never really took a fatal shot, as if she was just trying to train me…
“Two months later, Master Old Geezer appeared again, and the pretty lady disappeared. I told Master about it, and he wasn’t the least surprised. In fact, he had an adoring look on his face when I mentioned her. So I suspect that she’s either my Senior Sister or she’s Old Geezer’s daughter.”
“Then?”
“That’s it. That’s all there is.”
“Oh? If you miss your pretty Senior Sister so much, why don’t you look for her?” asked Queena Ye with an icy smile.
Wind Chen suddenly felt like the temperature in the room had dropped and said with a bitter smile, “I’m not going to tell you such things anymore. Otherwise, you’re going to get jealous again. You seriously get jealous so easily.”
“If you’ve got guts, recount something like this every night from now on.”
“Sure…”
“Don’t sleep on the floor tonight.” Queena Ye climbed into bed.
“What?” Wind Chen was stunned.
“Mum doesn’t want me to make you sleep on the floor,” said Queena Ye with a red face as she pulled the blanket over her head.
“I like the sound of that.”
Wind Chen hopped onto the bed swiftly and got under the nice smelling blankets.
“You…you’d better keep your distance, and don’t come any nearer. Otherwise, I’ll sleep on the floor instead.”
“Alright, got it. Sigh, I’m such a failure,” Wind Chen purposely spoke in a sad and dejected voice.
Pfft.
Queena Ye chuckled, then asked softly, “Have you ever heard of the story about the animal and the one who was worse than an animal?”
“Is there such a story?” Wind Chen was a little confused. He really hadn’t heard of such a story before.
“You really are an idiot. Sleep!”
