Chapter 169: 169, Regret Chapter 169: 169, Regret Seeing the Doctor staring motionlessly at her husband’s wound, Liu Caixia felt even more nervous, “Doctor!”

The Doctor snapped back to reality and looked at Liu Caixia, “Your husband’s condition is very good, his leg no longer needs to be amputated.” He noticed that the pus that had been present on Zhang Heizi’s wound had diluted, and the wound on his leg was healing rapidly, indicating that Zhang Heizi’s condition was rapidly improving.

Zhang Heizi was truly fortunate to have consumed that immortal medicine, it was a pity that he had finished it all; otherwise, he could have identified what it was. Being able to rapidly heal a wound that would have required amputation, he could only describe it as immortal medicine.

Perhaps the girl Liu Caixia had encountered on the train really was a celestial being—otherwise, how could she casually produce a bottle of medicine with such astonishing effects.

“Really?!” Zhang Heizi and Liu Caixia looked at the Doctor, their faces filled with excited expressions. This was the best news they had heard.

The Doctor nodded, looking at Liu Caixia, “You should really thank that little girl this time; if it hadn’t been for that bottle of medicine she gave you, your husband would have needed an amputation.”

Liu Caixia and Zhang Heizi exchanged glances, their hearts filled with shock and regret. The effects of that bottle of medicine had been so remarkable, yet sadly, she couldn’t find that little girl anymore, not even to give her thanks. She should have brought that little girl to the hospital earlier; regret was now too late.

Guo Zhenjiang was holding Zhang Heizi’s medical report, reading it repeatedly, still somewhat unable to believe it was true. Pulling out his phone, he decided to call his teacher to inform him of the incident.

Soon, an aged voice came from the other end, “Zhenjiang, is there something you need?”

“Teacher, something incredible has happened here,” Guo Zhenjiang detailed the events.

“Really? Bring me the report and the medicine bottle quickly,” the other side responded excitedly, eager to see the medicine bottle Guo Zhenjiang spoke of.

Song Yan Ning, who was unaware of everything happening in the hospital, had met Liu Caixia by chance; because Liu Caixia had a kind heart, she had decided to help her. She had already given the medicine to the other party; whether it was used or discarded, it no longer concerned her.

“Boss, you’re finally back, we couldn’t reach your phone, and we were so worried,” Ling Yu and Guo Kai greeted Song Yan Ning happily. Seeing her safe and sound relieved them.

Song Yan Ning smiled slightly, “Sorry! I made you worry. But rest assured, a scourge like me will definitely live for thousands of years.” Considering her age back in the Demon World, she was already several hundred years old.

“Boss, you think you’re a tortoise, with your thousands of years?” Ling Yu and Guo Kai burst into laughter.

Song Yan Ning just smiled. If she continued her cultivation, perhaps even a tortoise wouldn’t live as long as her.

Qian Dexin sniffed the porcelain bottle over and over but still couldn’t discern what kind of medicine had originally been inside. Shaking his head, he handed the porcelain bottle back to Guo Zhenjiang, “This seems to be a traditional Chinese medicine, but I can’t identify which.”

Guo Zhenjiang took the porcelain bottle back a bit disappointed, “If only we could find that little girl, I wonder if she lives in Yang City.”

Qian Dexin nodded, his heart also filled with regret. He had been immersed in medical skills all his life but had never seen anything like this before. If only he could meet the girl who gave Liu Caixia the medicine.

When Guo Kai returned home, he saw his father sitting on the couch staring at a porcelain bottle, eyebrows raised, he approached and sat down next to him, “Dad, what are you looking at so intently?”

Guo Zhenjiang returned to his senses, turning to look at Guo Kai, “Went to play basketball again?” He never liked to talk about work at home.

Guo Kai nodded, “The boss came back, and we played a game of basketball. Boss’s skills are really something; the opponents didn’t stand a chance, they conceded before the game even finished.” He still felt excited thinking about it.

Guo Zhenjiang smiled, “Go take a shower and come down for dinner.” He had heard his son mention Song Yan Ning and knew she was his team leader in the system, but he wasn’t interested in these details. As long as his son gained experience in the system, that was all that mattered. Whether his son would choose to be a doctor like him depended on his own choices; he wouldn’t force him to do anything he didn’t want to.

“Alright,” Guo Kai replied, seeing his father’s lack of interest and not speaking further, he headed upstairs.

Guo Zhenjiang shook his head with a smile, looking again at the porcelain bottle in his hand. Whoever owned this porcelain bottle—where was she now? He really wanted to meet her.

After returning to Yang City, Song Yan Ning’s life became simpler—entering Emperor Realm at night and going to school during the day, though she occasionally took some time off from school.

Because the principal had instructed, and also because Song Yan Ning’s academic performance indeed ranked among the best, Tong Qi and the teachers, although not agreeing, still approved Song Yan Ning’s leave.

Time passed imperceptibly, and before she knew it, Song Yan Ning was about to graduate from primary school.

The bustling and lively commercial street had people coming and going.

Inside a Western-style restaurant at the corner of the street, Song Yan Ning, Ling Yu, and Guo Kai were sitting by the window.

The brilliant sunlight streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting strands that enshrouded Song Yan Ning’s figure, making her appear adorned in a layer of breathtaking splendor, stunningly beautiful.

“Boss, can you not look at me like that, I’m afraid I might not be able to control my heart,” Ling Yu coughed lightly, his face turning red as he turned his head away. The current boss was nothing like when she was younger; her appearance was truly the fantasy of countless young hearts. If not for knowing about the monstrous Yushen behind her, he definitely would have lost control over his feelings for the boss. But now he dared not, Yushen’s martial abilities were not something he could endure, and with the boss being so powerful, he didn’t dare to harbor feelings.

“Oh?” Song Yan Ning lazily raised an eyebrow, her lips curving into a mischievous and charming smile.

“Boss! Please spare me, I misspoke, you are the boss I admire the most, how could I dare to blaspheme you?” Ling Yu nervously deflected with a dry laugh. The boss’s charm was simply too great; every grimace and every smile was more than his heart could handle. Now she was only twelve and already so beautiful; he pitied Qin Yushen a bit, guessing that most of his days in the future would be spent drowning in jealousy.

Guo Kai looked at Ling Yu with schadenfreude, “The boss is not someone you can tease, if Mr. Qin finds out, you can imagine the consequences.”
