On the way back to the villa at Dragon Garden, Mother Wang started sneezing from the moment she got in the car. It was obvious that she had caught a cold.
Back in the living room, Lin Ruoxi said worriedly, "Mother Wang, take some medicine and sleep."
Mother Wang smiled and shook her hand with a pale face, "There's no need, Miss, go back to your room and rest. You have to work, you can't get sick like me. My body is tough, this small cold is nothing. After all the commotion at home, I have to check if I lost anything valuable. "
"Mother Wang, don't check first. Look, everything is fine. This family doesn't lack money, why do you care about that? Listen to Ruoxi, take your medicine and rest first," Yang Cheng comforted her.
Mother Wang thought about it and agreed. Seeing that nothing had changed, she felt dizzy and said, "Young master, there were only the two of us in the house before and we didn't prepare any medicine. I'll have to trouble young master to make some."
Yang Chen naturally didn't have any objections, "Then Wang Ma, you and Ruoxi go upstairs to take a shower and change your clothes, I'll go out and buy some medicine before coming back." With that said, he hurriedly ran out the door.
Wang Ma pursed her lips into a smile and said to Lin Ruoxi, "Miss, Young Master must be blaming himself. Anyone would be heartbroken to see him like that in the police station."
"Is that so … I didn't pay much attention," Lin Ruoxi said plainly, "I said I don't blame him. If he thinks that way, there's nothing I can do."
"That's because young miss isn't usually warm to young master. Young miss suddenly being so considerate to young master, young master must feel sorry for young miss," Mother Wang coughed and said with a smile.
Lin Ruoxi frowned, "I don't usually treat him well, so shouldn't he be happy that I'm considerate to him now?"
"This is where the son-in-law is different from other men. He doesn't take it to heart when Miss doesn't treat him well. That's why he became like this." Mother Wang sighed softly and slowly walked upstairs.
Lin Ruoxi stood in silence for a while before following him upstairs.
At the same time, Yang Cheng, who was driving away from the villa, was thinking about what medicine to buy for the two of them. Since he wouldn't fall sick at all, Yang Cheng had no idea what medicine would be effective. He arrived at a private pharmacy and was about to enter when someone called out to him from behind.
"Son-in-law, don't buy the medicine here," a slightly aged voice shouted.
Yang Cheng turned around. Standing in front of him was an old man dressed in a grey robe. Walking on the road with this kind of attire, although it couldn't be said to be too unusual, it still attracted a lot of attention.
"It's you …" Yang Cheng narrowed his eyes. This person was Gray Robe, who was always by Lin Zhiguo's side.
Since Gray Robe was already in Zhonghai, it meant that Lin Zhiguo was here as well.
The power of the God's Stone was indeed great. It actually made the leader of the Yellow Flame Iron Brigade rush over to Zhonghai.
Gray Robe's expression was very kind, as if he was looking at an ordinary junior, "Medicine is better. There's one nearby, I'll bring the son-in-law there."
Yang Cheng was silent for a while and nodded. Although he didn't like Lin Zhiguo, it didn't mean that he would reject this old man's kindness for no reason. Even though Yang Cheng was a layman in pharmacology, he knew that Chinese medicine was better for conditioning the body.
After following Gray Robe through a street, he turned at a crossroad and found an old Chinese medicine shop.
After entering the shop, Gray Robe reported a prescription in a familiar manner. After the old doctor packaged it, he passed it to Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng took out some money to pay the bill and said, "Thank you."
"You don't have to thank me, son-in-law. This is what I should do," Gray Robe sighed, "Miss was kidnapped by the Yamata Sect, we are also responsible. Master asked me to express my gratitude to you. "
"Doesn't he hate me for giving the God's Stone to the Yamata Sect?" Yang Cheng asked mockingly.
Gray Robe shook his head, "Master is indeed angry. The God's Stone is very important. It can affect the distribution of power in the world. If it isn't handled properly, be it the Yellow Flame Iron Brigade or the organizations from other countries, it will be a disaster. "
"The ninjas of the Yamata Sect are best at hiding and escaping. You guys might not be able to catch them," Yang Cheng said with a smile.
"This is the other reason why I'm here," Gray Robe said solemnly, "We hope that you can help us track down the God's Stone and help us kill the three people."
"I don't want to have anything to do with the God's Stone anymore, and I don't want others to think that I'm working with you." Yang Cheng rejected, "The God's Stone has nothing to do with me now. If you guys have the ability to get the God's Stone, it means that you guys are fated to get it. If the Yamata Sect makes use of it, it can only mean that their luck is better than yours. "
Gray Robe's eyes lit up, "Master, you mean that you won't care no matter who the God's Stone ends up with?"
"That's right, I'll withdraw from the fight," Yang Cheng nodded.
"Alright, it's a deal." Gray Robe let out a long sigh. "Actually, Old Master also has his concerns. He's worried that if the son-in-law interferes and takes back the God's Stone, our large-scale search would be for naught. Since you don't plan to get the God's Stone back, we can take a gamble. "
"There's no use for me to get the God's Stone, I'll only cause trouble for the people around me," Yang Cheng smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "You guys go ahead and fight, I'm leaving now, I still have to brew medicine."
Gray Robe nodded with a smile, "Brew the medicine according to the method written on the prescription, you'll only need one night to get rid of the cold. Send my regards to Miss Ruoxi."
Yang Cheng nodded knowingly and left the pharmacy.
After Yang Cheng left, Gray Robe took out his communication device, connected it, and reported, "Master, the young master has agreed not to participate in the fight for the God's Stone."
"That's not surprising, after all, the God's Stone doesn't mean much to him anymore, but I didn't think that he would really give up on the God's Stone for Ruoxi."
"Master … Then next …"
"Come back, since Yang Cheng won't interfere, we must seize this opportunity, we can't let Hannya and Tanuki return to Japan."
"Isn't there still Tengu?"
"Tengu has been poisoned to death by them, his corpse was destroyed by the Bone Dissolving Powder, we just got the results of the test."
"Although Tengu is very strong, his escape technique is their weakness, which is also our breakthrough. If it's just Hannya and Tanuki, it'll be much more difficult to catch them …"
"Hmm … No matter what, whether we can carry out the 'God Creation' plan depends on this day and night. If too much time passes, the Yamata Sect will definitely send people to help. If the Yamata Sect takes it away, it's very likely that they'll create another troublesome enemy, so we can't be careless! "
"Yes … Master."
Meanwhile, Yang Cheng, who was driving back to the villa, was in a good mood, wondering if he should bring back something else. After all, he always felt sorry for the two women at home.
After thinking for a while, Yang Cheng turned the car to another street and bought some small gifts.
As for the whereabouts of the God's Stone, the secret competition between the Yamata Sect and the Yellow Flame Iron Brigade didn't have much meaning to him anymore. His mind was already on decocting the Chinese medicine, which was new and fresh to him, and he had never done it before.
Coming to the villa's kitchen, Yang Cheng took out a crucible according to the steps on the prescription, and started decocting the medicine while studying the steps.
After a few minutes, the smell of Chinese medicine had already spread out of the kitchen and drifted to the second floor.
After taking a shower and changing their clothes, Lin Ruoxi and Mother Wang smelled the smell and walked out of the room to go downstairs.
When they saw Yang Cheng excitedly pouring the medicinal soup into a bowl, Mother Wang was slightly curious, while Lin Ruoxi was a little absent-minded.
"Son-in-law, why did you want to buy Chinese medicine? Did you think of this prescription yourself?" Mother Wang asked curiously.
Yang Cheng put the two bowls of medicine on the table, "I don't know how to write a prescription, it's an old doctor's prescription to expel the cold."
Yang Cheng didn't mention Gray Robe, because he knew very well that if he mentioned Gray Robe, Lin Ruoxi definitely wouldn't take the medicine.
"I haven't taken medicine for many years. I remember when Old Madam was still here, whenever someone in the family got sick, Old Madam would ask me to buy the medicine, and Old Madam would brew it herself." Mother Wang said with nostalgia, "I remember at that time, Miss didn't want to take the medicine, and I had to coax her to drink it."
Lin Ruoxi looked at the light brown medicine on the table and said, "Mother Wang, you drink it, I won't drink it."
Yang Cheng was stunned, "Why not? You have to get rid of the cold, or else your body will be wet."
"Yes, Miss, the young master worked hard to brew it, drink a little," Mother Wang also persuaded.
"I said I won't drink it, so I won't drink it. I'm afraid of the bitterness, can't I?!"
Lin Ruoxi suddenly became a little grumpy, turned around and ran upstairs.
Yang Cheng quickly ran into the kitchen and came out with a small plastic bag, shouting to Lin Ruoxi on the stairs, "Wife, drink the medicine obediently, and I'll give you glutinous rice balls!"
Lin Ruoxi's footsteps stopped in the middle of the stairs. Her shoulders trembled slightly, and she suddenly turned around. Her eyes were red as she shouted, "Baddie!" Then, she ran back into the room without looking back.
"Uh …"
Yang Cheng was dumbfounded, he didn't understand what was going on. Didn't this girl love glutinous rice balls the most? On the way back, she specially made a detour to buy it. Was the medicine really so bitter?
Mother Wang showed a bit of bitterness and sadness on her face. Seeing Yang Cheng full of puzzlement, she said, "Young master, Old Madam used to coax Miss with glutinous rice balls in the past, and let Miss drink the medicine. What you did made Miss remember Old Madam."
Yang Cheng was silent, he didn't expect that his unintentional action would make Lin Ruoxi feel sad and miss twice, no wonder she seemed to be about to cry.
"Then … Mother Wang, you drink the medicine, Ruoxi can't help it if she doesn't drink it." Yang Cheng smiled helplessly, "I was shot lying down, I guess Ruoxi will roll her eyes at me for a few days."
Mother Wang smiled and said, "I don't think so, maybe Miss will like you more."
"Because I reminded her of Grandma?" Yang Cheng asked.
"Rather than saying that she remembered Old Madam, it would be better to say that you let Miss feel that you care about her. Since you can do this, it means that you really care about Miss," Mother Wang said.
Yang Cheng said embarrassedly, "This sounds a bit mushy, didn't I just buy a few glutinous rice balls? If she eats shark's fin or bird's nest, I won't buy it."
But just when Yang Cheng was about to take Lin Ruoxi's bowl of medicine back to the kitchen and pour it out, the door of Lin Ruoxi's room on the second floor suddenly opened again.
Lin Ruoxi, whose eyes were still red, looked down from upstairs, her bright red lips slightly pouting, as if she had just been crying, compared to her usual cold appearance, she looked a bit cuter.
"Yang Cheng, what are you doing? Are you going to pour it out? I haven't drunk it yet, do you want me to be sick and unable to get up!? "
