Chapter 164: Tonight, Can Sister-in-law Sleep with You?
Seeing their shocked expressions, Li Qianfan pondered for a moment and decided not to keep hiding it, but he didn't want to reveal that he was a cultivator, so he casually came up with an excuse, "Back when I was in college, an old man gave me a medicinal formula. I followed the formula to concoct some pills, and then a boss took interest and decided to work with me.
All this money is from that big boss."
"Pills?"
Li Dalong's expression became very serious as he asked, "What exactly do those pills you made do?"
"They primarily nourish men's bodies."
In front of his sister-in-law, Li Qianfan didn't reveal the true effects of the Yang Strengthening Pill; otherwise, it would have been very awkward. Of course, he wasn't entirely lying, as the Yang Strengthening Pill indeed had the effect of nourishing the body.
"You're working with Lin Yiren?" Li Dalong suddenly thought of something and immediately asked.
"Yeah, how did you know?"
Li Qianfan asked, somewhat surprised.
Li Dalong chuckled and said, "It's easy to guess because, in Taoyuan County, only Lin Yiren is most successful in making male supplements, and only she has the financial strength to give you so much money. Most importantly, the last time you gave your sister-in-law one hundred thousand, you mentioned it was from Lin Yiren.
If I'm not wrong, your partnership with Lin Yiren was settled when you visited her home to provide your services, right?"
Seeing Li Dalong's well-reasoned analysis, Li Qianfan couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Brother, your analysis is spot on, really smart."
"Your brother can't handle praise; once you start, he's over the moon."
Seeing Li Dalong act so smug, Meng Lin couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.
"Hahaha." At this moment, Li Dalong was extremely happy. Not only had his wife found a job with an annual income of a million, but his younger brother from the countryside had also solved his debt problem. In his excitement, he put his arm around Li Qianfan's shoulder and said, "Qianfan, I'll accept this million for now.
As soon as your sister-in-law and I make some money, we will repay you immediately. You can trust my integrity!"
"Brother, if I can't trust others, could I not trust you?"
Li Qianfan said seriously, "When I was blind, you came to give me fifty thousand yuan on your own accord. I swore in my heart then that I'd repay you and your wife tenfold, a hundredfold. Even if you don't pay me back, I won't say a word."
"How could I not pay it back? Between real brothers, accounts must be clear. Any borrowed money must be returned!"
Li Dalong's eyes narrowed into slits as he laughed, "Besides, because of you, your sister-in-law landed a job with an annual salary of a million. Even if I didn't work, we could pay it off in a year."
"Li Dalong, I, Meng Lin, don't keep a gigolo. Even if I can make money, you still have to work. The dreams you sold me, earning a million a year, that just can't be realized." Meng Lin rebuked him with sharp eyes.
"Wife, I was just saying that. I've never shirked; I will definitely work hard," Li Dalong said with an embarrassed smile.
"By the way, Li Dalong, you brought Xiao Fan to the city to treat his eyes. You've been away on business trips all this time, and you've put it aside. Now that you have time, should you start treating Xiao Fan's eyes?" Meng Lin suddenly remembered this and spoke seriously to Li Dalong.
"Right, right, right."
Upon hearing this, Li Dalong immediately nodded, saying, "Oh my, I've been nearly driven mad by debts lately. If it weren't for your reminder, wife, I would have almost forgotten such an important matter. I'm really sorry."
"Don't apologize to me; apologize to Xiao Fan."
With that, Meng Lin, twisting her sexy waist, headed back to the kitchen to continue cooking. Now that her husband's debts were resolved, her spirits had lifted noticeably. At this moment, she truly understood what it meant to be light of heart when debt-free.
A joyful event really refreshes the soul; for Meng Lin at this moment, cooking, a task otherwise tiring, felt not tiring at all. She even started humming a song.
Similarly, Li Dalong was in a good mood, his arm around Li Qianfan as he said, "Xiao Fan, when you find some time, I'll take you to see a doctor. My classmate is an excellent physician. He can definitely cure your eyes."
"Okay, I'll go when I have the time."
Li Qianfan had long stopped wanting to pretend to be blind, and this opportunity could be used to restore his sight. Regardless of whether Li Dalong's classmate was a good physician, as long as he prescribed some medicine, he could openly restore his sight.
"Then tonight, we brothers must drink heartily, not returning until we're thoroughly drunk!"
Li Dalong's plan was simple; having surfaced, they must get completely drunk tonight.
"Alright, I'll join you!" Li Qianfan nodded emphatically.
...
Originally, Li Qianfan didn't want to 'cheat' and thought about having a hearty drink with Li Dalong, but when one is happy, even the liquor tastes sweet.
Tonight, Li Dalong's capacity for alcohol could only be described as terrifying. Previously, after drinking around six or seven taels, he would start spouting nonsense, but tonight he had downed a full jin and still acted as if nothing was amiss, whereas Li Qianfan was already feeling tipsy. The strong liquor harshly stimulated his stomach, occasionally giving him a sense of nausea.
However, Li Qianfan still did not use his True Qi to dispel the alcohol; he wanted to be thoroughly drunk just this once.
Since the atmosphere was good, Meng Lin also joined them for a few drinks, but being a woman who could not hold her liquor, after two small cups, her face was flushed. She gazed at Li Qianfan with a silly smile, occasionally sending over an extremely suggestive glance, her smile as tender as a girlfriend's.
When Li Dalong had drunk about one jin and three taels, he finally couldn't hold on any longer and began to slur his words.
"Li Dalong, go to bed on your own before you get too drunk; I can't carry you."
Sensing trouble, Meng Lin immediately chided him.
"Then... then I'll stop drinking, Xiao Fan, let's call it a night, I can't keep up anymore."
No sooner had he spoken than Li Dalong got up, staggered into the bedroom, and within seconds, a thunderous snoring sounded.
"Sister-in-law, I'm going to head back and sleep too, I'm really drunk!"
Li Qianfan's brain was fuzzy, and all he could think about was rushing to sleep.
After returning to his room, Li Qianfan didn't rush to sleep but placed the bag filled with three hundred Yang Strengthening Pills under the desk. He planned to give these pills to Lin Yiren tomorrow and then take another order to make a few million.
In this era of depleted Spiritual Energy, becoming a cultivator was very costly; he needed to make money quickly. Your next journey awaits at empire
With this in mind, Li Qianfan suddenly remembered something. He immediately took out the fragmented Heavenly Spirit Vase from his pocket. When he found that the Spiritual Energy in the fragments was fully saturated, this delighted him, and he quickly absorbed the Spiritual Energy into his Dantian.
"Whew, such pure Spiritual Energy."
Li Qianfan exhaled deeply, resolutely determined to quickly collect all the fragments of the Heavenly Spirit Vase. Doing so would greatly accelerate his advancement to the Golden Core Realm.
After absorbing the Spiritual Energy, Li Qianfan placed the fragments under his pillow; such a valuable treasure must be carefully stored.
"Bang bang bang!"
Just as Li Qianfan was preparing to sleep, the door was knocked, and Meng Lin's voice rang out: "Qianfan, can sister-in-law sleep with you tonight?"
