Chapter 148: Giving You Two!

Early the next day.

Ye Chen was just about to go out to buy groceries when he received a call.

The person calling was none other than the Qin family's little chili pepper, Qin Aoxue.

Qin Aoxue got through and asked delicately, "Master Ye, may I ask if you are at home right now?"

Ye Chen gave a hum and said, "I am at home. Why, do you have something to find me for?"

Qin Aoxue said, "My dad asked me to send you some medicinal materials. He said it was ordered by Miss Song Wanting. I wonder if it's convenient for you right now? If it is, I'll send them over."

His wife Xiao Churan had gone to busy herself with studio matters, and his father-in-law was driving his mother-in-law to the Tang Chen Yi Pin villa to check on the renovation progress, so Ye Chen was home alone, and it wasn't inconvenient at all.

So he said, "It's convenient. Just come over directly."

Qin Aoxue hurriedly said, "Okay Master Ye, I'll be there right away!"

A few minutes later, Ye Chen heard a knock on the door.

He opened the door and saw Qin Aoxue, who had long black hair draped over her shoulders, was wearing a beige dress, and looked beautiful and incredibly ladylike, standing at the door. She was dragging a huge suitcase and looked shy.

"Master... Master Ye, hello... I am Qin Aoxue. I wonder if you still remember me..."

Qin Aoxue was extremely nervous at this moment.

Ever since her father told her yesterday about Master Ye's importance to the family's future, she had tossed and turned all night and hadn't slept well.

In her mind, naturally, she was thinking entirely of Ye Chen.

She was also at the age of a young girl's budding romance.

Which girl wouldn't want to find a handsome, wealthy, and capable man to be her husband?

And looking around, in the whole world, there wasn't a single man who could compete with Ye Chen!

This was the true candidate for a peerless husband!

Not to mention that her father hoped she could have progress with him, even if he hadn't said it, she couldn't help but be fascinated by him.

Ye Chen didn't know why Qin Aoxue was so nervous. The last time he saw her, she was still very headstrong and insisted on competing with him.

How could she seem like a different person when they met again today?

Had the hot little chili pepper suddenly turned into a fresh and delicious little cucumber?

So he asked curiously, "What's wrong with you today? You seem to have changed a lot from before?"

Qin Aoxue said shyly, "Master Ye, before, Aoxue was ignorant and was reckless and frivolous in front of you. I hope you will forgive me..."

Ye Chen smiled and said, "It seems the change is indeed quite big."

After saying this, he stepped aside and said, "Don't talk at the door, come in."

Qin Aoxue hurriedly nodded and carefully pulled the suitcase in.

Ye Chen saw that she was having a hard time pulling this huge suitcase. One had to know that Qin Aoxue was also a martial artist and had quite a bit of strength; ordinary strong laborers might not even be her match. Since she was struggling so much, it seemed this suitcase must be very heavy.

So he asked curiously, "What did you pack in this suitcase? Why is it so heavy?"

Qin Aoxue hurriedly said, "Master Ye, these are all the medicinal materials my dad prepared for you, and they are all top-grade medicinal materials, one in ten thousand!"

After saying this, she laid the suitcase down on the living room floor and opened it.

What met his eyes were indeed all top-grade medicinal materials!

They were even top-grade medicinal materials that Ye Chen himself had no way of buying!

Ye Chen was a bit shocked and couldn't help but ask, "How could your father get so many such good medicinal materials?"

Qin Aoxue hurriedly said, "Master Ye might not know, but my Qin family operates many businesses, one of which is medicinal materials. Our ancestors have been medicinal material merchants since the Qing Dynasty. We have our own mule and horse teams collecting the top medicinal materials from all over the country, then transporting them to the capital to sell to nobles and to Jiangnan to sell to wealthy merchants. For so many years, we have never lost this business."

As she spoke, Qin Aoxue hurriedly added, "By the way, my dad asked me to tell Master Ye that if Master Ye has any needs for medicinal materials in the future, just tell us directly. The Qin family will definitely do their best to satisfy Master Ye's needs!"

Ye Chen was also surprised.

Ever since he accidentally obtained the "Nine Mysteries Heavenly Sutra," he had been attracted by the mysteries within. It contained a great deal of alchemy skills and prescriptions, but he hadn't even heard of many of the medicinal materials.

He had been worrying about this matter, but he didn't expect that the Qin family was actually a medicinal material merchant with a hundred-year heritage!

This was truly a case of "searching high and low, only to find it effortlessly"!

So he said with undisguised joy, "Good! Very good! With the help of your Qin family in the future, my alchemy work will be much easier!"

Hearing Ye Chen talk about alchemy, Qin Aoxue hesitated for a long time, gathered her courage, and knelt on the ground with a thud.

Ye Chen was startled by her sudden action and asked in surprise, "Qin Aoxue, what are you doing?"

Qin Aoxue knelt on both knees, cupped her hands, and pleaded with a pious face, "Master Ye! My dad heard that you are going to refine divine medicine, and he is filled with longing, so he told me repeatedly to ask Master Ye if, after you refine the divine medicine, you could also... also... also..."

Qin Aoxue stammered for a long time but couldn't say the rest.

She had been pampered since she was a child, always admired and envied by others. When had she ever begged others in a lowly manner? Not to mention shamelessly asking others for things.

Therefore, this thin-skinned little girl was now embarrassed to say her true request.

Seeing her stammering, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel anxious for her.

However, even if Qin Aoxue didn't say it, he understood her request in his heart.

So he said indifferently, "Does your father also want a divine medicine?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Aoxue nodded like a chicken pecking at rice!

Then, she hurriedly said, "If it's too difficult for Master Ye, we will definitely not force it!"

Ye Chen smiled.

The medicine he was refining for Shi Tianqi and the others, what kind of divine medicine was it? It was nothing more than one of the lowest-level medicines in the "Nine Mysteries Heavenly Sutra."

This kind of thing was easy and effortless to refine. As long as there were raw materials, he could produce a pile in minutes, faster than kneading dough to steam buns. What the Qin family wanted was just a pill, so naturally, he wouldn't refuse.

Most importantly, he would have to rely on the Qin family to prepare medicinal materials for him in the future.

If he could recruit the Qin family for his own use this time and make them his disciples, then things would be much easier in terms of medicinal materials in the future.

So, looking at Qin Aoxue, who was shy, red-eyed, and full of pleading, he smiled slightly, reached out to help her up, and laughed, "It's not that I can't give your father my medicine."

"Really?" Upon hearing this, Qin Aoxue was instantly unable to contain her excitement.

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Of course it's true. Even if I don't look at your father's face, I can't refuse for the sake of a little beauty like you."

Actually, Ye Chen was just teasing her.

But he didn't expect that after hearing this, Qin Aoxue's heart would bump around!

At this time, in order to win people's hearts, Ye Chen smiled indifferently, "Forget it. Since I have a connection with your Qin family, this time, after I refine the divine medicine, I will give your Qin family two!" ===== CHAPTER 149 =====
