Second update!
"What? It’s cured?" Qiu Yuanshan, wrapped in a warm sensation, asked.
"Yes, it wasn’t a big issue. If the bullet had lodged in your waist, it might have been a bit troubling, but it was a .38 caliber’s penetrating bullet. Besides, since it hit your waist from the side, it naturally passed right through. It was your failure to treat it promptly that caused cold to accumulate. Now that I’ve cleared it up, there’s nothing to worry about!"
At these words, Qiu Yuanshan carefully tuned into his sensations and was overjoyed to discover that the stiff, cold feeling in his waist was gone, replaced by softness and warmth.
Not only that, Qiu Yuanshan felt an urge to revive his vigor, a sensation that had been absent for a long time.
"Old Qiu, what’s going on with you?" Fang Min came out of Qiu Muran’s room and saw Qiu Yuanshan’s excited expression, so she couldn’t help but ask.
"Min’er, do you know? Little Ye has cured my chronic condition!" Eager to share his joy, Qiu Yuanshan told Fang Min excitedly upon seeing her.
"Chronic condition?" Fang Min was first taken aback, but then quickly realized what he meant, glanced at a certain part of Qiu Yuanshan’s body, her pretty face blushing deeply as she asked, somewhat incredulously, "Really?"
"Really, would I lie to you?" Qiu Yuanshan said excitedly.
"That’s wonderful!" With Qiu Yuanshan’s waist injury healed, the biggest beneficiary was naturally Fang Min. If the setting had been different, she would have been tempted to see if it was true for herself.
However, she almost believed him completely, because she knew Qiu Yuanshan’s character—he was especially forthright. If he said it was healed, it surely was healed.
"Little Ye knows medical skills too?" Immediately, Fang Min held Ye Chenfeng in higher regard and found him much more agreeable.
"Yes, yes!" Ye Chenfeng nodded.
"Little Ye, regarding your matter with Murong, I no longer object. Young people have their own ideas, and we’ve placed too many restrictions on Murong!" Qiu Yuanshan said.
Fang Min was stunned, then couldn’t help but say, "Old Qiu, when did you become so open-minded?"
"I’ve always been very open-minded, okay?" Qiu Yuanshan replied.
"Mom, Dad, what are you talking about? You seem very happy?" Qiu Muran, wearing an oversized robe, came over slowly, rubbing her sleepy eyes.
"Ah? Ye Chenfeng!" By this time, Qiu Muran, having been taken care of by her mother, had sobered up quite a bit and was shocked to see Ye Chenfeng in her home.
"Why are you in my house?" Qiu Muran asked, somewhat anxiously and uneasily.
Ye Chenfeng rolled his eyes, "It’s because you got drunk. I was the one who carried you back!"
"Right, you girl went out to drink again. You’ve got to be careful from now on. If it weren’t for Little Ye, who knows what kind of bad people you might have encountered!" Qiu Yuanshan chided Qiu Muran.
Hearing that, Qiu Muran’s gaze flickered, her face showing a hint of embarrassment, as she looked around at her parents and Ye Chenfeng.
She noticed something odd—weren’t her parents and Ye Chenfeng on bad terms with each other? How could it be that tonight they seemed to get along so well? Moreover, her dad was calling him "Little Ye" with a tone like that of addressing his son-in-law.
"Uncle, Auntie, since Muran is fine, I’ll be leaving now," Ye Chenfeng prepared to make his exit, as the lady of the house was waiting for him.
"Little Ye, why the rush to leave? Your aunt and I will be leaving shortly. You young people continue with what you were doing!" Qiu Yuanshan called after Ye Chenfeng.
Ye Chenfeng and Qiu Muran: "...".
What do you mean by ’continue with what we were doing’? Both of them were utterly confused.
Especially Qiu Muran, she was gobsmacked—could it be that her parents thought Ye Chenfeng had gotten her drunk to do that sort of thing?
"Mom and Dad..."
Just as Qiu Muran was about to explain, Qiu Yuanshan hurriedly left with Fang Min, "You kids enjoy yourselves, we have our own matters to attend to. Do drop by for a visit next time, Ye Chenfeng!"
"Hey, Mom and Dad, listen to me explain!" Qiu Muran felt like crying but had no tears.
"You better not explain now, your parents are busy with their own things, they don’t have time to listen to your explanations!" Ye Chenfeng’s mouth curved into a mischievous smile.
Qiu Muran was confused, "What matters? How come I don’t know about them?"
"They are busy trying to give you a little brother or sister!" Ye Chenfeng said with a wicked grin.
"You... you rogue!" Qiu Muran’s face instantly turned red.

Meanwhile, at Sky Pavilion.
In a luxurious room, Ouyang Qingcheng sat elegantly on a leather sofa, with Bai Jie standing by her side, both of them fixing their cold gaze on three individuals dressed as Japanese samurai.
"Miss Ouyang, your efficiency is too low, the Sect Hierarch has already blamed us. We also lost three Blood Spirit Death Warriors, something the Sect Hierarch cannot tolerate! Hmph!" The dark-faced man in the center spoke coldly, his tone full of reproach.
Ouyang Qingcheng delicately pinched the stem of a wine glass, allowing the crimson liquid to sway as she lightly parted her red lips, "And then?"
"And then? The Sect Hierarch has promised me that as soon as we gather the nine keys, he will reward me with the Holy Maiden, that is, Miss Ouyang, and of course, Miss Bai Jie by your side. I’ve already been coveting the two of you for a long time!" Kurokawa said with a lecherous and licentious smile curling on his lips.
"How dare you!"
Bai Jie, beside Ouyang Qingcheng, could not accept this, and with a cold shout, a formidable killing intent had already locked onto Kurokawa.
"Huh?"
Kurokawa’s tall accomplices, Hirata Kazuki and the shorter Tengu Ichiro, shot out four electric glares, both setting their sights on Bai Jie.
Ouyang Qingcheng indolently pursed her lips, and Bai Jie, understanding her gesture, reined in her formidable aura.
"Mr. Kurokawa, it’s not that I was incompetent, but our opponent was too strong. I asked the Sect Hierarch to send some experts, but I didn’t expect it to be you guys... sigh..."
Ouyang Qingcheng left her sentence half unsaid, her implication quite clear: she didn’t hold Kurokawa and his men in high regard. In other words, their presence was akin to cannon fodder, utterly useless against their enemies.
"What do you mean, Ouyang Qingcheng? Make yourself clear, we are just reinforcements invited by the Bloodwater Holy Spirit Cult, we are not your Cult members!" Tengu Ichiro and Hirata Kazuki were displeased.
"Hmph!" Kurokawa almost exploded in rage, his chest heaving as he forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "Who exactly is this enemy? Even the mighty Holy Maiden of the Bloodwater Holy Spirit Cult can’t deal with them!"View the correct content at NovelFire
"Bai Jie, give them Ye Chenfeng’s information!" Ouyang Qingcheng ordered.
"Okay!"
Bai Jie handed over a laptop to Kurokawa and his men.
"Hmph, Ye Chenfeng? Just you watch, Miss Ouyang, I will get two keys tonight, and soon enough, you will also become my woman!" Kurokawa arrogantly declared before leaving with his subordinates.
"Master, why did you give them Ye Chenfeng’s information?" Bai Jie asked, puzzled.
"Hehe, they have designs on me, they were asking for death. Why not lead them to Ye Chenfeng!" Ouyang Qingcheng sneered.
