From the Heavens Descended an Immortal Sister

Chapter 115: Chapter 113: Sadness (Second Update)_1

"Eternal youth?"

Mu Hui Qing stared blankly at the purple elixir in her hand, then looked at Fang Ren, "How can there be such a pill... "

"In theory, it's possible, but it has just been created, so I haven't had the time to observe all of its effects," Fang Ren said, "But this thing is at least a fifth-grade elixir. Its effects should be much more than just halting the aging of muscles and bones."

After a few seconds of pause, Mu Hui Qing turned to Fang Ren and said, "Ah Ran, in fact, I don't really care much about my own appearance... As long as my face is one that Ah Ran likes, that's good enough. Whether other people like my face or not doesn't matter."

"Silly girl, the main thing is that I look good when I take you out," Fang Ren said with a mischievous smile.

Once Mu Hui Qing heard this, she reached out to pinch his waist and puffed up her cheeks, "You just like to satisfy these little vanities."

"Anyway, I don't have much vanity, so can't Madame Xuan satisfy my little one?" Then Fang Ren smirked and said, "Besides, I am also... a little vain, after all."

"Rogue!"

Upon hearing that, Mu Hui Qing immediately knew what he was talking about and reached out to twist his waist again.

"Ow! Painful! Weren't you the one who said to make it quick?"

"I... say that again, and I will really hit you!"

"Mu Hui Qing! You've changed!"

"What's happened to me?"

"You just got pregnant and now you want to murder your own husband!"

"What are you talking about!"

...

After some playful bickering, Mu Hui Qing accepted the elixir with a smile, "Since Ah Ran's vanity is small, I'll satisfy Ah Ran. I will take good care of my face."

Fang Ren ruffled her hair and said with a smile, "Really silly, I was just joking. Right now, I'm not in the mood to worry about saving face. All I want to do is marry Qing'er quickly and live a happy and blissful life with her."

"Don't worry, it will happen soon." Mu Hui Qing nodded, her face serious yet smiling.

After holding each other close for a long while, silver light flowed over Mu Hui Qing's body, and with reluctance, she flew from the hotel window towards the distant horizon.

Fang Ren stood in place, watching Mu Hui Qing's departing figure, his expression becoming resolute as he slowly clenched his fist, "Central District Command, Indra Sky... none shall remain."

In the early hours of the morning at 3:30 AM, Liu Qianqian, who had fallen asleep against a streetlight, was awoken by the chilly air surrounding her.

Although it was summer, the weather hadn't been good these past few days, and the single layer of summer school uniform she wore couldn't withstand the chill of the night.

Bang—

As soon as she moved, she knocked over a bottle of forty-degree white liquor next to her, which rolled on the curb, emitting a crisp sound.

"Hm?"

Liu Qianqian felt her head spinning, unable to shake off the scent of alcohol, as the bottle continued to leak out some white liquor.

She had never drunk before, and less than half a bottle of the forty-degree liquor had almost caused her to crash into a streetlight last night. Fortunately, she hadn't wandered off, or she might have been hit by passing vehicles on the road and killed on the spot.

Looking at the deserted street, Liu Qianqian felt her body shivering with cold and stiffness, yet the burning pain in her stomach still hadn't subsided.

"Where did she go last night?"

"I don't know; she ran out after getting a phone call last night."

...

While the three girls were talking and pouring the water, Liu Qianqian had already curled up on the bed, closed her eyes, and fallen asleep again as the alcohol hit her once more.

"Qianqian, get up and drink some hot water."

Li Xinyue propped up the sleeping Liu Qianqian, gently patted her cheek, and frowned with concern, "How much did you drink anyway? You fall asleep the moment you hit the bed."

"Fang Ren... why didn't you come and confess to me..." mumbled Liu Qianqian as soon as Li Xinyue had propped her up.

Hearing this name, all three girls exchanged distressed looks. They all knew about Liu Qianqian's private feelings for Fang Ren, but since she always denied it, they never spread the word.

The stark reality was even more evident now that Liu Qianqian was drunkenly calling out someone's name. Her previous refusal of Fang Ren surely wasn't because she didn't like him, but for other reasons.

"The person you should like is me... You don't like her... Are you just getting mad at me..."

Suddenly, Liu Qianqian grabbed Li Xinyue's hand beside her, a look of deep sorrow on her face, tears glimmering in her eyes as she mumbled ambiguously.

Li Xinyue gently shook her, saying anxiously, "Qianqian, it's me."

"Just confess to me one more time... just once, even a hint would do... you're such a blockhead... so stupid!"

Talking and talking, Liu Qianqian suddenly collapsed back onto the bed, curling up and falling asleep. Li Xinyue and the others couldn't wake her, no matter how they tried.

A few minutes passed, and the girls were all at a loss.

"After all that, she went out drinking because of Fang Ren."

"I just don't get it, what's so good about Fang Ren? He isn't that handsome, his personality isn't particularly outstanding, and don't even mention his grades—how could she be so infatuated with him?"

"Sigh, let's not talk about it. She definitely went out to see Fang Ren last night," Li Xinyue sighed. "With Fang Ren's dense nature, whatever he said probably didn't even register as hurtful to Qianqian."

"It's hopeless if Qianqian had just agreed earlier, all this wouldn't be happening."

"She must have her reasons, but she never shares them with anyone."

...

Just as the girls were preparing to go to bed, Liu Qianqian started to mumble incoherently again.

"Ah Ran... I agree to it... don't go to the hotel with her... I'll agree to anything, just don't be with her... you won't have a future together... she never considered how much you'll suffer in the future..."

The girls looked at each other again, their faces a mixture of helplessness and sighs.

Just a few seconds after Liu Qianqian's words fell, she suddenly cried in the blankets, "Is it wrong for me not wanting you to suffer... am I wrong... I just didn't want you to get hurt..."

The tears kept falling, and Li Xinyue and the other two girls felt torn, unsure of what to do.

"That Fang Ren! What on earth did he say to Qianqian last night!" Li Xinyue said angrily.

"We'll ask him tomorrow what he means by all this! Does he really want to be a heartbreaker that badly?"

"Right! If he can't have Qianqian, he'll just continue to hurt her?"

...

The three girls went on talking, the atmosphere growing increasingly tense.
