"While I'm not in a terribly bad mood, you'd better take your women and leave my hotel immediately!" Tang Jian threw the money to Hao Jian without a care, still looking displeased. As someone who runs a hotel, especially a personal one in this scenic area, he's never short on money. "There's half a million in this card. If it doesn't work, or even if there's just a slight effect, I won't ask for it back. It's yours!" Hao Jian didn't leave but calmly pulled out an anonymous bank card given to him by the bank from his wallet. The cardholder just needed to take the card to any bank counter to withdraw the money inside. In other words, they only acknowledge the card, not the person. Seeing Hao Jian's insistence and the large sum he offered to prove his remedy, Tang Jian hesitated. A thousand yuan might not have mattered to him, but half a million made him waver. This man dares to bring out so much money, proving his confidence. But should he believe him? Looking at the bank card in his hand, one belonging to the half a million category he had the fortune to see once before, it also highlighted Hao Jian's extraordinariness. "I'll trust you this time!" Gritting his teeth, Tang Jian finally chose to believe. There aren't many people who can prove themselves with such an amount, and even if something went wrong, the half a million would be his. But more than the money, he hoped Hao Jian's remedy would work. His wife was much more important. Although making that much money isn't easy in a short time, as long as she's well, money can always be earned. "Hao Jian, you're back?!" The few women who got tired of playing with the flowers and plants sat in the boss's living room watching TV. Hearing the commotion at the door, they peeked out to see Hao Jian and Tang Jian. Instinctively, they shifted their gaze to the fresh sweet potato leaves in Tang Jian's hands. These sweet potato leaves were the ones Hao Jian retrieved again. The previous ones had been crushed by Tang Jian, severely reducing their medicinal properties, so they couldn't be used anymore. Unlike the initial careless crushing, this time Tang Jian held the leaves as if they were precious white crystals, afraid they might get damaged. "What are you doing this for?" Lin Qingxue pointed at the sweet potato leaves in Tang Jian's hands, looking puzzled. "These are for treating the boss's wife. Oh, by the way, we also need some herbs..." Hao Jian smiled and nodded, ignoring the astonished looks from the women, and bent down to pluck some herbs with medicinal properties he'd noticed before. These particular herbs were the reason the boss's wife lost her appetite, and now Hao Jian intended to let Ke Yilian consume them with some techniques to help her adapt to these herbs. After all, with her exposure to these herbs over time, they'd already infected her body. Instead of calling them herbs, they were more like faintly toxic plants. Left alone, these plants are just ordinary grasses, albeit aesthetically pleasing, but when several are together, they release toxins affecting human body functions. Especially for pregnant women, they are particularly deadly because during pregnancy, a woman's body is weaker than before, making them more susceptible. Tang Jian hadn't noticed because he often climbs mountains and seldom stays home, so he hadn't absorbed too much toxicity. However, when the medicine is ready, he should drink a bowl to prevent trouble. "I hope you're for real..." Watching the herbs boiling together, Tang Jian's expression shifted from dark to light, eventually sighing and directing a comment to Hao Jian. "Don't worry, you'll see my skills in a moment." Hao Jian smiled and patted Tang Jian on the shoulder, feeling perhaps it was due to the phonetic resemblance in their names, or perhaps because he simply wanted to stay one more night. His gaze lingered momentarily on Lin Qingxue in the distance, a gentle curve forming at the corners of his mouth. In his heart, he confirmed the reason: it was her. Time passed, and from the original eight or nine o'clock, it quickly became eleven. Observing the broth simmering over a double boiler, Hao Jian's eyes remained calm. At this time, Lin Qingxue and the others were beginning to yawn repeatedly. Unfortunately, with Ke Yilian not yet cured, they couldn't check-in. This rule was one that Hao Jian and the others had set, and no one could break it. However, Tang Jian also allowed the women to lie down on his large sofa in the meantime. As the clock neared twelve... "Alright, take this for your wife to drink now. It should take effect within half an hour!" Seeing the pitch-black broth's temperature drop, Hao Jian smiled at Tang Jian, prompting him to take the bowl upstairs for his wife to consume. Hearing this, Tang Jian nodded weakly, lightly squeezing the bank card in his hand as a mental boost before carrying the bowl of medicinal soup upstairs with skepticism. "Any of you still awake, come help me out." Seeing Tang Jian head upstairs, Hao Jian waved his hand towards the dozing women, saying, "Check the kitchen for ingredients; we're going to cook." "Hao Jian, what do you mean by this?" Lin Qingxue asked in confusion. They had just finished dinner, and none of them had the habit of eating supper. Now that Hao Jian saw Tang Jian leave, he wanted to cook. What kind of logic is this? Hao Jian heard this and didn't mind. Instead, he smiled mysteriously and said, "Just listen to me, and you'll understand what's going on in a moment." Actually, there was one more thing Hao Jian didn't say. It was that once the bowl of herbal soup was consumed, and the toxin was neutralized, the body would feel extremely hungry. This could be considered one of the side effects of drinking the herbal soup. After all, Ke Yilian couldn't eat earlier, so this buildup had to be released naturally. While Hao Jian and others were busy in the kitchen, Tang Jian was carrying the herbal soup to the bedroom door, opened it, and walked inside. "What's wrong, honey?" "Honey, this is the herbal soup brewed by the doctor for you. If you don't want to drink it, we won't." The first thing Tang Jian said upon entering the room was this, but the clever Ke Yilian could detect the reluctance in her husband's voice. Immediately guessing a bit, she asked, "Honey, did something happen? Tell me..." Tang Jian sighed and shook his head. He couldn't hide from his wife, so he placed the herbal soup on the bedside table and recounted what had happened with Hao Jian earlier. The matter wasn't much; Tang Jian explained everything within two or three minutes, and after listening to Tang Jian's explanation, Ke Yilian had her own plan. Her husband's surprised expression relaxed as she slightly smiled and said, "I trust that doctor; they don't have anything to gain from us." "Be careful when you drink it. If anything happens, put it down immediately." Tang Jian was still a bit worried and gave another reminder. "Alright, aren't you here with me?" Ke Yilian waved her hand, reached out and grabbed the dark herbal soup, carefully taking a sip, causing her brows to wrinkle slightly. Tang Jian, who was always paying attention to his wife's condition, felt a surge of anxiety when he saw her frown, thinking something was wrong. But then he saw his wife down the entire bowl of the herbal soup in one go. "Why is this herbal soup sweet?" After finishing the soup, Ke Yilian's pretty face showed confusion. She wondered if it was a misperception, as earlier even drinking a glass of water was difficult, yet she managed to consume the herbal soup easily. "Honey... honey... you drank it all?!" It was the first time Tang Jian saw his wife consume something so cleanly, and he was incredulous. Then, as if remembering something, he sighed and shook his head, realizing the doctor was right. At this moment, he understood that his wife had consumed something she previously found difficult to swallow. "Strange, my stomach feels warm." Touching her stomach, Ke Yilian felt a bit helpless, because after drinking the herbal soup, she sensed her stomach was somewhat empty, as if there was nothing left to digest. Her stomach suddenly growled, making Ke Yilian's face blush, and she glared at the stunned Tang Jian, letting out a coquettish hum, "I'm hungry. Aren't you going to make me something to eat?!" Tang Jian left the room, his mind a bit muddled, and unknowingly he arrived in the kitchen, suddenly awakened by the sound of cooking. "What are you doing?" "Cooking, didn't you see?" Hao Jian spoke calmly. Since Tang Jian came down with that expression, it indicated the herbal soup was working normally. All that remained was to finish preparing these dishes. Hearing this, Tang Jian nodded quickly, his face slightly flushed, and rushed to Hao Jian, looking at this confident young doctor, finally sighed and bowed slightly to Hao Jian. "The doctor is indeed wise!" "Haha, no need to be polite!" Hao Jian chuckled lightly and said, "Since the herbal soup worked, you should drink that bowl too. Your body has issues, albeit subtle." Sweet potato leaves are naturally detoxifying, although the effect is mild, but Hao Jian needed this mild detoxification effect. This was essential to neutralize the medicinal herbs and make them into a life-saving herbal soup. "Me? I have issues too?!" Upon hearing this, Tang Jian's expression changed slightly, as he always had a good appetite! But ultimately, he followed Hao Jian's advice and drank the one remaining bowl of herbal soup, clearly indicating that Hao Jian had prepared this in advance.
