Chapter 139: The Transience of Youth and Beauty

  The door opened and Li Yi saw Wang Shanshan, calm and composed, saying: "Shanshan, how did you get here?"

  "I just saw Zhang Xiaoliang, he was supervising the decoration over there, so I asked him if he knew where you were?" Wang Shanshan explained, "He told me you were here, so I came to find you..." Although she didn't ask, from her expression it could be seen that she was very curious about why Li Yi had come here.

  "I'm brewing medicine over here, there are several patients who need some medication to cure their illnesses." Li Yi replied.

  "So that's how it is! Can I see how you refine it?" Wang Shanshan had never seen alchemy before, and she was very curious about how the elixir was refined.

  "I've already refined it," said Li Yi.

  Wang Shanshan was somewhat disappointed at the same time, but still said: "Then I also want to go in and take a look, refining Dan medicine needs those things, you're not not letting me go in, are you?"

  "What's going on? Come in!" Li Yi said with a forced tone.

  As soon as he entered the door, Wang Shanshan saw Su Mengxi in the room and was taken aback, saying: "You, how are you here?"

  "King Shanshan is right! I haven't seen you for a long time." Su Mengxi walked over with a smile, and secretly glanced at Li Yi, hinting that he should think of an explanation quickly.

  "Ah! We meet again! This time you're not here to catch him, are you?" Wang Shanshan said worriedly.

  Li Yi also thought of an explanation and smiled: "Of course not, she's here to help me."

  "Help you?" Wang Shanshan really couldn't think of what Li Yi wanted the police to help him with.

  "Hmph! Of course I'm here to help you, and help you cultivate together." Su Mengxi thought to herself, but didn't dare say it out loud, saying instead, "Yes! I'm here to help him."

  Li Yi felt that the words sounded strange, and was afraid that Su Mengxi had misspoken. He lightly coughed and said: "I wasn't just refining medicine earlier, I asked her to help me take it for testing to see if there were any problems. You also know that our line of work isn't easy, in case the patient has some kind of adverse reaction, and it gets blamed on me, then it would be hard to explain."

  Wang Shanshan was a simple girl, she didn't think much and said: "Officer Su, thank you."

  "No need to be polite, it's just a small effort." Su Mengxi suddenly changed the subject and said, "I have something else to attend to, you guys chat." After that, she left.

  Only two people were left in the room, Wang Shanshan saw Chu Dading and exclaimed: "Li Yi, what is this?"

  "That's Chu Da Ding." Li Yi said truthfully.

  King waved his hand and said, "I'm asking what it's used for?"

  "Uh... of course it's alchemy." Li Yi said with a bitter smile, he didn't even believe himself.

  As expected, Wang Shanshan didn't believe that such a large cauldron could refine medicine at all. He said, "But this is too big!" As he spoke, he quickly walked forward.

  It's unclear whether it was a coincidence or fate, but the place where Wang Shanshan walked to happened to be the exact spot where they had just been whispering.

  Just as they arrived there, Wang Shanshan smelled a strange smell and frowned: "Li Yi, what is this smell?"

  Li Yi secretly called out "not good", just now he had forgotten to open the window for ventilation, and could only force himself to say: "This is the smell of medicinal dan."

  "What's that smell of Dan medicine?" Wang Shanshan nodded slightly, then thought of something and shook her head, "No, I've smelled this before..."

  "You, have you smelled it?" Li Yi asked tensely, had he figured it out?!

  Wang Shanshan nodded affirmatively and looked at Li Yi, saying: "Do you still remember that night? When I used my mouth to help you with that, it was this taste..."

  "Shanshan, you didn't smell it wrong, did you?" Li Yi hastily said, "This is indeed the scent of a medicinal pill."

  Wang Shanshan didn't think she had misheard and, thinking of Su Mengxi who had just left, couldn't help but ask: "Li Yi, weren't you guys doing that earlier?!"

  "Shanshan, where did you think I was going? Am I that kind of person?" Li Yi denied with an excuse, "Besides, there isn't even a bed here, how can we do it?"

  "She can use this!" Wang Shanshan pointed to her mouth.

  Li Yi was speechless for a moment, and this girl actually dared to think that way. He said, "I'm a police officer, do you think I can kneel down and do it for you?"

  Wang Shanshan saw Li Yi's tense appearance and burst out laughing, saying: "Alright, I was just joking with you. Even if you admit it, I wouldn't believe she did that." She raised her head to take a look at the medicine cauldron and found that there were indeed many medicinal dregs inside, and she believed that Li Yi had been refining medicine here.

  Li Yi didn't want to continue on this topic, he was really afraid of being exposed, and said: "Let's go out for a walk!"

  "Ah! I just so happen to have something to ask you, come with me!" Wang Shanshan said.

  The two walked out of the room, Li Yi locked the door and said, "Where are we going?"

  "Ah!" Wang sighed, saying helplessly, "I found that my mom has aged a lot, perhaps she's been working too hard for the family over the years. Her forehead is full of wrinkles, it's really painful to see. So, I want to help her buy some cosmetics and take care of her skin, what do you think?"

  Li Yi just wanted to leave here quickly and go anywhere, so he said: "Okay! Let's go now!"

  "Beauty fades with age, and youth is fleeting." Wang Shanshan suddenly sighed, "Li Yi, if I become old and not beautiful in the future, will you still love me?"

  "You will never grow old," said Li Yi, "You will always be this beautiful."

  "Don't tease me, do you mean to say that I've always been this beautiful in your heart?" Wang Shanshan smiled wryly and turned the conversation around, "Do you want me to live on in your heart?"

  "Hmm... I didn't mean it that way." Li Yi said, "Do you know what kind of pill I was refining just now?"

  Wang Shanshan shook his head and said, "I don't know."

  "One of them is called Stay Youthful Pill, as long as you take it, your looks will remain the same as when you took it." Li Yi had already thought it through, if the Stay Youthful Pill really worked, he would give one to each of the women by his side.

  "Really?!" Wang Shanshan was somewhat incredulous, "Is there really such a pill in this world?"

  "Don't forget, I'm a cultivator." Li Yi said with a sly smile, "If there's such a pill, do you want it?"

  King Shanshan of course, which woman does not hope to keep her youth forever, said: "Why don't you want to?" After finishing, she thought of something again and continued: "After taking the Rejuvenating Pill, if my appearance doesn't change, will my body still develop? If it won't develop, I'd rather not take it." As she spoke, she lowered her head to glance at her chest.

  Wang Shanshan's breasts are not small, but compared to Su Mengxi and others, they are not in the same league.

  Li Yi also knew what she meant, and he immediately hugged her in his arms, saying: "If you care about this, I can tell you a way."

  "I don't care about this, don't all you men care about its size?" Wang Shanshan said with a blush.

  Li Yi thought, does he care? He doesn't seem to care much, but who knows, his woman's breasts are bigger, and the airport feels nothing when touched.

  Wang Shanshan saw Li Yi's silence and thought she had said something wrong, so she said: "Alright! I care about you, don't tell me to use papaya milk or anything like that."

  "Of course not, as long as you touch it often, that's enough." Li Yi made a stroking motion.

  "Hum! You're so mean, always taking advantage of me. I'm not talking to you anymore." Wang Shanshan said, her face flushing with embarrassment as she quickly ran out of the store.

  Li Yi smiled and followed him, calling Zhang Xiaoliang on the phone, driving towards the city center.

  After buying a lot of cosmetics, on the way back, Wang Shanshan thought of something and said: "Li Yi, my grandfather's illness has been cured, he asked when you will go over?"

  Speaking of which, Li Yi's eyebrows moved and he said: "By the way, where are Uncle and Aunt living now?"

  "I live with my mom, and Grandpa lives with Dad." Wang Shanshan's house was very small, upstairs there were only two rooms besides the living room.

  As expected, Li Yi felt that he should do something for Wang Shanshan and said: "Shanshan, why don't we go buy a house?"

  "Ah! Are we going to buy a house?" Wang Shanshan was stunned, looking down and saying, "We're not even at the legal age for marriage yet, what's the point of buying a house now?"

  Li Yi didn't expect this girl to think of that, pinching her hand and saying: "You want to marry me?"

  "If we don't get married, what's the point of buying a house?" Wang Shanshan retorted.

  Xiao Liang was driving when he suddenly said: "Sister-in-law, Yi Ge wants to cohabitate with you."

  As soon as these words came out, Wang's face turned even redder, and she lowered her head, unsure of what to say.

  Li Yi glared at Zhang Xiaoliang and said in a bad temper: "Don't listen to what you shouldn't, don't say what you shouldn't."

  "Uh..." Zhang Xiaoliang knew he had misspoken and coughed awkwardly, saying "Yi Ge, I didn't hear anything..."

  Li Yi pulled Wang Shanshan's hand and said, "Of course not, you guys aren't always living in the store, right? I want to buy a house for you, what do you think?"

  "This is not good! Houses are very expensive now." Wang Shanshan didn't want Li Yi to spend money, after all, Li Yi had already spent a lot of money for their family.

  "You're my girlfriend, I should buy you a house." Li Yi stroked Wang Shanshan's hair, his eyes filled with unspoken tenderness.

  Wang Shanshan felt a little guilty, after all, she still hadn't given her first time to Li Yi, and Li Yi was still as good to her as ever. She couldn't help but say: "Li Yi, is it really worth spending so much money on me? I'm just an ordinary girl, you have so much money, you can definitely find a better girl than me."

  "Silly girl, even if they are excellent, what can I do if I don't love them?" Li Yi had his own thoughts and said seriously, "Love cannot be measured by money. If love can be bought with money, is it still true love? I love you, my money is your money, do we need to distinguish between each other?"

  These words were really too touching, Wang Shanshan listened and listened, tears streaming down her face, and rushed into Li Yi's arms, sobbing softly, "Li Yi, why are you so good to me?"

  "You're my wife, if I'm not good to you, who would I be good to?" Li Yi said softly.

  Wang Shanshan suddenly lifted her head, gazing into Li Yi's eyes, and said word by word: "Husband, I... I love you." As she spoke, she proactively offered a romantic kiss.

  After a kiss, the emotions between the two people increased a lot. Li Yi saw that they were approaching the school and said: "Xiao Liang, is there a better house around here?"

  "Yes! There are many houses nearby, most of which are existing ones. Communities like Shiji City, Peninsula No. 1, and Huafu Mingzhu are all good. The property management in this area is under my responsibility." Zhang Xiaoliang said in detail, "I think Peninsula No. 1 is the best. It's a community built around Meichong Lake with an area of over 1,000 mu, consisting of villas and townhouses. The environment is beautiful and very suitable for young people to enjoy life..."

  "Enough!" Li Yi coughed lightly and said seriously, "Then let's go to Peninsula No. 1!"
