Chapter 111 The Real World: Everyday Life
Su Jinshi moved into Fu Cinian's large apartment with all the bags and suitcases given to him by his sister.
The day after Su Jinshi moved in, Su Jinyue gave him a gene serum disguised as a traditional Chinese medicine formula.
Su Jinshi looked at his sister speechlessly, wanting to tell her to believe in science, but seeing Su Jinyue's determined eyes, he couldn't continue.
Since it wouldn't hurt him to drink it, he decided to go along with his sister's suggestion for now.
Seeing that Su Jinshi obediently drank it, Su Jinyue nodded in satisfaction.
The effects of gene therapy on the human body are gradual and subtle, without causing significant reactions. By the time Su Jinshi has his next check-up, his leukemia should be cured.
Although the recovery was a bit faster, one could use the excuse of early detection and timely medication, or simply blame it on traditional Chinese medicine.
Even after using the gene serum on Su Jinshi, Su Jinyue didn't let her guard down and rummaged through her spatial storage for anything else she could use on Su Jinshi.
Looking around, the only things that can be taken out so far are the spiritual spring water and the fruits and vegetables from the space, which won't arouse suspicion.
Su Jinyue added spiritual spring water to the drinking water at home, but only a little bit, so the effect wouldn't be very noticeable.
Then there are the three meals a day. Su Jinyue spends most of her time in the kitchen every day, cooking for Fu Cinian and Su Jinshi.
Su Jinshi saw that her sister was working too hard in the kitchen and wanted to help, but Su Jinyue chased her out of the kitchen.
Fu Cinian couldn't stand it either and suggested that they could hire a nanny so that Su Jinyue wouldn't have to stay in the kitchen every day.
Su Jinyue quickly stopped her. The reason she cooked herself was to replace the ingredients in the space. If there was another person, she would be at risk of being exposed.
However, Fu Cinian's good intentions could not be ignored, so in the end, a compromise was reached: a maid was hired to come to the house to clean every day at fixed times, while Su Jinyue still took care of the kitchen.
Su Jinyue was busy taking care of Su Jinshi, so she didn't have time to accompany Fu Cinian to the company.
For some reason, Fu Cinian stopped going to the company. He had his work delivered to his home by Assistant Lu every day, and meetings were held via video conference in his study.
Su Jinyue stopped thinking about it if she couldn't figure it out. Anyway, it was hard for an ordinary person like her to guess what Fu Cinian was thinking.
However, it's good that Fu Cinian is at home, as it makes it convenient for Su Jinyue to feed two people at once.
Su Jinyue also had Assistant Lu customize two wooden bathtubs, one for the master bedroom bathroom and one for the common bathroom.
She bought some medicinal herbs for bathing and books on traditional Chinese medicine online, and told the two of them that taking a bath is good for their health.
In fact, Su Jinyue was preparing to draw qi into her body.
Although spiritual energy is scarce in this Dharma-ending Age, and she still possesses five spiritual roots, even a small amount is better than nothing. Moreover, Su Jinyue has a spatial dimension as a backup.
After drawing qi into the body, even if it is only at the Qi Refining stage, the body's physical strength will be greatly improved after undergoing the cleansing and marrow-refining process.
With improved physical fitness, you can also practice martial arts, such as martial arts or boxing classes, to prepare for showcasing your skills in the future.
Of course, taking a bath wasn't without its benefits for Fu Cinian and Su Jinshi.
She replaced all the medicinal herbs with those grown in her space, and Fu Cinian had someone review the prescription. It was confirmed that the herbs were indeed beneficial to the body, so Fu Cinian reluctantly agreed.
Su Jinyue did not intend to hide the existence of the space from Fu Cinian if he were the only one present.
But since Su Jinshi was still at home, Su Jinyue didn't plan to talk about it. This matter had too much of an impact on him, so she decided to wait and see.
Su Jinyue took out a body-tempering prescription, but the one she showed to outsiders was abridged, containing some herbs that were not available in modern times. She would secretly add them in when it was being decocted.
Body tempering is very painful, and Su Jinyue was afraid they wouldn't be able to endure it, so she reduced the dosage. Anyway, soaking in it a few more times would have a similar effect.
Moreover, Su Jinyue always uses spiritual spring water for her baths, which only makes the effects better!
Fu Cinian and Su Jinshi were somewhat skeptical about the effects of the bath, but Su Jinyue was indignant and decided to try it out for them first!
Su Jinyue had no problem at all. After drawing Qi into her body, she successfully cleansed her meridians and marrow, and even used the spiritual energy of the space to cultivate to the third level of the Qi Refining stage in one go.
Fearing that spending too much time in the washroom would arouse their suspicion, Su Jinyue stopped cultivating after reaching the third level of the Qi Refining stage.
After she washed herself clean, she looked at her body in the mirror and found that her body was whiter and more radiant, her skin was smooth and delicate, her complexion was rosy, and she was a hundred times more energetic than before!
When Su Jinyue came out of the washroom, she noticed that Fu Cinian and Su Jinshi both looked at her with amazement.
Su Jinyue tilted her head back triumphantly, gave a soft snort, and said, "Let's see if they dare to question me again!"
Seeing that the prescription was truly effective, the two of them stopped refusing and endured the pain.
When it was time to get out of the bath, I saw that the water inside was almost black, and I wondered, were their bodies really that dirty?
However, the effects of the body tempering were still very noticeable. I felt full of power, and I no longer cared about that little thing.
After a course of body tempering, and with the nourishment of spiritual spring water, spiritual vegetables and fruits by Su Jinyue, Su Jinshi's originally thin and weak body visibly became stronger, gaining weight and developing muscles.
As for Fu Cinian, needless to say.
With Su Jinyue's constant feeding, Fu Cinian's exercise sessions became more and more frequent.
Moreover, Su Jinyue wondered if she had overdone Fu Cinian's treatment.
Fu Cinian clearly used his excess energy on her!
Moreover, Su Jinyue had agreed to Fu Cinian's condition that Su Jinshi live in his home, so she simply couldn't refuse him!
She could only passively endure it every night, and even she, who was already at the third level of Qi Refining, couldn't withstand Fu Cinian's strength.
"I can't give him any more," Su Jinyue thought to herself just before falling asleep, utterly exhausted.
Fu Cinian carried Su Jinyue to the bathroom, and after cleaning her up, he carried her to the bed.
Throughout the entire process, Su Jinyue remained unconscious.
After Fu Cinian turned off the bedroom light, lifted the covers and got into bed, he found that Su Jinyue seemed to sense his presence. She leaned over and snuggled into his arms, finding a comfortable position and then remained still.
Fu Cinian held Su Jinyue in his arms and gazed at her sleeping face for a long time. Seeing that she didn't react, he smiled helplessly.
What a clueless little fool!
Does she think her flawed behavior during this period is clever?
Su Jinshi has begun to suspect her!
If he hadn't covered for her, she would have been exposed long ago.
He could also claim that the vegetables and fruits were air-freighted daily from farms abroad, so the taste of the dishes he made was incomparable to what it used to be.
However, the effect of body tempering was so remarkable that he had never seen any traditional Chinese medicine prescription that could achieve such an effect.
Moreover, the medicinal herbs seem to be extraordinary...
