CHAPTER 434: CHAPTER 433: IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY, JUST SAY IT! (SECOND UPDATE)
After Yun Ran accepted the thank-you gift from the Wang Family, the two sides didn’t have much interaction, and Yun Jinyang hurried back to Hai City.
With the Ginsengfruit in tow, Yun Ran spent several days leisurely exploring the surroundings of the Capital City.
Once she sensed that Luo Rusheng’s health had reached her desired standard, Yun Ran returned to the hotel in the city with the Ginsengfruit.
"Host, don’t you think the atmosphere in the Capital City seems a bit different?"
From the perspective of an ordinary person, there’s actually not much change, except that there seem to be more patrolling people, but nothing else affected.
"Internal disputes within the Wang Family might affect some people, but it won’t disrupt the normal functioning of society."
The Ginsengfruit immediately dismissed this matter from its mind; as long as it didn’t affect its eating, drinking, and playing, nothing else mattered.
After resting at the hotel for a night, early the next morning, Yun Ran headed to the alley in front of the Luo family’s house with the Ginsengfruit.
As soon as she knocked, the scruffy old man immediately opened the door. Unlike the first time when he opened just a crack, this time, he swung the whole door wide open.
Seeing Yun Ran, his face broke into a huge smile: "Master Yun, you’ve come, please come in quickly."
Perhaps because the situation of the Luo family members had improved, the old man bent his waist nearly ninety degrees to show his respect for Yun Ran.
Noticing an extra presence inside the house, Yun Ran casually asked, "Have your young master and miss returned?"
The old man’s smile became even more genuine: "Yes, thanks to your blessings, both the young master and miss have recovered well after coming back."
Yun Ran didn’t stop but continued to the drooping flower gate where she noticed a Shy Grass, which should have been in the flowerbed, now being kept in a beautiful antique flower pot.
Seeing Yun Ran’s gaze fall on the grass, the scruffy old man hurriedly explained.
"This grass, after being touched by Master Yun, grew very well. I transplanted it to a pot and will take good care of it. Us old folks used to plant ginseng in the deep mountains..."
Yun Ran paused for a moment; this grass seemed to have benefited from her touch, giving her an indescribable feeling.
This time, instead of dying from just a glance from Yun Ran, the Shy Grass stretched its branches and leaves, trying to touch Yun Ran, obviously wanting to please her.
In response, Yun Ran haughtily turned her head away: it had died of fright before, and now it wanted to curry favor—no way!
She marched straight into the second courtyard.
Shy Grass: ...
When Luo Rusheng heard Yun Ran had arrived, he quickly tidied his clothes and rushed to the drawing room with a smile exactly like the scruffy old man’s.
"Master, thank you for coming all this way."
Yun Ran nodded reservedly, picked up the teacup, sipped it, and then said, "Some life energy has been restored in you. Now, I can proceed."
With that, she gave Luo Rusheng no time to prepare before directly extracting the last bit of resentment from his body.
Luo Rusheng let out a miserable cry and collapsed to the ground, looking as if he had suffered some severe torture, with his clothes drenched as if fished out of water.
The moment the resentment was pulled out, Luo Rusheng clearly felt that he almost couldn’t catch his breath.
Now, he seemed to understand why Master Yun hadn’t acted directly before.
With his previous physical condition, acting before would have surely killed him.
The scruffy old man and his two waiting children outside were holding their breath at the sound of the scream.
No one dared to utter a word for fear of accidentally disturbing Master Yun.
At this moment, though Luo Rusheng felt emptied, the burden on his body seemed to have disappeared, and his health finally returned.
As he was about to express his gratitude, his mouth opened, and he spat out a mouthful of foul-smelling, rancid black blood.
Yun Ran and the Ginsengfruit had already blocked their sense of smell, so they felt nothing.
However, Luo Rusheng, overwhelmed by the stench, started rolling his eyes.
His body was full of such disgusting substance; no wonder it had been deteriorating every day.
Upon smelling the odor from the doorway, those outside quickly covered their noses and mouths.
"Come in!"
With Yun Ran’s voice, the scruffy old man and the two half-grown kids pushed open the door.
A more intense stench rushed directly at their faces, and even with noses covered, their eyes stung.
The two kids couldn’t resist and turned around to run outside, unable to act improperly in front of such an esteemed guest.
The scruffy old man prodded several acupoints on himself, eventually getting somewhat accustomed to it.
Nonetheless, seeing Master Yun and her little disciple unfazed, his admiration for Yun Ran’s skill rose even higher in his heart.
Seeing the pool of disgusting black blood on the ground, he understood that this was the root cause of the gentleman’s serious illness.
He immediately bowed to Yun Ran: "Thank you, Master, for saving my master’s whole family."
Then, he quickly assisted the nearly unconscious Luo Rusheng to his feet.
"Master Yun, let me take you to the guest room to freshen up..."
Yun Ran didn’t refuse, even though she had blocked her sense of smell; she still felt as though the scent had clung to her.
She quickly freshened up, and the Ginsengfruit diligently washed and dried Yun Ran’s clothes.
Finally, it sidled up to Yun Ran, who was lying on the bed, fiddling with her phone and trying to catch up on sleep: "Host, I just checked outside, and the death energy around the house has basically disappeared."
Yun Ran replied irritably: "With me personally handling it, how could anything go wrong? That resentment from Luo Rusheng’s body was uprooted by me, naturally causing the death energy to vanish completely."
Just as she waved her hand to indicate the Ginsengfruit shouldn’t bother her anymore, she noticed its somewhat shy expression.
"Speak up if you have something to say; don’t hold it in!"
The Ginsengfruit giggled: "Host, we’re close to the shrine in the third section; I want to see those two treasures. What do you say..."
Yun Ran knew that the Ginsengfruit was just curious and had no intentions of coveting them.
However, since it was someone else’s territory, they were there for business and valued transparent transactions. If the Ginsengfruit showed interest, it might be misunderstood as a demand, which wouldn’t be good.
"Absolutely not!"
The Ginsengfruit drooped its head regretfully and said sulkily, "Alright~"
