Chapter 2344: Chapter 2345: Recovery

This reminded Lin Chen of Xiao Bai’s previous gestures. That appearance, Lin Chen certainly remembered.

It meant that Fang Qianqian had a familiar aura to Xiao Bai.

But now it seems that this feeling of familiarity might be much more than just that. Following behind Fang Qianqian, Lin Chen’s eyes were filled with a growing confusion as he looked at her.

She seemed to be hiding many secrets, mysterious and elusive. Beneath her sunny and cheerful exterior, there was always a thin layer of mist.

Although Lin Chen thought so, when he saw Xiao Bai throwing itself onto Fang Qianqian, Fang Lin’s expression subtly changed.

Currently, Xiao Bai might look very small, but it’s still a fierce beast. In the previous forest, Fang Lin had seen this strange beast’s state, and it was very frightening. Yet now it suddenly leapt into Fang Qianqian’s arms, which shocked Fang Lin a bit, also causing him some concern.

However, upon seeing that Xiao Bai had no malicious intent, he slightly relaxed.

"How are you, Qianqian, your body now..."

Fang Lin was very concerned about this, knowing that Fang Qianqian’s internal injuries were quite severe. If she couldn’t fully recover, it wouldn’t be long before her life was in danger.

Previously, they sustained her life through herbal remedies, but that was only a temporary fix, not a fundamental solution. It would eventually prove ineffective.

"Daddy, I am completely healed now, no need to worry."

Fang Qianqian smiled gently, her complexion rosy and glowing, without a trace of illness. However, having not rested the entire night, she appeared somewhat tired, her spirit slightly weak.

"That’s good, that’s good," Fang Lin murmured repeatedly, his eyes involuntarily welling up again.

During all these years of Fang Qianqian’s injuries, he had tried countless methods to restore her body, but he was only a Clan Leader. Although the Fang Family was somewhat renowned in Qingmu City, it was merely impressive to those with little power or to ordinary people.

Facing the vast world filled with powerful beings, Fang Lin naturally couldn’t come up with any solutions.

Even offering the wealth accumulated by his entire clan might not catch others’ interest—that’s the disparity.

Therefore, feeling helpless, Fang Lin could only rely on medicine to sustain Fang Qianqian’s life.

Now, hearing Fang Qianqian speak like that, Fang Lin couldn’t help but breathe a long sigh of relief, fully releasing all the emotions accumulated until now.

Fang Qianqian set Xiao Bai down, then placed her hand on Fang Lin’s shoulder, saying softly, "Daddy, I am healed now, and have a chance to cultivate anew. All that is in the past."

She comforted him, her voice soft and tender, like a gentle stream that nourished Fang Lin’s heart.

Fang Lin lifted his head, his eyes carrying a sense of comfort and a hint of another emotion.

"It’s all thanks to Brother Lin. If Brother Lin ever has any requests, as long as my Fang Family can accomplish it, we will not refuse!"

Fang Lin wiped the remnants from the corners of his eyes and said candidly to Lin Chen.

No one would doubt the sincerity of his words, as he valued his daughter more than his own life.

"If possible, I would like some more of that rejuvenation herb."

Lin Chen rubbed his nose, smiling faintly.

This was the purpose of his visit, and he wouldn’t forget. Now that Fang Lin mentioned it, Lin Chen felt no hesitation in making the request.

"Rest assured, Brother Lin. Ever since I heard that Brother Lin needed the rejuvenation herb to save a life, I’ve had people collecting it in the city."

Fang Lin nodded as he spoke. He had been preparing this since returning to the clan, understanding that if they wanted to ally with Lin Chen, such things were indispensable.

Moreover, Lin Chen had just cured Fang Qianqian’s illness, deepening the family’s gratitude.

"Then I must trouble you," Lin Chen cupped his hands politely.

"It’s nothing. I should be the one thanking Brother Lin."

Fang Lin hurriedly raised Lin Chen’s hand and said.

...

After some pleasantries, Lin Chen dined with them and then returned to his own residence.

Currently, he didn’t wish to disturb Fang Lin and his daughter.

With Fang Qianqian just recovering from serious injuries, the two must have much to discuss. The nature of this conversation was certainly different from past ones, so Lin Chen wisely refrained from interrupting.

Since the rejuvenation herb had yet to arrive, Lin Chen could only wait patiently in his room for the people searching outside to return with it.

At that moment, Tang Ming was nowhere to be found, but a nearby maid mentioned that he had let them know he was going outside to find Jiang Ningyan.

After last night’s ordeal, who knew what the Jiang Family’s current situation was? Although Lin Chen was unconcerned, Tang Ming was very anxious.

With his elbow lightly resting on the tabletop, perhaps from the excessive exhaustion of last night, Lin Chen’s consciousness was greatly drained. As his head rested on his hand, his eyes involuntarily narrowed slightly, a hint of fatigue setting in.

After some time had passed, the door creaked open, followed by a pleasant fragrance, very refreshing.

Whether due to the fragrance or the sound of the door, Lin Chen lightly "hmm"-ed, then opened his eyes.

Looking up, Fang Qianqian had already stepped in through the door, seated herself opposite Lin Chen, and gently placed a jade tray she carried on the table.

"The person collecting the rejuvenation herb has returned, but the city’s stock is quite limited, so there’s only this much. I hope my benefactor won’t hold it against us."

Fang Qianqian spoke as she pushed the tray toward Lin Chen. The green hue atop it piled up, consisting of several dozen herbs, exactly what Lin Chen needed.

"Not at all, this is already quite a lot."

Lin Chen, seeing these items, realized they had done their best. Such herbs are typically in low demand and difficult to preserve, so the limited quantity was normal.

"I’m glad my benefactor doesn’t mind." Fang Qianqian let out a relieved sigh, almost as if a burden had been lifted.

"Please, don’t call me ’benefactor’, just call me Lin Chen. Hearing that always feels strange," Lin Chen quickly waved his hand, not fond of the title.

"Lin... Lin Chen."

After a moment’s thought, Fang Qianqian’s brows rarely furrowed slightly. Supporting her chin with one hand, she seemed unused to it, her speech a bit hesitant.

"That’s much better," Lin Chen nodded.
