Chapter 755: Chapter 756: Growing Old Together
Speaking of Wen Qingmu, Nianyang felt inexplicably heavy-hearted. She pursed her lips and changed the topic, "Ah Yan, I have a secret formula from my beautiful master to remain forever young. Do you think we should use it so we can stay youthful until weâre old?"
Li Tingyan shook his head, "No, thatâs just superficial. What I want more is to experience the ebb and flow of life with you and grow old together. Thatâs what gives life meaning."
Nianyang was taken aback, then slowly smiled, "Alright."

Nianyang had Li Tingyan drive to Wen Qingmuâs private herbal garden, which was a vast estate ten times larger than the Medicine Field in Nianyang Space. Beside the fields, there was a warehouse filled with well-organized mature herbal medicines.
There were also workers specifically hired by Wen Qingmu to manage the herbal garden.
They had obviously been instructed by Wen Qingmu ahead of time and addressed Nianyang directly as the boss upon seeing her.
Nianyang coordinated with them, providing her Chinese medicine shopâs address and instructing them to deliver herbs to Tongxin Hall regularly and in the specified amount every month.
"This is great, Ah Yan. With this herbal field, we now have a means to disguise the source if we take herbs from the space."
Nianyang said with a smile, feeling that her master was truly considerate, like sending a pillow when one wants to sleep.
After the Chinese medicine shop opened, there was a shortage of herbs, and some outside pharmacies simply didnât have everything. If she conjured them out of nowhere, it might cause unnecessary suspicion.
Now thatâs resolved with Wen Qingmuâs herbal field; these troubling doubts can be completely dispelled.
Li Tingyan was happy for Nianyang, his eyes twinkling,
"Elder Wen is very good to you. We should visit him more often in the future."
Nianyang glanced at him, "Do you have that much time to accompany me to visit my beautiful master?"
Li Tingyan chuckled awkwardly, "Iâll try my best. Anyway, itâs not just about me. Once the summer vacation starts, you have to start training too, and then follow me out to sea, so you wonât have time either."
That was indeed a dilemma!
Nianyang rubbed her chin thoughtfully, "Then we can only see if we can persuade the beautiful master to stay in the Big Courtyard. Itâs so lonely for him up in the mountains all by himself, spending holidays alone. I think itâs too pitiful."
Li Tingyan patted Nianyangâs head, "Letâs see. I feel that with Elder Wenâs personality, he probably wonât relocate."
Nianyang thought the same. Even if Wen Qingmu has come to terms with things now, the grudge with the Chu Family over the years wouldnât disappear immediately. Perhaps being alone still feels quite free to Wen Qingmu.

In the following days, Nianyang was fully dedicated to preparing for the opening of Tongxin Hall. To attract traffic, she even went to a printing shop to design promotional leaflets and had Angie and Fang Yun distribute them everywhere.
Itâs often said that a good start is half the battle. On the first day of opening, while they didnât demand booming business, a lively atmosphere was necessary.
The Divine Doctor Hall across the street seemed to be set on competing. Seeing Tongxin Hall handing out flyers, they followed suit and had people distribute leaflets as well.
Nianyang didnât pay attention to their clownish actions.
Two days before the opening, Nianyang received another call from the gatekeeper. This time, it was from Jiang Tian, someone she hadnât seen in a long time.
"Sweetie, why are you here?" Nianyangâs eyes were obviously filled with joy upon seeing the familiar figure of the girl. Even though she and Jiang Tian occasionally stayed in touch by phone, and Jiang Tian knew her address, she hadnât expected Jiang Tian to come looking for her.
