Murong Xue nodded in agreement, "Well then, I will check it later today. Gu Ming, please rent a warehouse nearby for me to put the herbs, and the Medical Department will go there to take materials. Also, the Medical Department needs to make the list of herbs needed the next day and text it to me, which I will prepare for them."

Gu Ming was confused, "Xue, you mean we don't need to buy in herbs? You can ask the purchasing department to do it instead of bothering yourself."

Murong Xue wanted to make full use of herbs in the Space, but she could not tell them the truth. "I have my plan. I know some herb providers, so you don't need to purchase."

Gu Ming understood that everything Murong Xue did had its purpose. "Okay, I'll get it done today."

"That's all for today. You guys can go now. Ziwen, I'm going home now. Will you join me? We can meet Zilin." Murong Xue asked Mo Ziwen next to her.

Mo Ziwen agreed, "Sure, let's go."

When they came back to the Murong Family's house, Zhang Keren could not stop complaining about Murong Xue for leaving for such a long time. She also complained that Murong Xue, as her daughter, was not even as caring as Mo Ziwen.

Looking at the two getting along with each other, Murong Xue rolled her eyes. Escaping from the weird scene where Mo Ziwen smiled patiently with her mother's nagging, Murong Xue went to Mo Zilin's room.

"Zilin, do you miss me?" asked Murong Xue happily.

Busy at the computer desk, Mo Zilin turned his head and exclaimed in surprise, "Miss Xue, you're back!" He rushed over and hugged the beautiful sister he had been missing.

"Ha-ha, Zilin, let me have a look at you." Murong Xue held up him.

Murong Xue observed carefully. She found Mo Zilin had a rosy face now and his body grew stronger. She felt his pulse and it was steadily strong, which indicated his good health. Murong Xue breathed a sigh of relief.

Mo Zilin was very obedient when Murong Xue was checking on him. He could not be more grateful to Murong Xue, who made him become normal. Now, he was able to jump, laugh, and behave like ordinary people. He cherished everything he had now, and he always remembered who gave him a new life.

On the other hand, in the No.1 Hospital in the capital, Zhang Linli asked his father for a one-month leave.

Zhang Wenming looked straight into Zhang Linli's eyes and surveyed him from head to toes. "What are you going to do?" He knew his son had been very reluctant to leave his work there, so he felt it was so out of the blue when Zhang Linli wanted to leave for a month.

Seeing his father's look, Zhang Linli felt as if he had done something weird, which made him very uneasy. "I'm going to learn Chinese acupuncture and moxibustion from my tutor."

It sounded reasonable to Zhang Wenming now as he knew his son was willing to do it, but he also felt confused. "When do you have a tutor? Why don't you tell me? You want to learn from someone? Who is this capable man?"

Zhang Linli raised a coy smile, "You know my tutor. You've two have met before."

Zhang Wenming looked utterly bewildered, "Oh? Someone I know? Professor Hao? No, you are better than him. Professor Liu? No... Tell me, which professor is your tutor?"

Zhang Linli answered with a mischievous smile, "Ha-ha, it's Xue."

Zhang Wenming was so surprised that he choked on his tea and spouted his drink out directly to his son. He pointed at Zhang Linli, "Who are you talking about…?"

Zhang Linli did not expect his father to react like this, so he had no time to back away and the tea was all over his face now. He pulled a tissue out of the box on the desk and rolled his eyes at Zhang Wenming. "Dear father, you've heard me. My tutor is Murong Xue, and you've met her that day."

Zhang Wenming had wanted to make a detailed inquiry, but then he thought of something. Raising a knowing smile, he answered, "Oh, I understand! Go ahead. I'll extend your leave. Don't worry. Ha-ha, I'll be a grandfather soon."

Zhang Lin was unable to understand the connection between learning medicine and his father being a grandfather. Zhang Linli thought to himself that maybe his father was dying to have a grandchild. He only took it as his father being ridiculous since his leave was permitted now.

Standing in the airport, Zhang Linli raised a bright smile at the ticket in his hands, which dazzled people passing by.

"Xue, I will see you soon." Zhang Linli thought to himself.

Murong Xue was caught by surprise when she saw Zhang Linli standing in front of her. She thought she was mistaken, but she still could see him after rubbing her eyes.

Murong Xue could feel the twitch in her face. She knew Zhang Linli was dedicated to medicine, but she was surprised that he would come to A province to learn from her. She was a little speechless, "Linli, you, you..."

Zhang Linli opened his arms and gave her a big hug, and there was a bright glowing smile on his face. "Ha-ha, Xue, are you too happy to say anything?"

Murong Xue was speechless and wondered how he saw her non-existent merriment. "Why are you here?"

He let go of his hands and said earnestly, "I told you. Don't think you can come back to A province to get rid of me."

Murong Xue rolled her eyes. "Okay, okay. I know you could devote your life to medicine. How long are you going to stay here?"

Zhang Linli grinned and pointed a finger at her. "One month. You have to be my good host."

Having a glance at the luggage behind him, Murong Xue became more desperate. "Go and settle down first."

Zhang Linli answered with a shrug and followed Murong Xue's steps with his suitcase. "Xue, where do you live?" He looked at her. Although it had been several days since the last time they met, he knew his heart was racing when he saw her. Zhang Linli sensed he could not get enough of her.

Murong Xue turned around and looked into his bright eyes. "Of course, my apartment. How about you? Do you want to stay in a hotel?"

While they were talking, Murong Xue's hair kept rubbing her face, by which Zhang Linli was carried away. He reached out a hand to brush the hair away from her face, but Murong Xue acted more quickly. With his hand stopping dead in midair, Zhang Linli froze for a while, and then he pretended to hit flies although there was none. "Xue, I have to stay in a place near your home. Otherwise, it would be very inconvenient for me to learn from you." He would never confess he was doing this for himself, and he kept convincing himself that he was doing this only for learning medicine.

However, Murong Xue could not think of any hotel nearby to enable him to be closer to her house. She began to regret that she had promised him. "There is no grand hotel near my home."

"Well, how about buying an apartment nearby?" Zhang Linli talked as if buying a house had been a piece of cake.

Murong Xue felt helpless about this man's luxurious style, buying an apartment in A province for a one-month stay. "It's up to you. Get in the car. Let's go there and see if there is any. Maybe they are all sold out."

Zhang Linli put the luggage into the trunk, took the key from her hands, and walked to the driver's seat. "A gentleman won't let a lady drive."

Murong Xue did not refuse him and got into the car. They arrived where she lived very quickly, only to find that all the apartments were sold.

Murong Xue led Zhang Linli into her apartment with a poker face. There were five rooms in her big apartment, and Zhang Linli would only stay there for a month. Therefore, she took him home at last. "Zilin, there are four guest rooms, and you can pick anyone you want. But the master room is mine. You can't cross the line."

This place was filled with Murong Xue's smell, which made Zhang Linli very excited. Thinking of their intimacy now, he could feel his heart was beating fast. "Sure, I get it. Don't worry. I will not cause you any trouble." Zhang Linli vowed solemnly.

Murong Xue did not tell Zhang Linli that he had already caused her trouble by showing up there. "You have traveled all day, Have a rest first."

Zhang Linli did not feel tired at all and seeing her greatly lifted his spirits. However, he captured a hint of exhaustion in Murong Xue's face, so he nodded. "Okay. You, too."

Murong Xue was indeed really tired as she had a very tight schedule recently. Yesterday, she treated the wounded veterans, who could fully recover from gunshot wounds with good rest after her acupuncture and moxibustion.

Besides, the company of skincare products she started together with Mo Aili was named AX, the letters from their names, which symbolized their partnership. Mo Aili was hard-working and was busy going through the procedures of their company, and her own investment think-tank had provided much useful advice. Murong Xue could see Mo Aili grew mature within only a few days.

Feeling the necessity of making her own contributions, Murong Xue kept adjusting the manufacturing process of their products, making arrangements about their workshops, and checking the herbs. She had bought another large amount of herb to grow in the Space as now Rise Group and the new company both demanded materials. It was a blessing that she had the Space where she could harvest herbs within one day, guaranteeing the supply.

Lizi Pavilion had not yet given her their answer, but she was not going to rush things. It was normal that they needed more time as their leader was not in A province now.

On the other hand, Shangguan Mo finally got things done in Country C and headed home happily. During the trip, he kept checking the message he received before and even giggled.

From the corner of his eye, Ye Feng saw his Prince turned into a giggling man, and he felt aggrieved. He had wanted to ask for a leave to date some girls before when he found Shangguan Mo seemed less intimidating, but soon the Prince became very gloomy and asked him to finish the awaiting pile of work first.

Ye Feng was filled with indignation because he knew he would never be able to get married if he had to finish his endless work first. He realized his life could be a tragedy.

While his unsympathetic Prince stared at Murong Xue's text with giggling, Ye Feng despised him inside and wished they would fall pretty hard for each other. After cursing many times deep inside, Ye Feng finally restored his calmness.

Zhang Linli was filled with pleasure recently as the one he liked was around him.

He was only amazed at her acupuncture and moxibustion at first, but then things were beyond his imagination. With increasing discussions, he was impressed by her profound knowledge and in-depth understanding of medicine, for which he really looked up to her. Now, Zhang Linli took a notebook with him in case he wanted to take down inspirations Murong Xue gave him.

Murong Xue was overwhelmed with work and almost had no time for rest. Apart from the company, she had to participate in some international contests among universities and she was asked to take training sessions on the campus every day as the contest was a matter of honor among the countries. After the training session, she would discuss medicine with Zhang Lin when she returned to her apartment. She was also inspired by their conversation, and she could not help admiring what he had accomplished.

Shangguan Mo came back to the capital with great merriment, only to find Murong Xue was gone.

In Bai Xueli's manor, she had already recovered and left the hospital. Bai Xueli knew Shangguan Mo would come back today, so she got up very early to dress herself up.

With a simple yet elegant make-up, Bai Xueli was wearing a white hand-made dress from Country G. All of her clothes were white because she remembered something Shangguan Mo had said before. Although Shangguan Mo perhaps had forgotten about it, she bore it in mind all the time. Gradually, white became her favorite.

Shangguan Mo called Murong Xue as soon as his plane landed, but no one answered.

He felt strange and went to his villa. When he found it was not inhabited and Murong Xue's things were gone, he made another call. "Where is Miss Murong?"

"She came back to A province." The one on the other end of the phone would like to tell Shangguan Mo that Zhang Linli was also there now, but he gave up the idea as he knew they were best friends since childhood and he assumed that Shangguan Mo had known about it.

Shangguan Mo felt empty now. He knew it was because he wanted to see Murong Xue now the moment he was back. However, he had to stay in the capital for work now, and he would go to A province later. Thinking of this, he pulled himself together despite his reluctance. Shangguan Mo started working immediately as getting work done as soon as possible was the way for him to see her. He was missing her. He missed her.

Bai Xueli had waited in her manor for a long time, sitting up and down and walking back and forth repeatedly. She checked the time and she knew Shangguan Mo should have arrived by now. She wondered why he had not come over yet.
