“Patriarch Jiang, if you want to get over this matter, one spirit nurturing pill is not enough.”
“You must add something else!”
“Otherwise, hmph!”
His tone seemed unquestionable.
Although he did not finish his sentence, the meaning behind it was self-evident.
Chen Zhong’s heart sank when he heard this.
‘This person is taking things too far. The spirit nurturing pill is so precious, yet he felt that it wasn’t enough. He is clearly trying to take advantage of our Jiang family! Sigh, we do not have the strength to protect ourselves. It looks like our Jiang family is going to spend a lot of money today,’ Chen Zhong thought to himself.
Jiang Ping couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this.
He didn’t expect that Li Batian’s appetite would be so big.
He lowered his head and looked at Wan’er, who was holding his hand tightly.
Then, he let out a sigh.
He turned his head and said to Li Batian.
“Brother Li, we can discuss anything, but let’s go somewhere else.”
Li Batian was immediately delighted.
Sure enough, Jiang Ping didn’t dare to object at all.
But he still concealed it very well and didn’t reveal even a trace of his excitement.
He just nodded indifferently.
At the same time, his gaze paused on Jiang Wan’er.
Then, he said, “Follow me.”
Following that, he took the lead and walked out of the pavilion.
Jiang Ping turned his head and looked at Chen Zhong.
“Uncle Zhong, wait here with Wan’er.”
“Patriarch, why don’t we forget about it?”
Chen Zhong was clearly uneasy. He had a worried expression on his face.
However, Jiang Ping waved his hand gently and patted Wan’er’s head as he said softly.
“Wan’er, be good and wait for me here. I will be back soon.”
Wan’er didn’t know what her father wanted to do.
But it was really comfortable to be patted by her father in this manner.
Thus, Wan’er subconsciously nodded.
Jiang Ping smiled when he saw this and comforted Chen Zhong.
“Uncle Zhong, you can rest assured. Everything will be fine.”
After saying that, he let go of Wan’er’s small hand and followed Li Batian.
Chen Zhong felt uneasy.
He still nodded perfunctorily, but his face was filled with worry as his gaze fell on Jiang Ping’s departing figure.
…
Li Batian brought Jiang Ping to a remote and quiet house, which was surrounded by bamboos. There were almost no servants or maids passing by.
Looking at such an environment, Jiang Ping couldn’t help but feel happy.
‘Great, no one will know then,’ Jiang Ping thought.
Jiang Ping followed Li Batian into the house and closed the door behind him.
Li Batian turned around and sat down. He was about to ask Jiang Ping to sit down.
But when he looked up, he found that Jiang Ping had already sat down.
And he seemed like a different person.
But he couldn’t tell exactly what was different.
At this moment, Jiang Ping looked at Li Batian nonchalantly.
He said indifferently, “Say it. If the spirit nurturing pills aren’t enough, what else do you want?”
Li Batian was instantly stunned.
Jiang Ping’s current attitude was completely different from when he was outside.
He no longer appeared weak. Instead, he now had a dashing and casual attitude.
