Chapter 46 Su Qing Returns to the Su Family

Lin Xiaoran suddenly snapped back to reality. She looked at Shen Baisu with a questioning look in her eyes.

Shen Baisu: "Your aptitude is quite good, so, would you like to cultivate immortality together? If you're willing, I can recommend a master to you."

Lin Xiaoran: ?

Hmm? Master?

So they've already made contact with other members of that organization?

Lin Xiaoran agreed to Shen Baisu's suggestion. She had already planned to contact people in the organization to explore methods for stimulating tree growth. Now that Shen Baisu had presented her with the opportunity, Lin Xiaoran naturally had no reason to refuse.

So she nodded vigorously at Shen Baisu.

Shen Baisu said, "Okay, I'll ask her later. If she agrees to take you as her apprentice, I'll arrange for you two to meet."

Lin Xiaoran nodded again, "Thank you, thank you for your trouble."

Shen Baisu: "Don't rush to thank her, I'm not sure if she'll agree yet."

"If she doesn't agree, you'll have to learn it yourself."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoran's head immediately showed a question mark.

Is it possible to learn it on your own?

Shen Baisu had promised Lin Xiaoran she would ask for her, so when she returned to the old house, she asked Su Qing.

"Senior sister, do you remember my senior sister who grows the Red Beauty Fruit tree? Her name is Lin Xiaoran."

"I remember." Su Qing nodded at her. "What happened to her?"

Shen Baisu: "Didn't I go to have dinner with her today? I also tested her spiritual root while I was there. She has a wood spiritual root, grade nine."

"It's actually a wood spirit root, and a ninth-grade one at that." Su Qing was quite surprised.

Shen Baisu nodded, then looked at Su Qing and said, "After using the Marrow Cleansing Pill, she might become a top-grade wood spirit root. Would you consider taking her as your disciple?"

After listening, Su Qing clicked her tongue inwardly, "Me, accept it?"

"She's clearly closer to you, isn't she? Why don't you take her on as your apprentice?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Baisu smiled at her and said, "You know I never take on disciples."

"Didn't you already take on a disciple before? Taking on one is the same as taking on two, so why don't you take on another one?"

Su Qing rolled her eyes at her, but didn't refuse outright. Instead, she said, "I'll think about it."

“Talent is important, but character is even more important. I need to observe her first.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Baisu immediately nodded in agreement, "Of course."

Su Qing stopped talking about Lin Xiaoran and instead told Shen Baisu something else: "Today I received a call from a member of the Su family. The person claimed to be the Su family's butler and asked me to come back to discuss the distribution of the property. He told me I must go back tomorrow."

Shen Baisu: ?

"Huh? When?"

Tomorrow is Monday, and she has classes in the morning. If Su Qing goes back in the morning, she won't be able to go to the Su family with her.

Shen Baisu was really worried about letting Su Qing go back alone.

Although she had helped Su Qing learn about the world these days, she was still worried, especially since Su Qing was currently a mental patient.

Su Qing: "I didn't say a specific time. I just promised to go back tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Shen Baisu immediately said to her, "Then we'll go back this afternoon. I'll go with you after I finish my morning classes."

If they were still in the cultivation world, Shen Baisu believed that Su Qing could handle these kinds of mundane family matters on her own.

But this wasn't the cultivation continent after all, and she wasn't at ease.

Moreover, Su Qing probably doesn't know anything about the distribution of wealth in this world, so she should definitely go along.

She not only has to go with them, but she also has to bring a lawyer with her.

Not knowing Shen Baisu's plans, Su Qing first asked her, "Are you free this afternoon? If you're busy, I can go by myself."

Shen Baisu immediately shook her head, "It's okay." As she spoke, she hugged Su Qing's arm and gently shook it, "Let me go with you."

Seeing this, Su Qing had no objection. She nodded repeatedly, "Alright, alright, let's go to the Su family together this afternoon." "Originally, I wasn't a real daughter of the Su family. When they were dividing the property, I shouldn't have a share. But after thinking about it carefully, if I don't go, wouldn't that benefit my so-called sister? After thinking it over, I decided to go back."

Of course, aside from not wanting to let her older sister benefit from it, she felt it was good to make some money; she couldn't really let her junior sister support her forever.

**
The next day, after finishing her morning classes, Shen Baisu went to the Su family home with Su Qing. In addition to the driver who took them there, Shen Baisu also borrowed a lawyer from the old lady.

The Su family has been running a medicinal herb shop since the time of Old Master Su. Over time, the number of medicinal herb shops under the Su family name has become countless.

Grandpa Su had only one son, but more than ten years ago, his son and daughter-in-law died in a car accident, leaving behind two daughters for him.

Having experienced the pain of losing his son, a parent outliving their child, the old man almost couldn't pull through, but because of his two granddaughters, he finally gritted his teeth and persevered.

She raised her two granddaughters as her successors and wanted to choose one of them as her heir.

The original Su Qing was gentle and timid, but extremely intelligent, with exceptional comprehension and learning abilities in both medicine and pharmacy.

Su Qing's older sister, Su Yan, does not have the same understanding and learning ability in medicine as Su Qing, but she is strong-willed and extremely ambitious, and has wanted to become the head of the Su family since she was a child.

But things didn't go as planned; the old man was more satisfied with Su Qing.

After discovering that the old man intended to hand over the future of the Su family to Su Qing, Su Yan broke down and began to use tricks against her younger sister, Su Qing.

First, she stole Su Qing's boyfriend, and then she drove Su Qing to the brink of insanity.

On the day that the Eternal Love Sovereign of the Wuji Sect came to this world, the original owner of this body, Su Qing, left this world forever.

On her deathbed, she felt no hatred towards Su Yan, but instead felt a deep sense of guilt.

She felt that it was because of her that Su Yan couldn't become the head of the Su family. As long as she died, Su Yan could get her wish and would become the loving and caring older sister she used to be...

Because she had arrived at a place familiar to the original owner, Su Qing remembered many memories she hadn't recalled before. This place held too many happy memories for the original owner, as well as countless sad ones.

All of the original owner's suffering stemmed from her older sister, Su Yan.

When Su Qing saw the Su family's gate, countless emotions surged within her, the churning feelings almost overwhelming her.

Su Qing pressed her hand to her chest and muttered, "So stupid."

Shen Baisu turned her head to look at her, "What?"

Su Qing: "I say, Su Qing was really stupid before. Even on her deathbed, she still felt that she owed her sister. Clearly, all her tragedies were caused by her sister."

Shen Baisu listened but did not offer any opinion.

Su Qing and Su Yan are biological sisters who grew up together. It is true that Su Yan hurt Su Qing, but it is also true that she has always loved and protected her since childhood.

These things can't be calculated.

As they stepped into the Su family's gate, Su Qing silently took Shen Baisu's hand. "Her emotions were too overwhelming; I couldn't handle it."

Shen Baisu helped her steady herself and led her inside.

"Second Miss, you're finally back!"

"You'd better go upstairs quickly, the old man is dying!"

As the two sisters entered the Su family's living room, an elderly man in a long gown hurriedly came forward and urged Su Qing to go upstairs to see the old man.

Upon hearing the housekeeper's words, Su Qing's eyes widened in surprise. "It's not working? How could it be not working? Wasn't it perfectly fine just a short while ago?"

Su Qing asked the question as she quickly went upstairs.

The butler followed closely beside Su Qing, saying, "It's been a long time. I've been thinking of you constantly. If I hadn't missed seeing you one last time, I'm afraid I would have passed away long ago."

After hearing the housekeeper's words, Su Qing felt a sharp pain in her chest, as if the pain was suffocating her.

Su Qing frowned slightly, took a deep breath, and tried to suppress the surging emotions in her heart.

"Su Qing! You still know how to come back?"

"Why didn't you wait until your grandfather died before coming back?!"

As soon as Su Qing entered the old man's room, a middle-aged woman walked aggressively towards her. She raised her hand and slapped Su Qing across the face.
