Ning Dao Covered with Snow

Chapter 358 There is no grass anywhere in the world

Everyone else would knock before entering Xiao Wang's room, but Mo Wenzhang wouldn't. Xiao Wang had reminded him many times, but he would only verbally agree and then continue to do as he pleased.

Xiao Wang brandished the razor blade in his hand, deliberately threatening, "Master, watch your words."

Master Mo was not afraid at all, and smiled with his hands on his hips: "What? Did I say something wrong?"

Xiao Wang put down the razor blade. He knew his master was unreliable, so he didn't bother to reason with him and asked directly.

"What do you want from me?"

"Naturally, it's for that young lady Aci. She's been unconscious for the past few days, and everyone is worried about her safety, so I didn't want to ask too much. Now that she's out of danger, we can finally sit down and have a proper talk. Liu Lang, tell me honestly, have you taken a fancy to her?"

Xiao Wang pursed his lips: "It's been many years. Master is still the same as before, liking to talk about random things. You still haven't told me how you ended up in the hands of the Five Gods Sect?"

Master Mo saw through his thoughts at a glance and laughed, "You're the same as before; once you feel guilty, you'll talk about other things."

"Master is joking. How could I have any guilty conscience?"

"If you have nothing to hide, why don't you answer my question directly? Are you in love with Miss Aci?"

Xiao Wang remained silent.

Master Mo put on a stern face and said irritably, "Silence is tantamount to admitting it. I'm not trying to criticize you, but you're already engaged to Second Sister Chao, so how did you get involved with Aci? What you're doing is very immoral. Even if I'm your master, I have to give you a good scolding!"

"I have already broken off the engagement with Chao Erniang."

Master Mo was taken aback, quite surprised: "When did this happen?"

"Shortly after meeting Aci."

Master Mo stared wide-eyed: "Could it be that you broke off your engagement with Chao Erniang because you met Aci and became fickle?"

Xiao Wang looked helpless: "You've misunderstood. It's not what you think."

To prevent Master Mo from continuing to overthink and causing more misunderstandings, Xiao Wang recounted his entire encounter with Yan Ciwan in Xiangzhou.

Master Mo was stunned. Even in traditional storytelling and opera, the plot was never this bizarre.

He exclaimed from the bottom of his heart, "Aci cured your poison, and you summoned her soul. It seems you are truly a match made in heaven."

Xiao Wang silently agreed with his master's statement.

After learning that his disciple's moral character was not problematic, Master Mo was relieved. He dragged a chair over and sat down in front of Xiao Wang, then stared at Xiao Wang's face for a long time, and said thoughtfully.

"Your ears are red and your eyes are sparkling with romance; you're clearly destined for love. Have you already confessed your feelings to Aci?"

Xiao Wang nodded.

Master Mo was taken aback, never expecting that his reserved disciple had already confessed his feelings. This was truly beyond his expectations.

With a heart full of gossip, he pressed on, "What happened? Did she accept you?"

Xiao Wang shook his head.

Mo Wenda, feeling disappointed, sighed, "You can't force matters of the heart. Since she's unwilling, we can only let it go. Liu Lang, don't be too sad. Being a bachelor isn't so bad. Look at me, I've been a bachelor for most of my life, and I'm still doing quite well."

After saying that, he grinned at his disciple, revealing eight snow-white teeth.

Xiao Wang accepted his master's kindness, but he felt that there was still a chance for him and Aci to salvage the relationship and avoid becoming an old bachelor like his master.

Master Mo slapped his thigh and suggested, "How about this, let's go for a drink. I'll get you drunk, and when you wake up, you'll have forgotten all your pain!"

Xiao Wang reminded him, "I can't drink alcohol."

"Hasn't the poison in your body already been neutralized?" "There are still two more transfers of power needed to completely neutralize the poison from the Fallen Immortal."

Master Mo had no choice but to give up, and said regretfully, "You're pitiful, you can't even drown your sorrows in alcohol. But don't be too sad, you're still young, maybe you'll meet a woman you like in the future. If all else fails, I'll help you find one."

Xiao Wang quickly declined, "No need, I'm fine as I am."

Master Mo thought he was still heartbroken and didn't want to get involved in another relationship yet, so he earnestly advised him: "Go out more often when you have time. Don't always stay at home. Seeing more of the world will brighten your mood a lot."

"I will, thank you for your concern, Master. Is there anything else, Master?"

Master Mo snorted, "Are you trying to get rid of me?"

"No, I was just asking casually."

Master Mo stood up: "I came here specifically to see you about your marriage. Now that everything is clear, I have a better understanding of the situation. I'll be leaving now."

Xiao Wang stopped him and asked.

"Master, do you have a way to cure dissociative identity disorder?"

Master Mo glanced at him and said meaningfully, "You want to cure Miss Aci's dissociation disorder?"

Xiao Wang readily nodded in agreement.

"Have you ever thought that if her dissociative identity disorder is cured, it means she will no longer need you, and she can get rid of you at any time?"

Xiao Wang had naturally considered this. He lowered his eyes slightly and said softly, "Every time she has an attack of her dissociative identity disorder, she becomes completely lifeless, as if she is no longer alive. I am really afraid that she might fall into a deep sleep one of these times and never wake up again."

"So you'd rather be dumped by her than not cure her illness?"

Xiao Wang said in a low voice, "I just hope she can live a good life, free from illness and disaster."

Master Mo shook his head and sighed, "Foolish child!"

Xiao Wang stood up, cupped his hands in a respectful bow, and said, "I hope Master will grant my request."

"Dissociation of the soul is not an ordinary disease. Although I have heard of it before, I have only ever seen one patient with dissociation of the soul, Aci. Please give me some time. I need to carefully search through the books to see if I can find a way to cure dissociation of the soul."

Xiao Wang bowed again: "Thank you, Master."

"I go first."

"This is for you, my disciple."

Even after leaving the room, Master Mo was still worried. He turned to his disciple and said, "There are plenty of fish in the sea. Why be hung up on just one? Don't be so upset."

Xiao Wang gave a helpless, bitter smile: "I understand."

After seeing his master off, Xiao Wang went to the study. He had loved reading since he was a child, and the content he read was all sorts of things, including medicinal cuisine.

He copied down all the prescriptions for invigorating qi and nourishing blood, and selected the one that was most suitable for Yan Ciwan.

He left Wei Rui Lou with the prescription in his pocket and went to the kitchen.

It wasn't mealtime, and the cooks were all resting. Only a few servants were preparing ingredients for dinner in the kitchen. When they saw Xiao Wang suddenly appear, they quickly put down their work and respectfully bowed to greet him.

Xiao Wang took out a medicinal diet recipe and asked them who knew how to make it.
The cooks rushed over upon hearing the news. Among them, the one most skilled at making medicinal cuisine was a cook in her early twenties. She took the recipe, looked at it, and nodded to indicate that she could make it.

The cook rolled up her sleeves and got to work, thinking that all she had to do was prepare the medicinal meal and deliver it to Xiao Wang. But little did she know that Xiao Wang had no intention of leaving at all.

He stayed in the kitchen the whole time, watching the cook prepare the medicinal cuisine. His focused expression made the cook feel incredibly pressured.
