After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

Inside the room, Lu Ruo asked somewhat nervously, "Can it be cured?"

Jiang Xiao's face was solemn, making Lu Ruo's heart pound with anxiety.

"It can be cured!" Jiang said with a smile. "However, I still have some questions. I need to write to my master first. Can you wait for me?"

Lu Ruo breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was good that she could be cured.

He nodded slightly.

As long as it can be cured, it doesn't matter how long it takes.

Jiang Xiao immediately ground ink and wrote a letter to his master, who was far away in the capital.

It was ten days later when I received a reply.

After Jiang Xiao's doubts about the medicinal herbs were resolved, she immediately began to treat Lu Ruo.

Completely eradicating the alluring fragrance is not something that can be done overnight.

To achieve delicate skin that doesn't cling to clothing, one must be given this medicine from a young age to transform their body.

Since escaping the Flower Dance Party, Lu Ruo has consulted many famous doctors. Although there is a medicinal bath that can restrain the effects, it cannot neutralize the effects of the alluring fragrance.

During this time, they rented a small courtyard in the city, and Jiang Xiao planned to spend six months treating Lu Ruo.

Lu Ruo knew that the alluring fragrance was difficult to cure, and felt very bad that she had delayed Little Fairy Doctor's travels in the world.

Jiang Xiao, on the other hand, was always cheerful and even had the interest to flirt with Huang Quan Da Xia.

During this time, Lin Beizhen returned to Wuling County.

Lan Shu was drinking tea in the courtyard when she saw her son return home looking travel-worn.

"Where did you wander around to? You seem to have lost all your energy." Lan Shu instructed the servant beside her, "Go tell the kitchen to prepare more nourishing soups tonight."

After the servants left, Lin Beizhen still stood in front of his stepfather.

Lan Shu said, "Hurry back to your room and wash up. Don't be like your stinky old man who doesn't bathe for ten days or half a month."

Lin Si, who happened to be walking out of the room, thought to himself: "..."

Lin Si explained to her husband in a serious tone, "My dear, I only didn't have time to shower when I was on military campaigns. I shower every day at home."

Lan Shu pretended not to hear and said to her son, "Aren't you going yet?"

Lin Beizhen silently went to the bathroom to wash up.

He rode back on a fast horse. The journey from Qingzhu County near Heishuiyao to Wuling County was not short, and he was in a hurry, so he looked very disheveled.

With a little grooming, he's a dashing young man again.

At the dinner table that evening, Lanshu served soup to her son.

"Did you gain anything from this trip?" Lan Shu asked.

Lin Beizhen thought about it carefully, then nodded.

Lan Shu then asked, "Have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"

Lin Beizhen shook his head.

Lan Shu had grown accustomed to her son's dull personality, but she sighed inwardly, thinking that with such a clumsy tongue, he would surely never be able to find a husband for her son.

Lin Beizhen hesitated for a long time before slowly speaking.

"Little father, there's something I don't understand."

Lan Shu: "You speak."

Lin Beizhen carefully considered his words before asking, "What are your thoughts on my marriage?"

Lan Shu was somewhat bewildered by her son's question. "Why do you need my opinion on your marriage? It's not like I'm the one choosing a husband."

"..."

Seeing his son's conflicted expression, even someone as intelligent as Lan Shu found it difficult to guess what he was thinking.

"Xiao Bei, speak your mind," Lin Si said.

Lin Beizhen then asked, "I wonder which family was engaged to me before?"

Lin Si and Lan Shu exchanged a glance.

"What?" Lan Shu was even more bewildered now. "When did you get engaged? How come I didn't know?"

Lin Beizhen said, "You said it yourself. I was betrothed to someone when I was a child."

Lin Si looked at her husband and asked, "Is that so?"

Clearly, this was the first time he had ever heard of it either.

"...Really?" Lan Shu thought carefully for a moment, "Oh, I remember now!"

He suddenly realized and said, "When you were studying at the academy, matchmakers always came to propose marriage. I was so annoyed that I told them you were betrothed since childhood so they could go back home."

At this point, Lan Shu felt quite guilty, never expecting that a casual lie she told would be remembered by her son for so many years.

Lin Beizhen asked, "So... I'm not engaged?"

"..." Lan Shu felt guilty, ashamed of his son. He nodded heavily and with remorse.

To everyone's surprise, Lin Beizhen smiled slightly after hearing this. "Really?"

"My son, if you're in a hurry to get married, your father will go and find you a handsome young man just like me."

Lin Beizhen himself didn't realize that he felt relaxed at that moment. In fact, one could even say he was somewhat elated.

"I have my own plans regarding marriage, so you don't need to worry, Father," Lin Beizhen said. "I've finished eating, Father, Father, please enjoy your meal."

Lan Shu tugged at her husband's sleeve. "Do you think our son is possessed? I felt like he was laughing just now."

Lin Si gently pinched her husband's cheek. "How can we treat our son's marriage so lightly?"

Lan Shu glared at him. "Are you here to settle scores with me?"

Lin Si kissed her husband, "How could that be? It's just that you handled this matter very poorly, my little darling. You know, our son has always listened to you the most since he was a child."

"You said you had arranged a marriage for him, and he naturally believed you."

"If he hadn't spoken up today, he might have lived a lonely life, and we would never have known why."

Lan Shu was even angrier, "I already feel so guilty, and you're still blaming me!"

"I was wrong, I was wrong," Lin Si said. "It's my fault. My son was acting so strangely, and I didn't even notice."

Lan Shu hummed softly, then, as if remembering something, said, "Wait a minute."

"Um?"

Lan Shu said, "Given Xiao Bei's personality, even if you beat him up, he might not say a word."

"But today he brought it up himself, and when he learned that he was not engaged, he actually laughed."

"Could it be... that he has someone he likes?"

Lin Si thought about it and also felt that what her husband said made a lot of sense.

"That should be the case."

Lan Shu immediately became curious, "I wonder what kind of guy could have our Xiao Bei so captivated that he's even changed his personality."

Lin Si said, "Perhaps someone I met during this training trip?"

"It should be right," Lan Shu said. "It seems our family is about to have a new member; I'm going to have a son-in-law."

Lin Si thought that things were still far from certain, so he should ask for clarification first.

Before he could even speak, his husband had already started talking to himself.

"But I don't know how to propose to the young man, what I should prepare?"

"Do we need to have our birth dates and times matched first?"

"Shouldn't we renovate our house too?"

Lin Si called out helplessly, "Little Darling."

Lan Shu ignored him, saying, "It really needs some repairs. And Xiao Bei's yard is so bare, there aren't even any flowers or plants. It's so ugly."

"Little darling."

"I'll go find a craftsman tomorrow... um."

Lin Si wrapped her arms around her husband's waist, pulled him into her embrace, and kissed his chattering red lips.
