Demon Lord and His Unknown Child With the Empress

Vol. 1 - Chapter 55 - The Wife Is in Charge of Money

Knock, knock, knock!

While everyone was having fun playing in the snow in the yard, knocking sounded from the door.

Qiang Se went to answer the door.

Standing outside the door, Qi Yuan was holding snacks in one hand. Just as she was about to raise her hand and wave, she noticed an unknown woman standing before her and was stunned for a moment. Huh? Did I get the wrong house?

“Sorry! I must have gotten the wrong house.” Qi Yuan smiled awkwardly and bowed slightly.

Qiang Se said nothing and simply nodded before closing the door.

When Qiang Se returned inside, Luo Ruying asked, “Who was it?”

“Madam, someone got the wrong house,” Qiang Se answered with a bow.

“Oh,” Luo Ruying responded without taking the matter to heart.

Outside the house, Qi Yuan left feeling puzzled. She carefully observed the residence and the surroundings and frowned. No! This is the right place!

During this time, she had come here almost every other day, so she could not have gotten it wrong!

Qi Yuan walked up and knocked to check.

“Allow me.” This time, Luo Ruying stopped Qiang Se and personally answered the door.

“Big Sister Luo,” Qi Yuan greeted with a smile when she saw Luo Ruying.

Sure enough, she knew it!

She often came here, so it was impossible for her to get the house wrong!

Even with her eyes closed, she could get here.

“Miss Qi, please come in,” Luo Ruying said with a smile.

She had guessed that it was Qi Yuan who had just come to the house. After all, Qiang Se did not know Qi Yuan.

Sure enough, it was Qi Yuan.

“In that case, I won't be shy.” Qi Yuan nodded and entered the house.

The moment they entered the compound, she saw Meng Niu, Qiang Se, and Bai Yuan and asked quizzically, “Big Sister Luo, who are they?”

“They are servants from my husband's family,” Luo Ruying explained.

Qi Yuan nodded genially to the three of them.

Ning Yechen came from a family of miracle doctors, so he must have an extraordinary background.

It was normal for him to have servants.

Unexpectedly, the three people were very good-looking.

The men were handsome, and the woman was pretty. Even among household staff, they were particularly good.

“Hi, Big Sister Qi!” Luo Hongye was sitting beside the stove in Ning Yechen’s arms. The moment she saw Qi Yuan, she greeted her politely.

Recently, Qi Yuan swung by regularly. Each time, she would come with all kinds of snacks, making Luo Hongye happy.

They were much closer now.

“Yeye.” The moment Qi Yuan saw Luo Hongye, a doting smile appeared on her face.

She rubbed Luo Hongye’s little face happily.

The baby fat on her face made her face feel tender and soft to the touch!

Looking at them, Meng Niu, Bai Yuan, and Qiang Se had faces full of envy.

How could Qi Yuan do this in front of them?

They really wanted to rub Luo Hongye's face as well!

“Here, these snacks are for you, Yeye.” Qi Yuan handed the snacks to Luo Hongye after rubbing her face.

It was almost like she was using the snacks as payment to rub Luo Hongye's face.

“Thank you, Big Sister Qi!” Luo Hongye excitedly took the bag containing snacks and started eating. She also handed some to Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying. “Daddy, Mommy, have some.”

“It’s okay. You can have it all, but don’t overeat,” Luo Ruying said lovingly with a bright smile.

Ning Yechen opened his mouth and let Luo Hongye feed him.

His daughter wanted to feed him, so how could he reject her?!

Absolutely not! \

When Qi Yuan saw the delight on Luo Hongye’s face, a satisfied smile appeared on her face. She got up and took a seat by the side.

Qiang Se quickly served a cup of tea.

“Thank you.”

After taking a sip of the tea, Qi Yuan brought up the reason for her visit. The reason for her visit had nearly slipped her mind when she got distracted by Luo Hongye’s adorableness.

Qi Yuan took out a low-level spatial ring and handed it to Ning Yechen. “Big Brother Ning, using your prescription for the Meridian Recovery Medicine, the family made some and put it up for sale in the family’s auction house. Here is 50% of the profits! From now on, the family will hand over 50% of the profits from its sale monthly.”

After Qi Yuan obtained the prescription from Ning Yechen, she had gone straight home and ordered people to study it.

She discovered that the prescription was a one-of-a-kind pill recipe that could gently nourish meridians!

Moreover, the herbs it required were not too rare, and it was also very easy to prepare with low rates of failure!

The Qi family had done a lot of research about pill refinement, but no one had come across anything quite as miraculous as this prescription!

Medicine that could gently nourish meridians was very popular among cultivators. The moment it was put on sale, cultivators were bound to go crazy over it!

The family had created a small amount of Meridian Recovery Medicine first and put it up for auction in their auction house.

In the end, each portion was sold at an astronomical price just as she had expected!

Countless cultivators heard about it and came to bid for it at the auction house.

The Qi family’s business, which had been going downhill, was revived thanks to the Meridian Recovery Medicine, and the place was swarming with people.

Just this prescription was enough to help resurrect the Qi family's business.

Qi Yuan was full of gratitude toward Ning Yechen and was determined to thank him.

She wanted to give Ning Yechen his share of the profits.

However, Ning Yechen did not lack spirit stones and declined, “It's fine. When I gave you the prescription, I didn’t expect anything in return.”

Qi Yuan said solemnly, “That won't do! My family already owes Big Sister Luo and you a lot. How could we take all the profit for the prescription? You have to take this.”

“Hmm… Fine. I'll accept it then.” Ning Yechen thought briefly and finally accepted the spirit stones.

He would just treat it as a business deal if it made the Qi family feel better.

Moreover, he could keep the spirit stones for future family expenses.

“Dear, please take care of the spirit stones.” Ning Yechen directly handed the spatial ring with spirit stones to Luo Ruying.

“For me?” Luo Ruying took the spatial ring, perplexed.

“Uh-huh. You are in charge of managing the family finances.” Ning Yechen smiled.

“Okay. If you need money, just let me know.” Luo Ruying took the spatial ring.

The feeling of taking charge of the family finances like a normal wife was a novel experience for her.

Qi Yuan watched the loving interaction between Luo Ruying and Ning Yechen, and a look of hesitation appeared in her eyes.

“What's wrong, Miss Qi?” Ning Yechen asked.

Qi Yuan went quiet briefly before saying, “Big Sister Luo, the match is tomorrow. I heard the Jiang family found a cultivator at the Human Immortal realm! If anything goes wrong, you must immediately admit defeat!”

Even though Qi Yuan wanted the Qi family to win, she did not wish to see Luo Ruying get hurt.

If the Qi family lost the bet, they just had to leave Nanli City.

Ning Yechen and Luo Ruying smiled upon hearing this.

They had thought Qi Yuan was worried about something major.

“Miss Qi, you have nothing to worry about! If the opponent is only at the Human Immortal realm, I should be able to handle him,” Luo Ruying said confidently.

Even if the opponent was at the Divine Being realm, she was unafraid, let alone someone at the Human Immortal realm!
