Rakish Little Immortal Doctor

“Your mom??”

Upon learning this, Li Qianfan’s face instantly betrayed an unmistakable shock, and his gaze quickly refocused on the woman standing behind Yu Xian.

She’s way too young!

The woman appeared to be only five or six years older than Yu Xian, and he hadn’t expected the two to be mother and daughter.

“Hey, Qianfan, it’s very rude to keep staring at my mom like that.”

Seeing Li Qianfan staring at her mother like a love-struck fool, Yu Xian couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

This remark snapped Li Qianfan back to reality. Seeing that Yu Xian looked displeased, he knew he had been impolite. He immediately turned to Yu Xian’s mom and said awkwardly, “Auntie, I’m really sorry for staring. I didn’t mean to; it’s just that you look so young, almost like someone in their thirties.”

“Giggle… no worries.”

Mu Yuhe waved her hand generously. When Li Qianfan had been staring at her, she felt not an ounce of repulsion. Instead, she was quite delighted inside.

After all, she was already forty-five years old, yet she could still captivate a young and handsome man like Li Qianfan, proof that her charm hadn’t waned over the years. Most importantly, she had heard from her daughter that Li Qianfan was a cultivator. In this day and age, a cultivator was a one-in-a-million genius.

“Mom, this is Li Qianfan I told you about. He can help me unlock this piece of wood.”

In fact, Yu Xian wasn’t truly angry. Once the misunderstanding was cleared, she promptly moved on to the main topic.

After Mu Yuhe nodded gently, her gaze locked onto the Flame Wood, and she couldn’t help but feel emotional, saying, “Our Yu Family has had this piece of wood for so many years, and finally we have the opportunity to craft it into a wooden stake. If your grandfather and father knew about this from the heavens, they would surely be very happy.”

“Yes, their long-standing wish was to craft the world’s toughest wooden stake from this piece of wood and then take it to compete, to show everyone that our Yu Family’s Wooden Stake Forging Art is the strongest,” Yu Xian said earnestly, clenching her fists.

Listening to the mother and daughter’s conversation, Li Qianfan gradually came to understand something. It turned out that Yu Xian wanted to create the world’s most durable wooden stake to fulfill her grandfather and father’s ambition, to compete and prove the strength of the Yu Family.

“Qianfan, is the wood unsealed now?”

Suddenly remembering something, Yu Xian immediately turned her head to Li Qianfan.

“It’s already unsealed,” Li Qianfan nodded lightly. The ‘power’ Yu Xian spoke of was merely the Power of the Solar Terms, and Li Qianfan had already extracted it, so the Flame Wood naturally lost that extraordinary power.

“That’s great!”

Excitement surged across Yu Xian’s face, and she said eagerly, “In that case, I can start working on the wooden stake.”

Li Qianfan’s expression turned serious as he said, “Xianxian, I suggest you first try using tools. If there is any problem, we can deal with it promptly.”

This piece of advice reminded Yu Xian, and she nodded, replying, “You’re right. If a problem arises after you leave, it would be trouble to ask you to come over again. I’ll go get the tools… Oh right, can you help me move them?”

“Sure thing!”

Li Qianfan agreed immediately, following Yu Xian out of the office.

“Don’t they make a good match? But I wonder if Xiao Fan already has a girlfriend,” Mu Yuhe mused with a faint smile on her face as she watched the two leave.

Though Yu Xian was excellent in many ways, not only pretty but also holding a high-paying job, she encountered significant issues in her love life. Soon to be thirty, she still didn’t have a steady partner.

Once a woman crosses thirty, she becomes less coveted in the chaotic dating market, so these past two years, Mu Yuhe had been quite anxious, constantly introducing potential matches to Yu Xian.

However, every time a blind date was arranged, Yu Xian would find various excuses to get out of it, making it difficult for any man to catch her eye.

But, while interacting with Li Qianfan, there seemed to be a difference. Toward him, she became gentler than before. Stay updated through My Virtual Library Empire

“Although Xiao Fan is young, he’s really capable and handsome, too; Xianxian will surely take a liking to Qianfan.”

Mu Yuhe planned to matchmake these two young people and felt excited at the thought of her future son-in-law being a cultivator.

Why not invite Xiao Fan over for dinner tonight?

She could use this opportunity to inquire about Li Qianfan’s family background.

Once she had made up her mind, Mu Yuhe didn’t hesitate and immediately prepared to leave to make dinner. However, before she left, she noticed the bottle on the coffee table. When she saw the grass inside the bottle, a smile appeared on her face, “Xianxian got another herb from out of town. Just perfect for cooking dinner tonight, and I can let Qianfan taste my culinary skills.”

After placing the bottle containing the Power of the Solar Terms grass into her handbag, Mu Yuhe was ready to leave.

Just as she walked out the door, she bumped into Yu Xian and Li Qianfan, who were holding a toolbox.

Yu Xian looked at Mu Yuhe in surprise and asked, “Mom, are you leaving now?”

Mu Yuhe nodded, “Yes, I’m going back to prepare dinner. When you and Xiao Fan are finished with your work, come home to eat, okay?”

“Mom, we don’t even know when we’ll be done. You should eat first!”

Yu Xian completely misunderstood Mu Yuhe’s intention and replied.

Mu Yuhe frowned slightly and pinched Yu Xian’s delicate nose affectionately, “My silly girl, Qianfan has helped you so much, shouldn’t we thank him properly? I’m going to cook now, and at seven tonight, come home for dinner, got it?”

“Auntie, I’ve already had lunch with Xian Jie at noon.”

Li Qianfan stepped forward and said.

“That was just a quick meal. Tonight, let me treat you properly and cook some of my best dishes.”

Mu Yuhe stared at Li Qianfan, growing more fond of this prospective son-in-law by the minute.

Li Qianfan didn’t rush to answer but sneakily glanced at Yu Xian, since he had no plans for the evening, but he didn’t know if Yu Xian would be willing to go.

Seeing both of their gazes settle on her, Yu Xian didn’t say much but simply nodded and said, “Alright, then Xiao Fan and I will come over tonight. We definitely can’t forge the Flame Wood stakes today because we need to prepare for some time. After all, we only have one piece of wood, and we can’t afford any mistakes.”

“That’s the spirit. Forging Flame Wood stakes isn’t something to rush, and you’ve been waiting for so many years; a few more days won’t hurt.”

After saying this, Mu Yuhe’s gaze returned to Li Qianfan, and she asked with a smile, “Qianfan, do you have any dietary restrictions?”

Li Qianfan shook his head, “Auntie, I don’t have any. I can eat anything.”

“Great!”

Mu Yuhe was delighted and nodded, then left with her handbag.

Li Qianfan’s gaze followed Mu Yuhe as she walked away, and he couldn’t help but let his thoughts wander as he watched her swaying willow waist and pert derrière. A woman in her forties maintaining such a figure and skin was genuinely astonishing.

Moreover, a woman of Mu Yuhe’s age exuded a mature charm that was even more enchanting than that of a young girl like Yu Xian.

If he could have something happen with such a mature woman, it would undoubtedly be blissful.

“Li Qianfan, do you find my mom’s back attractive?”

Seeing Li Qianfan spacing out again, Yu Xian asked with narrowed eyes.

“Attractive, big and round!”

Li Qianfan replied subconsciously.
