Xu Chuchu looked shell-shocked. If Jiang Ming had not looked carefully, he would have felt that she had aged decades.

He suddenly felt that Xu Chuchu was quite pitiful.

She just wanted to improve her condition, but she was about to die.

He also roughly understood that this spell would probably have a certain backlash. Otherwise, Xu Chuchu would not have said so.

“Forget it, I’ll be a good person today.”

Jiang Ming hammered his thigh and looked at Xu Chuchu.

Xu Chuchu roughly understood what he meant. She could not help but feel a little touched. “We’ve only known each other for a day. I even did such a cruel thing to you. Yet, you’re willing to let bygones be bygones and save me. But what about the others? They all want my life, no matter how much I love them.”

“Why are you suddenly feeling sentimental?”

Jiang Ming did not know whether to laugh or cry. He said as he detoxified Xu Chuchu, “These things happen all the time. Why do you have to care about these things? What should be in the past will be in the past. As long as you’re happy, it’s fine.”

Xu Chuchu nodded seriously and then said, “Jiu Zhu, where are you from? Are you willing to come to my attic for a chat later? I have many secret treasures in my attic. When the time comes, you can choose one. As for the Yellow Gall Grass, I will also bring it to you. You don’t have to be forced to marry the eldest daughter of this village. She has a hot temper. You won’t be able to stand her.”

She seemed to be thinking about something.

She saw clearly that Jiang Ming was a good person. If possible, she hoped to become good friends with him.

In life, what one always lacked was a true friend.

It was her great fortune to be able to meet this person now.

Jiang Ming could see Xu Chuchu’s sincerity, but he was a little uncertain. He pondered and said, “How do I know if what you said is true or not? I’ve been scammed by many people before.”

Although he said that, he did not stop treating Xu Chuchu.

After a while, the poison in Xu Chuchu’s body was completely removed.

She had fully recovered, and her entire person was radiant again.

She even felt that she had become another person. Her entire body was filled with energy, and she could practice spells even more powerfully.

She was almost crying tears of joy. She said to Jiang Ming, “Jiu Zhu, thank you so much. As for whether you want to believe my words or not, that’s your business. But no matter what you want, I can give it to you. This is my repayment to you.”

Jiang Ming nodded and looked around. “The most important thing now is to remove this spell. No matter what, even if I don’t get the Yellow Gall Grass, at least I have to attend this wedding first. The eldest miss of this village is looking forward to this wedding. I don’t want to let her down.”

Jiang Ming looked at Xu Chuchu seriously.

She was stunned for a moment and could not help but look into Jiang Ming’s eyes.

Only then did she feel that his eyes seemed to have stars in them. They were all gathered in front of her, and her entire person was about to blend in.

She did not take a closer look at Jiang Ming’s appearance just now. Only now did she realize that his appearance was truly shocking. Even his medical skills were extremely brilliant.

She suddenly felt a little jealous of the village’s eldest daughter, Chu Wanwan.

If only Jiang Ming were her groom.

Jiang Ming felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Xu Chuchu staring at him in a daze. He could not help but take a step back. However, when he saw that she did not respond for a long time, he had to remind her. “Xu Chuchu, what’s wrong with you?” What are you thinking about?”

Deep down, he felt a little awkward.

Why was Xu Chuchu staring at him? Could it be that there was something strange about him?

Xu Chuchu could not help but feel awkward. She coughed and said, “I’m fine. I was just thinking about something else. I can’t cancel this spell for the time being. I can only cancel it after you cook something for me to eat.”

She was a little embarrassed, and her eyes were flustered.

This was the drawback of her spells. After she used a spell, she would set a condition in her heart to cancel the spell.

After that, the spell would only be automatically removed after this condition was fulfilled.

If the conditions were not met, then the spell would always exist, and even she could not leave.

Jiang Ming was dumbfounded.

“Is that so? That means that if I can’t cook, you can only stay here, right?”

Xu Chuchu nodded awkwardly. She smiled and said, “I lied to you before. It’s indeed like this. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have wanted you to cook all this time. Even if the food really has no effect, I think I’m lucky. I can taste the food made by you. It’s a great pleasure in life. I heard from others that your food is simply top-notch and incomparably delicious. It’s a pleasure that I haven’t been able to get until now.”

“You’re exaggerating. I just happened to cook once. Forget it. I’ll start cooking now. The wedding is still in progress. I can’t delay it any longer.”

Jiang Ming turned to the stove and prepared all the ingredients.

Xu Chuchu also rolled up her sleeves. “I know how to cook too. Let’s cook together.”

Jiang Ming nodded and then said with some worry, “If you help me cook, will this spell count? Can we still cancel it?”

Xu Chuchu could not help but laugh. “It won’t go against the rules. This is a spell that I set up. As long as the conditions are met, it will be considered completed no matter who helps. Don’t worry.”

Jiang Ming heaved a sigh of relief and continued to cook.

On the other side, although Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe had stopped moving, they were still conscious and could still talk to each other.

Seeing their current situation, they could not help but be dumbfounded.

“What’s going on? Why can’t we move?”

Yuan Hehe said, “In the legends, I’ve heard of a stilling technique that was created by a rich young lady. However, no one has been able to learn it until now, and we don’t even know who that person is. Could it be that the young lady who knows the stilling technique has come?”

Sikong Wuyuan immediately denied it, “How is that possible?” If she really came, why did she come?”

“Could it be because of Jiang Ming? She doesn’t even know Jiang Ming. If we had met before, we should have been able to sense that she knew the stilling technique.”

Yuan Hehe also felt the same and instantly felt a headache coming on.

“This is really confusing. Perhaps there are other people who know the stilling technique?”

He began to make wild guesses again.

Sikong Wuyuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “You said it yourself. There’s only one person in the world who knows the stilling technique.”
