Mother is in a daze again.
Due to her limited mobility, Su Maomao, who had been sitting by the chopping board making dumplings, watched from the side as Su Nanyin raised her glass to toast Manager Zhao. Her brows furrowed.
Who were Li Wujiang and Manager Zhao?
The dazed empress, whose demeanor was like night and day before and after Li Qianfan's appearance, surely wouldn't escape their notice.
"I need to find a way to make Mom clearly understand her current situation."
Seeing Du Yaoyao trot into the dining room with a first-aid kit, Su Maomao's heart stirred.
She picked up her phone from the corner of the chopping board and glanced at Du Yaoyao.
Du Junlin understood, leaning his little face forward and flashing it in front of the phone.
The phone unlocked.
Su Zui covered her mouth with her hand, bending over and letting out a retch.
It was normal for pregnant women to feel nauseous upon smelling blood.
Su Zui quickly stood up and walked out of the living room, her other hand covering her mouth.
Those drinking at the table naturally saw her reaction.
"I'll go see what's wrong with her."
Su Nanyin, concerned about Maomao, instinctively got up and followed her out of the living room. "Maomao, are you feeling unwell because you smelled blood? Li Wujiang is such a brute, resorting to violence against Qianfan in our home. Hmph."
"Mom."
Su Zui turned back as she reached the corner of the front yard living room. "Don't you think your reaction just now was a bit strange?"
Su Nanyin blinked. "I was strange? What reaction of mine was too strange?"
Su Zui picked up Du Yaoyao's phone, found the video Du Yaoyao had taken, and handed it to Su Nanyin.
A smart woman—
As long as she could see!
She could see her state before Li Qianfan appeared and her state the moment he appeared.
Especially the words she yelled at Li Wujiang when she grabbed tissues to wipe Li Qianfan's blood.
Su Nanyin watched the video of herself on the phone for a long time without moving.
Before this,
She had been trapped in her own world, completely oblivious to how abnormal her mental state was.
Now,
In this video, she saw a lonely woman with impure thoughts!
"Mom, Chongchong, Yaoyao, and I all hope you can be happy and live a long life."
Su Zui took the phone back, looked at Su Nanyin, and said seriously, "No matter what storms this little boat sailing towards the shore of happiness encounters, your Maomaochongyao will always firmly surround you. We will never give up on you."
Su Nanyin smiled.
She gently stroked Su Maomao's cheek and said, "Silly child, you, Chongchong, and Yaoyao don't need to worry about my affairs. I know what I'm doing. To put it bluntly, if I, Su Nanyin, have locked onto something, no one can stop me or take it away! Go back to your room, it's cold outside. I'll go to the backyard and get you a padded jacket."
She hurried to the backyard.
However, she didn't go back to her room but sat on the swing set.
She gently kicked off with her toes.
She looked up at the stars and murmured softly, "For maritime transport, and for me to live, you didn't hesitate to give up all worldly glory and reside forever in the Misty Haven. Your affection, I must accept even if I don't want to! I am currently searching for a Gu King that can cultivate a pair of mandarin ducks. As long as I find the Gu King and a suitable host for the Gu worm, I can keep him alive."
As Su Nanyin mused this far, she took out her phone and opened it.
She accessed a document from her files.
He Lan Tingmei's profile!
More precisely, it was a blood type, bone marrow, and other sample analysis report.
Under the guise of secretly assessing He Lan Tingmei, it was too easy for Su Nanyin to obtain this information.
The reason she valued this sample analysis report—
If she and He Lan Tingmei could donate organs like kidneys to each other without any rejection (a probability of less than one in a million).
In other words: "He Lan Tingmei, like Su Nanyin, is a constitution highly likely to be a host for the mandarin duck Gu worm, similar to Zhuang Wujian!"
Su Nanyin sent Yaoyao to find the Gu King because she wanted to cultivate the mandarin duck described by Zhuang Wujian and then implant it into He Lan Tingmei.
With the intelligence of His Majesty the Emperor Su—
She had at least eighteen methods to ensure Li Qianfan and He Lan Tingmei would achieve a good outcome, thus avoiding the misfortune of premature aging!
"I will find the legendary Gu King and cultivate He Lan Tingmei into Qianfan's savior. Although doing so is unfair to He Lan Tingmei, it is far better than me or Zhuang Wujian stepping in personally. It's a shame we don't know who that Luo Huayin is. Her chances of saving Qianfan might be even higher than He Lan Tingmei's."
As Su Nanyin finished speaking to herself, she turned off her phone.
She looked up at the sky again.
She murmured, "However, how can I solve the problem of the Four Phoenixes Circling the Beam stabilizing maritime transport?"
Old Du and Shen Huiteng had made it very clear that Su Nanyin was the key to the Four Phoenixes Circling the Beam.
Once the Four Phoenixes Circling the Beam formation was successful, Maomaochongyao could withdraw, but she alone could not leave Li Qianfan.
The wind blew.
Su Nanyin shivered but still murmured, "I just don't know if the plan I've been thinking about these past few days will work."
After a moment of furrowing her brow.
She raised her phone again and, with urgent speed, called someone.
Soon.
An old man's voice came through, "Lay disciple Su, what can I do for you?"
"Daoist priest, I just have one question."
Su Nanyin pursed her lips tightly and asked in a low voice, "If my liver, kidneys, and even my heart were transplanted into a woman with a matching compatibility, and she replaced me by Li Qianfan's side, would the Four Phoenixes Circling the Beam formation be affected?"
The daoist priest on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time.
Su Nanyin didn't rush but waited patiently.
After an unknown period, the old man on the phone said, "Theoretically, it is feasible. However, the Four Phoenixes Circling the Beam seeks not only what you've mentioned but also one crucial element."
Su Nanyin anxiously pressed, "Please tell me, what is the key point?"
Four words came from the phone: "Birth date and time."
The reason Su Nanyin was destined to be the phoenix who couldn't leave the "beam" was that the Four Phoenixes Circling the Beam formation was centered around her birth date and time.
Su Nanyin's teeth clenched her lip fiercely.
It bit so hard that blood trickled out.
She didn't realize it.
She just gave a bitter laugh instinctively and said, "It was already destined in the depths of fate. Besides being younger than me, He Lan Tingmei shares the same month and day of birth as me! If I recall correctly, she was also born around dawn."
On the evening of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Li Qianfan drove away. Su Nanyin realized her greatest fear (signs of a burgeoning romance) had occurred. In a panic, she thought of the "liver transplant" method and began searching the gene bank using her position. After unexpectedly discovering He Lan Tingmei, who was compatible with her.
She would definitely think of the "birth date and time" aspect!
After all, any feng shui formation involving people placed great importance on birth dates and times.
Su Nanyin was surprised to find that He Lan Tingmei, who was younger than her, shared the same birthday. She immediately sent people to thoroughly investigate her specific birth time.
He Lan Tingmei's birth time also perfectly matched Su Nanyin's!!
Upon receiving all of He Lan Tingmei's information, Su Nanyin thought of a sentence: "Could it be that He Lan Tingmei is my substitute in this world?"
Although she had known this for a long time, she hadn't dared to tell anyone.
Tonight—
Du Junlin deliberately recorded her instinctive reaction upon seeing Li Qianfan. Su Maomao showed it to her, making things clear between them!
Su Nanyin realized she couldn't continue like this and then called a certain daoist priest.
"Alas. Lay disciple Su."
A certain daoist priest sighed deeply and said, "Why are you doing this? Doing this will render Lay disciple Shen's hard work in vain."
Su Nanyin looked up.
She gazed quietly at the brightest star in the sky and murmured as if in a dream, "I will apologize to him personally after he passes away in a hundred years. Daoist priest, I will never wear that wooden yoke, even if it means death. The key is that if the beam is not by my side, I become disoriented. This proves the formation's influence on me is growing stronger. I cannot let Su Nanyin's lifelong integrity be ruined by this."
A certain daoist priest remained silent.
"Daoist priest, please keep this a secret for me."
After Su Nanyin finished speaking, she ended the call.
Feeling completely relieved, she kicked off with her toes, and the swing swayed.
The stars.
The swing set.
Her flowing hair.
The noble and even more alluring woman was contemplating how to make He Lan Tingmei have to undergo liver and kidney transplants.
A healthy person would naturally not want to have their kidneys replaced.
"But you must!"
Su Nanyin gritted her teeth. "He Lan Tingmei, I'm sorry."
In the central courtyard living room.
Li Qianfan, with a band-aid on his forehead and a scowl on his face, walked to the sofa. Before he could sit down, his phone rang.
"I'll take this call first," Li Qianfan said to Manager Zhao. Ignoring the violent woman, he turned and quickly walked out.
He reached the corner of the central courtyard living room, turned his back to the wind blowing (a northerly wind from the backyard), leaned against the wall, and raised his phone. "Wife, you're calling me. Is it because your mother-in-law visited several wealthy families this afternoon?"
"No."
Su Ziyu's voice was not loud but carried joy. "Little husband, Grandma has finally found a way to prevent your premature aging!"
Li Qianfan was stunned and quickly asked, "What way?"
"Gu worms."
Su Ziyu said, "As long as a special type of Gu worm is implanted in me, and we are intimate again, you will live a long life!"
