"Why so much talk about romance?"
Ling Yishan asked with a puzzled expression, "What does that mean?"
Chen Mo spread his hands and said, "Love and alchemy are similar, it’s all about accumulated experience. Daoist Qingxuan doesn’t understand relationships between men and women simply because she has too few experiences and lacks practice..."
"..."
Ling Ningzhi’s face turned slightly red, and she silently spat.
Tianshu Pavilion is a sect for female cultivators, which emphasizes the Path of Forget Love. She hasn’t met many men, so what practice could there be?
Apart from her grandfather, Chen Mo was the first man she had truly come into contact with.
As a result, she found herself bullied just like this...
Ling Yishan furrowed his brow and said in a stern voice, "You’re implying you’re using my granddaughter as practice?"
Chen Mo didn’t answer but instead asked in return, "Can Elder Ling guarantee that every pill he refines is perfect?"
Ling Yishan shook his head and said, "Alchemy relies on the right timing, environment, and people. The slightest change can lead to vastly different outcomes, even a Pill Saint cannot guarantee success every time."
"Exactly, it’s the same between a man and a woman."
Chen Mo earnestly said, "The medicinal properties can conflict, let alone two completely different people? To manage a relationship well, one must master the timing, find the right opportunity, and also have a bit of luck... No matter the result, doing your best is enough."
Ling Yishan pondered for a moment, then suddenly realized and frowned, "You brat, are you going in circles with me? You said a lot but meant nothing, do you think an old man like me needs you to teach me this reasoning?"
Chen Mo cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Ling is reasonable and insightful, naturally, there’s no need for me to say much."
"..."
Ling Yishan found this both amusing and irritating, and said, "Now I understand, you’re a very slippery one, Zhi’er is probably helping you count the money even as you’re selling her!"
"Mr. Ling, you’re exaggerating."
Chen Mo put on an image of innocence.
Ling Yishan suddenly called him over, having surely discovered something.
After all, the two had indeed had intimate contact, and Ling Ningzhi was clearly the type who couldn’t hide anything... at such times, to keep pushing back and justifying oneself would only cause dissatisfaction.
What he just said was, in fact, a "disclaimer."
So that if something went wrong, the old man wouldn’t find fault with him again...
"Grandfather," Ling Ningzhi tugged on Ling Yishan’s arm, and said softly, "Mr. Chen is my lifesaver, can’t you just let him off?"
"Heh, a grown daughter can’t be kept, is this not all for you? Just asked a bit more, and you’re already defending him... fine, I won’t ask anymore, no more questions." Ling Yishan waved his hand in disinterest.
"Grandfather, I wasn’t..."
Ling Ningzhi’s face was a bit flushed, she secretly glanced at Chen Mo.
