Chapter 41: Jiang Su Returns
Mother Song was startled and almost fell. It was Song Ranran who, worried, immediately came over to support Mother Song.
Song Ranran looked at Song Jiaojiao’s sinister gaze and couldn’t help but jump in fright.
She originally thought Father Song was exaggerating, but now she felt he wasn’t exaggerating at all.
Song Jiaojiao had been parasitized by a Ghostly Entity, not only having her brain devoured but also her conscience.
The Song Jiaojiao of the past, though spoiled, would not have had such an appearance.
“Sister, can you give me that Sunflower? With that Spiritual Plant, I’m sure I can improve my physique and become a Beast Tamer.”
Song Jiaojiao saw Song Ranran and immediately grabbed her, pleading.
Song Jiaojiao’s hand tightly gripped Song Ranran’s, causing pain.
Song Ranran knew that Song Jiaojiao used to bully Song Tiantian often, so it was normal for Song Tiantian to not want to give Song Jiaojiao gifts.
Moreover, Song Jiaojiao had caused Song Tiantian to get a Zero Score on her Gaokao. If she hadn’t been lucky enough to meet Dr. Bai, Song Tiantian would have had almost no future.
Song Ranran didn’t know Dr. Bai’s identity, but she knew he must be very Powerful.
At this moment, Song Ranran understood the importance of Power. If she didn’t become a Beast Tamer, perhaps one day she would be parasitized by a Ghostly Entity like Song Jiaojiao without even knowing it.
If Song Tiantian hadn’t had connections that introduced Father Song to District Chief Leng, and District Chief Leng’s son hadn’t learned about Song Jiaojiao’s situation, Song Jiaojiao’s life would never have been saved.
Now, the entire Qingshan is terrified of ghostly entities. She had only been back for two days and had already had her blood drawn twice for assay.
Mother Song and Father Song had also each had their blood drawn once.
The earlier it’s found, the earlier it can be treated, and her life can be saved. If it were later, she would be dead for sure.
If Song Jiaojiao hadn’t dug Song Ranran’s hand until it bled, and Song Ranran hadn’t seen Song Jiaojiao’s pitiful appearance, she might have actually given the Sunflower to Song Jiaojiao. Ten thousand yuan was expensive, but she could afford it; one of her bags cost that much.
Song Ranran thought for a moment and said to Song Jiaojiao, “This flower is worth ten thousand yuan. I’ll give you ten thousand yuan. This flower is Tiantian’s token of affection, a gift Tiantian gave me, so I can’t give it to you. Take this money and buy another one!”
Song Ranran’s heart softened in the end. Song Jiaojiao’s face was swollen like a steamed bun, her eyebrows and features contorted, like a rag, looking disgusting and uncomfortable.
But this was Song Ranran’s last moment of softness.
“Thank you, Eldest Sister. You’re still the one who treats me the best.”
Song Jiaojiao received Song Ranran’s transfer and immediately became overjoyed.
She didn’t believe she was a good-for-nothing.
She still wanted to marry Liu Qun, and she firmly believed she had been reborn.
Ghostly entities were all lies.
With this money, and if she saved more, she might be able to Contract a Pet Beast!
Since Dr. Bai could cure Song Tiantian, perhaps Dr. Liu could cure her!
She could also be an experimental subject, make money, and get cured.
Song Jiaojiao took the money and went downstairs with her suitcase. Song Ranran had helped her pack the suitcase because Mother Song was pregnant and it was inconvenient for her to do physical labor.
Song Jiaojiao sat directly by the roadside and started a Live Broadcast, claiming she was particularly miserable because she had been parasitized by a Ghostly Entity. Although she was cured, she was beaten by her family and kicked out. She had to go to school alone in the middle of the night.
·········
Song Ranran was at home helping with chores, while Father Song went to his Room to Practice Cultivation.
Mother Song held the Sunflower, saying she wanted to help Song Ranran look after it. But in reality, she had heard from Song Tiantian that the flower could gather Spiritual Energy and improve physique, delaying aging, so she wanted to absorb more Spiritual Energy.
Song Ranran originally thought Father Song called her back to ask for money.
Especially after learning that Mother Song was pregnant, she was extremely unhappy.
She was very clear about Father Song’s meager Income.
If Father Song hadn’t said he had become a Law Enforcement Officer, Song Ranran would never have returned.
But she didn’t expect that Father Song genuinely cared for her and wanted her to become a Beast Tamer.
If she became a Beast Tamer, she would be a beautiful Beast Tamer Model.
Her Identity would be completely different, and she might even become more popular.
She was full of Hope for the future.
She also didn’t expect that everything at home would be fine.
She happened to have a business event coming up. She would look for an opportunity then to hook up with a rich guy and make hundreds of thousands, which would be enough to buy a Pet Beast.
She had actually researched Pet Beasts herself. The best choice for female celebrities was the Sprite, as Sprites were gentle and easiest to Contract. Moreover, Sprites could optimize the contractor’s skin, making them more beautiful.
And who wouldn’t want a Space?
It was a Space! Seeing Father Song and Song Tiantian casually produce an item out of nowhere, how could she not be tempted?
How could she not be excited?
Every time she wore a formal dress, she had nowhere to put her mobile phone. Heaven knows how much she wanted a Space, not only to put her mobile phone in but also to secretly spit out alcohol into the Space when drinking.
Just thinking about it made her excited.
That night, Mother Song placed the Sunflower by Song Ranran’s bed and specifically opened the window.
“Ranran, your dad said this flower is a Spiritual Plant and needs ventilation to absorb Spiritual Energy. Sleeping with it by your bed has a chance to improve your physique.”
“Mhm!”
Song Ranran inhaled the fragrance of the Sunflower. Perhaps it was a placebo effect, but she felt refreshed. The floral scent was also very pleasant.
Mother Song sent it back because Father Song would take out his Spiritual Plants at night. During the day, she could take Song Ranran’s Sunflower out to bask in the sun together and absorb Spiritual Energy.
······
Song Tiantian’s life was very fulfilling now.
Dr. Bai had also been very busy lately. It was said that Cold Fragrance Number One was extremely popular.
Dr. Bai had lectures and academic salons scheduled every day. He seemed to no longer be solely focused on academics.
However, Dr. Bai still had to eat Fruit Tea, Flower Tea, and Ice Cream every day, and they had to be fresh. Song Tiantian started going to Dr. Bai’s House every morning to prepare the entire day’s portion for him to take away. During holidays, Dr. Bai would ask for three days’ worth, and at that time, he wouldn’t complain about it not being fresh.
Song Tiantian thought Dr. Bai lived underground, but it turned out he lived on the Top floor.
After coming down from the Top floor, Song Tiantian began to wander around the Pet Beast Center. It was getting close to mealtime, so she couldn’t Practice Cultivation for too long.
“Tiantian!”
A familiar voice called out, filled with boundless joy.
Song Tiantian turned around and saw that Jiang Su had actually returned.
“You’re back from the Capital City special training?”
“Yes! I’m now a formal One-star Beast Tamer and can go to the battlefield! And my coordination with the Snow Lion is excellent.”
“Really? Congratulations. I’m already a Two-star Beast Tamer.”
