Divorce Revenge System: Knowing the Future in Advance

"What are you doing?"

Xu Shuang: "I..."

"You think you can just take any medicine?" Jiang Nian awkwardly stepped forward to take a look. "What does this medicine do?"

"It’s for replenishing qi and blood," Xu Shuang was also embarrassed. "But it has no side effects, just for aiding exercise."

"Exercise?"

"Exercise what?"

"Stamina. Recently, I’ve been feeling a bit weak," Xu Shuang said. "Resting while also supplementing."

Jiang Nian: "???"

He glanced at Xu Shuang, who looked healthy and rosy. He wondered why someone looking this well needed to supplement, opened his mouth to speak, then closed it.

After a few seconds of silence, he asked again.

"What about the Daoist?"

"Studying the prescriptions. She only knows the basics," Xu Shuang replied. "There are some that she can’t understand."

Impressive, one dares to prescribe, another dares to drink.

"Come with me."

"What?" Xu Shuang had just walked over when Jiang Nian grabbed her and took her out of the house without a word.

"Hey, where are you going?"

"The hospital."

After a bit of a fuss, Jiang Nian was surprised to discover. The Daoist indeed knew her stuff, Xu Shuang was perfectly fine.

Not only that, but she was also much healthier.

But...

Supplementing stamina was pointless.

"I told you, there’s no problem," Xu Shuang rolled her eyes. "What a pity it’s only for replenishing qi and blood."

"What if, though?" Jiang Nian laughed, baffled.

Can’t figure it out; she’s sweet and authoritative. Basically the princess of half the county, why do such silly things?

"I..." Xu Shuang wanted to argue but lacked conviction. "I just wanted to try, what if it worked?"

"’Try and you die.’" (A play on words in Chinese)

"Let’s go!"

"Where to?"

"Back, to find that fool Zhao Yiqiu!"

Hearing this, Xu Shuang panicked, "Don’t scold Qiuqiu, she was unwilling at first, I insisted."

Jiang Nian froze for a moment, thinking, What are you saying?

He didn’t intend to scold Zhao Yiqiu.

Since everything was okay, what more could he say? He just wanted to go back and see her qi and blood replenishment prescription.

See if they could tailor a few varieties on a one-to-one basis.

It’s good stuff.

However, Xu Shuang had already said so much. Jiang Nian naturally wouldn’t explain but instead followed up with "anger" and said,

"How could she do this!"

"It’s so irresponsible! What if something happened! Don’t try persuading me, no pleading will work, I must find her!"

Seeing this, Xu Shuang, although anxious, couldn’t help but feel touched. Despite... he still cared quite a bit about her.

"Let it go, let’s forget about it."

She pulled Jiang Nian, but it was no use. Jiang Nian insisted on finding trouble with Zhao Yiqiu, making her very anxious.

In her panic, she had no choice but to make a promise.

"As long as you don’t..."

"Hmm?" Jiang Nian was stunned, turned to look at her, full of surprise and doubt, "Really, that’s not necessary."

"Really!"

"Cough cough..." Jiang Nian touched his face and then changed his attitude, "Alright, fine, let’s drop it."

...

"What?"

Zhao Yiqiu was initially bewildered and then a bit panicked, "He... he won’t come after me, will he?"

But this matter is indeed a bit risky.

"Boss, didn’t you explain for me?" She was a bit anxious. If Jiang Nian held a grudge against her, it would be all over.

Her future...

The perfect retirement life, ruined. She’s still so young, only twenty years old!! Boo hoo hoo!!

"Don’t panic."

"It’s already settled." Xu Shuang forced a smile, then pulled her over, "By the way, I wanted to ask you something."

"Boss, what?"

"Well, it’s..."

On the other side, Jiang Nian returned to class. He was a bit surprised, Xu Shuang actually proposed such a condition.

A rare occasion.

After all, she seems to have a bit of a cleanliness habit.

But Jiang Nian didn’t dwell on it, he was just playing along. His goal was still to find out from Zhao Yiqiu.

Good stuff should be put to use.

As night fell.

As promised, Jiang Nian arrived at Xu Shuang’s apartment. Looking around as he entered, he found Zhao Yiqiu was absent once again.

Disappointed, where did the Daoist go.

"Is it just you?"

Hearing this, Xu Shuang was surprised.

"Who were you expecting?"

"No, I mean..." he coughed, "Where did the Daoist go? I have something to discuss with her."

Xu Shuang nodded.

"She went out for fun."

"Didn’t you promise me, not to trouble her?" She pursed her lips, her gaze flickering uncertainly.

In the morning, she didn’t know what worked, but she even checked some information.

"I’m not going to trouble her," Jiang Nian was at a loss for words, "Never mind, let’s leave it for now."

"Hey hey, wait..."

That night, Jiang Nian considered himself to have scored a small win. However, Xu Shuang did not change a thing, and still lay like a dead dog.

"So tired."

"Tiredness is normal." Jiang Nian patted her, but she didn’t even have the strength to turn over, lying completely still.

"I’ll just sleep a while... just a while."

Jiang Nian didn’t listen to her, carrying her off to wash up. Fearing she’d overthink, he tried to comfort her on the way.

"This isn’t your problem, it’s just..."

"Mhm..."

He explained it indirectly, finally making Xu Shuang understand. She was stunned, as if struck by lightning.

"Then what do I do?"

"We’ll talk about it later; there’s no solution right now," Jiang Nian was optimistic. After all, whether Xu Shuang had a solution or not,

He had a solution.

"Oh, okay." Xu Shuang was too tired to think much, washing up before falling into a deep sleep.

The next day, waking up from a full night’s sleep.

Xu Shuang sat up abruptly, frowning in thought. From her perspective, the experience was quite good.

After all, she’d had her fill.

But in the long run, it’s not beneficial for this relationship. Especially since Jiang Nian has many options.

Hmm, back to square one.

However, the path of replenishing the body was now blocked by Jiang Nian; getting caught again would be more troublesome.

Not only for herself, but Qiuqiu would also be in trouble. After all, Jiang Nian really knows her grandfather.

Moreover, he has some influence.

A complaint there, regardless of her grandfather’s reaction. Just facing Xu Yuanshan would be intimidating enough.

Better off dead.

In the end, Xu Shuang called Zhao Yiqiu over, letting her do a divination and discussing if there were any solutions.

After much pondering, none seemed reliable.

"Boss, you have to rely on yourself," Zhao Yiqiu said, "Get more exercise, it’s better than nothing."

"That’s true."

"Time to resume morning runs." Xu Shuang sighed, yet seemed to have an idea as she looked into the distance.

How does Li Qingrong manage it?

....

In a blink, half a month passed.

Late April.

Li Lanying returned home, finding it silent. She was perplexed since Qingqing clearly said she was home.

"Qingqing?"

"Your smart and brave sister is home! Why aren’t you coming to greet me, Qingqing? Strange, where are you?"

She glanced around, thinking things had gone wrong.

Could it be Jiang Nian came over?

That rascal!

Suddenly, the room door opened. A sleepy-eyed Li Qingrong stood at the door, rubbing her eyes.

"You’re back?"

"Mhm," Li Lanying looked puzzled, "Why are you so sleepy? Didn’t you sleep last night?"

As she spoke, she deliberately emphasized ’last night’.

"I slept, still tired," Li Qingrong replied, her tone drifting. "I’m going back to sleep."

Li Lanying: "???"

She took a moment to peek into her sister’s room. The minimalist room was almost completely visible with a glance.

Jiang Nian wasn’t there either.

After all, he had nothing to hide. Except he almost did it right in front of her, that pesky wild boar in her cabbage patch.

"Are you sick?"

"No."

"Want to go see a doctor?"

"No."

"Hey hey..." Li Lanying watched the room door close, a bit speechless, "Alright then, I’ll call you at noon."

Unexpectedly, Li Qingrong slept until the afternoon.

She came out of her room.

"I’m so hungry."

Li Lanying, filled with worry, glanced at her sister. After frowning and observing for a while, she finally sighed.

"There’s food in the kitchen."

"Mhm."

She watched Li Qingrong head to the kitchen, examining her from top to bottom without any clues, muttering to herself.

"She must be sick."

In the kitchen, Li Qingrong turned on the front camera and took a look. No significant change, just slightly thinner.

Just, her eyes looked a bit weary.
