Chapter 1 : The Son-in-law
- Gu Family Village.
- Late at night.
- Ye Ming sat on the porch outside the tile house, holding a blanket and listening to the chirping of crickets, feeling particularly grating.
- Today was his wedding night, but he was kicked out of the room by his wife and could only sit outside.
- He was from the neighboring Ye Family Village and the only college student studying medicine in the village. After graduating, he aspired to become a good doctor. However, just after graduation, he received the devastating news that his grandmother had passed away in the largest hospital in the city.
- He already had medical knowledge and after reviewing the medical records, it was clear that it was a misdiagnosis. So he wanted to confront the hospital with his parents.
- The hospital refused to admit any fault, and even the media dared not get involved. The matter was left unresolved, but Ye Ming couldn't let it go.
- His grandmother had been very good to him since he was young. With his parents working outside, it was his grandmother who took care of him. He couldn't just let it go.
- Later, he found out that the doctor who made the misdiagnosis was from a powerful family in the city, which explained why even the media didn't dare to provoke them.
- Unable to fight against the powerful, Ye Ming had no choice but to return to the village and borrow money to open a small clinic. However, due to medical disputes, he ended up angering the local gangsters in the town, who smashed his clinic and even injured his father, who had to be hospitalized.
- Because of his grandmother's medical treatment and the expenses of the clinic, he was already heavily in debt.
- Helpless, he became a son-in-law, just to earn some dowry money to repay his debts.
- People in the village said that his wife used to sell herself in the city and now she couldn't find a husband, so she came back to find an honest man.
- Ye Ming didn't know if it was true or not, but he didn't think it was just a rumor. He just felt unlucky that it happened to him.
- He took out a jade stone that his grandmother had given him before she passed away and gently caressed it, sighing, "Grandma, one day I will seek justice for you!"
- Just as he was about to put the jade stone away, he accidentally dropped it on the ground.
- "Oh no," he felt a chill in his heart.
- As expected, the jade stone shattered into pieces.
- Ye Ming's mind exploded. This jade stone had been passed down through generations, and now...
- Suddenly, a white light flashed in his mind, and endless knowledge appeared in his mind.
- Acupuncture, massage, Chinese medicine, surgery...
- At the same time, he opened his eyes and everything in front of him changed.
- "X-ray vision? No, it's not just simple x-ray vision. Everything in front of my eyes is breaking down, every detail is visible." Ye Ming trembled, feeling incredible, as if he had opened another door.
- Suddenly, a voice echoed in his mind.
- "I am the remnant soul of the ancient alchemist. The alchemist died without leaving a successor. If you are destined, you will inherit the alchemist's legacy and the Divine Eye, and help the world!"
- The voice disappeared, and he came back to his senses. Everything seemed normal, as if nothing had happened.
- At this moment, the sound of the door opening came, and he turned around to see his wife, Gu Xiaonan, standing at the door in loose pajamas.
- Speaking of which, Gu Xiaonan was very beautiful.
- She was about 1.68 meters tall, with delicate features and a perfect figure. Ye Ming had rarely seen such a perfect girl.
- "What are you looking at? Do you want me to invite you in?" Gu Xiaonan snorted coldly.
- Ye Ming quickly walked into the room, realizing that he had been staring at her.
- Gu Xiaonan, although in her pajamas, was so thin that under the light, her perfect figure could be vaguely seen, especially her ample bosom.
- He suddenly remembered that he had X-ray vision now. Could it be...
- A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and when he looked, he almost had a nosebleed.
- "Do you like what you see?" Gu Xiaonan asked with a faint smile.
- Ye Ming nodded awkwardly, "It's big."
- "Big? You wish! Do you want to be kicked out?" Gu Xiaonan punched him on the forehead, causing him to feel a slight pain and finally react.
- "Today, let me set a rule for you. From now on, you sleep on the floor, and I sleep on the bed. We have nothing to do with each other. I am a black belt in Taekwondo, so if you have any inappropriate thoughts, don't blame me for being impolite." Gu Xiaonan threatened.
- Ye Ming nodded and thought to himself, "You're just a former prostitute, and you dare to pretend to be modest in front of me."
- Of course, he only thought about it in his mind. If he said it out loud, he would probably be kicked out of the room. This was the tragedy of being a son-in-law.
- "Sleep on the floor."
- Gu Xiaonan said and went to lie on the bed.
- Since it was summer and there was no blanket, she lazily lay there, her graceful figure fully exposed. She was truly a beauty, and Ye Ming couldn't take his eyes off her.
- He shook his head, made the floor bed, and lay down, turning off the light.
- Gu Xiaonan reminded, "Ye Ming, let me tell you the truth. The reason I gave you money and made you my son-in-law is all because of my mother. My father passed away early, and she raised me alone. Now she has mild dementia, and the doctor said that listening to her and providing her with a comfortable environment would help her condition.
- She has always had a wish for me to get married and have children, and you happened to need money. For both of us, this is a mutually beneficial arrangement.
- So, don't take this marriage seriously. Just think of it as getting paid to act with me. In a few days, I will send my mother to a nursing home in the city, and you can come with me to live in the city. You can do whatever you want, but you can't interfere with what I do, understand?"
- Ye Ming was stunned, finally understanding why she did all this.
- A nursing home in the city? And according to her, they even bought a house in the city? This girl was rich!
- But thinking about it, it made sense. Such a beautiful woman could sell herself for a good price.
- "I understand," Ye Ming replied and decided to go to sleep.
- However, at this moment, someone sneaked up to the door and stood there, peeking through the crack.
- Gu Xiaonan realized it and quickly whispered to Ye Ming, "Quick, come to the bed!"
