Chapter 138: Chapter 138: Really Foolish! (2)

The car stopped in the garage, and a clap of thunder echoed in the sky—it looked like rain was on the way.

She jogged all the way back to the living room.

"Where did you go?"

"I went back to Xiliang Mountain to see Su Changzhi. He’s made the pill for me." She switched shoes as she entered, "Eat it after dinner, so it won’t upset your stomach."

He frowned, "You want me to eat it? Are you asking me to ingest deadly poison?"

She burst into laughter, "What deadly poison? It’s a valuable item, not poison—you couldn’t buy it with any amount of money."

"What kind of valuable item?"

Gu Lili coyly teased him, "Eat it and I’ll tell you. Anyway, I’m not going to harm you, you must eat it."

He replied without hesitation, "I won’t eat it."

Gu Lili grew anxious at his words, "What if it gives you immunity to all poisons from now on, will you eat it?"

Long Yubei was somewhat confused, "Immunity to all poisons, what does that mean? Does it mean that no ingested poison can harm me?"

"Correct!" Gu Lili informed him earnestly, "It’s a valuable item that money can’t buy, and your wife here has only one."

He glanced at her skeptically, "Since it’s so good, why don’t you eat it?"

Seeing the disbelief on his face, Gu Lili retorted, "Are you afraid I’ll poison you to death?"

"Let’s split it—one half each. You eat first, then I will."

Gu Lili had wanted to tell him that she had already taken it, but his words made her feel a sting of sorrow—he didn’t trust her, and suddenly she didn’t want to say anything.

"Then don’t eat it."

Gu Lili went to the side hall to have dinner.

Long Yubei followed her closely, "So now you refuse to split it? Could it be there’s really something wrong with the pill?"

"Yes, there’s a problem, it’s specially made to poison you to death, don’t eat it."

Long Yubei looked at her puffed-up angry little face and the corners of his mouth quirked, "I’ll eat it then, don’t be angry."

"Do you know how precious this is?" She picked up her chopsticks and began eating without raising her head.

"How precious can it be? The ingredients you had Qing Li look for are not exactly rare or unparalleled." To him, they did not seem that extraordinary, "If it’s really as magical as you claim, scientific research would have already discovered it and it would be widely used by now."

"Well, after you eat it, let Qing Li try making the pill with those ingredients and see for yourself. See whether it’s that easy."

"I will do that." Long Yubei added, "To prove you’re wrong."

"Want to bet?" Gu Lili asked with a smirk, "Bet ten million yuan. If I’m right, you give me ten million, and if you’re right, I give you ten million."

"You only have a few million in savings, do you even have ten million?"

"I’m a walking wallet. I can easily make money by performing a few rituals. Worst case, I’ll mortgage one of my properties to you. Do you dare to bet?"

Long Yubei saw her confident manner and asked, "In addition to those ingredients, did you add anything else?"

"There’s another crucial ingredient, he only asked me to find these. What, don’t have the guts to bet?"

"If you can list all the ingredients, I’ll take the bet."

"Tell you everything so you can use it to develop a business and make a profit?" Gu Lili said gravely, "He will definitely not tell anyone else because this thing started with him and it will end with him. I only came to you because you are my husband."
