Chapter 152 - 151 Useless Gift
Chapter 152: Chapter 151 Useless Gift
It was a beautiful sky-blue series flying Mecha, clearly a meticulously designed model for women at first glance.
As the first-place winner in the competition, the school had already issued a reward; in fact, the Crown Princess Consort didn’t need to give anything.
Although having second thoughts, Qu Tong still handed a vial of clear potion to Bai Shuixin.
"This is what I asked for from Miss Ali. It can stimulate potential, with a chance to enhance constitution. It’s useful before the age of five, but whether to use it or not is up to you."
Bai Shuixin looked up in surprise as Qu Tong simply smiled, turned around, and got on the flying vehicle.
Bai Shuixin clenched the potion in her hand, feeling incredibly solemn. Could this be real?
Although she didn’t possess spiritual power, she knew how difficult it was to break through the barrier between SS+ and SSS-.
Yet Qu Tong mentioned there was a chance to increase it!
The Spiritual Essence Potions from the Kasa Empire, which commanded a high price, could only enhance the constitution below the SS-rank.
But this was Miss Jun Li’s potion, and Miss Jun Li was Elder Yuan’s disciple, which meant this potion might also be from Elder Yuan.
Bai Shuixin’s chest warmed up at the thought.
That night, the Crown Prince found the Emperor with the test report in hand.
Si Chen looked at the report:
Attribute: Psychotropic Potion
Purity: 100%
Spiritual Power Action Factor: -
Rank: -
Additional Flavor: None
Estimated Efficacy: -
Upon hearing the Crown Prince’s account and seeing this reference-poor report, Si Chen frowned, "Why is the attribute listed as a Psychotropic Potion, not a Spiritual Essence Potion?"
The updated machinery had made a separate classification for the Spiritual Essence Potions from the Kasa Empire, and could even detect values.
Why can’t data be detected in the potions now made by Elder Yuan?
It looked like the potion testing devices needed an upgrade. He should later push the old conservatives in the National Council, so they have something to do other than kvetch about him all day.
"I’m puzzled as well, but this was given to Niannian by the second Prince Consort Sister. It should be fine." The Crown Prince said with obvious excitement towards the end.
"Niannian is an SS+ constitution. Is there really a chance to advance to SSS-?" Si Chen was somewhat skeptical.
"If it’s Elder Yuan, it’s quite possible," the Empress interjected.
After all, when her father had been declared beyond help by everyone, it was Elder Yuan who had sent over the potion that eventually gave him a fighting chance.
Although he couldn’t escape the shattering of his Spirit Sea, his life was saved.
Elder Yuan might have a capricious temper, but the quality of his potions was beyond doubt.
Si Chen, however, thought of another matter: "Is the second Prince Consort that close to Elder Yuan? To just take such a precious potion?"
The Crown Prince shook his head, unsure, and Si Chen looked towards the Empress: "Are you close to Qu Tong? Have you ever heard her mention anything about Elder Yuan and Jun Li?"
The Empress said indifferently, "Is that important? Qu Tong was willing to ask Miss Jun Li on behalf of Niannian. We should be content with that."
With that said by the Empress, Si Chen felt his thoughts might have been inappropriate and decided not to pursue the topic, instead turning his gaze to the Crown Prince.
"How do you plan to deal with this potion?" Despite asking, there was an eagerness in Si Chen’s eyes.
The Crown Prince pretended not to see it and looked away, "Since it has 100% purity and poses no harm to Niannian, I plan to let Niannian try it."
Si Chen, seeing that the Crown Prince didn’t pick up on his hint, decided to advocate for himself: "Don’t you plan to take a small amount for the research institute? There might be new progress."
"What if it’s just short that little bit?" The Crown Prince said with a laugh and a shake of his head.
While the research institute’s progress was important, it wasn’t as important as Niannian.
Due to her condition, the Crown Prince placed great importance on this daughter and couldn’t tolerate any loss.
Besides, with the level of research those people had, not to be critical, but let them first understand the Spirit Power Stabilizing Potion.
Si Chen glared in irritation, "You’ve already decided; why come to the palace?"
"Naturally, to share the good news with Father Emperor."
Si Chen, "..."
The Empress watched the father and son’s subtle confrontation with an amused smile, savoring each cherry tomato with relish.
Si Chen had also hoped for another SSS-rank genius to emerge from the Si family, but could only sigh with regret, "Such a precious potion, there probably isn’t any left."
If it weren’t for his wife and son protecting Qu Tong, the little girl, he would have stooped to personally summon her and ask if there were any potions left—he knew his daughter-in-law had plenty of good stuff on her.
"It must have been quite difficult for the Crown Prince Consort to obtain this potion," the Crown Prince thought with gratitude and a touch of emotion.
"Here!"
As they sighed and lamented, the Empress handed a potion to Si Chen, mischief twinkling in her fox-like eyes.
Si Chen, "!!"
The Empress feigned worry, "Tongtong gave it to me, said it was of no use to her, and she would give me a proper gift next time she finds one."
Si Chen felt an imbalance in his heart—why couldn’t he have several of these "useless" gifts? He wouldn’t mind at all.
Seeing Si Chen and the Crown Prince’s unusually constipated expressions, the Empress laughed out loud and pushed the potion into Si Chen’s hands, magnanimously saying, "This thing is only useful for children under the age of five. Take it, don’t always eye what’s in Yufan’s hands."
"Ling’er, you’re the best," Si Chen took the potion and affectionately held the Empress’s hand.
The Crown Prince didn’t want to interrupt their affectionate display, so he quickly left.

Qu Tong returned to Yuelan Bay very late and went to bed after taking a bath.
Upon activating her light computer, she found Cheng Yao and the others discussing the exchange of rewards.
Fei Wenxing: [When do you all plan to go to Master Yan to customize your mecha?]
Cheng Yao: [I plan to go in the next couple of days, should we go as a group?]
Song Ke: [I’m okay with anytime.]
He Zhou: [+1]
Riyue Yuqing: [+1]
While she was reading, she received a private message from Rong Yueqing: [Prince Consort Sister, do you want to buy Void Crystal Stones?]
Qu Tong smiled when she saw the message.
How could there be someone as adorable as Rong Yueqing, the little beauty?
And such a perceptive little beauty at that—she only glanced once and already knew Qu Tong wanted Void Crystal Stones.
Qu Tong replied: [Do you have many?]
Rong Yueqing: [Not many, just two small pieces left. If you want more, you will have to ask my brother.]
Rong Yueqing sent Qu Tong a photo.
[If Prince Consort Sister wants them, I’ll sell both to you—a little cheaper, 4 million each.]
Qu Tong opened the picture and saw that indeed, it was a bargain—the Void Crystal Stones with Rong Yueqing were much larger than the one she had bid on at the auction.
Even such a small piece was worth 5 million, so the price for Rong Yueqing’s two pieces would only be higher.
Without any haggling, Qu Tong transferred 8 million to Rong Yueqing.
Qu Tong transferred out all the money from Mu’an Vegetable and Fruit Shop, contributing only a small portion herself.
After receiving the money, Rong Yueqing replied: [Then I will give them to you tomorrow at school.]
Qu Tong: [Okay.]
Rong Yueqing: [About customizing the mecha, do you want to go with us?]
Qu Tong, thinking about the mecha the Crown Princess Consort gave her, replied: [You guys go ahead, I’ve got things to do, I’ll go later.]
She also replied in the group chat.
Everyone knew about Qu Tong’s situation, so no one probed further, instead they asked about Xu An.
Fei Wenxing tagged Xu An in the group chat, but there was no
