Charlie was unaware that the moment he sent the ring to Lin Wan’er (ni), he had inadvertentlypromised the girl’s chastity.


    In the context of the Ming Dynasty, for a girl, being seen by a man or engaging in intimate acts with him typically meant one of two fates: marrying him or facing death to uphold her honor.


    Thus, Charlie had no inkling that Lin Wan’er (ni) had resolutely resolved in her heart to remain unmarried for life.


    Furthermore, he was oblivious to the fact that Lin Wan’er (ni), having lived through both the Ming and Qing dynasties, held views on marriage that were drastically different.


    In Lin Wan’er (ni)’s perspective, it was entirely eptable for a man to have multiple wives and concubines. She would dly ept the role of a concubine to Charlie and respectfully refer to ire as her elder sister.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    At that moment, Charlie felt a wave of rxation wash over him, only to be quickly reced by an overwhelming sense of fatigue that enveloped both his body and mind.


    Even though his cultivation had been restored and his body was filled with spiritual energy, he felt an exhausting weariness that made him reluctant to open his eyes.


    So, he tore up the letter he had intended for ire and decided to take a much-needed afternoon rest at home. Later that evening, he nned to visit the half-mountain vi at Champs Elysees Hot Spring to formally meet with his grandparents and their family.


    As hey on the bed, although his tired body found some relief, his mind was still racing, buzzing like an overloaded engine.


    Last night’s events shed through his thoughts in rapid session, like a slideshow.


    He vividly recalled the moment before his impending death, marked by a profound sense of unwillingness deep in his heart.


    Fortunately, the ring that Lin Wan’er (ni) gifted him had saved his life at that critical juncture.


    Reflecting on this, he felt a surge of gratitude towards the ring.


    He instinctively held the ring in his hand, closed his eyes, and savored its smooth, warm texture.


    In the past, Charlie had viewed this ring as the greatest con he had ever encountered, having drained his spiritual energy multiple times. He found it far more infuriating than any telmunication scam.


    Yet, it turned out that this ring had been silently safeguarding him all along, with the energy it absorbed serving as life-saving reserves.


    If it hadn’t been for the repeated energy withdrawals, the ring would never have been able to bring him to Lin Wan’er (ni) at the crucial moments.


    Therefore, Charlie took out two Peiyuan Pills and continued to channel the vigorous energy within him into the ring.<fn771e> This update is avable on Find~Novel</fn771e>


    To his surprise, the ring, which had remained dormant for a day, eagerly absorbed all the spiritual energy Charlie offered, like parched earth soaking up rain.


    As the aura within Charlie was nearly depleted, he quickly swallowed the two Peiyuan Pills he had prepared.


    This time, he was generous with his energy, focused solely on nourishing the ring first.


    …
