Marrow Cleansing Spring

Chen Youlu took the opportunity to tidy up her skirt and pull it out, just above her knees. After this interlude, the two of them were very silent for the rest of the journey. Love songs played continuously in the car, and the atmosphere was charming.

Soon, the sedan left the seaside area and entered the city before entering the suburbs. The surrounding buildings gradually transitioned from bustling high-rise buildings to self-built houses on both sides of the road.

The car was like a jumping white elf that drove on the road. The elegant and beautiful white coupe attracted the attention of countless car owners and passers-by. It could be said that there were many people turning their heads and receiving a lot of attention.

Chen Youlu was used to this.

Unconsciously, the cars on the road deliberately made way for them. Originally, it was a 30-minute journey by car, but now, it only took 20 minutes. At the entrance of the district, before Chen Chu could greet the property security guard, the gate lever automatically rose.

Chen Chu smacked his lips. It was good to be rich.

"Sister Youlu, the building in front. Oh yes, there's a public parking space." Chen Chu instructed Chen Youlu to park the car. When he got out of the car with his things, the raised butterfly door attracted the attention of the owners of the surrounding neighborhoods.

Some of the young people who were on weekend break gathered around and stood not far away, pointing and talking.

"That's a Ferrari coupe, right? It's so good-looking. I feel that this car is much better-looking than many supercars."

"This is the new Ferrari Roma. It's worth more than three million."

When Chen Chu got out of the front passenger seat, many people were stunned.

"Eh, that seems to be from our neighborhood, right?"

"He looks familiar. I've seen him in the elevator a lot. I think so."

"I know. His family runs a meat stall in the market. My mother often goes to his stall to buy meat. I've followed her there a few times."

"F*ck, what's this? Are there so many rich people selling meat these days? Can he afford to drive a Ferrari?"

Chen Chu ignored everyone's surprised and envious gazes. This was the good and bad thing about living in a neighborhood. He didn't have much interpersonal relationships and basically didn't know the people living opposite him.

Chen Chu carried his things and said to Chen Youlu, "Sister Youlu, this way."

The two of them entered the building, got into the elevator, and walked all the way home.

…

"Dad, Mom, I'm back." Chen Chu opened the door.

At this moment, the couple, who had just finished eating and were watching television in the living room, turned around. They saw Chen Chu walking in with an extremely beautiful girl with something in his hand.

Chen Guoqiang and his wife suddenly felt like his son had brought his girlfriend to their house for the first time.

"Son, who is this?" Yang Yumei did not even look at Chen Chu. Instead, she stared at Chen Youlu with a smile. His son was only 16 years old, and it was indeed a little early to find a girlfriend. But it didn't matter. His son had learned to seduce other people's little cabbages early on. She couldn't be happier.

"Hello, Uncle and Auntie!" Chen Youlu greeted them generously.

Chen Guoqiang and Yang Yumei smiled and agreed. "Hello, you're Chen Chu's classmate, right? You're so beautiful. Come, come, come. Come in and take a seat."

Chen Chu brought them in and the family sat down. His father boiled water to rinse the teapot and teacup and prepared to make tea. "Dad, Mom, this is Sister Youlu. Her surname is Chen. She's not my classmate. She's already graduated from university."

Yang Yumei was surprised. "You've already graduated from university?" She stared at Chen Chu inquisitively. If they weren't classmates, how did they meet? Why did he bring her home?

Chen Chu scratched his head, not knowing how to explain. "I went to Sister Youlu's house to play today."

Yang Yumei was even more confused. Playing in someone else's house? Did he meet her parents, then?

Chen Youlu explained, "Auntie, Chen Chu knows my father. My father invited Chen Chu over for tea today. I drove Chen Chu back just now."

"Ah, you drove!" Yang Yumei was surprised.

In such a small place, a person who drove a car after graduating from university had an impressive family. There was no need to talk about girls.

"Uncle, Auntie, this is a gift from my father to the two of you. Don't mind it." Chen Youlu picked up the bag that Chen Chu had just lifted from the table and pushed it in front of the two of them.

Yang Yumei quickly postponed it. "That won't do. I can't accept it."

Chen Youlu insisted, "Auntie, this is my father's kind intentions. You must accept it. My dad asked me to say hi on his behalf."

"Ah, this…" The couple had no idea what the relationship between Chen Chu and Chen Youlu's father was.

How did he get to know someone from the older generation? He was so serious and even specially brought gifts for them. Yang Yumei quickly smiled at Chen Youlu and pretended to walk away. She secretly waved at Chen Chu. Chen Chu also walked over and was pulled into the kitchen by Yang Yumei.

"Son, what's going on? How do you know this young lady's father? Why did he specially bring us gifts?"

Chen Chu did not know what to say. Should he say that this was Chen Baijia's daughter? Hence, he said vaguely, "I just met him before. Uncle Chen takes good care of me too. Mom, you'd better accept the gifts, or she'll be embarrassed. We could return the favor."

Yang Yumei nodded thoughtfully when she heard this. She deliberately stuck her head out to look at Chen Youlu's tall and slender back. "Alright, then I'll send some sausages and cured meat that we dried ourselves."

Chen Chu recalled that the system had refreshed some rewards yesterday. There was an inexhaustible Marrow Cleansing Spring inside. The spring water had the effect of cleansing one's marrow and strengthening one's physique, but it was not too exaggerated.

It was impossible to rely on the Marrow Cleansing Spring to become Superman.

On the other hand, there was hope of becoming like Hercules, who was strong enough to carry a cauldron. However, he had to drink for a long time and could not stop. He had to fully absorb the special factors contained in the Marrow Cleansing Spring.

Otherwise, it could only eliminate fatigue and quickly replenish stamina. Chen Chu planned to give some to Chen Youlu when she returned.

Yang Yumei went to get the bacon and sausages, while Chen Chu took out a five liter water dispenser. After washing it clean, he filled it with a bucket of Marrow Cleansing Spring. He prepared to change the intelligent water dispenser beside the coffee table into the Marrow Cleansing Spring. In the future, he would use this spring water to drink tea and cook at home.

…

When the two of them returned, Chen Youlu and his father were drinking tea. His mother chatted with Chen Youlu for a while, then got up and went out to buy groceries, preparing to keep Chen Youlu for dinner.

"Auntie, there's no need to go through so much trouble."

"There is. You talk to Chen Chu. Your uncle and I are going out to buy groceries," Yang Yumei said to Chen Youlu with a smile. She turned around and warned Chen Chu, "Be good with your Sister Youlu. If you make her unhappy, be careful of your skin!"

Chen Chu: "???"

The door closed and the two of them stared at each other awkwardly.

Chen Chu gestured for Chen Youlu to take a seat while he went to change the smart water dispenser beside the coffee table into the Marrow Cleansing Spring.

Chen Youlu looked at the house curiously. Although it was small, it was decorated and full of life. It looked quite warm.

Chen Chu brewed a new pot of tea and used the Marrow Cleansing Spring. His action of brewing tea was unsightly. It was not like Chen Baijia who had learned tea arts before, so it was fine as long as ordinary people could drink it. He did not know if it was a psychological effect, but he felt that after the tea was brewed, the water vapor that filled the air made him feel refreshed.
