She flicked the belly of the Millennium Blood Ginseng with her finger to see what reaction it would have.

"Ah!"

"It hurts to death! It hurts to death! Master, someone wants to murder your little Ginseng, come and save me! Hurry up and save me!" the Millennium Blood Ginseng panicked and quickly sought help from An Qi.

But An Qi merely smiled without speaking, showing no intention of helping it, which left it utterly hopeless.

If it weren't for the power it needed from An Qi, it would have turned its back on her long ago. Sadly, it had to bow its head under another's roof. Having chosen An Qi as its master, it had no choice but to accept all the ensuing torment that came with it.

"This thing can actually get scared and even scream, how amusing," little Lian said as if she had discovered a new continent, constantly playing with the Millennium Blood Ginseng.

Sometimes she tossed the Millennium Blood Ginseng into the air, sometimes she twirled holding its hand, and sometimes she flicked it away, thoroughly enjoying herself.

The Millennium Blood Ginseng was played with until it was dizzy and pained all over, beyond misery.

Seeing that the play had gone far enough, Lin Yifan stopped it, "Alright! Little Lian, stop playing with it, or you're going to play it to death."

"Brother! What is this thing? Is it a toy you brought back from Feizhou for little Lian?" little Lian curiously asked.

"You're also called little Lian?" the Millennium Blood Ginseng asked in surprise.

The Tianshan Snow Lotus was called little Lian, and it turned out this Demon Angel was also called little Lian; however, how could these two little Lians be so different? One was the Ginseng's dream lover, while the other was a demon it despised and feared.

"Yeah! From now on, I'm your master, so hurry up and call me master," little Lian commanded.

"Sorry, I already have a master," the Millennium Blood Ginseng responded.

"Well, what belongs to my brother also belongs to me," little Lian countered.

"I am the master of Sister An Qi, not your brother's master," the Millennium Blood Ginseng explained.

"My sister-in-law belongs to my brother, so what belongs to my sister-in-law also belongs to me," little Lian replied.

"I'm dizzy!" the Millennium Blood Ginseng completely collapsed. Given the choice between following this Demon Angel and dying, it would rather die.

"Little Lian! Mind your words. Your sister-in-law is not my possession, she has her own dignity and personality, and you must respect her," Lin Yifan scolded.

"I know, it was just a joke, is it necessary to be so serious? Jeez," little Lian rolled her eyes and said unhappily.

"Alright! Little Lian, stop playing with the Millennium Blood Ginseng. It's my lifesaver, very important to me, and to everyone else too," An Qi finally spoke up in its defense, as its master.

The Millennium Blood Ginseng was moved to tears; it didn't expect its master to finally come to its protection.

"Sister-in-law, were you awakened by it?" little Lian asked with a face full of surprise.

Even the profoundly mysterious old grandma couldn't awaken An Qi, yet this bizarre thing managed to bring her back to life; it truly was a wonder.

"Mhm!" An Qi nodded in response.

"Wow! The Millennium Blood Ginseng lives up to its name! To think it has such an effect; if I'm about to die, could it save me too?" little Lian asked.

"So you should be a bit nicer to it, don't play it to death. Otherwise, your brother won't know where to find a Spiritual Medicine to heal all of us," An Qi replied.

"Divine Ginseng, sorry for being a bit heavy-handed just now, please don't blame me," Xiao Lian quickly apologized.

"Hmph! Seeing as you are the master's servant, I will spare you," the thousand-year Blood Ginseng immediately puffed up with vigor and authority.

"Oh! The moment I soften up, you start throwing your weight around. Do you believe that I won't give you another 'Windmill Spin'?" Xiao Lian was furious and questioned harshly.

At the mention of "Windmill Spin," the thousand-year Blood Ginseng broke out into a cold sweat and hurriedly apologized, "Sister Xiao Lian, I am sorry, I was wrong, please spare me."

The turn of events was so absurd that it left everyone present holding back laughter and tears.

"Hmph! That's more like it," Xiao Lian was finally appeased, having achieved the deterrent effect she wanted.

After putting the thousand-year Blood Ginseng back onto the sickbed, Xiao Lian turned her gaze to the extra woman in the sickroom.

This woman's clothing was of the same ancient style as her brother's, and in terms of appearance and grace, she did not fall short of any of her sisters-in-law present.

Curious at the sight, she asked, "Brother! Who is this?"

"This is my senior sister!" Lin Yifan answered.

"Senior sister? When did you get another senior sister?" Xiao Lian questioned.

"It happened when I went in search of the thousand-year Blood Ginseng," Lin Yifan replied.

"Is that so? Why do I feel like she's my fourth sister-in-law?" Xiao Lian's face revealed a sly smile, then she stared intently into Xiao Fang's eyes to gauge her reaction.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jiajia, An Qi, and Su Qingqing were immediately startled and then turned their gazes toward Lin Yifan, expecting a reasonable explanation.

The possibility mentioned by Xiao Lian wasn't out of the question; they all knew that Lin Yifan was enamored with beauty, and he loved every woman he met. So facing such a beautiful lady, they really feared that Lin Yifan would hardly be able to restrain his inner desires.

The thousand-year Blood Ginseng was aware of the secret between Lin Yifan and Xiao Fang, but the situation was rather complicated, and it dared not voice its thoughts, lest it should be killed by Lin Yifan without even knowing how it happened.

On the other hand, Xiao Fang was momentarily taken aback by this remark. She hadn't expected Lin Yifan's sister to have such sharp insight and intuition, being able to sense that she was Lin Yifan's girlfriend just by hunch. This really shocked her.

"What are you talking about? How would I dare to entertain any ideas about my senior sister? If I were to entertain any, I would need the consent of Jiajia and the others. Besides, my senior sister doesn't have any interest in me at all, right, senior sister?" Lin Yifan sent a covert signal, conveying his inner message.

Xiao Fang quickly understood what Lin Yifan meant and then replied, "Right, sisters-in-law, don't think too much; there is nothing romantic going on between me and my junior brother."

"Yifan, I must warn you not to disrespect your senior sister and confuse the relationships. She is your senior sister; you should respect her, okay?" Jiajia cautioned and reminded him.

She couldn't handle a third person; if Lin Yifan brought in another, she would truly go mad.

"I understand!" Lin Yifan was sweating profusely, not expecting Jiajia's reaction to be so intense, which made him quite embarrassed. After all, he had been intimate with Xiao Fang on the plane and couldn't shake off that responsibility.

However, fortunately, Xiao Fang wasn't insisting on joining them, or else he really would have been caught in a tough spot right now.

On the other side, Xiao Fang also hadn't expected Zhou Jiajia to mind so much; it seemed joining this big family would be quite difficult for her.

"Brother! Why does your senior sister want to come back with you? Is it to meet the parents?" Xiao Lian asked curiously.

She still didn't believe Lin Yifan's explanation. Even though Lin Yifan had already defended himself earnestly, there were still many suspicious points. Moreover, she had an intuition that the woman of outstanding beauty in front of her had something to do with her brother.
