Xiao Yun said he understood. "Erlong, you really have thought this through."
Turning to Dai Xiaozhao, he said, "Xiaozhao, go back and cultivate and study first."
Dai Xiaozhao immediately bowed and left the meeting hall.
Only Liu Erlong and Xiao Yun remained seated across from each other in the hall.
Xiao Yun patted the sofa beside him, signaling for Liu Erlong to come over.
Liu Erlong glanced around. Only after confirming that no one was there did she rise and sit beside Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun wrapped an arm around her waist and asked about the manor's most important business. "Erlong, how many pills do you have left here?"
Liu Erlong put her arms around Xiao Yun in return and rested her face against his chest. After thinking for a while, she said, "The remaining pills can last another half month."
Hearing that, Xiao Yun pondered for a moment and muttered to himself, "With so little in reserve, that won't do."
He immediately asked about the medicinal herbs. "Has the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect been delivering the materials for refining pills on time?"
Liu Erlong nodded directly. "The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect delivers the medicinal herbs every month, on time and in the proper quantities. I've stored them all in the warehouse of the Pill Refining Room."
Xiao Yun grasped Liu Erlong's hand, deeply grateful. "It's fortunate to have you, Erlong. Otherwise, things at home would have become a complete mess."
After the two shared a tender moment, Xiao Yun finally said, "For the next half month, I'll stay in the Pill Refining Room and focus on refining pills until the supply is replenished. Set aside any unimportant letters and visitors for now. I'll deal with them after I come out."
Liu Erlong did not ask further. She
