Rachel sighed, but she knew her daughter best and that Quinn wasn't kidding.If Charlie were to fall to his mortal enemies, the only reason Quinn would want to continue living would be for her and her husband.If they were gone, too, Quinn would break.Hence, she asked Quinn, "Well, what did Charlie say?""He tried to talk me out of it, but I just ignored him," Quinn replied, shrugging. "I told him very clearly that I wouldn't bother living if he and you guys were gone… Unless he had a kid with me.""Well done!" Rachel exclaimed, giving her a huge thumbs-up. "That's the way to do it—only being direct works on him. We were too considerate, so he was free to dilly-dally! If we let him, he'd just keep dragging things out without ever making a choice!"Pausing, she then pressed, "So? What did he say?'Quinn lied, "He said he would consider it… That's why I think he won't keep dragging things out after I made myself so clear. He'll definitely give us an answer."Hugging Rachel's arm

Pausing, Ashley sighed. "I was the one who pushed to engage Charlie with Quinn. I truly love that girl, and she's been like a daughter to me ever since she was born. Yule and Rachel used to love Charlie, too, which was why I suggested the engagement when they grew up."I've been told that such old-fashioned engagements shouldn't continue in the new age, or it'd look like we're back in feudal times… but I just think that there are some things that are just so perfect that a parent must fight for it despite their child's opinions."That was when Ashley sighed. "The Qing Eliminating Society reached out to Curtis and me on multiple occasions. I was not even worried that they would come for us… only that they would send Scholars to infiltrate Charlie's inner circle."Mrs. Sun's expression stiffened at the mention of Scholars, as she knew how astounding the Scholars could be. The Qing Eliminating Society had groomed each Scholar since they were children, all for the express purpose of '

Of course, there was the option of cosmetic surgery, but such things would never last long, and the side effects were permanent. It was why people always pointed out permanent disfigurement as a reason not to do it.On the other hand, Charlie's Rejuvenation Pill could make her younger by at least twenty years, making it the best cosmetic surgery bar none.Still, Rachel played it cool at the thought that the pills were worth trillions. It was so expensive that just yearning for it could well be considered overstepping.Yule shook his head as he said, "I'm already exceedingly grateful that you came to save my life before, Charlie… How could we take something so precious on top of that? Just save them for yourself, and I'm sure you can use them in the future!"Charlie shook his head, his tone solemn. "The Rejuvenation Pill is only expensive because of scarcity. After all, there was just one available at that auction, so it was only natural that the price inflated so ridiculously."No

Yule and Rachel traded glances, their eyes wide in excitement as they took the pills at the same time.They were a happy couple, and taking a Rejuvenation Pill each meant they'd spend decades more in each other's company.Their appearances changed dramatically right after they took the pills, too.While Rachel had always maintained her beauty and looked hardly fifty, she was now positively radiant with the Rejuvenation Pill. Her youthful appearance made her look closer to Quinn, too, and they looked more like sisters.Most importantly, they felt as though they had shed dozens of pounds. Aging was inevitable considering their years, and it always felt like rolling down a downhill slope. But with the Rejuvenation Pill, they seemed to be twenty years younger, their creaky joints and difficulty in moving fading right away.And it was so obvious in Rachel that Yule was gaping at his wife, not knowing that he had suddenly transformed into looking thirtyish, too.Just seeing each other'

Jeremiah himself had been dreaming of taking a Rejuvenation Pill, but he had only gotten half of it at an auction despite staying on his best behavior around Charlie for so long.And he was already so old!On the other hand, Yule and Rachel were only in their fifties. What right did they have to get a full pill each?It was so unfair and unnecessary! It was as though he were a starving man, but Charlie only made sure his stomach was half full.On the other hand, Yule and Rachel never had to go hungry, yet Charlie stuffed them silly anyway!The thought left him moody, but he would never dare let it show in front of Charlie, instead smiling and greeting Yule and Rachel. "Oh, you kids really are in such good health—you're more like teenagers than a middle-aged couple."Carmen was envious too, hurrying to smile at Rachel, "Come, Rachel—what's your secret? You have to share it with me… I've spent a lot on health cosmetics myself, but it's a far cry from the results you're getting."
