Chapter 194: Manufacturing Incense

Chapter 194

Chi Yan couldn't do it, in the end he could only rub against her. He didn't believe that Yangyang had thrown it away; she must have hidden it somewhere.

Early the next morning, Chu Yang was still sleeping. It was particularly nice to sleep when the weather was cold. Then she heard a rustling sound.

Chu Yang opened her eyes and saw Chi Yan, shirtless, crouching by the cabinet looking for something. "What are you doing?"

Chi Yan turned his head and smiled at Chu Yang, then held up something in his hand. "I found it!"

Chu Yang: ...

Chi Yan immediately opened the package. "Shall we continue what we were doing last night?"

Chu Yang: !!!

Had this man been thinking about this all night? Early in the morning, Chu Yang was forced to break a sweat.

After they finished, Chi Yan kissed her forehead. "How was it? Am I amazing, wife?"

Chu Yang slapped his bottom. "Don't talk." If you don't discipline him for a day, he'll be up to no good.

"Oh."

In the following days, Chi Yan wanted to make love again, but he couldn't. They were both busy with studies and work, and every time he got home, Chu Yang was already asleep.

Moreover, there was a particularly difficult problem to solve recently, so Chi Yan was always working overtime, even on weekends.

On the weekend, while eating, Chu Yang was watching TV and eating fruit in the living room, while Chi Yan was frowning at his computer in the study.

After a while, he rubbed his temples and walked out of the study. He came to Chu Yang's side, lay down with his head on her thigh, hugged her waist, and buried his face in her belly. "Honey, I'm so tired."

Chu Yang reached out to massage his head. "What's wrong? Have you been too busy lately?"

Chi Yan mumbled, "Mm. So many things, so annoying. Yangyang~ Honey, my head hurts."

Chu Yang used her witchcraft to give him a massage. Soon, Chi Yan fell asleep and even started snoring. He was indeed too tired. After all, he was still young but under so much pressure. Chu Yang stroked his hair. Fortunately, his hair was still quite thick, with no signs of baldness.

Chu Yang picked up the "Study of Spiritual Medicine" beside her. Just in case, she wanted to see if there were any medicines that could treat hair loss.

After a while, Chu Yang didn't find any medicine for hair loss, but she discovered a formula for making an incense that could calm the mind. Since Chi Yan felt annoyed and had a headache, Chu Yang thought this could help.

It was called "Mind-Calming Incense," which could focus the mind and calm the spirit. No matter how irritated a person was, they could immediately calm down.

Chu Yang looked at the recipe... In a word, expensive.

Chi Yan wanted to help, but after getting his hand slapped, he didn't dare touch anything again. "Go out and don't disturb me. Otherwise, you can't sleep in bed with me tonight."

"...Alright."

...

Recently, a client from East City came for an inspection, and Chi Yan had been entertaining them.

Even on Saturday, he couldn't rest. He drove them to play golf.

He swung the golf club, and the ball went into the hole...

President Su patted Chi Yan's shoulder. "Indeed, young and accomplished. Mr. Chi, you play golf well."

"President Su, you flatter me."

"Haha, no need to be modest. If I had a daughter, I'd want her to marry you. Unfortunately, I only have a son, and he's a disobedient brat."

"Oh? How old is President Su's son?"

"He's already in high school, right at the rebellious age. The teachers often call to say he's skipping classes. It's really worrying me to death. By the way, this time I came to Jing City, apart from business, the main reason is that my wife has had a persistent headache problem. It's probably because she caught a chill during pregnancy. Since then, she gets headaches from time to time. A headache isn't a disease, but when it hits, it's unbearable."

"I've consulted all the specialists in East City, but nothing has worked. So I came to Jing City to see if Mr. Chi could recommend any experts."

Chi Yan thought for a moment. "I'll ask around and then recommend someone to you, President Su."

"Good, good, thank you for your trouble."

"It's no trouble. By the way, about that project in Qing Province... shall we..."

...

Except for when she was in class, Chu Yang stayed at home experimenting. Chi Yan wasn't allowed to go in and look, but he occasionally smelled some strange odors. Sometimes it was a pleasant floral or woody scent, other times it was a pungent and nauseating smell.

"Yangyang, what exactly are you doing in there?"

Chu Yang: "You'll see when I'm done. It's something good. I'll give the first one to you as soon as it's ready."

Chi Yan was pleased to hear this. "Alright then, I'll consider it a surprise."

Chu Yang spent another two or three days working on it, and finally managed to create the incense. It was a bit rough, but the effects should be as intended.

That evening, when Chi Yan returned home, he caught a whiff of a unique fragrance in the living room. Originally feeling irritated about company matters, his heart suddenly became calm.

Then he noticed an incense burner in the living room, with wisps of smoke spiraling upwards. The scent filling the room was likely coming from this burner.
