Chapter 1220: Lovely Young Man Lin Yuan
Lin Yuan did not say anything else when he promised to give Sun Ningxiang the Moon Dew Revival Pill. This meant that Lin Yuan did not expect anything in return from Sun Ningxiang.
Given that Lin Yuan was the Moon Empress’ disciple, there was nothing Sun Ningxiang had that Lin Yuan would want.
Sun Ningxiang choked up, and her eyes blurred over with tears.
As tears cascaded down her cheeks, grat.i.tude, preciousness, delight, and vestiges of fear gripped her and prevented her from being able to utter the thanks she badly wanted to convey.
At this moment, Lin Yuan said, “I’m going to hang up now. I’ll call you again later. Although spirit qi professionals in a trapped state can last for about five to six hours, your grandmother has other hidden injuries. It’s highly unlikely that she’ll be able to last for as long as five to six hours. I will contact Ostrich Logistics now and ask to express-deliver the Moon Dew Revival Pill to you within two hours.”
The moment Lin Yuan finished speaking, he heard more noise coming from Sun Ningxiang’s end.
Lin Yuan’s anxious tone had touched Sun Ningxiang again. She was so overwhelmed with emotion that she could not help but curl her lips slightly.
After Lin Yuan hung up, he immediately contacted his dedicated courier, Ah Neng.
Once he explained the situation to her, Ah Neng guaranteed that she would reach the entrance of Lin Yuan’s mansion in less than ten minutes and deliver the package to Sun Ningxiang in Flower City within half an hour.
After he put down the phone, he hurriedly headed over to the mansion entrance.
In less than three minutes, Ah Neng rushed over.
She was wearing Ostrich Logistics’ standard uniform, and she removed her hat with a smile when she saw Lin Yuan. With her hat in her hands, she waved at him.
Her short red and purple hair shone with liveliness under the afternoon sunlight.
Although she still looked like a rookie, she never made a mistake with Lin Yuan’s deliveries other than the occasional incident of leaving the order forms with him.
Lin Yuan solemnly told her again about how urgent this package was.
Ah Neng received the package and gave him a thumbs up after glancing at the order number.
...
A glowing silver sh.e.l.l appeared in her hand.
She recited the information on the order form toward the sh.e.l.l, and the sh.e.l.l ripped a rift in the s.p.a.ce in front of Ah Neng.
Ah Neng waved at Lin Yuan for a final time before disappearing into the rift.
Previously, she would always leave Lin Yuan’s sight before proceeding with her delivery as it was one of Ostrich Logistics’ regulations.
However, she had heard how urgent Lin Yuan made this package out to be and decided to do away with the regulations.
This was the first time that Lin Yuan witnessed Ostrich Logistics’ method of traveling between Radiance Federation within three hours.
According to the information he had received from the Moon Empress, he knew that other factions could not replicate this power of Ostrich Logistics because the Hollow Crystal Sh.e.l.lfishes used by the couriers came from the s.p.a.cetime Elder’s Spatial Mother Sh.e.l.lfish’s ability.
After he sent off the Moon Dew Revival Pill, Lin Yuan called Sun Ningxiang again and said softly, “I’ve sent out the Moon Dew Revival Pill. It should reach you in half an hour. Don’t worry.”
As Sun Ningxiang continued to choke back sobs, Lin Yuan said comfortingly, “Don’t cry. Your grandmother will be worried if she regains consciousness and sees you crying.”
Surprisingly, Sun Ningxiang started to sob even harder.
Lin Yuan was left at a loss. He scratched the back of his head and tried to come up with a way to comfort her.

Unfortunately, the only thing he could come up with was to urge her not to worry.
As the direct descendant of Condense Fairy Orchard, who had a.s.sumed leaders.h.i.+p of the faction long ago, she knew that she could not wear her true emotions on her sleeve.
As she had been holding up Condense Fairy Orchard on her own all these years, she was stressed with even occurrences that were related to Condense Fairy Orchard.
Things had only taken a turn for the better when she met Lin Yuan on Star Web. It was also Lin Yuan who had given her the Muscle Growth Camellia that gave her hope that her grandmother could be healed.
When Sun Ningxiang had been targeted at the Guard Ye Banquet, those from the other factions all mocked her. With her jaw clenched and at a momentary loss, Lin Yuan had supported her.
Now, Lin Yuan was selflessly giving her a Moon Dew Revival Pill to save not only her grandmother’s life but also the entire Condense Fairy Orchard.
Lin Yuan allowed Sun Ningxiang to know what it felt like to have someone to rely on.
As such, it was only with Lin Yuan that she could cry and vent without restraint. At that moment, she was completely vulnerable.
She felt that saying thanks was not enough to express her grat.i.tude for the immense help that Lin Yuan had given her.
Without Lin Yuan’s Moon Dew Revival Pill, they would be nothing but a sh.e.l.l of a top faction that did not have any thearch-cla.s.s experts guarding them. Regardless of her relations.h.i.+p with Lin Yuan, the other top factions would definitely come after them.
Sun Ningxiang glanced at her unconscious grandmother and silently decided that once her grandmother awoke, she would suggest to her grandmother that they place Condense Fairy Orchard under Sky City’s wing and become a branch of Sky City.

She felt that this was the only way to repay all that Lin Yuan had done for Condense Fairy Orchard.
As she listened to Lin Yuan struggle to comfort her, a foreign familiar rose within her. It was like the romantic and dizzying blending of midsummer with the sky. It was like fireflies dancing across a crystal clear lake.
Sun Ningxiang was like a fanatic that swung a fan amidst the fireflies. The more she swung the fan, the deeper into her obsession she fell.

While Sun Ningxiang was deep in thought, Lin Yuan did not sense that anything was odd.
He regarded her as his friend, and it was only natural that he helped out his friend in her time of need.
It did not just apply to Sun Ningxiang. He would do the same for Long Tao, Li Xuan, Zong Ze, Gu Lang, and Gao Feng as well
