Chen Baojia, on the other hand, was so overwhelmed by anger that her fingers trembled. She persistently pointed at Qiao Mu for an extended period, but ultimately succumbed to the intensity of her emotions, collapsing to the ground with a loud thud. A trickle of blood emerged from her nose, a visible consequence of her fit of rage.
Observing this scene, the composed Qiao Mu shook her head. âThe internal flame is potent; thus, it is crucial to regulate oneâs emotions. As the ancients wisely noted, concealing emotions on oneâs face is not mere exaggeration; it serves a purpose in maintaining well-being.â
âIn interactions with others, one must avoid arrogance, impatience, and anger, as they can severely impact oneâs health,â the stoic figure stated impassively. âMaintaining indifference in all actions is essential. Personally, I adopt an indifferent demeanorâwhether in my everyday activities or when angered. Indifference in every aspect of life contributes to a long and healthy existence.â
âHahahahahahaha!â Suddenly, Qi Xuanxuan burst into uncontrollable laughter, squatting to the side and slapping her thigh in amusement.
Her laughter triggered a cascade of hilarity among those present, creating a scene of joyous disorder.
The stoic facade Qiao Mu displayed proved too comical for Qi Xuanxuan to resist mimicking. She exaggeratedly imitated the indifference, the impassive facial expressions, and the overall lack of emotion. The mimicry reached a point of such indifference that⊠well, it was just too much.
Coincidentally, Mo Lian, Duan Yue, and Feng Chen returned at that moment. Seeing everyone laughing uproariously, they couldnât help but feel perplexed.
Lady Qiaoqiao, standing alone with her expressionless face, wore a look of bewilderment.
Qiao Mu had been imparting valuable medical knowledge and advising Miss Chen on the detrimental effects of constant anger, particularly for women.
Why, then, were they all reacting with excessive amusement?
âWhatâs so amusing about that?â Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao wondered aloud, expressing her complete lack of comprehension regarding othersâ logical reasoning.
Mo Lian observed his wife, Xiaoxiao, standing alone, watching everyone with an expressionless demeanor. She seemed out of sync with the laughter and merriment around her.
His mouth twitched involuntarily, and he hastened to walk over, gently pulling the petite figure aside. âWhatâs the matter?â
His inquiry bore a question mark on his face, his way of seeking an explanation.
Xiaoxiao clearly failed to comprehend the source of everyoneâs laughter!
âThe pursuit of medicine is not a subject for jest! Theyâre all grinning foolishly, grinning foolishly, with no understanding of the seriousness of it!â Xiaoxiao flicked her sleeve in annoyance and turned to leave in a huff.
Duan Yue couldnât help but feel exasperated. Scanning the scene, he grabbed Little Fatty and inquired, âWhat happened?â
Little Fatty, still catching his breath from laughter, suppressed his grin and narrated the incident. He concluded, âQiaoqiao mentioned that Miss Chen was burning with anger. Little did she know that Miss Chen was angry because of her.â
âShe even instructed others on the virtue of indifference.â Qi Xuanxuan squatted on the ground with a sly grin. âJust mimic her.â
âHahaha, I canât stop laughing. Let me keep grinning for a bit longer.â
Feng Chen chuckled, saying, âI adore it when my Qiaoqiao riles people up. Iâll check on my Qiaoqiao. Sheâs so adorableâŠâ
Mo Lian rolled his eyes but didnât follow suit. Instead, he approached the Holy Son, whose eyebrows were still twitching, and suggested, âIt might be more prudent for us to depart at dawn tomorrow.â
The Holy Son, still in a daze from the little stoicâs indifference, nodded with an emotionless response.
âJudging by the looks of it, the weather tomorrow doesnât seem promising,â Mo Lian remarked. âThe initial stretch of the journey involves low-lying valleys, with steep slopes on both sides. The rocky mountains are piled with a significant amount of soil.â
