Some time after Wang Shengyuan drove away from Liujiaba Village, Deng Yong noticed the vibration of his cell phone. After seeing the name of the caller, he hesitated for a while before choosing to answer the call.

"Brother Yong, are you with my dad?" Cao Jinshi's voice was a little urgent, "I never got through when I called him."

After hearing her hurried words, Deng Yong couldn't help but frown slightly, "Master is fine. The operation tonight is basically over, and he is now doing the finishing work."

"Jinshi, has your cold gotten worse?" He could sense that something was wrong with Cao Jinshi's state, and immediately became worried.

Cao Jinshi obviously breathed a sigh of relief. When she heard Deng Yong's question, she wrinkled her nose and said coquettishly: "Hey, Hezhu, you still care about me?"

Deng Yong reached out and scratched his head, looking slightly embarrassed. He was silent for a moment before saying, "I'm sorry."

"You can tell me you're sorry when we meet again!" Cao Jinshi was obviously in a lighter mood, and her tone did not sound angry at all.

"Are you still in Liujiaba Village now?" She asked first, and then said, "I'm on my way to Liuluo County right now, so you have to think about how to explain to me when we meet later. "

Deng Yong was slightly stunned and couldn't help but laugh. "I'm already on my way back to Yanbei District. Maybe I'll meet you halfway."

"Ah? How about I drive a little further and find a gas station or something to wait for you?" Cao Jinshi coughed several times as he spoke.

"Okay, you quickly find a place to park and rest for a while. Don't hold on."

Deng Yong responded without thinking, reminding Cao Jinshi to concentrate on driving before hanging up the phone.

He slowly closed his eyes, recalling the surprise and lightness in Cao Jinshi's tone, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth a little.

He was completely aware of Cao Jinshi's attitude, and it didn't change much because he learned that he was addicted to drugs.

If Cao Jinshi chose to stay with him out of sympathy or pity, Deng Yong would not be happy.

But now that the matter was over, he would not let the other party down again.

Even if Jiang Ran cannot completely eradicate the influence of drugs, Deng Yong is confident that he can survive the withdrawal period and resist the temptation to relapse.

Most of the few people who never relapse for life have one thing in common: either they are so heartbroken that they give up everything, or they have someone or something that they care about very much.

Cao Jinshi is not only an extremely important person, but also his salvation.

After Deng Yong figured out all this, his mental state obviously changed greatly.

Ah Cheng, who was sitting next to him, felt it most clearly, but he did not ask any questions. He only stretched out his hand and patted the other person's shoulder to express comfort.

Jiang Ran on the side did not observe the change in Deng Yong's expression, but the corners of his eyes trembled inexplicably.

With the five senses enhanced by the Lingxi Technique connecting heaven and earth, he felt the changes in Deng Yong's aura very deeply.

If Deng Yong was filled with a sense of twilight before, then after hanging up the phone with Cao Jinshi, it became a sense of vigor and vitality.

No one could see the glimmer in Jiang Ran's eyes. When he sensed the transformation of Deng Yong's life force field, it was like brushing away a layer of dust from his soul, and the affinity between his spiritual skills and heaven and earth was slightly improved.

Jiang Ran knew very well the reason why this happened, and it was inseparable from the Daoyun-level elixir he had taken previously.

It was purely a coincidence that he could glimpse the changes in Deng Yong's life force field.

First of all, the degree of transformation of Deng Yong's spiritual light is very exaggerated. It transforms from twilight to vitality almost instantly. This kind of speed and degree of transformation should logically take a long period of time.

Secondly, the influence of the Daoyun-level elixir on him has not completely dissipated. Otherwise, if he wants to directly see the changes in other people's life force fields, he must at least reach the realm of elixir formation.

Only by seeing with loyalty can one not be stuck in things or trapped in the heart, but can perceive the most fundamental characteristics of other people's lives.

Jiang Ran didn't expect that when he met Deng Yong again tonight, he would get some unexpected gains due to the transformation of his life force field.

"Deng Yong, I have a question. Can you answer it?"

Due to the fact that the other party inadvertently had a positive influence on him, Jiang Ran's expression remained indifferent when he asked, but there was still some room in his words.

Deng Yong was still in a daze. When he heard Jiang Ran's sudden voice, he didn't react at all. It wasn't until Ah Cheng touched him with his elbow that he quickly responded: "Mr. Jiang, please."

When he replied, he couldn't help but sit upright. This subconscious behavior was not even noticed by himself.

In fact, it was difficult for Deng Yong to describe the feeling when facing Jiang Ran. From being treated as an equal when they first met on the winding mountain road, to seeing someone like the second young lady of the Yan family with low eyebrows and submissive eyes, it was difficult to describe the shock in words.

It's just that he has an extraordinary identity and background. The problem is that there are various signs that the opponent's force is extremely high. With multiple reasons combined, his behavior of lowering his profile is easy to understand.

"Before Acheng asked me to help you get rid of your drug addiction, or before the phone call you just answered, what was your original plan?" Jiang Ran nodded lightly and immediately asked a seemingly simple question.

Although Yan Yuqing did not turn her head, her ears obviously twitched a few times, and she obviously didn't understand why Jiang Ran asked this question.

When Deng Yong heard this question, his brows visibly knitted together. He thought for a long time before carefully choosing his words and said, "I don't know, I might find a remote and uninhabited place to live in, or I might go abroad."

Jiang Ran went over what he said in his mind, and asked with a playful expression, "Do you still have thoughts of seeking death?"

"To tell you the truth, when I first became addicted to drugs, I did have thoughts of suicide." Deng Yong seemed not surprised that Jiang Ran would have such speculation, and explained with a wry smile.

"But then I thought that the task assigned by the captain had not been completed yet, and there was no explanation from Jinshi, so this thought faded away."

The tone in which he mentioned these topics at the moment was rather self-deprecating, not serious at all.

Jiang Ran couldn't help but frown slightly when he heard this. He seemed to have fallen into a misunderstanding.

Deng Yong's life force field has indeed changed from "twilight energy" to "vital energy", but this twilight energy does not seem to appear due to the thought of seeking death, and the corresponding vitality has nothing to do with the desire for life.

In his previous life, he had not done much research on other people's life force fields in the world of cultivation, and now he could only rely on his own vision to make inferences.

"What were you thinking about after making the call?" Jiang Ran frowned for a moment and then relaxed, asking a new question.

"I'm thinking that no matter whether Mr. Jiang can help me get rid of my drug addiction, for Jinshi, I will never lose this time."

Deng Yong didn't feel embarrassed and answered solemnly and resolutely.

Jiang Ran thought for a moment and said tentatively: "It seems to others that your drug addiction cannot be completely eliminated, but for me, it is just a matter of effort."

After saying this, although he saw surprise on Deng Yong's face, he sensed the other party's life force field and did not notice any changes.
