Chapter 159: Repairing Xiaoxiao’s Corneas

Mo Han took some time to visit Chengdu once again, where he successfully acquired the remaining two rare medicinal herbs for the Peiyuan Pill at an auction.

Upon returning to Qiancheng, he immediately set about refining the Peiyuan Pill.

Although alchemy was a skill from his past life, refining it now was still an effortless task for him. Especially since the Lesser Peiyuan Pill was merely a common elixir in the cultivation world and required very little effort to make.

The so-called Lesser Peiyuan Pill, as the name suggests, is an elixir used by cultivators to consolidate their foundation and nourish their origin, greatly improving their physical constitution.

Generally, ordinary people transformed by the Lesser Peiyuan Pill can become martial artists even with mediocre talent. Without such a transformation of their physique, no matter how hard an ordinary person tries, it is extremely difficult to cultivate inner strength. Without inner strength, one cannot be considered a true martial artist.

The reason Mo Han had previously delayed using the snow ginseng to nourish his daughter's body was because it was one of the primary ingredients required for refining the Lesser Peiyuan Pill.

After taking the Lesser Peiyuan Pill, Xiao Xiao's once frail body improved significantly, and her physical condition underwent a massive transformation.

Following that, Mo Han and Li An'an took her to the hospital for surgery to have her corneas successfully repaired. The corneas, preserved at the cost of five million, were completely undamaged and intact, and the operation was a resounding success.

For the past few days, Mo Han had not gone to the company, choosing instead to stay at the hospital and take care of Xiao Xiao.

Five days later, when the stitches were removed and her eye patch came off to reveal the light once more, Xiao Xiao sang and danced with overwhelming joy and excitement.

The couple then decided to take their daughter to the amusement park for a wonderful day out. With Li Xiande managing the company, there wouldn't be any issues anyway.

They soon arrived at the amusement park. Mo Han parked the car and went to buy three tickets. Children entered for free, but both adults required full-fare tickets.

At the entrance, seeing a stall selling Ultraman toys, Xiao Xiao ran over eagerly. Mo Han bought one for her, and she held her new Ultraman with utter delight.

Watching their daughter's joyful expression, both parents wore warm, affectionate smiles.

Upon entering the amusement park, they suddenly spotted a young couple walking ahead, holding hands with a little girl. Xiao Xiao let go of Mo Han's hand and hurried over.

"Liu Xiaoqin, look! This is the Ultraman my dad just bought for me," Xiao Xiao said happily, catching up to the other girl.

"Yours is so ugly, it doesn't look good at all." Though the little girl spoke with disdain, she actually felt quite envious inside.

"My, my, isn't this the freeloader's daughter? Your dad is a good-for-nothing who brings shame upon all men. And you're just a little good-for-nothing yourself. Stay away from our Qinqin!"

At that moment, the woman holding the little girl looked down on Xiao Xiao with contempt.

"My dad is not a good-for-nothing, and neither am I!"

Xiao Xiao glared at the woman, her face flushed with anger, while tears of grievance welled up and constantly swirled in her eyes.

"My, such a haughty attitude for someone so young. Unfortunately, no matter how arrogant you are, it won't change the reality that you and your useless father are nothing but good-for-nothings," the woman sneered.

"Alright, why are you bickering with a little kid?"

The man beside her glanced at the little girl and said, "Xiaoqin, stay away from Li Xiaoqin from now on. You must remember, you are the princess of the Liu family, and your status is noble. Poor dirtbags like Li Xiaoqin have a low social standing and don't deserve to play with you, understand?"

"Dad, I understand."

The little girl nodded obediently, then looked at Xiao Xiao with a haughty air, saying, "Li Xiaoqin, did you hear that? I am a princess, and you're a dirtbag. You are not allowed to come and play with me anymore."

Xiao Xiao stared blankly at the little girl, tears shimmering in her eyes. Whether out of sadness or anger, her small body trembled slightly.

"Xiao Xiao, no matter what sad things you encounter, you must persevere. Rather bleed than shed a single tear, do you understand?"

Mo Han picked Xiao Xiao up, looked into her eyes, and said, "Remember this: they say a man does not shed tears easily, but the same goes for a daughter. Those who cry easily are cowards."

"Mm."

Xiao Xiao wiped away her tears, nodded, and said, "Dad, I won't cry anymore."

"Good. That's Daddy's good girl."

Mo Han nodded in satisfaction and said, "Trust Daddy. You are not a good-for-nothing, nor are you a poor dirtbag. You are a true princess, and when you grow up, Daddy will give you the whole world."

"Daddy, am I really a princess?" Xiao Xiao asked, looking expectantly into Mo Han's eyes.

Mo Han nodded firmly. "Mm. Not only are you our family's little princess, but you will be a little princess respected by the entire world!"

"Daddy, pinky promise with me and then I'll believe you." With that, she extended her finger, wanting to make a pinky swear with Mo Han.

Mo Han smiled slightly, extending his finger to hook hers.

"Pinky swear, cross my heart, for a hundred years it won't change."

Xiao Xiao said with a devout expression, pressing her thumb against Mo Han's. She smiled brightly and happily.

"A princess? More like an ugly duckling," the woman nearby sneered, watching the affectionate father and daughter.

Mo Han turned around, a flicker of anger already rising in his eyes.

"God showered the world with wisdom, but he held an umbrella over you. How pathetic," Mo Han sneered coldly. He truly didn't want to bother with this woman; anyone who could bicker with a small child was mentally deficient.

"You good-for-nothing! How dare you call me mentally deficient? Do you even know who I am?" Hearing this, the woman instantly flew into a rage, placing her hands on her hips and glaring fiercely at Mo Han with a face full of fury.

"What does who you are have to do with me?"

Mo Han let out a cold laugh and said, "I only know that there is a mentally deficient person standing right in front of me."
