Chapter 40-Part 2

She pretended to have starry eyes and showed a joyful expression: “The Yun family has so many precious herbs! We searched the entire planet before but couldn’t find the materials I needed. Since only his family has them, we can only go to his house. I promised to treat Yun Tian, and he immediately agreed to give me the herbs.”

“What kind of medicine do you want to make for me?” Yan Hao continued to ask.

Tang Xin suddenly froze.

Why would he know!!

Fear, panic, and unease surrounded her heart, and she could hardly maintain the joyful expression on her face.

Yan Hao sighed.

The master wasn’t someone who would waver in her decisions just for some precious herbs.

If the master coveted the herbs and decided to abandon her principles, she could have changed her mind when they were browsing the Yun’s warehouse. Why wait until now?

Based on his understanding of the master, they were only forced to go to Yun’s house by Butler Su. If the Yun family didn’t apologize, the master would never come willingly.

What was impossible had happened now, and Yan Hao could only think of one reason: for him.

The master had harbored admiration for him for a long time. She had even said that she was becoming stupid, clearly to please him and sacrifice herself.

To leave him behind and run to Yun’s house alone, wasn’t it to keep him from knowing the content of the conversation between the master and Yun Tian?

Yan Hao bitterly smiled. If the master wanted to impress him in this way, it was undoubtedly successful.

Such a master made him feel heartache.

Tang Xin still wore a bewildered expression, with various thoughts swirling in her mind, leaving her frozen in place.

Yan Hao rubbed Tang Xin’s head and said seriously, “Don’t do this next time; it makes me uncomfortable.”

Doing so much, all in the hope that he would like her.

If he complied, then that was it.

“I’ll go pack.”

Tang Xin held her head, still bewildered, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.

She had just shown him a little kindness, and he dared to take advantage of her like this? Was her head something he could touch casually?

The next morning, the two of them headed to Yun’s house with their luggage.

Along the way, Tang Xin’s face was gloomy, no longer lively as usual.

Yan Hao sighed softly and comforted her. “I’m not blaming you.”

Just don’t do the same thing again next time.

Upon hearing this, Tang Xin’s complexion darkened even more.

She thought she had gathered herbs to make genetic refining agents for him, and he took advantage of the opportunity to touch her head. Was that fair?

“Let a young girl in her twenties be in charge of your treatment? Master Yun Tian, please forgive me; I can’t agree.” Yun Gui strode into the bamboo house, eager to speak.

She was in her fifties this year, but her face looked like she was barely in her forties, showing no signs of aging. Her voice was full of vitality and spirit.

She was the exclusive pharmacist for the Yun family.

When Yun Tian’s mother was pregnant, she was sent specifically to take care of her.

She not only witnessed Yun Tian’s birth but also watched him grow up slowly.

Unfortunately, despite her outstanding medical skills, she couldn’t cure Yun Tian’s strange illness.

For this reason, she read extensively and searched through ancient books, gaining a lot of knowledge, but still couldn’t find a solution.

Today, Yun Gui heard that Yun Tian had found a skilled pharmacist who might have a chance to cure his strange illness.

To be honest, she was deeply unwilling to believe it.

She had lived for more than fifty years, devoted to the art of medicine. If even she couldn’t cure the strange illness, who else had the ability to do so?

Yun Gui really wanted to see this person.

When she found Butler Su and asked, Yun Gui was immediately angry.

A girl in her twenties who couldn’t cure the illness first used the herbs in the warehouse, then moved into the Yun family to freeload?

Either one alone would make her feel uneasy, but together, Yun Gui couldn’t help but think more.

It was probably a scam.

Had she read all the famous medical books? Did she know the common herbs? Had she ever treated anyone?

Yun Gui found it quite funny. Even if she was trying to scam someone, she should at least find an old man with a white beard. What was the point of finding a young person in their twenties?

Such low-quality deception.

She didn’t expect that not only were her medical skills inadequate, but her deception skills were also so poor. Yun Gui had no hope for the newcomer.

If it weren’t for Master Yun Tian already allowing the newcomer to stay and preparing rooms for her, she would have asked Master Yuntian to kick the scammer out.

“Aunt Gui, Miss Tang is a truly capable person,” Yun Tian said helplessly.

If it were someone else, he could suppress them forcibly without any objection.

But he had been taken care of by Yun Gui since he was a child, and they had a deep relationship. Yun Tian couldn’t ignore Yun Gui’s opinion.

A truly capable person? She couldn’t even deceive people properly.

Yun Gui thought she was being quite polite. To save face for the young master, she didn’t directly say that Miss Tang was a scammer.

She took a deep breath and said softly, “Master Yun Tian, your health is important. If Miss Tang truly has the ability, why not have a competition with me? As long as she can defeat me, I will acknowledge her skills without a second word.”

Yun Tian knew that if he didn’t agree, he wouldn’t be able to convince everyone. He turned to look at Tang Xin and asked, “What do you think, Miss Tang?”

Yun Gui was slightly taken aback, following Yun Tian’s gaze. What she saw was a pretty girl and a handsome man, both of whom were unfamiliar to her.

Yun Gui couldn’t help but frown. They looked quite refined and beautiful, so why weren’t they doing proper things and instead walking the wrong path?

Tang Xin leaned on her hand, curious. “Haven’t you considered this possibility? I can cure the illness, but I can’t beat you. In that case, wouldn’t Yun Tian be killed by you?”

Yun Gui was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, retorting, “If you can’t even win, how could you possibly cure the strange illness! Are you afraid?”

Afraid? Afraid that the other party would lose everything, leaving nothing behind? Wasn’t that too embarrassing?

Tang Xin stood up and rolled up her sleeves, ready to take action. “Since you’re so eager to lose, then I’ll reluctantly fulfill your wish.”
