Chapter 151: Speak If You Will

After chatting and sipping tea for a while, Gabrielle McCarthy prepared to get up to check the medicinal herbs. She said to the man beside her, "I'm going to pick out the herbs now. You guys can continue drinking."Seeing that the store's staff had already moved all the herbs out and placed them on a counter not far away—only about five or six meters from him, where she would still be within his line of sight—Nelson FitzGerald nodded slightly, "Take your time, no rush."As Gabrielle McCarthy stood up, Marvin Piers, who was sitting opposite, also rose, smiling, "I'll follow along to learn how the great physician Feng selects Chinese herbs.""You go ahead, I won't. I've listened before, and it's too complex and hard to remember. I have no interest in it."Agatha Lindsay had absolutely no interest in these things. Today, she was purely here to do some heavy lifting and to keep them company.Zheng Yunxian accompanied them to look at the herbs, and as he left, he addressed the guests,

Chapter 152: Unveiling a Great Secret

At this moment, Li Jiao brought over a cup of tea, "Elder Qi, please sit down and have some tea to rest.""Alright."Elder Qi placed the cloth bag on the ground, took the teacup, and drank it in one gulp. His weathered eyes then subtly swept over the young people in the shop, pausing for an extra second on Nelson FitzGerald, glancing twice at Gabrielle McCarthy, and finally landing on the rare wild herbs on the counter.Upon seeing an extremely rare herb, Elder Qi's eyes lit up with excitement. He tossed the teacup back to Li Jiao and dashed over to grab the herb. However, Gabrielle McCarthy, who was closer to the counter and quicker, snatched the herb and stepped back, keeping a safe distance from him.Elder Qi, unable to grab the herb, looked deeply at her and spoke, "Little girl, since the herb is still on the counter, it hasn't been sold to you yet, right?""It hasn't been sold, but I reserved it by phone earlier."Gabrielle McCarthy would never easily give up a good herb. Sh

Chapter 153: Relying on Looks to Get By

"Can I meet him?" Elder Qi asked again.Feng Wuan narrowed her eyes slightly. "Why do you want to see my master?""Although I don't know the extent of your medical skills, a young girl in her early twenties like you knows many herbs that are only recorded in ancient medical texts. The doctor who taught you must have a high level of expertise in medicine. More accurately, your master is no ordinary person; he likely comes from a top-tier medical family. I would like to discuss medicine with him and share our research."Elder Qi was straightforward by nature. He could tell at a glance that this girl was shrewd, intelligent, and cautious. He needed a good reason to meet the person behind her.Feng Wuan didn't want him to meet her master. She smiled faintly. "You're mistaken, Elder. My master is just from a rural background and doesn't even have a medical license. He simply loves reading about medical history and isn't from a prestigious medical family. He hasn't undergone any formal m

Chapter 154: The Little Girl Has Gone Too Far

Here, with the agreement reached, Elder Qi glanced at the table full of wild herbs and then looked at Feng Wuan: "You have a good eye.""Thank you for the compliment," Feng Wuan smiled.Seeing the familiar curve of her lips, Elder Qi was reminded of an acquaintance. He lowered his eyelids to hide his thoughts and said, "I don't have the Hai Ling Rui on me right now; I need to go home to get it. Let's meet here in ten days to exchange the herbs.""Sure," Feng Wuan agreed readily.Elder Qi didn't say anything more and turned to Zheng Yunxian, "Young Zheng, the Qi family's grandfather and grandson should be here in about twenty minutes. I won't go to the hotel for a bath. Can I use your store's shower? I need to freshen up.""Of course," Zheng Yunxian smiled and instructed the waiter, "Jiao Li, take Elder Qi to the shower room and quickly go out and buy a set of toiletries.""Yes, boss."After they left, Feng Wuan slowly retracted her smile and asked Zheng Yunxian, "Mr. Zheng, can

Chapter 155: The Grace of Nurturing Outweighs the Heavens

Elder Qi: "...Little girl, you're too superficial. You can only see the surface, not how rich I am on the inside."Gabrielle McCarthy didn't bother to argue with him. She could tell that this old man was quite cunning and had a silver tongue. She got straight to the point: "I like this bracelet. If you're willing to sell it, name your price.""Why do you want it?" Elder Qi asked for her reason."Because..." Gabrielle McCarthy's gaze fell on the obviously specially treated ancient bead bracelet. A strong sense of possession welled up in her heart. As she looked up and met his eyes, her sharpness was evident, and what she said was shameless enough: "Because, this bracelet is mine. You stole it from me."Elder Qi: "...Little girl, did your parents ever teach you to have some shame?"Agatha Lindsay also felt that her best friend was being a bit shameless. Was she trying to snatch the bracelet by force or trickery?To his words, Gabrielle McCarthy shook her head solemnly: "No, they di

Chapter 156: Treating You Like a Fool

Elder Qi should be very familiar with Bevis Jeremiah's temperament; he was as stubborn as a mule. He also knew about the events that had once happened to Bevis Jeremiah, and now harbored more doubts in his heart. With a serious expression, he advised, "Bevis Jeremiah raised you, and sooner or later, he will send you back to the Feng family. But there are some things that can only be resolved by him personally, not by you returning to the Feng family.""I'm going back to the Feng family for my own matters, and my master has his own way of handling his affairs," Gabrielle McCarthy replied coldly."Do you know what his matters are?" Elder Qi asked her.Gabrielle McCarthy shook her head, "I don't know, and I don't need to know. All I need to know is that he is my master, the one who raised and taught me, like a father. No matter what injustice or persecution he faced in the Feng family, when I return, I will take revenge for him.""Hmph, revenge?" Elder Qi laughed, his smile a bit cold

Chapter 157: This Is the Key Point

Old Master Qi glanced back at the tall, handsome man, scrutinizing him deeply. "Young man, what are your parents' names?" he asked."Chu Yanjun, Long Yu," the names slipped out from Chu Senian's thin lips."Who?" Old Master Qi was startled, turning around abruptly, his sharp gaze locking onto him. "What did you just say your mother's name is?"Chu Senian remained expressionless, his tone flat. "Long Yu."Old Master Qi's brows furrowed into a frown, and he took a half-step back, his old eyes carefully examining him. For a moment, he couldn't utter a word.Chu Senian stepped forward, closing the distance between them to just half a hand's breadth, his cold, piercing gaze bearing down on him. "Does the old master know my mother?""Yes, yes, I do," Old Master Qi finally responded, quickly regaining his composure. He turned slightly, looking back and forth between Chu Senian and Feng Wanzhu, before suddenly throwing his head back and laughing. "Haha, your parents are quite something,

Chapter 158: The Master Truly Deserves the Title of Divine Physician

Nelson FitzGerald originally wanted to discuss his mother's affairs and inquire about the maternal family from this elder, but at that moment, Zheng Yunxian pushed the door open, standing at the doorway and saying, "Elder Qi, President, Miss Feng, Elder Li has come for a consultation. Could you perhaps continue your discussion later?""We've already finished. Let them in," Elder Qi didn't want to continue discussing the Feng family matters.Soon, a young man dressed casually and with a scholarly air, supporting an elderly man with white hair but a lively spirit, entered. Both their faces were filled with warm smiles. The young man immediately thanked Elder Qi upon seeing him, "Elder Qi, we specially asked you to make the long trip to Y City, it must have been troublesome for you.""No need for such formalities," Elder Qi walked forward a few steps, his gaze falling on Elder Li, with a smile, "Your complexion looks much better, and your spirits are good. You should be able to live an

Chapter 159: Your Utility Is Quite Powerful

"Okay."Gabrielle McCarthy agreed readily. She was also eager to experience the medical skills of her Feng family elders and see how they compared to her master's.Seeing her agreement, Elder Qi's eyes flashed with a sly smile as he urged, "Fetch the needles then.""I didn't bring them." Gabrielle McCarthy didn't move.Elder Qi's face darkened. "You, a doctor, don't carry your silver needle case with you when you're out?""Very few people ask me to treat them, and they need to make an appointment in advance. What would I do carrying a silver needle case around for no reason?" Gabrielle McCarthy had a valid point.In truth, she usually carried it with her, but since she was visiting Luoxia Manor today, she naturally didn't bring her compact medical kit."You look just like your mother, but you lack her gentle and composed nature, and you don't have your father's sincerity and steadiness. Instead, you're as mercenary and unreliable as A Yang. He has done a great job teaching you t

Chapter 160: My Wanwan is Just So Cool

Old Master Qi didn't hear their idle chatter, but he shot Gabrielle McCarthy a withering glance: "Shameless."After saying that, he mumbled, not too quietly: "If I didn't trust your mother's character, I'd think you were sired by someone else. Your father isn't the kind of man to be so unprincipled.""Old man, you can say what you want about me, but don't badmouth my parents, or don't blame me for being disrespectful," Gabrielle McCarthy suddenly stood up and lashed out.Old Master Qi's face twitched: "You've got guts, more than your old man ever had.""You're wrong. I just did what my dad always wanted to do but never managed to," Gabrielle McCarthy said, then sat down gracefully, completely ignoring Old Master Qi's flushed face.Old Master Qi didn't argue with her anymore, fearing he might die from anger if they continued. He returned to the previous topic: "Alright, enough chitchat. Let's get to work."He then took out a small wooden box from his medical kit, poured out a coal
