The blonde manager smiled and shook hands with Pei Yan, leaving the room with her assistant.
Outside, the assistant scratched his head. “Lina, we also don’t really know why the Duke decided to invest in a Daxia company.”
The manager pondered for a moment. “True, it’s a mystery. But I heard that after the Duke’s investment, His Majesty the King got an earful in the court.” The assistant was speechless, struck by this revelation.
Meanwhile, Pei Yan carefully stored the contract and sent another message of thanks to Si Fuqing.
[Miss Si]: No need to thank me. We’re all businesspeople, serving our own interests. I need the following medicinal herbs, the older, the better.
[Miss Si]: Also, I’ll give you a few prescriptions. Try making them; they should fetch a good price.
Pei Yan promptly agreed, receiving a spreadsheet from Si Fuqing.
It was a long list of medicinal names.
Pei Yan hadn’t heard of most of them.
He wondered why Si Fuqing needed so many herbs.
Masters of Yin-Yang could indeed heal, but according to his research, they used the power of Yin and Yang, the Five Elements, and spirit communication. Herbs were not typically part of their repertoire.
Pei Yan printed out the list, then paused, struck by a realization.
He revisited the prescriptions sent by Si Fuqing, stunned.
Miss… Miss Si, she knows medicine too?
What kind ofprodigy was she?
At six in the evening, Si Fuqing left work.
Shang Lu followed her, walking the dog.
Little Bai, having just eaten a gold bar, was leaping about energetically, Shang Lu barely managed to catch-up.
Eventually, Si Fuqing picked it up.
Little Bai instantly calmed down, licking its paws and casting a disdainful glance at Shang Lu.
Shang Lu was speechless.
He had just been disdained by a dog.
“Miss Si, if you need a guest for the show, I can contact the lady right away, ” Shang Lu stepped forward. “Although she’s retired from the limelight, she still has many contacts in the film industry , including many award winners”
“No need for celebrities,” Si Fuqing stroked her chin thoughtfully. “Su Yang’s vote just solved my dilemma.”
“Not inviting celebrities?” Shang Lu was puzzled. “Aren’t we talking about famous guests?”
“I said famous guests, not necessarily celebrities,” Si Fuqing replied lazily. “The ultimate goal is to attract attention. With Su Yang’s vote, inviting more stars is pointless. ”
Shang Lu nodded in agreement.
He ventured cautiously, “Miss Si, may I ask what is your relationship with Mr. Su Yang?”
“Oh.” Si Fuqing vigorously rubbed Little Bai’s fluffy head. “A wonderful brotherly relationship.”
Shang Lu:
Who’s the older one and who’s the younger one?
After returning to the villa, Shang Lu left.
After dinner and her routine check on Yu Xiheng’s leg, Si Fuqing returned to her bedroom on the second floor.
As she lay in bed, her computer finished downloading QQ.
Si Fuqing didn’t check her overflowing message list but entered a small group chat of six people.
All the avatars, including the group owner’s, were grayed out.
It was unclear if they were invisible or offline.
Si Fuqing slowly typed a message into the chat box.
[Friday and Saturday, who’s free? Two people are enough. Come to Lin City, need help. I’ll return the favor on your next project.]
After a brief silence, all the avatars in the group suddenly started flashing wildly..
