Gong Jue raised his thick eyebrows. “Tell me, what happened to that pharmaceutical book? Can you help Xiaobei treat his eyes?”
He still liked and missed Xiaobei, this sensible brother-in-law.
Gu Qiqi shook her head. “The Medicine Manual is completely different from what I imagined. It’s actually a big ordinary stone.”
“Stone?”
“Yes!” Gu Qiqi took out her phone and opened the photo to show Gong Jue. “It turns out that Feng Yangchu, that cunning guy, accepted me as his disciple because he wanted me to study the pharmaceutical book with him. He’s too sinister…”
Gong Jue carefully stared at the big stone in the photo.
Indeed, as Gu Qiqi said, there was nothing special about this stone other than its size.
The Empire’s Medicine Manual that had been passed down for thousands of years was actually a big stone. This was really unimaginable.
Gong Jue was silent for a moment before he said in a low voice, “Perhaps, that’s not the real Medicine Manual.”
“Oh? Why do you think so?”
“Since it can be called a Medicine Manual, there must be a prescription with a myriad of changes inside. No matter how much a stone changes, the prescription can’t be changed. The ancient people’s wisdom is very natural and not that complicated. Next time, go and take a look at the Medicine Manual and carefully observe the environment around it to see if there’s anything special.”
Gu Qiqi’s mind was in a mess.
She felt that Gong Jue’s words were even more profound.
She couldn’t bear to say that other than trees and grass around that big stone, there was nothing else that could be related to the Medicine Manual.
However, seeing that Gong Jue was so serious in helping her study the Medicine Manual, she decided not to attack him. Instead, she encouraged him. “Not bad, not bad. It’s very enlightening for me.”
Didn’t the book say that she had to play along to men?
Indeed, Gong Jue looked like he was enjoying himself. The effect was obvious.
However…
In the very next second, Gong Jue bent down slightly and moved his chin closer to her. “Since my analysis is useful, shouldn’t you give me a reward?”
“Ah? What reward?” Gu Qiqi was stunned. Faced with Gong Jue’s cold and handsome face, she suddenly understood.
Damn, a big dog was asking for a kiss!
“Hey, there are doctors and nurses everywhere in this corridor. Don’t be so shameless, okay?” Gu Qiqi slapped his shameless thought back to him in annoyance.
“It’s fine. We can find a place with no one to do it.” A certain big dog was very stubborn and continued to suggest shamelessly.
Gu Qiqi was speechless.
Just as Gong Jue was about to drag Gu Qiqi into the nearest washroom and kiss her…
A phone call saved her.
“May I know if this is Young Lady Gu Qiqi?”
“Yes.”
“That’s great! I’ve finally found you!”
A surprised voice traveled from the receiver. It was a girl and she spoke with a thick English accent.
Gu Qiqi was stunned.
She didn’t know any foreigners.
Gong Jue was even more unhappy and wanted to end her call.
Which blind foreign blonde actually dared to disturb his good chance for kissing?
However, in the very next second, the girl’s next words came from the receiver. They were fluent American words. “May I ask if Mr. Gong Jue is beside you? I want to specially thank you for saving my life!”
Gu Qiqi and Gong Jue looked at each other and finally remembered this familiar voice. That was the girl who was nearly stabbed to death by the criminal in the children’s park.
That criminal was also crazy. In order to set a trap for them to fall into, he didn’t hesitate to harm an innocent life.
