"Junior Tang Shu has hit the nail on the head!"
"Think about it, processing medicinal materials requires freshness. Aside from some herbs that need to be sun-dried for a long time before processing, fresh medicinal herbs are indeed hard to come by."
"And, our school’s Medicinal Garden doesn’t have all the varieties of herbs, so why not join the club and explore rare medicinal materials together?"
Cheng Ranran and Ye Xiaohui exchanged glances, both feeling a stirring sense of anticipation.
Good, this no longer seemed like a big scam.
Using time outside school to gather herbs from various locations was indeed a rare opportunity, and for students of their era, it presented a challenge.
"Hehe, don’t look at our club as having just over a dozen members, but not just anyone can join."
Odd indeed, it was one thing for specialized clubs to have few members, but why did they also require a test to join?
Other clubs just needed you to fill out a form.
"Yes, there’s a test!"
The senior took out a bag from below and carefully pulled out some medicinal materials from it.
"Here, process these herbs properly. As long as the steps are correct, and the medicinal properties are kept within a reasonable range, that’s fine."
After some thought, Ye Xiaohui pushed Tang Shu to the front. "You give it a try."
Cheng Ranran nodded frantically from the side. Tang Shu glanced at the two types of herbs and the processing tools in front of her, pulled out a chair, and sat down.
The herbs were very common, extremely so. Medical University’s Medicinal Garden had many of them. However, the fact that they could present fresh herbs was proof enough that these students were not ordinary ones in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department.
They might well be disciples of some professor, which also indicated that this seemingly dubious club wasn’t established on a whim.
Joining it... seemed quite good?
Thinking so, Tang Shu started to process the herbs with seasoned proficiency. This was all too familiar to her.
The two male students were initially nonchalant, but as time passed, their eyes grew wider and wider, and their mouths formed large "O"s.
"Junior Tang Shu, you... you’ve got some skills, huh?"
This was nothing like a first-year student; her technique was seasoned, even outperforming some of these third-year students!
Behind her, Cheng Ranran empathized, "Is this really just a small test to join the club?"
Ye Xiaohui looked at the two assessing them and was silent for a moment.
"She’s clearly here to show off."
Imperial Capital, airport.
As a plane from M country touched down, the terminal’s arrival hall was immediately flooded with a large group of girls holding Keep reading on NovelHub - where stories come alive!
The scene was so grand that it attracted a considerable number of passengers emerging from the exit.
Here, a man hoisting a camera was talking to someone beside him.
"Hey, is Mu Ziwei really on this flight that just landed? Don’t deceive me, eh? If there’s no big news today, our trip here would have been in vain."
"No mistake, I’ve got insider information!"
"Insider information, my foot! Mu Ziwei has been in M country for two or three months, and you only got the news after her movie finished shooting. What kind of insider info is that?"
"That’s what you don’t know! Vast Entertainment intentionally kept it from us so they could announce it after the sci-fi blockbuster finished filming over there, wouldn’t that make a bigger news story?"
The camera guy was taken aback.
