"This was given to me by the Medicine Queen. It can help alleviate the pain when the poison flares up. She gave it to me because I was obedient, but I want to give it to Baichuan. Miss Luoyun, you are his sister; you wouldn’t want to see him suffer every night, would you? So, please, could you pass this on to him?" Lan Yue said, evidently self-sacrificing.
Mo Jun didn’t even flicker an eyelid, "I think you should keep it for yourself. My brother likely won’t accept it."
Lan Yue hurriedly said, "I know he hates me, but I was forced into my actions. I don’t expect him to forgive me; I just want to make it up to him. Luoyun, please just see this as my way of compensating him, okay? And you wouldn’t want to see him in pain either, right?"
"If you’re going to give something, give the real antidote. That’s the only way to show your sincerity," Mo Jun deliberately said.
Lan Yue was taken aback, as if she had made up her mind, "Don’t worry, I’ll figure out a way to get the real antidote! But this..."
"Fine, I’ll accept this. Is there anything else you wish to say, Miss Lan?"
Seeing that Mo Jun had accepted it, Lan Yue was pleased and shook her head with a smile, "That’s all. But I also want to make it up to you. Oh, this is a gift for you, I hope you’ll accept it."
Lan Yue took out a box and opened it, revealing a jade bracelet inside.
They had an unpleasant conflict over buying a jade bracelet the last time, so she especially bought one to give to her this time.
"Miss Luoyun, I was actually trying to take Yun Feng’s side back then. Yun Feng is my good friend, and of course, I was on her side. Now that the misunderstandings are cleared up, can’t you let bygones be bygones? Regardless of everything, Yun Feng is your sister too. How about we turn hostility into friendship and become good sisters?"
How could she say such things about becoming good sisters?
"Thank you for your kindness, Miss Lan, but I’m not interested in any of these. I don’t need the jade bracelet either; you keep it for yourself. I have something else to attend to, so I’ll take my leave now." Mo Jun did not want to listen to her anymore and got up to leave.
Lan Yue did not expect her to be so difficult to deal with, a flash of annoyance crossing her eyes.
This woman really doesn’t know what’s good for her!
If it weren’t for trying to ingratiate herself with Luo Baichuan, she wouldn’t bother to please her at all! Who did she think she was? Lan Yue never really cared about her!
Mo Jun left the restaurant and immediately threw the medicine given by Lan Yue into the trash can.
How could she not understand Lan Yue’s intentions? Nothing but an attempt to curry favor with Luo Baichuan through her.
Only pity is, she mistook the feeling...
And her attempts at ingratiation were nothing but nauseating.
After leaving the restaurant, Mo Jun did not return to the studio but continued her research because that night, Hao Yansen had said he was going to modify Shang Shi’s body.
Before the plot of the Counterfeit Medicine King surfaced, they needed to hurry and improve their strength.
Only then would they be able to defeat them when the time came...
Meanwhile, the magazine featuring Mo Jun and the others had been published. Thanks to the high attractiveness of Yun Long and his friends, along with their good figures, and the lively and healthy style of the photoshoot, the magazine sold well, raising some fans for Mo Jun and her group as well.
Now in Haidao City, they had already established quite a reputation.
Of course, Mo Jun was also learning from Xia Pu about how to identify the quality and flaws in jade, as well as how to invest.
She was busy every day, and even though all this activity was just the calm before the storm, she did not give up on her career or progress; she didn’t just sit around waiting for trouble.
Hao Yansen was doing the same, busy arranging everything, all the while quietly establishing a partnership with Pei Yuanze and his associates.
