Xiaosuisui’s swift and powerful punches were utterly intimidating...
After just two or three punches, they were sprawled out on the ground, clutching their stomachs, hugging their arms, and wincing in pain... "OUCH... OUCH..." they groaned.
This scene left the onlookers dumbfounded.
Zhao Fei was absolutely flabbergasted!
"Um... Benefactor... You... You’re incredibly good at fighting, aren’t you?"
Stamring, Zhao Fei finally managed to squeeze out a sentence.
Xiaosuisui looked up at him and casually pulled out a healing pill from her pouch and handed it to him.
"Yeah! You should eat it! Let’s go in and demand the Herbal Compendium from them!"
Zhao Fei, as if possessed, accepted the dicine Pill she handed him and swallowed it. Only after swallowing did he feel a jolt of shock.
Why did he not even think of politely refusing when his benefactor offered him the dicine Pill? Why did he so readily do as she said?
He had just swallowed the dicine Pill without hesitation. Now that he had regained his senses, he realized they were already inside Li’s Pharmacy.
"Give back my book!"
He heard his benefactor say to the shopkeeper of the pharmacy in a childish tone.
The shopkeeper instinctively thought of retrieving the recently obtained treasure of the store to hand over to the little girl.
However, before he could move, a young man’s voice ca from the back room.
"What do you an, your book? This is a treasure made by our Divine Physician Zhong with blood, sweat, and tears, intended to teach dicinal knowledge and herb identification to the disciples of the Li Clan!"
The speaker was Li Yu, the young master of the Li Family. He was also the young owner of Li’s Pharmacy and the nephew of Officer Li.
Li Yu’s father was Officer Li’s paternal cousin, responsible for managing the Li Family’s household affairs and all their business operations.
As Li Yu had no talent for scholarship, he learned to do business with his father.
The Li Family had recently beco new nobles in the capital. After being suppressed for decades, up to a century, they now had a Third Grade official from their family serving in the capital. Consequently, they grew more assertive and also beca arrogant.
They didn’t commit heinous cris in the capital, but they certainly used their status to bully others!
This was especially true after a Lucky Star erged in the Li Family. This Lucky Star was accepted as the National Master’s disciple and had recently received many rewards from the Empress Dowager. As a result, the Li Family’s fa beca unparalleled, and businesses in the capital dared not offend them.
Young Master Li thus beca even more audacious.
"It’s mine!"
Xiaosuisui glared at the young man erging from the back room and roared. With hands on her hips and her little cheeks puffed out in anger, she made her fury clear!
"What do you an it’s yours, kid? Go back where you ca from. I’ll say it again: that was drawn by our Divine Physician Zhong of Li’s Pharmacy. Don’t cause trouble here, or I won’t be polite to you!"
Furious, Xiaosuisui put her hands on her hips and declared loudly, "I’ll say it again, it’s mine! It was given to by my Second Uncle. He drew it himself! What makes you think that bullshit Doctor Zhong of your Li’s Pharmacy drew it?"
"OH MY! Such a bold kid! Your Second Uncle drew it for you? Who is your Second Uncle? Where is he? Call him here! I’d like to see what kind of person your Second Uncle is, to be able to draw such a treasure!"
Young Master Li sneered. Just a child, yet she dares to cause a scene in our Li’s Pharmacy! If I don’t teach her a lesson today, how will I manage my subordinates in the future?
"My Second Uncle is Ji Youran. He is in..."
Xiaosuisui paused. She forgot to ask where Second Uncle was when she left ho today!
"Can’t say, can you? Hurry ho to your mom, and don’t embarrass yourself here."
Xiaosuisui huffed indignantly.
"I can too! I don’t know where my Second Uncle went, but my maternal grandmother and my Second Aunt must know! You can co with to find them, and they’ll tell you where my Second Uncle is!"
