Chapter 274 - 273: The Invitation
Hearing Yiyi’s words, Fei Erya was full of joy.
"Really? That’s great news! Congratulations!"
Yiyi smiled and said, "Thank you."
After confirming Yiyi’s engagement date again, Fei Erya quickly said, "I will definitely attend your engagement banquet on time."
"Okay."
After a few more words, Yiyi went back to school.
However, she kept Fan Qianshu’s matter in mind. She always felt there was something unusual about him, and since Fan Qianshu and Erya were on pretty good terms now, she decided to investigate a bit when she had the time to avoid any trouble for Er Ya.
It’s important to know that Er Ya hadn’t done anything today and yet Shui Bingqing had already vented her anger on her. Fan Qianshu was basically a magnet for drama, so it’s better to keep a distance from him.
The next day, after finishing her class, Yiyi planned to go home, but when she reached the school gate, she saw Fei Erya waiting outside.
"Yiyi, you’re done with school!"
Seeing Fei Erya, Yiyi was a bit surprised, "Er Ya, what brings you here?"
"I thought I’d go back and see Aunt Ding today, and also have a good chat with you." She hadn’t been back for a while because she had been busy earning money through a part-time job.
To be honest, she really missed Ding Yuejun and Yiyi, but life’s pressures had kept her busy. Only now, having changed part-time jobs, did she have some free time.
Hearing this, Yiyi quickly smiled, "That’s great, I was just about to go home too, let’s go back together."
When Ding Yuejun saw them come back, she was very happy.
"Erya, it’s been a while since you last came, Aunt Ding missed you. Oh, Yiyi told you, right? About her engagement to Tingyu."
Fei Erya smiled and said, "Yiyi already told me. Congratulations to her! I didn’t expect she’d be getting engaged so soon."
"It’s just an engagement, there’s still some time before marriage, especially since I haven’t graduated from college yet."
Fei Erya laughed and said, "Soon enough, once you’re engaged, you’re practically part of the Gu Family."
While speaking, there was a hint of envy in Fei Erya’s eyes.
She had seen the relationship between Yiyi and Gu Tingyu firsthand, and she truly felt happy for them reaching this point.
Ding Yuejun nodded with a smile, "Yes, Yiyi’s lifelong matter is settled now."
Then she turned to Fei Erya and said, "Er Ya, you should work hard too. After graduating from college, find a good partner to marry. You’re so beautiful, I’m sure you’ll find a good man."
Talking about this, Fei Erya blushed and quickly said, "Aunt Ding, it’s still early for me."
Seeing her shyness, Ding Yuejun didn’t say more, but instead smiled and asked Yiyi to call over Guo Ming and Mo Ping for dinner.
Yiyi nodded with a smile.
When she got to the next room, she only saw Mo Ping and Pei Jin.
"Pei Jin, where’s my teacher?"
Pei Jin quickly replied, "The Sect Leader is busy with some matters."
"When will he be back?"
"Probably not until late at night," Pei Jin replied.
Upon hearing this, Yiyi didn’t ask further and invited Mo Ping and Pei Jin to come for dinner, "Mother prepared a lot of dishes today, come and eat."
Mo Ping smiled and said, "That’s wonderful."
When the three of them arrived, Yiyi took the opportunity to ask Pei Jin to check on the family situation of a female student and Fan Qianshu’s affairs.
Pei Jin nodded and said, "Don’t worry, Young Master, I will look into it thoroughly and get back to you with the information."
"Okay."
After arriving, they sat down to eat.
After dinner, Mo Ping found a chance to talk to Yiyi, "Young Boss, our pharmaceutical factory will open this weekend, and we should have a good celebration."
Hearing this, Yiyi naturally nodded.
Mo Ping hesitated for a moment, then finally spoke, "Young Boss, could you invite your teacher and your two senior brothers to come over? They are well-known figures in the traditional medicine world. If they come, our factory will surely gain a lot of prestige."
Yiyi hadn’t thought of this initially, but hearing Mo Ping’s suggestion, she considered it seriously and finally said, "I’ll ask my teacher. If he agrees, we can invite them."
Mo Ping was very pleased to hear this.
"That’s wonderful, Young Boss, when will you go to invite them?"
Seeing Mo Ping’s eager look, Yiyi couldn’t help but smile, "It’ll have to be tomorrow evening, since I have classes during the day."
The next day, after class, Yiyi went directly to Kong Mingsheng’s house.
Kong Mingsheng was also very happy to see Yiyi.
"Yiyi, what brings you here today?"
Yiyi took out a prescription and handed it to Kong Mingsheng, "Master, this is a prescription I came across by chance. Could you take a look at its feasibility?"
This prescription is something she obtained from Medicine Valley, but even using the Little Green Fruit, she hadn’t managed to produce it successfully. Since she was visiting, she decided to consult him as well.
They hadn’t had a proper exploration of traditional medicine knowledge since she became his disciple.
Kong Mingsheng took Yiyi’s prescription and looked at it carefully. When he saw the ingredients listed, he was quite astonished.
"Yiyi, where did you get this from?"
"I obtained it from a woman named Leng Yu, but there are some issues with her, so I’m not sure if the prescription is genuine."
Yiyi put the blame on Leng Yu, although Leng Yu’s disappearance had been a persistent concern for her, and she had no idea where the woman had gone.
Previously, she had also tried to investigate Medicine Valley but found it hadn’t even formed yet, and the old poison master was nowhere to be found.
Thinking of this, Yiyi felt a bit regretful.
Kong Mingsheng read the prescription again and said to Yiyi, "If this medicine pill can really be made, it would benefit many people, but I can’t be sure about the prescription’s feasibility yet. It requires further research."
"Then I will trouble you, Master."
Kong Mingsheng quickly waved his hand, "There’s no trouble at all. It’s rare for you to trust me with this prescription. Don’t worry, if the medicine pill is successfully made, the credit will be yours as well."
Yiyi didn’t dare to claim credit.
Kong Mingsheng didn’t allow her to refuse and then asked, "By the way, can you handle your studies well?"
"Yes."
Yiyi nodded, then mentioned her purpose for coming, "Master, I’ve built a pharmaceutical factory outside the city, and it’s opening this Saturday. If you’re free, you and my two senior brothers could come and take a look."
