"Good heavens!" Qi Lin quickly threw the pill in his hand out.

Gu Mingyan caught it quickly and looked at him helplessly: "If this poison is not dissolved in water, it will be useless. What are you afraid of?"

"But it's also poison." Qi Lin hurriedly put his hands into the basin to clean it.

Gu Mingyan helplessly put everything back in place and started to slowly adjust the dosage. After boiling the soup twice, there was a deviation to it, and she was just at this point in time. Qi Lin, who was by her side, just looked at the sky and started to wake up, yawning continuously, and directly fell asleep with his head lowered.

As she was wholeheartedly concocting the soup, Gu Mingyan felt that something was missing from the recipe. When she turned around to look, she heard a cry from behind her.

She was looking at the few stalks of herbs she had picked up from the mountains earlier, that were on the table, they were missing a few stalks. Qi Lin was scratching his head as he looked at the medicinal soup being cooked.

His face was filled with an apology: "I was a bit tired just now, and accidentally stumbled upon the medicinal ingredients …"

"If there's nothing else, just treat it as trying." Gu Mingyan immediately recalled the medicinal ingredients she had left at that place, hesitated for a moment, she threw the rest of the medicinal ingredients in, and added a few more along the way, before slowly boiling them. Seeing that Qi Lin was still standing there apologetically at the side, she smiled at him: "If you're tired next time, then go back to your room and rest, I'm used to doing this by myself."

"Do you study these herbs every day?" Qi Lin did not leave, but carried a small stool and sat by the side.

"Hmm, I quite like it."

"Then you're too boring, looking at how your door doesn't seem to be open at all, you really look like the young miss of that family, but I've never seen a young lady who stays in the pharmacy day and night to make soup, how about I take you out for a few days later?" Because of what happened just now, Qi Lin had completely lost all of his sleepiness.

When Gu Mingyan heard this, she immediately agreed. "Alright, when the time comes, call for Yin Qiao and Qingdai as well."

"Alright!" Qi Lin laughed.

When the sun rose, Qi Lin was already sleeping soundly on the bench beside her. Seeing that she had not slept for the night, Cheng Yichenger did not dare to stop her.

Gu Mingyan felt that her body was already better, but she did not dare act rashly. She only dared to use her own blood to test the medicine, and drip it into her own blood.

No poison!

She did not care about Cheng Yichenger stopping her, and directly drank a mouthful of the soup.

Her body felt much more comfortable. She once again put the pill she had created into her mouth. Her eyes lit up, but her expression remained the same as she continued to work on the remaining medicinal plants without saying a word.

Only until late in the morning did she finally place the completed soup medicine into the jade bottle, just in case she needed it when the time came.

Qi Lin also slowly woke up while rubbing his head and neck. Just as he got off the bench and rubbed his neck, Gu Mingyan had already walked over quickly, happily passing the medicinal soup to him: "I succeeded, it's all thanks to your previous mistake. In return for that, I'll treat you to a meal outside."

Only then did Cheng Yichenger come back to his senses. The silence just now was only because Qi Lin was sleeping.

"Are you for real?" Qi Lin looked at the strange soup and revealed a disgusted expression.

"Of course it's true. Hurry up and change into a clean set of clothes." Gu Mingyan nodded seriously, she turned and looked at Cheng Yi and Cheng Er, and continued: "You guys also prepare, you guys can go out later."

Gu Mingyan practically did everything in a flurry of emotions.

In less than two incense sticks of time, the six of them had already sat in unison on the second floor of the restaurant. Yin Qiao, on the other hand, was accustomed to her personality of doing whatever she wanted to do, while Qi Lin, who was at her side, lazily yawned and looked at her in surprise, "You haven't slept for two whole nights, right?"

"Fortunately, I don't need much sleep anyway." Gu Mingyan held onto her cheeks, thinking that she could at least find a cure for the poison, and she would be able to use a needle in the future, she became extremely happy, "It's all thanks to you hitting me right in the face, you're really my lucky star."

"This is the first time someone has said that to me." Qi Lin rubbed his nose, he did not study or practice martial arts normally, and people in the residence would only speak with dissatisfaction towards him, thinking that he was a burden, but this was the first time he was praised...

"That's a lucky star, this is just a bad strike." Seeing her young miss praising this little bully, Yin Qiao was a little jealous.

"Luck is also very important." Gu Mingyan started laughing along with him. Qi Lin was dissatisfied and immediately started arguing with Yin Qiao, one after the other. Although Cheng Yi and Chen Er were quiet, they both liked to eat meat, Gu Mingyan ordered more dishes for them.

Originally, it was a scene of excitement, but then the waiter on the second floor shouted loudly: "Isn't this Young Master Guang! "Coincidentally, Young Master Qi is also having his meal on the second floor, coincidentally!"

Qi Lin looked at the others in dismay. Gu Mingyan was still a little confused, but fortunately, Cheng Er whispered softly in her ear: "Guang Xian is the eldest son of the Assistant Minister of Revenue, and is extremely doting on by him. Even though the palace is filled with concubines, there is no official wife. He was the head of the tyrants that beat up Young Master Qi along with a few other young masters earlier."

After hearing that, Gu Mingyan's face sunk, now that she was away from the medical books, she suddenly remembered that Cheng Yichenger was actually sent by Duan Chengxuan, no wonder he was well-informed, but seeing how the two of them were working diligently, she did not say anything, only ordering some wine, she continued: "So what if the path of enemies is narrow, it's not like you did something wrong."

Qi Lin's hand paused, "In the past, didn't I still go with them …"

"You already said it was before. In the future, you will help me concoct medicine and I will teach you medical skills. Then, you will save and cure my illness. Just forgive me. I don't know if you'll be able to make amends compared to when they died." Gu Mingyan poured a cup of wine for him, "In this world, there are some people who can repent. There are some people who deserve to have their souls shattered even if they were to release their butcher knives."

Qi Lin was unable to win against her, so he decided to not speak, and hid in a corner silently.

"I didn't expect you to be so timid." Yin Qiao laughed at him.

"None of your business." Qi Lin glared at her. In the end, he was still a little afraid.

Gu Mingyan shook her head helplessly, and turned around, only to see a few well-dressed young masters walking over. All of them looked confident and at ease, when they walked, they looked extremely arrogant and the one leading them was Guang Xian.

"Isn't this Qi Lin? Now, have you returned to your residence and continued eating leisurely? " Guang Xian moved closer, and his gaze immediately fell on Gu Mingyan's body.

Gu Mingyan was good-looking, her skin was creamy, and her eyes were brimming with energy and vitality. Her nose was straight, her lips were smooth, and her cheeks were round, but she had a smiling face. Not to mention that she only poured wine for herself, revealing half of her fair wrist.

Guang Xian's eyes lit up. He walked forward, lightly tapped her chin and slowly moved closer: "What a beautiful woman.
