Chapter 189 - Investigation

“Who’s looking for you?”

As soon as Yun Xi sat down on the chair, Jing Yu asked with concern.

Jing Yu had deliberately chosen to sit at the same table as Yun Xi. He had even spent money to make this happen.

“A bully named Zhao Dan.” Yun Xi said casually.

“A bully?”

Jing Yu was stunned and looked at Yun Xi in disbelief. With Yun Xi’s character, she would never offend a bully. Moreover, he had never heard of the name Zhao Dan before.

“She’s just a bully from the school. Yun Lian caused trouble, yet she had to drag me down with her.”

“Do you need me to help you solve this matter? And that annoying sister of yours?”

Jing Yu reminded her with concern. He did not want Yun Xi to be hurt in any way.

“No need, but you can get someone to investigate Zhao Dan’s background. After all, there’s no harm in knowing your enemy. Even this kind of small fry has to be dealt with carefully.”

Yun Xi wanted to see where Zhao Dan came from, and what her motive was.

She did not know if the other party would retaliate against her because of Yun Lian’s identity. She also wanted to see if Zhao Dan had any tricks up her sleeve.

“Okay.”

Jing Yu thought about it and felt that it made sense. He had to go and find out more first.

The bell for the class soon rang. This was a history class, and it was about the time Before Christ. This history teacher was quite interesting. The way he lectured was humorous, and the way he conducted his class was rather relaxed. It allowed the students to remember the important points. The teaching standard in this county was quite good.

During the break, the students came together in groups of three or five and chatted about the latest interesting news and gossip.

Yun Xi was not interested in the gossip of these young girls from her school days. She and Jing Yu were discussing how the county head’s wife was seriously ill and was now spending a lot of money to buy a thousand-year-old ginseng to prolong her life.

The county head had already informed all the pharmacies in the county. However, this kind of medicinal herb was relatively expensive even in a big city, not to mention a small county like theirs.

The county head was desperate and started looking for other ways to treat his wife. Even the newly opened pharmacy of the Jing family had been asked if there was any trace of the thousand-year-old ginseng. Yun Xi did not expect that there would actually be someone who would buy such an expensive medicinal herb in this ordinary county, so she did not prepare it in the store.

Of course, how could there be so many coincidences in this world? In order to save his lover’s life, the county head did not hesitate to give up a huge sum of money.

“Yun Xi, can you get this thousand-year-old ginseng through your connections?” Jing Yu asked tentatively.

“If we can get this thousand-year-old ginseng this time, we can use it to save the county head’s wife. Our pharmacy will become famous, and we will have the county head backing us up. In a short period of time, no one can shake the position of the Jing family’s pharmacy.”

“I’ll give it a try.”

Just as Yun Xi said this, the voice of space sounded in her mind.

“Congratulations, master, for unlocking a new mission to treat the county head’s wife with the thousand-year-old ginseng. Mission requirement: Master must personally hand the thousand-year-old ginseng to the county head. If this mission is successful, the function of the space’s internal question bank will be unlocked.”

The function within the space was updated in real-time. Now, Yun Xi is in school. In comparison to going on the battlefield where she needed more heavy weapons, a question bank would be more useful for her on the school’s battlefield. Only then would she be able to sit firmly on the throne of the top student.

At this moment, the question bank function within the space was exactly what she wanted. Moreover, she had originally intended to take out the thousand-year-old ginseng and let Jing Yu hand it over to the county head. Now, she just had to personally make a trip over, so it was not really a troublesome matter.

“Yun Xi, take it. This is my challenge letter for you!”

Yun Xi was still immersed in her communication with the space when a thick envelope appeared on the desk.

“You are?”

The person in front of her wore a pair of large-framed glasses. His body looked thin and small. In this era, the people who went to high school were all around eighteen or nineteen years old. Even if their family conditions were good, those who went to school early were around fifteen or sixteen years old.

However, this young man in front of him looked like he was only 13 or 14 years old. He was short and small.

“I am Li Jun, in second place.”

When he said this, Li Jun was still a little indignant.
