“Mr. Ye, do you have a girlfriend?”
He Yuyao’s big bright eyes were still staring at Ye Xiaofei. She didn’t have the shyness of a girl. She was bold and direct.
Ye Xiaofei shook his head subconsciously.
He Yuyao held Ye Xiaofei’s hand excitedly and shouted, “You don’t have a girlfriend? That’s great. Then can I be your girlfriend?”
“No!” Ye Xiaofei suddenly withdrew his hand and jumped up, saying, “I still have something to do. I’ll leave first.”
“Do you think I’m not beautiful enough? Do you think my figure isn’t good enough? Or do you feel that you don’t like me?”
He Yuyao followed closely behind and kept asking.
Ye Xiaofei felt a headache coming on. He was actually a little scared that a girl was trying to be nice to him, and a beautiful girl at that. All he wanted to do now was to escape.
“Mr. Ye!” However, he met Sun Mingyuan. When Sun Mingyuan saw Ye Xiaofei, he immediately blocked the door in excitement, afraid that Ye Xiaofei would run away.
“You guys are…” Sun Mingyuan felt that the two of them looked strange and asked subconsciously.
He Yuyao’s face turned red, and she was tongue-tied. She didn’t know how she could be so bold when facing Ye Xiaofei alone and yet in front of her teacher, her courage instantly disappeared.
Ye Xiaofei secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Sun Mingyuan had helped him escape the situation. He quickly said, “I have something to do. I have to go first.”
Sun Mingyuan quickly asked, “What is it that makes Mr. Ye so anxious?”
He Yuyao finally realized that she had scared Ye Xiaofei. She quickly tried to salvage the situation and uttered, “Mr. Ye, didn’t you just say that you wanted Professor Sun to order some medicinal herbs? I don’t think it will take long. It’s not too late for you to leave after you’re done.”
Ye Xiaofei saw that He Yuyao didn’t say anything more and felt a little relieved. He said, “Then I’ll have to trouble Elder Sun.”
“It’s no trouble at all,” Sun Mingyuan said hurriedly. “It’s my honor to be able to be of help.”
Ye Xiaofei asked for a pen and paper and listed the things he needed.
After Sun Mingyuan saw it, he said in surprise, “There are quite a few rare items here. I don’t have three of them here, so I need to ask some of my peers.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble you, Elder Sun. No matter how much it costs, it’s not a problem.”
“These things are indeed expensive.” Sun Mingyuan commented curiously, “Nevertheless, I’m sure I can find them. But I don’t understand what kind of effect they will have when used together.”
Ye Xiaofei smiled and said, “That is not for curing diseases. It has a special function which not everyone can capitalize on. There are very few people in that world who can use it. I was lucky enough to meet someone who can.”
Sun Mingyuan asked, curiosity unsatisfied, “Then, Mr. Ye, could give me some pointers on the pharmacology here?”
Ye Xiaofei chuckled and said, “Even I told you, it wouldn’t be of use to you. Why don’t we talk about other pharmacology? 1’11 tell you everything I know.”
Sun Mingyuan’s eyes immediately lit up. “That’s exactly what I want.”
The more the two talked about medicine, the more congenial they became.
The Heaven and Earth Scripture contained all kinds of miraculous medical skills, resulting in Ye Xiaofei being ahead of Sun Mingyuan in terms of medical skills.
But in terms of practical experience, Sun Mingyuan was much stronger than Ye Xiaofei.
Ye Xiaofei had benefited a lot from their exchange.
As for Sun Mingyuan, he had gained even more. Ye Xiaofei seemed to have opened the door to a whole new world.
Sun Mingyuan was already a skilled doctor, but he had stagnated over the years because there was no better doctor to guide him.
Now, Ye Xiaofei had helped him to make a breakthrough, allowing him to be enlightened and his understanding of medicine to reach a new level.
“Mr. Ye! I… I really should acknowledge you as my mentor!” Sun Mingyuan was so excited that he wanted to kneel down.
Ye Xiaofei quickly held Sun Mingyuan’s arm and pulled him up. He said, “Elder Sun, you’re too polite. We’re fulfilling each other’s needs. I’ve also benefited a lot from communicating with you.”
“How can we compare?” Sun Mingyuan shook his head and said, “Even if you don’t admit it, I will still treat you as a teacher in my heart.”
“Teacher? That won’t do!” He Yuyao immediately shouted.
“Why not?” asked Sun Mingyuan. “Although Mr. Ye is young, in terms of medical skills, he is definitely much better than me. To be able to receive his guidance is simply a blessing. Even taking Mr. Ye as a mentor would be an honor for me.”
“But… But…” He Yuyao blushed, but she couldn’t say anything.
“Yuyao, what’s wrong with you today?” Sun Mingyuan frowned. “Don’t you admire Mr. Ye’s medical skills? If I acknowledge Mr. Ye as a teacher, you should be happy. You will be his grand disciple. Mr. Ye will teach you anything and it will benefit you for the rest of your life.”
Ye Xiaofei burst out laughing and said, “Now that you mention it, it’s quite interesting. Nice to meet you, my granddisciple.”
He Yuyao’s mouth was drawn tight. She dilly-dallied and refused to acknowledge their new relationship.
Sun Mingyuan stomped his feet anxiously. “Yuyao, you’re driving me to my grave. AAr. Ye is giving you a chance. If you don’t seize it, you won’t have such a good chance in the future.”
Ye Xiaofei was scared by He Yuyao to death just now, so now he wanted to tease her. The more He Yuyao refused, the more he wanted to force her. With a straight face, Ye Xiaofei said, “That’s right. I’ll only give you this one chance. I won’t give you a second chance.”
“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and acknowledge him as your grandmentor.” Sun Mingyuan wanted to acknowledge on He Yuyao’s behalf.
He Yuyao bit her lip and slowly walked up to Ye Xiaofei. The awkward look on her face made Ye Xiaofei extremely happy.
“Greetings, Grandmentor!” He Yuyao finally managed to spit out those three words.
Ye Xiaofei narrowed his eyes and uttered, “What did you say? My ears are not good, so I didn’t hear you clearly.”
“Greetings, Grandmentor!” He Yuyao suddenly shouted.
“Good girl!” Ye Xiaofei burst into laughter. He finally got back at He Yuyao for the humiliation he suffered earlier.
“Grandmentor!” He Yuyao suddenly called out again. She took a step forward and stretched out her two small hands. “Why don’t you give your granddiscipie a small gift?”
Ye Xiaofei’s smile disappeared. He looked at the excitement on He Yuyao’s face and suddenly felt something was wrong. Why did he seem to have fallen into that woman’s trap?
The smile on He Yuyao’s face grew wider. “Since I’m your granddisciple, then I can rightfully serve you in the future. Also, when you treat people, 1 hope you can bring me along so that I can broaden my horizons and not embarrass you in the future!”
“F*ck! I’ve been tricked!” Ye Xiaofei cried out in his heart. He was very annoyed..
