Ms. Doctor Divine

She chuckled.

She had not expected that Lingyun had misunderstood and thought that she was here to talk about Wuxing.

She just hoped that she would not feel so stressed right now.

"Lingyun, since I have decided to let you follow me, I trust you fully, and I believe that you will do something about it." Gu Chaoyan reiterated seriously. "Don't have such doubts in the future."

Lingyun was confused - Elder Miss did not ask her for this.

Gu Chaoyan sat down and asked Lingyun to do the same.

She poured a cup of tea, which was brewed by the spring water she took out from her space, which suited her taste. Even the tea at the auction house did not taste like the tea in the Haitian market, which she was not used to.

Taking a sip of tea, Gu Chaoyan said with a smile, "I asked you to come here because I need your opinion on one thing."

"…."

"Now that we are working with Haitian Auction House, I won't have time to refine new pills alone. I would like to ask if you are willing to help me with them."

"…."

"I have seen you make poison, and you have a good control of the heat. If you want to make pills, you can learn a little from me, and it should not be a big problem. What do you think? If you don't want to make pills, then you can concentrate on making poison." Gu Chaoyan said.

They were currently at the Haitian market, and Gu Chaoyan couldn't think of a better solution, so she had to prioritize using Lingyun's assistance.

She had no other choice but to do so.

Initially, Gu Chaoyan had called Lingyun to refine poison by her side, but now she was asking her to refine pills, which meant an increased workload for Lingyun.

Lingyun remained silent for a prolonged moment.

She wasn't displeased with the request but rather surprised by Elder Miss's trust and kind treatment. Did Elder Miss understand the value of her elixirs? By teaching Lingyun, it meant that Elder Miss wasn't the sole possessor of this knowledge. If Lingyun had any ulterior motives, she could ruin Elder Miss's plans to make her elixirs less valuable.

However, Elder Miss showed complete trust and never doubted Lingyun's loyalty. Lingyun was concerned that she might reject the proposal.

But…

Lingyun felt deeply moved.

It was because Elder Miss trusted her.

Lingyun was willing to accept the task and had no intention of betraying Elder Miss.

"Yes, Elder Miss," Lingyun replied.

Gu Chaoyan nodded. "Then I will teach you how to make pills tomorrow."

"Okay!" Lingyun responded earnestly.

With that settled, Gu Chaoyan returned to her room to continue her pill-making endeavors.

Meanwhile, at the hotel…

Zhao Wuhuai and the others returned home.

Both Zhao Wuhuai and Wuxing were displeased, while Zhao Dier appeared relaxed. If Gu Chaoyan hadn't agreed, then she wouldn't have to deal with her at the Piaomiao Pavilion anymore.

"Do you know her maid? And for many years?" Zhao Wuhuai inquired, pondering over the matter.

"Yes, Mr. Head, I have known her for many years, and there was even a time when we were preparing for an engagement. However, certain circumstances arose, and we ended up becoming distant from each other," Wuxing honestly explained. He wanted to clarify matters with Zhao Dier, taking this opportunity as Zhao Wuhuai had mentioned his desire for Wuxing to marry her.

Zhao Wuhuai smiled with satisfaction. "Okay, okay!"
