Su Yu recalled that a few days ago she was still in a state of being beautiful without realizing it. That natural beauty and purity must have been hard to resist.

Whenever she thought of Jiang Ziling, ripples appeared in her heart. Now that she was alone, she felt a little uncomfortable, as if a familiar warmth was missing in her life.

After her hair slowly dried in the night breeze, Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief and slowly walked towards the bed.

I thought she would fall asleep quickly after a day of hard work, but...

As the night deepened, moonlight shone through the window onto the head of the bed, but Su Yu tossed and turned, his thoughts surging like a tide, and he could not fall asleep for a long time.

She missed her master who had been so kind to her, and imagined his reaction when he learned of her sudden departure - the kind yet stern old man would be heartbroken.

On weekdays, no one prepares delicious meals for him, and no one jokes and plays with him to dispel his loneliness. In the days to come, how will he face the empty and silent life?

Jiang Ziling's figure also lingered in her mind.

When his leg injury heals, should she leave resolutely and return to her own life? But once she leaves, how can she get rid of the tongue-tightness that is entangled in Xier? If she chooses to stay, how should she define the complex and delicate relationship between the two of them? Should she continue this tangled and confusing relationship in the fog of ambiguity and status?

With so many thoughts in his mind and a lot of confusion, Su Yucai didn't know how long it had passed before he gradually fell asleep in exhaustion and sleepiness.

The next morning, the first ray of sunlight gently shone into the room, waking up Su Yu from his deep sleep.

She stood up, opened the curtains, and basked in the warm sunshine, feeling refreshed.

Su Yu changed into the new clothes she had carefully selected yesterday. It was a simple yet lively cloth skirt that complemented her temperament.

She walked to the bronze mirror and looked at herself in the mirror carefully.

The person in the mirror had long lost the simplicity of a village woman, and was replaced by the image of a pretty, charming girl with bright eyes and a charming look.

She smiled slightly.

Although the new clothes were not the most popular luxurious style at the time, they were the most suitable outfit for a simple farm girl of her current status.

After all, if one wore gold, silver and jewelry and dressed like a noble lady to go to the mountains to collect herbs, it would inevitably be too ostentatious and cause trouble.

As for the old clothes, Su Yu decided to wash and dry them, and then return them to the kind-hearted Xie Xinghua intact.

The waiter came over upon hearing the noise and quickly prepared hot water for Su Yu so that she could wash and dress herself.

Then, he served a carefully prepared breakfast: a bowl of steaming rice porridge with a strong aroma, two golden and plump boiled eggs, and several dishes of brightly colored and crispy side dishes.

Su Yu looked at the sumptuous meal in front of him, nodded with satisfaction, and secretly praised in his heart: "The service of this 'Emperor's Room' is really worth the money and lives up to its name."

After breakfast, Su Yu asked the enthusiastic and talkative waiter about the relevant situation of Ning County Medical Clinic.

She remembered that Director Liu had hinted that the precious medicinal materials in her possession could only be sold at an ideal price if she found a strong medical clinic.

When the waiter heard Su Yu's question, he immediately started to talk about it like a treasure trove: "The medical clinics in Ning County all have their own characteristics and advantages. The key is to see whether you need medical treatment or medicine. For example, the one in the east of the city..."

The waiter spoke eloquently, and he was very excited about all the medical clinics. Su Yu listened quietly until he stopped to drink water, then he found the right time to interrupt: "I am not here to seek medical treatment, but I have medicinal herbs to sell."

Seeing that the other party was not a cunning and treacherous person, Su Yu decided to be honest and said bluntly: "The things in my hand are priceless. Only by finding a large medical clinic with deep background and strong financial resources can I sell them at the high price they deserve."

There was determination in her words and she looked at the other person with sharp eyes.

Upon hearing this, the waiter glanced at the basket in her hand, and a scornful smile appeared on his lips. He sneered: "Is that all? Priceless? I think it's just a basket of ordinary dandelions."

His words were full of doubt and disdain for Su Yu's so-called "treasure".

Su Yu secretly cursed the other party's shallowness and ignorance, but on the surface he still maintained an elegant demeanor, and said in a calm but firm tone: "Don't worry about what's in the basket, you just need to answer my questions truthfully."

Her words were gentle, but they carried unquestionable power.

Seeing this, the waiter shrugged his shoulders and replied helplessly: "If we talk about the largest and most financially powerful medical clinic in Ning County, it must be Jishiguan. It is the leader in the medical field of Nanyue. It is said that its name is well-known in the capital, and it has opened several branches in the capital, specializing in collecting rare treasures from the world for the enjoyment of the dignitaries and dignitaries."

His words were full of awe and admiration for the "Ji Shi Guan".

Su Yu heard this, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes. He thought to himself: "This 'Ji Shi Guan' not only has the scale of a chain operation, but also has outstanding strength. The things in my hands must be among the rare treasures. As for the clues about the dragon's roar, such a profound medical center may be able to give us some inspiration."

The anticipation in her heart grew stronger.

Under the enthusiastic guidance of the waiter, Su Yu traveled through the streets and alleys of Ning County, and after a while, he finally arrived at the magnificent Jishiguan.

The clinic stood majestically, with carved beams and painted buildings, flying eaves and brackets. One could sense its extraordinary grandeur just from its appearance.

However, in this prosperous Ning County, such magnificent buildings are common, but they fail to conceal the unique charm of Jishiguan.

Su Yu stepped into the clinic and found that it was just as the waiter had said. This was a holy place for the medicinal materials trade, with sellers coming in an endless stream. They each held precious medicinal materials in their hands, such as the white Fritillaria, the fiery red safflower, the peculiarly shaped Gastrodia elata, the simple-colored Polygonum multiflorum, and some even held a few extremely rare Cordyceps carefully, as if they were holding rare treasures.

Buyers are relatively sparse. They either sit aside and observe the quality of the medicinal materials, or talk in a low voice with the sellers and negotiate the price.

Su Yu followed the bustling crowd and joined the medicine selling team, patiently waiting for the goods to be inspected and appraised.

At this moment, a stern rebuking voice suddenly came from the inner room: "Look at you, how long has it been since you delivered decent goods? The distinguished guests above are already impatient, and you have delivered the least good goods in the past few years! If you don't think of a solution, I'm afraid I can't keep your position!"

The words were full of disappointment and pressure.

Then, a timid voice replied: "Yes, yes, I will try my best to find a solution when I go back."

You also know that my place is remote, so there are no rare treasures there.

In the early years, there were hunters who occasionally brought back some treasures, but now they have all met with misfortune, and I really have nothing I can do...
