After Lu Qiuyu left, Wen Qingcheng came to the door of the study room, poked her head in, and saw that Mo Jinghong was in a bad mood. Mo Jinghong's obvious preference for her, under the instigation of Wang Yunxi, must have made someone have a problem with Mo Jinghong. When she saw Master Lu's dark face when he left, she knew that the two of them could not reach an agreement.

Mo Jinghong saw Wen Qingcheng looking at him with a pair of bright eyes, and a smile instantly appeared on his face. He waved his hand, motioning her to come in.

"Brother Mo...is it because of me?"

"Don't think too much, just stay here and develop medicines. I order no one to disturb you." Mo Jinghong knew that Lu Qiuyu didn't come here to represent the pharmacists under him for giving Wen Qingcheng the best treatment. Lu Qiuyu had long been resentful of Mo Jinghong, and he just came to him about Wen Qingcheng. Mo Jinghong knew whether Lu Qiuyu was loyal to the He family or not. It was just that he hadn't found someone to replace Lu Qiuyu yet, so he didn't touch him for the time being.

Wen Qingcheng is not afraid of being isolated or criticized by others. She has long been accustomed to loneliness. She enjoys the freedom and happiness brought by being alone.

Seeing that Wen Qingcheng didn't say anything, Mo Jinghong thought she was worried that people from the He family would gossip about her. Mo Jinghong didn't hide his preference for her at all. He just wanted everyone to know that Wen Qingcheng was someone he cared about. "Cheng'er, you have the final say in everything at Changchunyuan. If you need help, you can choose the one you like."

Wen Qingcheng's eyes sparkled, "Brother Mo, thank you, I will definitely not let you down."

Mo Jinghong is working hard for the two of them to be together forever, and Wen Qingcheng is also working hard. If she can reach the level of Lu Qiuyu in the He family, she can be among the nobles. Lu Qiuyu is a genius and celebrity in the pharmaceutical industry, and is very popular. What Wen Qingcheng has to do is to become Lu Qiuyu, surpass Lu Qiuyu, and narrow the gap between her and Mo Jinghong little by little.

She knew that in order to be with her, Mo Jinghong could give up everything in Kyoto, including the He family and the position of the crown prince. He could even stay in Yueya Village and be an ordinary person for the rest of his life. However, how could Wen Qingcheng let him give up everything in order to be compatible with her? Since she had decided to love him, she would do it no matter how hard it was. One day, they would get closer and closer.

Mo Jinghong knew Wen Qingcheng's personality very well, but he didn't want her to work too hard. In his opinion, Wen Qingcheng didn't have to do anything. As long as she stayed in He's company and could see her every day, he would be very happy.

"I have to go to the palace tomorrow. You stay here obediently. I have left shadow guards to protect you in secret. If anything happens, wait until I come back."

When Wen Qingcheng heard him talking about Shadow Guard, she thought of the wounded Hidden Bat, wondering how he was doing now. While Wen Qingcheng was deep in thought, a big hand suddenly pulled her face back. "Don't think about other men!"

Wen Qingcheng's eyes flashed with embarrassment when her secret was exposed. She smiled and said, "No."

The two talked for a while before Mo Jinghong was reluctant to leave. Wen Qingcheng counted the instruments and studied them for a while. Although the instruments here were very sophisticated, they were not as advanced as those in her laboratory.

It just so happened that she was the only one here now, so she could boldly take out the instruments in the space and use them. Now that winter was approaching, it was the peak season for colds, so Wen Qingcheng planned to make some granules to treat colds.

She took out a device from the space, which contained various books she had downloaded from the cloud in her previous life, and found the formula and preparation method for treating colds. She also cut some paper and listed the required medicinal materials on it.

Wen Qingcheng took the material list to He's medicinal materials department to collect the raw materials. When passing by a rockery in the garden, she heard a woman scolding from the rockery. Wen Qingcheng stopped and through the holes in the rockery, she found two women in their 17s and 18s wearing green Confucian robes scolding a girl in her 16s and 17s wearing lavender cloth.

Wen Qingcheng knew that in the He family, those wearing green Confucian robes were junior pharmacists, those wearing yellow were mid-level pharmacists, those wearing white were senior pharmacists, and those wearing lavender cloth shirts were ordinary pharmacists. Pharmacists were also divided into first to third grades. The last of the third grade, this girl was wearing a short purple cloth shirt, and she was a third-grade pharmacist, that is, a handyman.

I only heard the tall, thin woman in green say, "You're being lazy again! Is the water tank full? We're still waiting for the moistening medicine in the afternoon. Can you afford to delay the work?"

The purple-shirted girl replied weakly, "The water tank was full early this morning, but my shoulder was scraped. I just went to Pharmacist Peng to get some ointment and was about to go back and apply it. I'm not being lazy."

Another short and fat woman in green asked sternly, "You went to Pharmacist Peng for no reason and wanted to be his assistant. You didn't even consider whether you are qualified or not. Whether you can become a pharmacist depends on your family background. Does your family have any inheritance? Humph, the daughter of a dung carrier is trying to climb up the social ladder."

The tall, thin woman in green laughed sarcastically, "Pick your water carefully and stop daydreaming. If I see you trying to be clever again, I'll smack you in the face!"

Wen Qingcheng frowned at the other side of the rockery. This must be workplace bullying. Suddenly, she remembered the bitterness of working as a handyman at Wang's. Wen Qingcheng could empathize with the purple-clothed girl. She didn't think it was shameful to look for opportunities to move up.

Wen Qingcheng watched as the tall, thin green-shirted woman stretched out her finger and fiercely tapped the purple-shirted girl's forehead. Afterwards, the two green-shirted women spat at the purple-shirted girl before leaving triumphantly.

After the two girls left, the purple-shirted girl squatted on the ground and started crying. After crying for a few times, she raised her hand to wipe her tears and was about to leave. Wen Qingcheng walked around the rockery and called out from behind, "Girl, please stay..."

The purple-shirted girl looked back with tears in her eyes when she saw Wen Qingcheng wearing a yellow skirt. She vaguely thought she was a mid-level pharmacist and hurried over to pay her respects.

Wen Qingcheng hurriedly said, "Don't be polite, I'm new here." Wen Qingcheng did not have He's work clothes, but she happened to be wearing a goose yellow jacket and skirt today, which was somewhat similar to the attire of He's intermediate pharmacists.

In He's company, only Mr. He, Mo Jinghong, Mr. He II, Mr. He III, Lu Qiuyu, and other senior executives did not need to wear work clothes. Mo Jinghong specifically instructed that Wen Qingcheng did not need to wear work clothes, and could just wear plain clothes like Lu Qiuyu.

The purple-shirted girl then realized that she had never seen Wen Qingcheng before. The yellow coat and skirt she was wearing was not the attire of a mid-level pharmacist of the He family. Not knowing her rank, she did not dare to address her casually. "What's your name, young lady?"
