Compared to him, Zhu Tao was so calm at this moment that even he was surprised.

After pushing the master who was standing there with his mouth wide open, the master and disciple tiptoed to the sofa, looking at each other, not daring to say a word.

They were afraid of angering Chu Jiaojiao, and then the girl would not give them medicine.

Lin Guozheng floated out of the talisman and stared at them silently.

The little girl is really brave. She is not afraid that they are bad people and dares to sleep so soundly.

Sensing his breath, Meng Wuji looked over, his eyes fixed. Just as he was about to take action, Zhu Tao grabbed him and whispered something in his ear.

Meng Wuji suddenly looked in the direction of Lin Guozheng with surprise and a strange expression on his face.

Who is this little girl? Why does she even keep ghosts around her?

In all his years of life, he had never seen a master act so strangely.

But since he was Chu Jiaojiao's man, he couldn't do anything.

The two waited for several hours until noon, when Chu Jiaojiao woke up from hunger. She finally opened her eyes and came out of the room in a daze.

Looking at Zhu Tao and Meng Wuji, he waved at them and said, "Here they come."

After saying that, she touched her stomach and called the front desk to ask them to bring up the food.

Seeing that she was eating so happily, the two of them did not dare to disturb her and waited quietly for her to finish. Meng Wuji finally couldn't help but said, "Young Master, we have already got the herbs. When do you think we can start refining?"

"Now." Chu Jiaojiao stretched, took out a small medicine furnace from her bag and started refining.

Meng Wuji didn't take it seriously at first, but suddenly he noticed something. He paused and leaned forward, his eyes fixed on the patterns on the small medicine furnace, his expression startled.

This, this is...

Medicine King Cauldron!

He looked at Chu Jiaojiao in disbelief. How could this be in her hands?

Isn't this that person's thing?

Chu Jiaojiao was yawning and didn't notice his gaze. She was lazily throwing herbs into the Medicine King Cauldron.

She took a casual look and found that the herbs were much better than those she had bought at the pharmacy before.

But it’s still not as good as the ones grown by the master.

Make do with it.

She was too lazy to exchange pleasantries and was focused on making medicine. She took advantage of the free time to order some takeout and ran to open the door several times. Soon, the coffee table was full.

She never stopped talking, and Meng Wuji had no chance to ask about the confusion in his heart.

In the end, he had forgotten about this matter and just thought that this little girl really could eat.

After practicing for three hours straight, Chu Jiaojiao suddenly collapsed on the sofa, looking hopeless, and wailed, "Money is so hard to earn."

Hearing this, Zhu Tao looked at the medicine she had refined. Refining medicine took a lot of time, and one pot could produce seven or eight pills. He had ordered more than a hundred pills, and it would take more than ten hours to refine them continuously.

He coughed lightly, a little embarrassed, "I'm sorry, I asked for too much, how about I ask for less."

"How can this be!" Chu Jiaojiao sat up with a start, holding her bag tightly with her hands, and said warily, "You're not going to return the money you gave me."

Zhu Tao: “…” Money-grubber!

Meng Wuji was also amused by her. After thinking about it, he felt that the little girl was indeed very tired, so he suggested: "How about doing it in batches? We are not in a hurry. Little Master, just give it to us after you are done."

This is acceptable.

As long as she is not asked to return the money, everything is negotiable.

Chu Jiaojiao relaxed completely.

Meng Wuji took the opportunity to ask, "Little Master, who is your master? To be able to teach you so well, he must be a master."

As he spoke, his eyes swept over the Medicine King Cauldron, as if thinking about something.

Unexpectedly, Chu Jiaojiao lowered her eyebrows and said, "I don't have a master."

"How is that possible?" Meng Wuji didn't believe it.

Chu Jiaojiao blinked, "Maybe it's because I'm a genius."

Meng Wuji: “…”

Forget it, she didn't want to say it and he couldn't force her to answer.

An hour later, Meng Wuji and Zhu Tao rushed to the Chinese medicine hospital with the medicine. He urgently needed to verify the efficacy of the medicine.

The medicine for Wang Chunhua was also prepared. Chu Jiaojiao called Zhou Ning and asked him to come and get the medicine.

Zheng Yue also came with her. He looked at her and burst into laughter. When he saw the takeout box on the coffee table, he looked at her with some disapproval.

"Eating junk food all the time is bad for your health."

He was used to being a teacher, and he would teach her as soon as he opened his mouth. Chu Jiaojiao immediately showed pain on her face and threatened: "If you say that again, I won't give you medicine."

Zheng Yue choked and dared not say anything, but his eyes expressed his meaning.

Chu Jiaojiao quickly gave them the medicine and was about to leave.

Seeing her like this, Zhou Ning couldn't help laughing. He handed her the lunch box and said, "I brought you some food. Do you want to try it?"

Chu Jiaojiao's words to chase him away were immediately stuck in her throat. She leaned over to take a look and asked, "What did you cook? Is it delicious?"

"It's okay, try it."

As he spoke, he opened the lunch box, and a rich aroma instantly wafted out. Chu Jiaojiao couldn't help swallowing.

He made sweet and sour spare ribs, stir-fried bok choy and fish soup, and the dishes looked delicious.

"Then I won't be polite." Chu Jiaojiao started eating it. After taking a bite, she gave him a thumbs up and said, "Delicious, delicious!"

Seeing that she liked it, Zhou Ning was also very happy. "I happen to live nearby. I'll come and bring you food every day. It's not good to always eat takeout."

As he spoke, he glanced at Chu Jiaojiao and frowned slightly.

Zheng Yue said that she was the daughter of the richest man, but she was very thin and her hair was a little yellow. She looked malnourished and looked almost the same as him, a poor person.

How could this be?

Chu Jiaojiao was about to nod when she heard his words, but then she thought of something and said cautiously, "Are you going to take this opportunity to give me extra lessons?"

It’s impossible to learn, I’ll never be able to do it in this lifetime!

Zhou Ning did have this idea, but seeing how resistant she was, he didn't want to say it out loud.

Forget it, I'll make it up to her when school starts.

Thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "No."

That's good.

Chu Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you very much. By the way, please make more. I can eat it."

As she spoke, she pointed to a few boxes on the coffee table and said, "This is the amount of food I need for one meal."

Zhou Ning looked at it carefully, nodded, and remembered it.

The food he cooks is quite delicious. It would be so great if I could eat it every day.

However, Chu Jiaojiao soon changed her mind.

The next day, when Zhou Ning came to deliver food to Chu Jiaojiao, he knocked on the door for a long time before she opened it.

He was about to speak, but the moment he saw her face, his expression changed instantly.

Chu Jiaojiao was seen holding her stomach, looking pale, and pointing at him weakly.

"Zhou Ning, did you poison me?"
