Mr. Gu's little darling is incredibly cool!

"Yuan Yu".

A cold voice rang out, and Yuan Yu looked up from the game.

"You came."

Yuan Yu put down the game console and walked towards Lu Qingyun.

"Sister, aren't you going to play anymore?"

"Sister, let's play one more game. I didn't understand what you did just now."

"Yes, yes, let's play some more, sister."

Several little kids clung to Yuan Yu's legs, their round eyes blinking as they looked at Lu Qingyun with curiosity.

"Would you like to play a game?"

Yuan Yu raised his chin.

Lu Qingyun glanced at the game console and discovered that the game was the currently popular King of Fighters game.

She raised an eyebrow and approached, "Sure."

A few kids gave up their seats for Lu Qingyun, and the two sat on a sidewalk, playing games to their hearts' content.

After playing a few rounds, those kids had already betrayed us.

Yuan Yu squatted down in front of several children, gesturing with her fingers, "Didn't you just say I was the best in the universe? How come you changed your minds so quickly now?"

The kids shook their heads, then looked at Lu Qingyun, "But this older sister is more capable than you."

Okay, might makes right.

This is a truth that even a child can understand.

She inexplicably thought of what Aunt Yuan had said when she left.

"Playing video games again? Can't you learn from your sister?"

Her older sister, Yuan Yi, is very famous in the pharmaceutical association. At 23, she is already a Grade B physician. A few days ago, her mentor kept saying that Yuan Yi's test results this year would definitely be Grade A. The family is very concerned about this matter.

Yesterday's banquet was ostensibly for her grandfather, but in reality, it was to help her sister expand her network of contacts.

Because Yuan Yu enjoys playing computer games and spends all her time at home, this isn't the first time her mother has compared her to her sister.

Seeing Yuan Yu lost in thought, Lu Qingyun raised her hand and waved it in front of her: "What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing much. Do you have anything planned for this afternoon? If not, how about we go shopping together?"

Lu Qingyun was going to buy some medicinal herbs in the afternoon, but it wasn't a rush, so she could accompany Yuan Yu shopping.

She responded, said goodbye to the kids, and the two strolled leisurely to the newly opened shopping mall.

Perhaps because Yuan Yu has a rather open-minded personality, Lu Qingyun and she get along quite well. Because of yesterday's computer-borrowing incident, the two have become inexplicably friendly.

"Medicinal herbs? Why do you need medicinal herbs? Do you know medicine too?"

When Yuan Yu heard Lu Qingyun ask her if there was a medicinal herb market in her area, she raised an eyebrow and asked with some curiosity.

"I know a little."

Just a little bit more.

Yuan Yu's expression was full of disbelief.

"I do know a place; I'll take you there after we're done exploring."

"it is good."

To save herself the trouble of finding a place, Lu Qingyun was naturally happy to be at ease.

The two strolled around the mall. Lu Qingyun didn't seem to want to buy anything, while Yuan Yu, though a homebody, still enjoyed shopping. They ended up shopping for three hours.

It was already past four or five o'clock in the afternoon when we came out of the mall.

"Ah, is it this late already?"

Yuan Yu found that time was passing quite quickly.

She was carrying several shopping bags filled with clothes and bags.

Lu Qingyun came out the same way she went in, with nothing else besides the black bag on her shoulder.

"Is there anything else you want to see?"

Lu Qingyun stared at Yuan Yu with her dark eyes.

"That's all. I'll take you to the medicinal herb market now; it's still open at this hour."

Yuan Yu touched his nose, feeling inexplicably guilty.

Even though they're about the same age, Lu Qingyun's aura is so oppressive, it's like facing her older sister, Yuan Yi.

Lu Qingyun lowered her head to reply to the black car's text message and nodded.

The medicinal herb market was a bit far, so Yuan Yu took a taxi to take Lu Qingyun there.

The medicinal herb market that Yuan Yu took her to wasn't a high-end or fancy one; it was the kind of market that didn't look like a medicinal herb market at all.

"Don't be fooled by the dilapidated appearance of this place; it's actually a hidden paradise."

Yuan Yu was afraid that Lu Qingyun would think she was lying to her, so she explained to her in a low voice.

This is a small alley, like a traditional hutong from decades ago, which has a unique charm.

Lu Qingyun quite liked it here; her brows relaxed, and her tone of voice became a little lighter.

"Do you come here often?"

Yuan Yu shook her head: "It's my sister. I had a fight with my parents that day and ran out in a fit of anger. Then, I wandered around and happened to run into my sister buying medicinal herbs here."

That's how she came to know that even in a big city, there could be such a quiet place that makes people feel comfortable both physically and mentally.

Along the way, this wasn't the first time Lu Qingyun had heard Yuan Yu mention her sister.

She looked away from the food at the roadside stalls, asked no questions, and followed her into a shop that looked even more dilapidated.

A middle-aged man was sitting by the door, smoking. He didn't even look up when he heard the noise at the door. "We're closed."

"Uncle Liu, it's me. I came here with my sister last time."

Yuan Yu and Uncle Liu seem to be quite familiar with each other.

"Oh, it's Xiaoyu. Where's your sister? She hasn't come over for a while. How's your grandfather's health? Did he feel any better after taking that medicine last time?"

Uncle Liu's attitude changed completely when he heard that it was Yuan Yu.

He stopped smoking and stood up with a big smile on his face.

Yuan Yu slowly replied, "My sister recently had a test, which seems to be quite important. She's been staying home in seclusion lately. Thanks to your and Grandpa Liu's medicine, my grandpa has been sleeping much better than before, and he doesn't have that chest tightness and cough anymore."

After chatting for a few minutes, Yuan Yu took Lu Qingyun's arm and said, "Uncle Liu, this is Lu Qingyun, my friend. She knows a bit about medicine and came here today specifically to buy medicinal herbs."

"Oh? You know something about medicine?"

Upon hearing this, Uncle Liu squinted and looked at Lu Qingyun.

His gaze was so oppressive that Yuan Yu felt uncomfortable and deliberately avoided his eyes.

However, Lu Qingyun neither dodged nor avoided the gaze, but stared straight at it openly and honestly.

"Uncle Liu."

She greeted him politely but firmly, then took out a note from her bag and handed it to him: "I need these medicinal herbs, Uncle Liu, do you have any?"

Not bad, this girl seems to have guts, she's not intimidated at all.

Uncle Liu felt a bit more favorably disposed towards Lu Qingyun. He took the paper she handed him, glanced at it, and after a few seconds said, "I have all the medicinal herbs you need. Wait a moment, I'll go get them for you."

This prescription is quite good; it's designed for elderly people who frequently suffer from headaches.

Some people add a strong drug to their prescriptions, which may have a quick effect, but long-term use can lead to dependence, and eventually, the patient may develop an immunity to the drug.

The little girl's prescriptions were different. She mostly used mild tonics, and then added mint, which was the perfect finishing touch.

Uncle Liu took the prescription into the house to get the medicine for Lu Qingyun, and then turned around and asked Yuan Yu to bring people into the house to sit down.
