Chapter 461 Studying for Lu Yi

Riverside No. 9.

Qin Mu sat in front of the computer in the study, briefly browsing the email sent by Xiao Chen, but his Bluetooth headset was connected to a call with Xiao Li.

"Director Qin, the live broadcast account has been found. The owner is called Chen Qian. According to him, a woman named Lin Yan gave him 30,000 yuan to start this live broadcast. He didn't know the specific purpose, but he heard Lin Yan gritted her teeth and said that she wanted to ruin Director An's reputation." Xiao Li reported.

Qin Mu tapped the table unconsciously with the tip of his pen.

Lin Yan...there seems to be no such person in the Beijing circle.

An Xiaoran had never mentioned this person to him.

How big is the grudge that is worth Lin Yan planning a scheme at the cost of human life to ruin An Xiaoran's reputation?

Not hearing Qin Mu speak, Xiao Li continued, "Boss Qin, Young Master Lu seems to be investigating this Lin Yan as well. Is it possible that Lin Yan is just a pawn, and the real mastermind behind this is someone else?"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Qin Mu took a sip of coffee and said calmly, "Since Lu Heng is investigating, let him investigate."

Lu Heng has more methods, so the information he finds will be more detailed.

Since someone is willing to help, why should he waste his time?

"Has Ruiming encountered any obstacles in the project he is currently promoting?"

"Everything is going smoothly. Our subsidiary Tianyi Games' new game, 'Dream Summit,' will be launched the day after tomorrow. Mr. An and Ms. Meng Yushu will be the spokespersons. We still need to wait for them to schedule a time to shoot a promotional video together. Tianzhen Film and Television Special Effects is currently working on the post-production of an animated film and hasn't encountered any problems.

"As for Ruiming headquarters, the chip research institute has moved back to the headquarters building. Confidentiality is extremely high, so it's unlikely that anything will go wrong. All other miscellaneous matters are handled by Mu Yuqin and the board of directors."

It sounds very stable, nothing to worry about. Qin Mu hummed, and then said: "Keep an eye on Wilt, and contact me in time if there is any situation."

"Understood." Xiao Li responded, glanced at the calendar on the table, and reminded: "Director Qin, the visit application submitted by Director An has been approved. The day after tomorrow is the visiting day."

"Got it, I'll pick her up."

…

When the first ray of morning light slanted down on the blue bricks of the elegant hall, Meng Anran was already practicing Tai Chi with her master in the yard.

The pharmacy was filled with the rich aroma of Chinese medicine, with a hint of bitterness and a hint of sweetness.

"What are you boiling in the pharmacy again?" Zhao Cizheng took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.

"It's medicine for clearing the liver and improving eyesight. Your eyesight has been not so good recently, so you need to adjust it." Meng Anran's boxing movements were slow, and he had to adjust his breathing while speaking.

Zhao Ci Zheng spread her feet shoulder-width apart, let her hands hang naturally, closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and gradually stopped.

Then he stood up straight, put his hands behind his back, and looked at Meng Anran like an old cadre, "My eyes are not caused by liver fire, and those medicines are useless."

"Clearing the liver and improving eyesight are two different effects." Meng Anran's movements were relaxed but not slack, tense but not stiff, and he answered calmly, "I made this recipe myself. You can try it."

"Hmph, you've only learned the basics, and you still dare to make medicine for me?" Zhao Cizheng shook his sleeves, turned his head away and walked leisurely into the house, "Then I'll give it a try."

Meng Anran couldn't help laughing. Sometimes she felt that her master's arrogant look was quite cute, like a funny guy.

She followed Zhao Ci Zheng into the main room and sat down next to him.

The master and disciple drank some tea and rested for a while before preparing for today's teaching content.

When talking about medicine, Zhao Cizheng's expression was always particularly serious. He said in a deep voice, "Today I will start teaching you how to detoxify. If you want to learn how to detoxify, you must first understand poisons. Those who understand poisons must be able to mix poisons."

He took out a yellowed medical book and handed it to Meng Anran: "Poison is one of the most complex subjects in Traditional Chinese Medicine. There are tens of millions of poisons in the world, including plant toxins such as Amanita phalloides and Aconitum, or chemical toxins such as arsenic. Different poisons have different solutions. When taking the pulse, you need to determine the type of poison and then prescribe the right medicine..."

Meng Anran flipped through the book while listening to Zhao Cizhen's explanation. She even opened a new notebook to record the knowledge about poisons.

Zhao Cizhen's explanation was vivid and colorful. Not only did he explain the boring text in the book, he also cited many different examples.

First, let Meng Anran think about what medicine to use in this situation, and then tell her how to match the medicinal materials and what effects they have.

Meng Anran listened attentively, not feeling bored at all, and was even more focused than usual.

Zhao Ci Zheng looked at his apprentice who was taking notes with his head down, feeling melancholy.

In fact, he had always known that his apprentice did not like medicine.

I am willing to return to Yatang to continue studying medicine with him. First, I want to repay his kindness and hope that his medical skills can be passed on. Second, I have experienced a lot during this period and want to have medical skills to deal with emergencies.

She has always been very responsible in doing things. Whether she likes it or not, once she decides to do something, she must do it to the best of her ability.

So he devoted himself to studying, and even though he had no interest in it, he still read medical books and practiced making medicines every day.

But this was the first time that Zhao Cizhen saw the desire for medicine in her eyes.

He thought it was probably because of Lu Yi.

The poison in Lu Yi could not be cured by conventional means. She had seen Lu Yi lying on the bed twitching madly, and had experienced the feeling of powerlessness when facing life and death but being unable to do anything.

When it comes to "poison", she wants to try her best to acquire more knowledge.

Zhao Ci Zheng's eyes softened. The little apprentice who was as cold and ruthless as a machine forged by a program has now truly learned the word "love".

I started to care about connections between people, and I was able to sense other people's emotions and give feedback.

Meng Anran's notes were neat and clear. She paused and looked up at Zhao Cizheng. "Master, please continue. Is the antidote for the herb aconite poison the same for everyone? Is there anything that needs to be adjusted in the recipe?"

Zhao Cizheng came back to her senses and said, "It's almost noon. Let's take a break and have lunch before continuing."

"Oh..." Meng Anran blinked, not noticing it was already eleven o'clock. She closed her notebook and tidied up the desk. "Then I'll go to the kitchen and see if I can help you."

Watching her run away, Zhao Ci Zheng chuckled and shook her head helplessly.

The young apprentice not only learned to be more sensitive, but also became more lively, like a girl in her early twenties.

There was a sudden knock on the redwood door, and a voice called out from outside: "Is Mr. Zhao here? I'm Ma Zhuo!"

Apprentice Zhao Ning ran to open the door, "Secretary Ma, why are you here at this hour?"

Ma Zhuo's face was full of smiles as he walked over the threshold carrying a few bags of things. "I came here specially to thank Mr. Zhao and An Ran."

He walked into the main room with familiarity, and when he saw Zhao Cizhen drinking tea inside, his smile immediately turned into tears of emotion.

"Mr. Zhao!" He almost fell to his knees, but fortunately Zhao Ning was quick to grab him.

"What are you doing? I'm in good health, don't kneel in front of me." Zhao Cizheng put down the teacup and waved his hand, "Sit down. We've known each other for so many years, and you're still doing this nonsense."

Ma Zhuo wiped his tears with emotion, "Luckily you and An Ran arrived in time yesterday, otherwise... Ah Xiu might have stepped into the gates of hell and never come back."

"You say these things, don't you want to pay the medical fee?" Zhao Ci Zheng joked seriously.

Ma Zhuo suddenly stopped feeling sad and said with a smile, "How could that be? I'll never forget your kindness. I can't afford anything nice either, so I went downtown this morning and bought a roast duck and some walnut cakes as a present to you."

"Tsk, I already have an apprentice, I don't need your filial piety." Although saying so, Zhao Ci Zheng gave Zhao Ning a look and accepted both the roast duck and walnut cakes.

Ma Zhuo sighed. "Speaking of An Ran, I still have to apologize to her. Who would have thought that she would be scolded online for saving my wife yesterday?"

"What?" Zhao Cizheng's face suddenly darkened. "My disciple was scolded?!"
