Upon hearing Ji Mingjing's words, Gu Chenye guessed that there was more to the story.

Either Ji Mingjing never agreed to his request, or his fourth brother's sharp tongue made Ji Mingjing go back on his word.

Gu Yunzhen raised an eyebrow at Ji Mingjing: "Are you envious?"

Ji Mingjing said sarcastically, "What do you have to envy? Aren't you shameless?"

"Tsk." Gu Yunzhen's handsome face remained calm, as if he wasn't the one being called shameless, and he even took the initiative: "Let's continue after we finish eating."

"..."

Ji Mingjing didn't sleep all night, who has time to continue talking to him?

A moment later, he looked at Gu Si with a half-smile: "I'll take you somewhere tomorrow, dare to go?"

Gu Yunzhen's thin lips uttered two words: "How long?"

Ji Mingjing snorted coldly: "What, are you short of breath from being away from your wife for too long?"

Gu Yunzhen raised an eyebrow: "You already know, why are you asking?"

Ji Mingjing: "..."

That shameless bastard!

He picked up his breakfast and left the dining room.

"Don't go, I've finished eating. Here's the dining room for you." Gu Yunzhen wiped her mouth clean, got up and left.

Ji Mingjing, unable to bear it any longer, said: "Go and stay at a hotel."

As Gu Yunzhen reached the dining room door, he turned back and said, "Aren't we supposed to leave together tomorrow? Besides, I don't have the money to stay in a hotel. My wife manages our family's finances."

Does he think he'll die if he doesn't show off his wife for even a minute?

Ji Mingjing stared coldly at him with his narrow eyes and uttered a single word: "Get lost!"

After finishing breakfast, Shangguan Wu went to the pharmacy in the backyard.

The pharmacy was built for her by Gu Yunzhen. It has a complete range of Chinese herbal medicines, making it convenient for her to prepare medicines.

Yan Yirou's words yesterday gave her a bit of inspiration.

Western medicine comes in capsules, and traditional Chinese medicine comes in pills. Her Chinese medicine pharmacy can also make Chinese medicine into pills or oral liquids for patients to carry conveniently.

Shangguan Wu plans to turn the prescription left by her master into pills or oral liquid.

Once she has produced the finished product, she will need a pharmaceutical factory. If she wants to start production as soon as possible, the most direct way is to acquire a well-managed pharmaceutical factory.

But this kind of pharmaceutical factory shouldn't go bankrupt, right?

During his break, Shangguan Wu called Du Wei and instructed him to investigate pharmaceutical factories in the capital and surrounding cities.

"Yes, Miss."

Du Wei responded.

Just as he was about to hang up, Shangguan Wu called out, "Wait. Also check the pharmaceutical factories near Changteng City. It doesn't matter if they're small. The key is to look at their management system from top to bottom, as well as their medicinal materials. Do they have a fixed source and grade of medicinal materials?"

"Yes, is there anything else you need, Miss?" Du Wei asked.

"That's all. Go get to work."

Shangguan Wu hung up the phone.

After a ten-minute break, she continued making medicine.

Not long after, her phone rang.

Looking at the caller ID, Shangguan Wu froze in surprise.

A moment later, she answered the phone: "Hello."

"Fourth Young Madam, I am Yu Wan. Do you remember me?"

Yu Wan's voice on the phone sounded anxious.

When you hear this kind of sound, you'll usually ask what's wrong and if you need help.

But Shangguan Wu narrowed her eyes and said in a light tone, "Of course I remember!"

After a two-second silence on the phone, Yu Wan pleaded, "I'm sorry, Fourth Young Madam, I know I shouldn't bother you, but my mother has fallen ill, and I'd like to ask you to save her. Please!"

Fu Lin is sick?

Shangguan Wu's first reaction was disbelief, and then she started recording.

"Was he taken to the hospital? What did the doctor say?"

"The doctor told us to prepare for the worst, but I don't want my mother to die. She's my only family left. Fourth Young Madam, I beg you, please help me one more time."

Yu Wan's sobbing voice pierced through the air, filled with despair: "I'll do anything you ask, just save my mother, I beg you."

"Is your aunt in the hospital?" Shangguan Wu asked, feigning concern, as she left the pharmacy and returned to the villa.

Yu Wan broke down in tears, saying, "Yu Hao has already taken my mother home from the hospital!"

In response, Shangguan Wu could only regretfully say, "Yu Wan, if you're in the hospital, I can still help a little, but if you're at home, please forgive me for being unable to help."

Yu Wan didn't understand: "Why? Is there a difference between the hospital and my home?"

Shangguan Wu made up an excuse: "My husband won't let me go to the Yu family."

Yu Wan: "???" She found this reason ridiculous. Did her Yu family have some kind of monster in them?

"But lives are at stake, Fourth Young Master should understand you..."

Before Yu Wan could finish speaking, Shangguan Wu interrupted her: "No, I can't let my husband be unhappy."

But we're friends. You can take your aunt to my traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy, but I can't guarantee she'll survive. I can only say I'll do my best.

In the book, Fu Lin lived almost until the very end before being killed by Gu Yunzhen.

It's completely unbelievable to say that her life is in danger!

Shangguan Wu was certain that this was one of Fu Lin's actions!

The first step was to lure her out of the seemingly impregnable Gu residence.

She chose to play along, letting Fu Lin leave the Yu family and then taking action on the way.

It was just that Yu Wan was destined to be disappointed.

"Thank you, I knew you could do it, you're a little miracle doctor!"

Yu Wan was extremely excited, as if she had grasped a lifeline. After thanking them, she said, "I'll take my mother to the Chinese medicine pharmacy to find you right away!"

After the call ended, Shangguan Wu immediately contacted Gu Chenye.

"Third Brother, I just received a call from Yu Wan. She said the doctor told her to prepare for Fu Lin's funeral. She begged me to come here, so I told her to take Fu Lin to the traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy."
