Xie Li could also tell that the person in charge was not the two security guards, but the middle-aged man who had just come out. The man's assistant had been watching this side the whole time, so the security guards obviously needed to be told what to do.
"It's nothing." Xie Li didn't take it seriously, but leaving was definitely not an option. "We're not here to play around, we're here to find someone. I'm looking for Pharmacist Chen."
When Pharmacist Xie saw that the two security guards had returned, the two internet celebrities were still standing there.
His face immediately darkened, and the boss was clearly displeased: "What's going on? You don't even dare to kick out two internet celebrities?"
The security guard explained, "Those two girls came to see Pharmacist Chen."
After all, Pharmacist Chen was a highly regarded alchemist in the Xie family, and he still held a certain prestige in the traditional Chinese medicine base.
Upon hearing this, Pharmacist Xie's eyes were full of mockery: "No wonder Pharmacist Chen has been unable to advance to the intermediate alchemist level. It turns out he's wasting all his energy on internet celebrities. He's really getting more and more decadent."
"You don't need to give Pharmacist Chen any face. Just say it was my order that he must be driven away. Otherwise, all sorts of Tom, Dick, and Harry will flock to the TCM base. What do they think the TCM base is?"
The two security guards were immediately in a dilemma.
Assistant: "Didn't you hear what Pharmacist Xie said? Don't you know that Miss Ziyuan and Pharmacist Xie are in power in the Xie family now? Do you dare to offend Pharmacist Xie?"
The two security guards naturally dared not, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and ask Xie Li and the others to leave.
While the two sides were communicating, Pharmacist Xie glanced at them lazily and disdainfully.
He was curious to know what kind of person this Pharmacist Chen was, who was known for his aloofness and detachment from worldly desires, that made him disregard his reputation and bring him to the TCM base.
After taking one look, Pharmacist Xie was stunned.
Xie Li happened to turn his head and glance in their direction.
The girl's face was completely exposed to Xie Yaoshi in the sunlight.
Pharmacist Xie felt as if her heart had been struck by lightning at that moment. Such beauty, such beauty, was simply unseen before!
Before I could react, I heard the assistant say, "Pharmacist Xie, the car has arrived."
Pharmacist Xie watched as the two girls cooperated and walked to the side. He got into the car in a daze, and only after he was seated did he slowly come back to his senses.
Why should only Chen Yaoshi possess such stunning beauty, and not him?
The car had already slowly driven away when Pharmacist Xie suddenly spoke up: "Stop the car!"
The assistant, sitting in the passenger seat, turned around in confusion. "Pharmacist Xie, what's wrong?"
Pharmacist Xie silently pushed open the door and got out of the car. He had just taken a step towards the gate when Pharmacist Chen came out to greet him.
He paused for a moment, then said calmly, "It's nothing." He turned and got into the car, instructing the driver to start the car.
He could directly compete with Pharmacist Chen for medicinal herbs, but he couldn't compete with Pharmacist Chen for a woman at the TCM base. It would be beneath his dignity to do that for an actress.
He needs to think of a good way to do it behind the scenes.
——
When Pharmacist Chen learned that Xie Li had almost been driven away, he immediately felt a little guilty.
"I'm sorry, I was held up by something and couldn't get here in time. I'm sorry you had to go through this."
He unconsciously started using honorifics when speaking to Xie Li.
Xie Li didn't seem to care much and said directly to Pharmacist Chen, "I heard you've concocted the Heart-Fragrant Soup? This Sister Jiang isn't feeling well, could you please get her a couple of doses to help her recover?"
Xie Li didn't mean to take advantage of others; she just happened to be there today. Otherwise, she could have made it herself, since the Heart Soup wasn't anything complicated.
But Wu Jiang's expression was somewhat complicated; he seemed to be in pain.
