CHAPTER 991: CHAPTER 991: ARE YOU EVEN A DOCTOR?

Thinking about having to send him back later, Bai Yi knew that the entire morning was going to be wasted, so he simply took a longer route and brought Feng Liyan to the largest herbal medicine store under the Gu Family name.

But when Feng Liyan recited a bunch of unheard-of herbal names as if he were reading from a textbook, the store clerk was dumbfounded.

"Uh... none of the herbs you mentioned are available here."

"Huh? Are you sure none of them are here?" Bai Yi was stunned for a moment, wondering what this big store even sells if they don’t have those herbs.

"Not only do we not have them, but I’ve never even heard of them." The clerk looked a bit embarrassed.

Bai Yi tilted his head to look at Feng Liyan, thinking that this person might just be a charlatan, pretending to be a doctor but actually just blowing hot air and making things up, right?

Noticing Bai Yi’s skeptical look, Feng Liyan couldn’t be bothered to prove anything and directly asked the clerk, "Can I pick the herbal ingredients myself from the shelves?"

It’s probably not that they don’t have the herbs, but rather that their names are different from what they’re called here.

"Sorry, that’s not allowed." After all, being an employee of the Gu Family, politeness was expected.

"Are you really a doctor? It’s one thing for the herbs you mention not to be sold here, but it’s a bit excessive to have never heard of them." Bai Yi leaned over to Feng Liyan’s ear and whispered.

Feng Liyan felt a bit helpless, thinking, do I really not seem like a proper person?

"Then can you take out all the herbs in the store for me to personally select? I’ll pick, and you pack them, I promise not to touch the herbs directly." Feng Liyan asked again.

"Sir, that’s not the rule."

It’s the first time they’ve encountered someone in a herbal medicine store insisting on picking herbs themselves.

What a joke.

"Sir, without a prescription, if you take the wrong herb and something happens, our store can’t bear the responsibility."

"It’s okay, he’s a doctor himself. He’s picked similar herbs before and won’t make a mistake." Bai Yi chimed in.

Yet the clerk was adamant, refusing outright, and it was only because they were good-looking that he hadn’t shown them the door.

"Perhaps you could try another store, or come back at 3 p.m. Our senior pharmacist will be here then."

Feng Liyan didn’t have the time to wait.

"Call that bastard and have him handle it."

"Which bastard?"

"Jun Moyan, of course."

"Uh..."

This should be the first time someone dared to call the Third Young Master a bastard, and not just once.

Truly a commendable level of courage.

"How should I explain it to the Third Young Master?" Bai Yi took out his phone.

"Tell him honestly. If he can’t even handle this little thing, how does he expect to court our family’s Little Princess?"

"Little Princess? What’s that all about?"

Only then did Feng Liyan realize he had let something slip.

"...Xiao’ai is our Princess. So, got a problem?"

"..." Bai Yi shrugged and dialed Jun Moyan’s number.

After explaining the situation to Jun Moyan, he hung up the call. Within five minutes, the phone in front of the clerk rang.

The clerk answered, asking who was calling.

"Young Master Gu?"

Upon learning the caller’s identity, the clerk’s eyes widened.

Whatever the caller asked, the clerk looked at Feng Liyan and Bai Yi, and kept nodding.

"Yes, yes, yes."

"Right, right, right."

"Alright, alright."

Feng Liyan, with excellent hearing, caught every word Gu Li said to the clerk on the other end.

"Gu Li, the eldest young master of the Gu Family, family friends with the Jun Family, and a friend of the Third Young Master too." Bai Yi leaned over to Feng Liyan and whispered.

Feng Liyan raised an eyebrow, and with a nonchalant tone said, "It seems that Jun Moyan is indeed doing quite well."
