Walking in the splendid banquet hall, Lin Li suddenly felt a little funny. He had not expected the red-haired beauty to suddenly apologize to him, let alone ask to be his disciple. In Lin Li's opinion, this request was ridiculous to the extreme!
To be honest, Lin Li was not a stingy person, nor did he have the habit of being stingy. Otherwise, he would not have tried his best to guide Andoine back in the Sunset Mountains. Strictly speaking, Andoine really had no talent in pharmaceutics. He was already over a hundred years old, but he could not even remember the simplest potion formula. He was also clumsy when it came to making potions, and would often blow up the pharmaceutical lab.
In comparison, Rowling, who was proficient in medical skills, was actually more suitable to be Lin Li's student. There were too many similarities between medical skills and pharmaceutics. Lin Li could even be sure that as long as he was willing to guide her with all his might, Rowling, who had excellent medical skills at such a young age, would probably be able to achieve good results in pharmaceutics in less than a year.
But Lin Li did not want to teach her at all, because the incident at McGrenn's house had left a bad impression on him.
Probably because of different experiences, Lin Li had always felt that there was nothing more precious than life in this world. Any life should be respected enough, especially as a doctor, who should absolutely respect the patient's life.
Fundamentally, Lin Li was actually an introverted person. He preferred to keep things in his heart. Unless he was like Cromwell, repeatedly provoking him, or even directly spitting saliva on his face, Lin Li generally would not show any extreme behavior.
Lin Li could tolerate many things, such as Rowling's self-righteous character.
He could even understand this character. Self-righteousness was the patent of beauties, not to mention that Rowling was the castellan's daughter.
However, she shouldn't have used this kind of self-righteousness on her patients. This was what Lin Li really couldn't tolerate. A self-righteous doctor would always bring misfortune and disaster to her patients, no matter how profound her pharmaceutical knowledge was.
After experiencing the incredible transmigration, Lin Li's mind had long matured. He was completely past the age of being dazzled by beauty. Not to mention that he was not the kind of person who could not move when he saw a beautiful woman. Rowling might be incomparably beautiful in the eyes of others, but in Lin Li's eyes, she was just a quack who almost harmed her own patient.
Lin Li did not feel any psychological burden rejecting a little redheaded beauty …
However, be it Lin Li, who was relieved, or Rowling, who was secretly crying, none of them noticed that the scene that happened in this secluded corner had been witnessed by a young man.
"Mr. Anthony, do you know this magician?" The young man looked to be in his twenties. His face was handsome and fair, and he had a head of gorgeous blonde hair that was as dazzling as sunlight under the crystal chandelier. He wore a well-tailored formal attire, and from the exquisite workmanship, it must have been made by a famous master. He didn't wear any accessories, only a ruby ring on the ring finger of his right hand.
He just stretched out his right hand and pointed at Lin Li frivolously. The ruby reflected a pure and dazzling light under the crystal light.
"He looks a little unfamiliar, but he seems to have come with Mage Kevin. He should be his attendant or apprentice or something …" Although he didn't know the true identity of this young man, Anthony maintained a respectful attitude throughout the conversation. This was because this young man was introduced by the Castellan from the capital of Felan Kingdom, and from the way they talked and behaved, Anthony could clearly see that they were not ordinary people.
Since the rise of the Guild of Magic, the Rolin Family had shown signs of going downhill. Seeing that they had been pushed to the periphery of the 11 mage families, and even the head thief dared to compete with them for the Arcane Magic Potion at the auction, Anthony was anxious. He had come to the banquet this time with the intention of making friends with the Castellan. In addition, when he heard that this young man was from the capital, Anthony was even more flattering and enthusiastic in his speech and behavior …
It was a pity that the Castellan had revealed too little information, and this young man was very secretive about his origins. So far, Anthony only knew that his name was Bathrilor, and he was from the capital of Felan Kingdom, Alanna.
"Is that so …" Bathrilor nodded and did not continue to ask. He only excused himself and walked to Lin Li with a glass of red wine.
"Don't you think you should apologize to Miss Rowling?"
"Huh?" Lin Li was absent-mindedly thinking when he suddenly heard someone talking to him. From the sound of that voice, it seemed to be a stranger. Lin Li could not help but turn his head in confusion, only to see a handsome young man standing in front of him with a look that Lin Li did not like …
It was an undisguised sense of superiority, just like when Cromwell had told him, "Our Merlin Family still has a say in the Guild of Magic" …
"Do I know you?" Lin Li had always hated things like superiority, so naturally, he was not very polite in his words. He just glanced at Bathrilor from the corner of his eyes. His expression was as if he was looking at an object or a mass of air.
"You don't have to know me." Bathrilor's expression was still full of superiority. "Of course, you're not qualified to know me. It's a great honor for a little mage like you to have the opportunity to walk into this banquet hall. Why don't you know how to behave yourself? Before pestering Miss Rowling, haven't you looked in the mirror to see who you are? "
"When did I pester her?" Lin Li's eyes widened in anxiety when he heard this, and his heart was full of grievances. He wanted to ask Rowling, "Did I pester you?"
"You didn't pester Miss Rowling? Do you want to tell me that it was Miss Rowling who pestered you? " Bathrilor scoffed at Lin Li's sophistry, and his handsome and fair face was full of a disdainful smile.
"Nonsense!" Lin Li rolled his eyes and decided to ignore him. He thought to himself that this man might have some psychological problems. He should suggest that he see a doctor another day …
