Elder Yu did not reply to Shopkeeper Zhao, his shrewd eyes looking deeply at Ling Yu: "Miss, in our Hundred Herb Hall, whether you're a commoner or an official, there are no exceptions! If you forcefully use your power to oppress others, then from now on, our Hundred Herb Hall will no longer welcome you! "
"You …"
Ling Yu's little face paled in anger. She never thought that with the Ling family in power, a mere doctor would dare to speak to her like this! This was simply too much!
"Alright, remember this, I, Ling Yu, swear to avenge this! When the time comes, don't blame me for not reminding you before! "
However, after saying those words, Elder Yu closed his eyes once more. No matter how furious Ling Yu was, he didn't look at her again …
"Miss, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, I'll get the medicine for you now."
After Ling Yu left, Shopkeeper Zhao said apologetically.
"Shopkeeper, is this your Hundred Herb Hall's chief doctor?"
Gu Ruoyun's gaze swept over and fell on Elder Yu, the corners of her lips curling into a faint smile as she asked.
"This …" Shopkeeper Zhao was stunned for a moment, and carefully looked at the old man resting with his eyes closed. Seeing that the other did not have any reaction, he then said: "Miss, this is Senior Yu, he's also … a doctor of our Hundred Herb Hall."
"Oh," Gu Ruoyun lightly stroked her chin, "I don't think his medical skills are very good, otherwise, why can't he even remove a simple scar?"
"What did you say?"
Elder Yu suddenly opened his eyes and sneered: "A simple scar? You make it sound so simple! If it's just removing a scar, it's not very difficult, but if it's within a day, that's impossible. Whether it's an injury or an illness, it needs time to heal. "
"If your skills aren't good, then your skills aren't good. Can't you just admit it?"
"Miss!"
Seeing Elder Yu's expression grow uglier and uglier, Shopkeeper Zhao hurriedly interrupted Gu Ruoyun: "Miss, don't say anymore. Elder Yu's medical skills are obvious to all, even the Emperor's imperial physicians can't compare to him."
"Is that so?" Gu Ruoyun laughed mockingly, but an imperceptible glint flashed across her clear eyes, "If Elder Yu's medical skills are really that good, do you dare to compete with this junior?"
"Alright!"
Elder Yu slammed the table and stood up, staring coldly at Gu Ruoyun: "How do you want to compete?"
"Very simple! If I lose, not only will I apologize to you, I will also admit that your medical skills are the best in the world. If you lose, then … I want this Hundred Herb Hall to be mine. "
Gu Ruoyun waved her sleeves and sat down. Her delicate face carried a determined smile.
Elder Yu stared blankly for a while, then laughed out loud: "Girl, you really have a big mouth, wanting this Hundred Herb Hall the moment you open your mouth! You don't have the strength to obtain Hundred Herb Hall! "
"What?" Gu Ruoyun played with her hair and smiled, "Would the great Hundred Herb Hall not have the courage to compete with a little girl like me? Or are you afraid of losing, Elder Yu? "
"Lost? Hmph, I, Elder Yu, have never known what it feels like to lose! It's just that Hundred Herb Hall isn't mine, so I can't make the decision. If you really want to compete with me, let me ask Young Master first before deciding! "
Actually, Gu Ruoyun had already guessed Elder Yu's identity. Seeing the shopkeeper's attitude towards him, he was definitely not an ordinary doctor. But even if his position in Hundred Herb Hall was high, he was at most a steward or an Elder. And her goal was the person behind Hundred Herb Hall.
Moreover, she had just arrived, so she needed a force to back her up!
Hundred Herb Hall was undoubtedly the best choice!
Most importantly, if she could subdue Hundred Herb Hall, she wouldn't need to worry about medicinal ingredients in the future.
