He never thought that the boss of Hundred Herb Hall would be such a young girl. It was also hard to imagine that she was the one who had organized this pill auction that would shock the entire mainland.
She was simply too young!
So young that it was unbelievable.
"You're the boss of Hundred Herb Hall?" Ba Zhentian quickly recovered from his shock and asked in a doubtful tone.
"That's right."
Gu Ruoyun smiled at Ba Zhentian, her fingers lightly brushing the teacup on the table: "Elder Yu, pour some tea for him."
"No need." Ba Zhentian waved his hand and asked directly, "Miss, let's not beat around the bush. Why are you looking for me?"
"It's nothing much. I just admire Leader Ba's character, so I wanted to help you. Don't you need a Beauty Rejuvenation Pill? I can give you one. "
"What?"
Ba Zhentian's eyes widened in shock as he stared at Gu Ruoyun in disbelief.
What did she just say? She could give him a Beauty Rejuvenation Pill? This is definitely not a dream?! Furthermore, what was her motive for doing this?
"Miss, you're a businessman. A businessman will never let himself suffer a loss, so I want to know why there's such a thing as a free lunch in this world."
Gu Ruoyun smiled when she saw Ba Zhentian's doubtful expression.
She indeed had her own motive. After all, Ba Zhentian was from Heaven City. If she entered Heaven City in the future, she might need his help. Furthermore, she could easily refine a Beauty Rejuvenation Pill. It was worth it to use a pill she didn't need in exchange for a favor!
Of course, before she figured out Xia Linyu's identity, she wouldn't reveal her purpose no matter what.
"Leader Ba, you're thinking too much. I've only heard of your unwavering love for your wife, so this pill isn't for you, but for your wife! Everyone says that Ba Zhentian is so weak that he's even afraid of a woman. But as the leader of Heaven City's underground forces, how could you be afraid of a weak woman? Without love, how could there be fear? Such love would even move an outsider. If it weren't for your love, I wouldn't have given you this pill. "
Hearing this, Ba Zhentian's expression softened.
Everyone thought that he was weak, but only the girl in front of him understood why he was so afraid of his wife.
It was because of his deep love that he was willing to become a henpecked husband.
"Miss, you're right. I do love my wife very much. She's been by my side since I had nothing, and she's even faced death several times. But now, my career is like the sun in the sky, while she's an old woman. Coupled with the rumors outside, she's lost confidence. I want to get the Beauty Rejuvenation Pill not because I like young and beautiful women, but because I want her to have confidence."
As long as he mentioned his wife, Ba Zhentian's eyes would be filled with gentleness.
Gu Ruoyun smiled, "Sect Leader Ba, I can provide you with Beauty Rejuvenation Pills but do you really think that pills alone can restore her confidence? The only one who can give her confidence is you, Gang Leader Ba. You can use your actions to show her that no matter if she's beautiful or old, she's still the woman you love the most in your life. "
These words were like enlightenment, and Ba Zhentian suddenly came to a realization.
Yes, although he doted on her enough, most of the time he was busy with work, to the extent that he couldn't deal with what someone said to her in time, causing her to lose confidence …
