“You have to be careful in the future.” Jiang Ye stroked her hair with distress. “Let me know if you feel wronged.”

Tang Shuang’s heart ached and she felt like crying.

She was a mute. She had been wronged since she was young. At most, she would hide and cry. How could she have the chance to complain and cry?

People said that children who knew when to cry would get candy. Tang Xue knew this very well even as a child. She would act spoiled and cry in front of Tang Tian whenever she was wronged, so Tang Tian had always doted on her.

And what about Tang Shuang? No one would coax her. She didn’t even have the right to cry.

This was the first time someone had told her she could tell him if she felt wronged.

Because of his words, Tang Shuang felt that everything that she had done was worth it.

After a treatment session, Jiang Ye’s eyes could already sense a slight amount of light. This proved that Tang Shuang’s treatment method was absolutely correct.

Tang Xue was overjoyed when she heard the news. She urged Tang Shuang to quickly treat Jiang Ye’s eyes.

Tang Shuang formulated a plan for the second course of treatment and checked the medicinal herbs again. After confirming that there were no mistakes, she touched the seal that Jiang Ye had given her in her pocket and prepared to find a safe place to hide it.

After she hid the seal, it had gotten a little late. When she returned, she happened to hear someone talking.

“Dad, we can still sell it for a good price if we sell it now. You have to listen to me. Who still believes in Chinese medicine nowadays? Everyone thinks that it’s a scam. Besides, the medical center won’t make much money. We might as well invest in other industries…” Tang Xue spoke quickly.

At this moment, Tang Xue suddenly saw Tang Shuang. She was shocked and her expression changed. “I’ll talk to you later.”

Tang Xue hung up the phone and walked up to Tang Shuang. “Are you trying to scare me to death? Don’t you make a sound when you walk?”

Tang Shuang’s face was a little pale. She hurriedly typed on her phone—

‘What did you just say? What happened to the medical center?’

A trace of panic flashed across Tang Xue’s eyes. Then, she said nonchalantly, “The medical center’s business hasn’t been very good recently. Dad is planning to invest in other industries.”

Tang Shuang frowned and typed another line—

‘But I heard you say you wanted to sell something.’

“We’re selling a few houses! Otherwise, where would we get the money to invest?! You don’t think we’re going to sell the medical hall, do you?” Tang Xue laughed. “Nine Benevolence Hall is our Tang family’s golden brand. How can Dad bear to sell the medical hall? Don’t worry, if you treat Jiang Ye’s eyes well, I might even let you return to the Jiu Ren Hall to be a shop assistant.”

Tang Xue’s words dispelled Tang Shuang’s doubts. She heaved a sigh of relief and ignored Tang Xue. She walked around her and went into the house.

Looking at Tang Shuang’s back, Tang Xue revealed a smug and mocking smile. “Idiot, you still want to go back to the medical center? Dream on!”

The next day, Tang Shuang was counting the medicinal herbs when she found that the age of a white lingzhi [1. A type of fungus] was not enough. She originally wanted a white lingzhi that was more than 20 years old, but the white lingzhi in front of her was only 15 years old at most.

Chen Chen had probably been tricked by the herb seller. The size of a 15-year-old white lingzhi was similar to a 20-year-old one. Therefore, some herb merchants would use 15-year-old white lingzhi to fool people.

It was probably too late to re-purchase now. 20-year-old White Lingzhi was already very rare. There were probably not many medicinal shops in the entire Hai City who had it in stock.

Tang Shuang thought of the many White Lingzhi that were more than 20 years old in the Jiu Ren Hall. She thought for a moment and decided to go to the Jiu Ren Hall to get the herbs.

Tang Shuang greeted Auntie Wang and asked her to help cover for her. Then, she went out and took a taxi. Soon, she arrived at the Jiu Ren Hall. After getting the herbs, she was about to leave when she bumped into Tang Tian at the door.

Tang Tian did not expect Tang Shuang to appear here. He awkwardly squeezed out an insincere smile. “Shuang’er, why are you here? How have you been recently?”

Tang Shuang did not want to see Tang Tian, let alone answer his hypocritical greeting. She passed Tang Tian and walked straight out the door.

Tang Tian hurriedly chased after her. “Shuang’er, you saw it when you came. Jiu Ren Hall’s business is very bad now, and there aren’t many people coming to see the doctor.” As he spoke, he rubbed his hands nervously. “Dad knows a big shot recently. He has a rare illness. I remember that there’s a cure for it in your grandfather’s medical book. Look…”

‘Another medical book!’

Over the years, Tang Tian had attempted to find out the whereabouts of the medical book from Tang Shuang multiple times. The reason why he still pretended to be a good father in front of Tang Shuang was purely to trick her into telling him the whereabouts of the medical book.
