Space and Rebirth: The Favored Genius Doctor and Businesswoman - chapter 40 - Come Again Tomorrow ()
When the old man heard this, his expression became a bit fiery . Surname is Jing? Whats your fathers name? Mother? Whos in your family?
Jing Yunzhao felt weirder and weirder .
Im sorry, old senior . Im an orphan . Im the only one in my family . Jing Yunzhao replied .
Ye Qin was already dead . She had also already left The Qiaos . Her biological parents whereabouts were unknown . Whether they were alive or dead was definitely also unknown . So calling herself an orphan wasnt pushing it .
After Jing Yunzhao finished talking, the old mans eyebrows clumped together . He reached out his hands to pull Jing Yunzhao back into the yard . Then are you a native here? Do you know a woman surnamed Xu ()? Shes around in her forties
The old man stared at her . The disappointment in his eyes was clearer than before .
Looking closely, doesnt look that similar . Too young . Eyes that sharp . The light in the eyes isnt gentle enough . Looks too heroic the old man said some weird things . He breathed in and looked a bit unsteady . The middle-aged man beside him quickly rushed up to help him . the old man waved his hand . Old mans surname is Xu . Sorry for unsettling you earlier . I hope you, little girl, wont mind it .
(T/N: The old man addresses himself as old man or lao fu () . Most old men do it . )
Its okay, grandpa . Looking at him, Jing Yunzhao couldnt blame him .
The old man surnamed Xu looked very worn out and turned around to go back to the house . But after a few steps, he turned around and looked at her, Do you have more goods to sell?
Jing Yunzhao nodded . Yes . And she had a lot of it .
Come again tomorrow at this time, said the old man and then left her .
Jing Yunzhao only thought that it was a bit weird . But then she realized why the people at pharmacy described him as a weird, rotten old man . You couldnt find anyone as mysterious as him in the entire Huaning county .
He was only an old man . She didnt worry about what he would do to her . She still had the ability to protect herself .
Jing Yunzhao went directly home . When she arrived, she saw that Su Chu was looking worried and beside Su Chu was a boy . He looked clean, neat and was pretty good-looking . He was probably Gan Jinchen .
Biaojie, youre much braver than we are . Youre out so late at night . Arent you scared you might come across some bad guys? When Su Chu saw Jing Yunzhao, she was relieved .
I had things to take care of . I apologize for worrying you . Jing Yunzhao had been used to being ignored and neglected . So she didnt think that someone would be home waiting for you nor did she think to tell them beforehand .
Gan Jinchen glared at her but didnt say anything . He returned to his bedroom without leaving a single word .
Jing Yunzhao understood the look he gave her . He was clearly looking down upon her and doubting her .
After all, Grandpa Gan took her in as a granddaughter . He, the biological grandson, would definitely feel uncomfortable to some extent, especially since her reputation was pretty bad .
Biaoge has a weird temper . Neednt worry about him! Su Chu, on the other hand, was lively and stuck out her tongue in the direction of Gan Jinchen .
Remembering what that strange old man told her, Jing Yunzhao decided to explain the situation (T/N: where she was and where shell be going tomorrow) to Su Chu . Just in case she worries again . However, the matter of selling medicinal materials was a bit weird, so she didnt mention it .
Oh yeah, Chuchu, you talked about a test yesterday . Is it the one requested by grandpa? Jing Yunzhao suddenly remembered something and asked .
(T/N: Chuchu is a nickname for Su Chu . )
Su Chus face turned sour and said, Yeah! Since me and biaoge were little, grandpa gave us a goal . We must study medicine in the future . Even if its western medicine! So he would give us a test every month . The questions are all super hard! Butbiaojie, how did you know that it was grandpas requestcould it be that h-he also
At that moment, Su Chu became dumbfounded .
