“I can provide you with a chance to go to the Ghost Island and participate in the gathering of the Great Pharmacist Guild. I can let you personally communicate with those great pharmacists from all over the world who have hidden superpowers and find a prescription to treat your brother’s eye disease. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! To be honest, there’s probably only one gold and silver key that you can encounter at your level and in your social circle! This is something that Chu Yangfeng will never be able to bring to you in his entire life! He has long been expelled by the Great Pharmacist Guild. As a loser, he’s never allowed to step foot on the Ghost Island again!”
Professor Brown’s speech had hit the nail on the head!
Most people would be tempted.
Unfortunately, Gu Qiqi wasn’t an ordinary person. Her expression didn’t change at all. Without any hesitation, she insisted, “I’m sorry, Professor Brown. We people from the empire are particular about this. A teacher for a day is a father for a lifetime. It’s a very serious problem with my character to betray my master. I think you don’t want me to become a villain who betrays my master, right?”
Professor Brown opened his mouth, but no words came out.
However, Susanna was anxious. “Doctor Gu, do you not believe in his strength because my father lost to you in the World Medical Competition? Actually, he didn’t use all his strength that day. If he really used all his strength, he would scare those ordinary people to death…”
Professor Brown waved his hand and stopped Susanna. “Be good, baby. Shut up. Don’t say anything else. Let Doctor Gu decide for herself if she’s willing to be my disciple.”
Gu Qiqi pursed her lips into a straight line. “Yes, I’ve already decided. I’m not willing.”
Professor Brown opened his mouth, then closed it again helplessly.
She didn’t expect Gu Qiqi to be so direct.
What a straightforward rejection!
After a long silence, he could only say awkwardly, “Since Doctor Gu isn’t willing to be my disciple, I can’t force you. Just pretend that I never mentioned this.”
This time, it was Susanna’s turn to smooth things over. “Well, ahem, let me toast Dr. Gu again!”
An awkward round of recruiting a disciple was over.
After the meal, Professor Brown said faintly, “Doctor Gu, although you’re unwilling to be my disciple, I’ll remember to help you find out more about the prescription for eye disease recovery on the Ghost Island this time. You have to contact me more in the future!”
Gu Qiqi replied, “Okay.”
However, at the same time, she had already made a plan in her heart. She would never be able to rely on others. When she returned tonight, she would discuss with Gong Jue and think of a way to reach the island independently to find medicine for Xiaobei!
After dinner in Country M, they ate dessert and drank coffee.
Gu Qiqi didn’t like coffee much and asked for tea.
A cup of black tea warmed her stomach. Seeing that it was about time, she stood up and prepared to leave.
She gestured to the little packrat. “Little packrat, where are the gifts you brought for Grandpa Brown and Auntie Susanna?”
The little boy touched his clothes and took out a card from his pocket.
He handed it to Professor Brown and said seriously, “Thank you for your hospitality!”
Professor Brown looked at the card speechlessly. When he opened it, he was shocked. “You… wrote this yourself?”
“Yes!” The little packrat nodded.
“Talent! What a little genius!” Professor Brown couldn’t help but praise him.
When the card was unfolded, it was actually a line of beautiful English words.
There were more than 40 font types!
Every line was a novel font with the same sentence: “Grandpa Brown, welcome to the Empire again with Miss Susanna.”
Among them, there was even a particularly difficult “Gothic” character!
