Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me?

Chapter 354 Mentee To-Be or Not To-Be

The first part of his speech was nothing to take personally, but the latter part was obviously mixed with elements of subjectivity, and Elspeth couldn't help feeling somewhat frustrated. What if he still kicked her out because he had a problem with her mentor even though she passed the test?

The man understood her thoughts at once when he saw her hesitating, and he hit the roof. "Do you think I am that kind of person?!"

At that, Elspeth chuckled awkwardly while musing, Haven't your words just now proven whether you're that kind of guy?

But of course, she dared not say it upfront, seeing how livid the man was. So, she cleared her throat. "Of course not."

Finally, the man hmphed with content, then led Elspeth into the massive dispensary. With that, the young woman swept her gaze across the place, wondering, "This place is massive. They should have what I'm looking for, right?"

"Alright, dispense a prescription for typhoid fever." At that, the man checked his watch, and as the minute hand arrived on the fifteenth minute, he said, "You have half an hour."

"Thirty's a little long. Let's do ten minutes." Elspeth was aware that he wasn't putting her in a tight spot at all, but she didn't want to waste too much time doing boring stuff like this, either.

As a result, the man widened his eyes with incredulity. "The thirty minutes includes the time for you to find the herbs and distinguish them. But you want to shorten it to ten? Don't tell me you want to tank now before even starting?"

Tank... That's pretty fresh slang. Elspeth genuinely didn't think she'd find someone who'd know the term on the other side of the world.

"I really don't need thirty minutes. That's too long."

"Since you're so confident, I won't say no, then." The man nodded with peace of mind at that. "Very well. Ten minutes it is. I'll inspect your findings later."

"I want medicine that will give the best result. Don't go around thinking you can fool me with a common prescription," he added, worried she'd be somewhat lofty.

Common? Sonny would probably flip out if he heard what this guy said. That man constantly rambles about how everything he produces is the best of the best. But if this guy doesn't make much of Sonny's prescription, I'll sever our mentor-mentee relationship with him.
