The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 335 A Bad Idea

"Is this your bad idea?" Daniel questioned with a smirk.

"What are you talking about? How is making use of my skills a bad idea?" Jessica replied, slightly defensive.

"So, you're asking me to put on a show? That's what it is, right?" Daniel elbowed back.

"Are you unwilling to treat my grandfather or are you just lacking the skill?" Jessica challenged.

"Who says I'm not skilled? What will you do if I actually cure him?"

"What do you want me to do?" she challenged back.

"Make love to me!" Daniel blurted out brazenly.

"Sex? Impossible. Not until after the one-year trial period," Jessica retorted firmly.

"You’re cruel! How can you expect me to remain single with such a beautiful wife? Besides, shouldn't sex be a part of the trial? If you don't test that and it turns out I'm not good enough, wouldn't that be tragic after a year?"

"If you're not good enough, then I'll kick you to the curb!"

Thus, Daniel decided to visit an herbal medicine market to buy the needed ingredients, intending to make some medicinal pills for Kind to eat. Combined with acupuncture, these could potentially bring

about a full recovery.

As soon as Daniel stepped out the door, a two-tone Rolls-Royce pulled up in front of him. An elderly man stepped out of the car and bowed to him, saying, "Young Master, good day."

His gesture took Daniel by surprise.
