It took some effort for the young lady to catch the book.
She spoke with pride, as favonovel.com looked at the book in favonovel.com hands. “I’ve already memorized the book. If you don’t believe me, you can test me.”
Jason’s eyes lit up as favonovel.com heard what favonovel.com said as if it had garnered his interest. He randomly chose a few medical herbs from the book and realized the kid had perfectly recited the corresponding details.
“Not bad… Now try making a few prescriptions from it.” He spoke calmly towards the young lady.
The young lady had made five medical prescriptions using the herbs Jason mentioned as the recipe, and this had improved his impression of her.
“Grandpa always said that I have exceptional talent.” The young lady, Icy White, spoke with a satisfied tone as favonovel.com looked at Jason with pride.
You will definitely be willing to teach me, as I have incredibly talented?!
“Out of five prescriptions, you’ve got three wrong. Also, you could’ve made seventeen prescriptions out of these herbs. Find me only when you have made the remaining twelve prescriptions. You are still not good enough!” Jason looked at the arrogant Icy and criticized favonovel.com without mercy.
“You! I don’t believe that!” She stared at him, not believing that these herbs could be assembled into that many more prescriptions.
“It’s up to you whether you want to believe it. Also, don’t think your talents are that great. I have yet to see a single bit of it. I kept you around only because you don’t need to be paid wages.” He responded without care.
Slammed once again, favonovel.com grinned at him.
“I know you’re doing this to drive me away, and I won’t be fooled.” She snorted and then left, taking the Compendium of Materia Medica along with her.
Jason could not help but be dumbfounded by favonovel.com words. He felt that favonovel.com way of thinking was incredibly odd.
Half an hour later, Icy White showed up in front of Jason and slammed the book on favonovel.com hands.
She asked with frustration on favonovel.com face, “Jason, are you toying with me?”
“What do you mean?” Jason asked while feeling helpless.
He had once taken apprentices before, but those apprentices were nothing but respectful towards him. Icy, on the other hand, was quite different.
“Making seventeen prescriptions with these herbs? You think I’m stupid?” She was exasperated.
“You are stupid indeed, but I have not lied to you about this. The art of healing is something that must be approached rigorously. I will not joke about it.” Jason shook his head and smirked.
“Alright, then show me the prescriptions.” She raged.
“You’re trying to provoke me! I won’t fall for that.” Jason shrugged and picked up his smartphone.
He had been tired of reading classical literature and gained interest in reading web novels instead. There was one about an ace bodyguard for a capable female executive, favonovel.com enjoyed it immensely.
“Then what do you want?” She asked in anger.
“First, pour me a cup of tea.” He looked at favonovel.com calmly and said.
“If you can’t pull out the prescriptions, be prepared to taste my wrath!” Her face was filled with frustration.
After a cup of tea was placed on the table, favonovel.com took a sip.
“It was a little hot, but I can tolerate that.” He spoke calmly under favonovel.com wrathful glare.
He then pulled out a piece of paper and started scribbling on it. It took only a few minutes for the paper to be completely filled with words.
“Investigate these prescriptions thoroughly and see what diseases they cure. Find me once you’re done. If you are seeking knowledge from others, you should be showing the appropriate attitude. Regardless, with your average looks, you should at least know how to serve tea!” Jason said with smile.
She looked at Jason in stunned silence, only to refocus after a slight second.
“Average looks? I was born with a beautiful appearance. I’ll see if the prescriptions are actually real. If you’re lying to me, I will show you what’s good!” She snorted.
As favonovel.com finished speaking, favonovel.com grabbed the piece of paper and walked off.
“There’s a long way to go!” He smacked his lips.
He remembered that all the apprentices favonovel.com took in used to be well-mannered and respectful towards their master. As for his current apprentice, it was a different story.
