Chapter 681
“Of course they do. You''re buying herbs here to treat illnesses. If you make a mistake and someone asks for the source of the
medicine, it will lead back to us. | have to make sure." The man was just following protocol.
He added, "I noticed you''re from Enswood, so | believed you more, and that''s why | asked you so many questions. If it had been
anyone else, | would have kicked you out a long time ago."
"I''m really sorry. | can''t tell you my mentor''s name, but | will definitely be able to cure the ailment." Pearl realized that she might
have been too intense and had made the man angry.
"If that''s the case, you can''t buy anything from us." The anticipation in the man''s gaze disappeared. Human life was at stake, so
he couldn''t just take a chance.
Seeing that the man was about to turn around and leave, Pearl said, "Then can you send the person with you away? | can only
tell you."
The man stopped walking. He nced at the foreign man beside him from the corner of his eyes, and thetter understood
immediately.
Although the middle-aged man was a little reluctant, he left.
"Okay, go ahead."
Now that they were the only people there, Pearl said, "My mentor''s name is Simon Freeman."
As soon as the name was spoken, the man''s face froze. "Are you sure?"
"Yes, do you know him?" Pearl''s heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly had a bad feeling. Judging from his reaction, it seemed
he wasn''t happy like he was going to meet a close friend, but rather disgusted to meet an enemy.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.
As expected, the man''s face immediately darkened. "I can''t sell the herbs to you then.” With that, he turned around and left
angrily.
Pearl took a few steps forward and finally had no choice but to grab his wrist. She was so strong that the man couldn''t pull away,
and for a moment, he didn''t even know what to say.
"What? Didn''t | tell you | won''t sell to you?"
Pearl was a little anxious. "I really need the herbs. | hope you can sell some to me and disregard your personal grudges."
The man scoffed. "You don''t even know the whole story, yet you think it''s just a personal grudge?"
Pearl was momentarily speechless. "You decided not to sell the herbs to me just by hearing my mentor''s name. Isn''t that
personal?"
The man took advantage of her momentary distraction and quickly shook her hand away. "Okay, | get what you mean. Do you
really have to buy them?"
Pearl nodded. "Of course."
"In this case, you''ll need to pass my
test first." The man ghed aS ehin,

That sounded too good to be true. Is there such a good thing?
Nheless, Pearl nodded again. "Sure, how do you want to do this?"
