Chapter 683
"I''m done." Before the man could finish his tea, Pearl stood confidently, waiting for him to check her work.
The corner of his lips couldn''t help but twitch. So fast? Even his students took half a month just to remember where the herbs
were kept.
However, he couldn''t blindly trust that everything Pearl picked was correct. He stepped forward and carefully examined each
herb she had chosen.
After checking, he frowned. The first two ingredients were fine, but the other two would counteract the effects of the first ones.
This medicine would likely cause diarrhea.
"Did you remember the form wrongly?" he asked.
Pearl looked up at him with an innocent expression. "No way, this is the right form. Don''t you know it?"
"I''ve been a doctor for forty years so | know the basic prescriptions for typhoid fever." The man didn''t expect that she would
question his own skills, his expression not looking pleased.
Pearl burst intoughter. "Well, | guess you haven''t updated your knowledge or innovated for a long time."
She was challenging his expertise!
The man''s expression suddenly changed. "That''s impossible. | mixed these herbs together before, and it turned out to be
useless!"
"It''s probably a problem with the way you prepared it then." Pearl shrugged, showing no signs of nervousness at all.
The man narrowed his eyes, looking confused. "Are you saying you''ve sessfully made this medicine before?"
Pearl had to exin herself. "Simon used to treat me with this when | had a cold. I''ve had it so many times that | can tell what''s in
it just by tasting it."
Her exnation sounded outrageous but made sense. When the man saw the confident yet humble look on her face, he couldn''t
help but sigh. "You''ll be a force to be reckoned with in the future."
How could a girl like her be Simon''s apprentice? The thought of Simon made him angry, and his expression changed from
appreciation to regret.
"So did | pass?" Seeing the quick change in his expression, Pearl couldn''t figure out what was on his mind.
The man cleared his throat. "I... If you want to pass, | have another condition."
“What is it?" Pearl asked, her suspicion growing as she noticed his unnatural expression.
"If you stop being Simon''s apprentice, I''ll give you the herbs."

The man snorted coldly. "If you don''t want to, forget it. Please leave!" He was angry because the apprentice he was so close to
having was leaving.
However, Pearl''s expression suddenly turned into a sneer. "But... if you''re not going to give it to me, I''m going to get it the hard
way."
