Chapter 107: Realization

When they were eating, Si Jingchuan sized up Pei Huai from time to time as he was putting food into Su Ji’s bowl.

It seemed Old Master Pei had chosen the “boss” as his future granddaughter-in-law.

He wanted to see if CEO Pei was a good match for her.

In the past, he had often heard his fans discuss CEO Pei.

Most of the fans who liked him were also CEO Pei’s fans.

When “CEO Pei” was mentioned, the fans would let out an eye-piercing shriek.

It was normal for a famous celebrity like him to have a lot of fans. However, CEO Pei managed to acc.u.mulate a fan base purely based on his looks.

Si Jingchuan crossed his arms and leaned to the side. What was he so charming?

Even though he was tall and handsome, so what?

Pei Huai remained silent for a moment. Just as he was about to turn around, he met Si Jingchuan’s gaze.

His gaze was not very kind, but Pei Huai did not take it to heart.

When it was officially confirmed that Su Ji would star in “The Billion Stars”, Pei Huai had a background check on Si Jingchuan.

He was not the type that Su Ji would like.

He only gave Si Jingchuan a faint smile before leaving the Si residence with Su Ji and Pei Xi.

Si Jingchuan stood rooted to the ground. It was only a brief eye contact, but CEO Pei’s gaze made him panic.

The man’s eyes were too piercing, and his smile was obviously sarcastic, but it didn’t seem rude at all.

“…”

He suddenly understood why he had fans!

After solving the issue, Pei Huai first sent Su Ji back to school.

The car stopped at the school gate and Su Ji got out of the car. He held the steering wheel with one hand and his eyes followed Su Ji’s figure until she disappeared into the campus. He then rolled up the window reluctantly and took Pei Xi home.

Pei Xi never expected her brother to ever be interested in a girl.

Before returning to the country, she heard that he liked someone. She thought he would at most ask her out for a meal.

However, after a few days of observation, even she thought it was unbelievable.

“Do you really like Su Ji?”

Pei Huai didn’t hide his feelings. He looked back and said, “she’s different from everyone else. I only feel comfortable when I’m with her.”

Pei Xi was left speechless.

Not only was he finally interested in a girl, he was also a hopeless romantic!

When Su Ji returned to the dormitory, she went to look for the all-purpose medicine that Pei Huai had given her.

She noticed that Zhou Xuefang’s bed was empty. Pan Lian was putting on a face mask. She whispered to her, “Xuefang applied to move out yesterday, and left today afternoon.”

Su Ji replied with an “oh” very casually.

“The company’s decision to cast you as the second female lead in ‘The Billions Stars’ made her so angry that she’s suffering from internal injuries. She’s even starting to avoid you now.”

Su Ji slowly curled her lips, “those who submit to me will prosper, and those who resist me will die.”

Pan Lian’s eyes sparkled. She’s so domineering!

Pulling out a chair, Su Ji sat in front of the table.

She took out all of her strange-looking utensils from the middle drawer.

Although some of them were a result of impulsive buying, they were still very cheap overall.

She took out a pill from the all-purpose pill and ground it into powder.

Her expression changed slightly after she tasted it.

Then, she mixed two small bottles of reagents and divided the remaining powder into two portions, evenly placing them into the two bottles of reagents.

Pan Lian was no longer surprised to see her fiddling with bottles and jars on the table. On the contrary, she chose not to disturb her.

Perhaps a new bottle of medicine could save a few more lives.

Ten minutes later, the color of the two bottles of medicine changed.

Su Ji was not researching a new medicine. She was testing the ingredients of this all-purpose medicine.

When she first saw the name of the medicine, she thought it was a coincidence. However, now that she had obtained the final result, Su Ji’s usually calm expression was about to crack.

This was because the ingredients of this all-purpose medicine were almost the same as her life-saving pill!

In her previous life, she and her pen pal had exchanged dozens of letters and studied together to improve the formula.

Since this pill had many effects, it was called the “life-saving pill” or “all-purpose medicine”.

After she and her pen pal finalized the formula, they were ready to name the medicine.

She wanted to call it the “life-saving pill”, but her pen pal wanted to call it the “all-purpose medicine”.

They had even argued about the name over a few more letters.

In the end, they agreed to call it the “life-saving pill”.

Before the live stream that day, she had asked Pan Lian what kind of medicine she wanted, and Pan Lian just happened to say the name.

She made it and didn’t expect to use it on the exact same day.

Su Ji crossed her legs and stepped on the ground with one foot. The chair was tilted backward.

She stroked her chin.

Other than her and her pen pal, it was impossible for anyone else to know the prescription.

If Pei Huai had not been a man, she would have suspected that he was the reincarnation of her pen pal.

However, after thinking about it carefully, she had scribbled a copy of the formula and placed it with the treasures in her tomb.

Could someone have seen the formula when they were digging up her grave?

Su Ji felt that the possibility was low. After all, the Chinese characters back then were very different from that of modern times, especially the names of these rare herbs.

However, Su Ji could not think of any other reason.

Su Ji suddenly thought of something and started to search for the news articles about her tomb again.

Among them was the archaeological log that the National Archeological Bureau made public.

According to the log, the five national archeological teams explored and excavated the Su mausoleum for six years. They almost gave up because of a lack of funds, but were fortunate enough to receive financial a.s.sistance from a mysterious sponsor who did not want to be named.

There was also a half-body photo of the mysterious sponsor.

From the pitch-black silhouette, one could only tell that he had short hair, wide shoulders, long legs, and was wearing a suit.

Su Ji had seen this photo before, but she had no clue at that time.

But now that she was looking at him again, she felt that the way he lifted his chin…looked familiar somehow.

Su Ji’s brows furrowed.

If she could find out who created this prescription, then she’d know who dug out her grave.

Su Ji licked her teeth and looked around the bottle.

Finally, below the expiration date, there was a line of small text:

“Sold exclusively by Huichun Hall.”
