Inside her clinic, Lin Xulian is surrounded with stacks of books about medicine and herbs. There are also some open books while she reads them simultaneously. This is the scene that greeted Rui when he arrived. He is carrying another stack of new books for her.
"Lian'er, here are the new books that big brother Huang brought back. He said he sent some of our brothers and sisters all around the continent to monitor the auction houses for rare medical books. These are the books they acquired as of late." Rui put the stack of books beside Lin Xulian.
Lin Xulian sighed heavily while looking at the new stack of books that Rui brought. "Auction houses? These must've been really expensive. We'll be poor again in no time if this goes on." Lin Xulian's heart bleeds every time she thinks that all the gold she earned by selling her medicines are slowly turning into dust because of her unknown sickness.
