Chapter 47 - The Miracle of the House of Potions

In the admist of Zhenqiu's most packed district, there's a young couple that's doing some shopping. The two of them looked very happy if it was seen by their expressions, but the servant wasn't. An old servant of the guy was in charge of holding on the items that his young master bought for the woman his young master was engaged to. Even though the woman was really good looking, she was known in the entire Zhenqiu as the dandiest girl in the city, so the old servant wasn't impressed by her and despised her instead.

"Young Master Jun! What is that shop? House of.. Potions?" She looked around and saw an unique shop in admist of a busy street. Even though all of them was packed to the brim, only that shop was really empty. "I wonder if it's a new shop?"

The Young Master Jun looked at the shop and also interested in that. "Let's see! I also want to know what items that they sell!" The old servant didn't know whenever should he laugh or should he cry. It was almost his limit, and his young master want to go to another shop. "He pampered that vixen too much!" He thought.

When they come in, they saw the interior and thought that it was not too bad, but it wasn't too good either. For them, it was only so-so. They also saw a young "man" coming to them.

"Welcome to this shop." Smiled Su Ling. Su Ling also slowly introducing the potions and their effect like the last person who come to this shop. When the girl heard that, she was shocked by it and immediately asked for Young Master Jun to buy some for her.

"Ahaha! Anything for you, my precious little flower!" He smiled sweetly, but inside of his mind.. He frowned deeply. "Why does father wanted me to be engaged with such an useless flower vase?" He thought for a moment.

"Well.. all the thing that we, Jun's Family had is money, so it's okay i guess.." He thought. But, when he heard about the price, he almost jumped in rage. But, he hold it inside. He didn't want to make his father knows that he was called by this woman a cheapskate and said things like he didn't treat her fairly.

He reluctantly bought the pink colored potion. From what he heard, it was a splash potion of instant health. They said that it could heal something instantly. The cost was a whooping fifty spirit stones.

The old servant looked at his young master's precious little flower in disdain. "How dare she made young master to buy an expensive thing for her!" He thought, but he couldn't say that out loud as he was just a lowly servant, while she was his young master's mistress.

When the Young Master Jun putted the potion of instant health to the pile of all of the items that he bought for her, the old servant couldn't contain all of them and fell to the floor. He also fainted immediately.

"Old steward Ling!" He called the old servant. Even though inside of his heart that he knows that maybe he shouldn't make him to hold all of those items as he was too old, but he didn't know that she wanted to buy a lot of things. He thought that they only went out to eat something, so he didn't bring a lot of servants with him.

He started to regret things, because the old servant had always been with him since he was a little kid. As he panicked, a sound of a glass breaking could be heard.

Splash~

His precious little flower was shocked by that. "No! My precious potion!"

The potion of instant health dropped nearby the fainted old steward. That Young Master Jun was scared that the glass will hurt him and wanted to grabbed the potion bottle, but he didn't make it in time. Fortunately, it didn't hurt him any bit, and the old steward suddenly woke up and looked at the surrounding in confusion.

"Wh.. what's happened?" And then he looked at the items in the ground. He was scared and he immediately asked for forgiveness to his young master. Even though he knows him from little, he knew that these kind of thing is always made him angry. "Y.. Young Master Jun! I'm sorry.. Because of-"

"It's okay, Steward Ling! At least, you are fine!"

The old servant looked at his young master and was confused. "Did he ate the wrong medicine today?" He thought.

But, he was kinda moved by his concern. "Thank you for Young Master's concern. But, i'm fine now.. Even my back seems to be healthy now! It doesn't even hurt any bit!"

The Young Master Jun looked at the old steward in shock. He knew that in the past days, his backs was hurting, but.. how does it suddenly becomes healthy? He looked at the glass container of the potion of instant health and looked at Su Ling in shock.

Su Ling only smiled sweetly at him. "That's the effect that i've been telling you."

The three of them was shocked by that. "H.. how? That's not possible! I think that my back is healed because when i fell, the bone of my back turned back to it's rightful place! I don't believe such a thing to exist!" Said the old steward.

Su Ling and George laughed when they heard that "Then.. how did you awoke instantly after you fainted? If it wasn't for the help of this potions, i think you need a few days to woke up from it!"

"Wh.. What? I fainted?" He looked at his young master. And he nodded his head. He looked at the mystical potion's bottle that's broken on the ground. There's only the glass pieces left, no pink liquid was left from it. It looks like they evaporated immediately after it touched the air.

They were shocked by that, but they come back to reality when that little flower screamed loudly. "AAA! My items were broken! All of them was broken!" She looked at the old steward in a murderous eyes. "YOU! Because of you.. My things was broken like that! You have to compensate me! Not only my potion was used by you, all of the things that Young Master Jun bought for me was gone!"

Young Master Jun frowned when he saw the attitude of his precious little flower. He didn't want to call her as precious... If he do that again, he would vomit from disgust. "What do you think you are doing to my steward?" He said coldly.

When she heard that, she was shocked and knew that she f*cked this up very badly. She didn't know that he was really caring to this old servant.

"N.. no.. Young Master Jun.. I'm just-"

The Young Master Jun looked at her coldly and said. "If you can't respect the elder, i wouldn't want to be with you anymore! I bet you would probably not respect my parents too! Let's just break the engagement up!"

When she heard that, she was shocked. Just because of this thing, he broke the engagement.. just because she scolded his steward. If people knows that, what kind of thing will they say behind her back.

She cried and begged for his forgiveness to take that word back, but it was useless. He didn't even took another glance at her and immediately left the shop.

That Young Master Jun never cared about the condition of his old servant. But when he saw that he almost died, he decided to use this situation to broke the engagement.

When he left the shop with his old servant, he looked back and smiled. "I didn't know that there's such treasure inside this Zhenqiu.."
