Chapter 39 - Offer

Just as the two were talking, a low and affectionate voice came over. "Miss Hongzhuang."

Bai Li Hongzhuang turned her gaze and saw the smiling face of Ning Hongzhong, who walked out immediately and greeted her with a cupped hand. "Doctor Ning, why did you come in person?"

"Thanks to Miss Hongzhuang, the Crown Prince's illness has been resolved," Ning Hongzhong waved his hand, and a servant behind him immediately handed him a red package with both hands and passed it to Ning Hongzhong. "I came today to deliver the reward."

Bai Li Hongzhuang received the Qiankun Bag. She had originally planned to buy one after receiving the reward money, but she didn't expect to receive it directly.

The Qiankun Bag appeared to be just the size of a money pouch, but it contained its own space.

With the Qiankun Bag, traveling would be much more convenient, but its price was high, and ordinary people couldn't afford it.

"I have also put the 100,000 gold coins owed to you by Pang Tangping inside, for a total of 200,000 gold coins."

"Thank you, Doctor Ning," Bai Li Hongzhuang expressed her gratitude.

Ji Wenbin, who was on the side, looked at this scene with deep emotion. 200,000 gold coins, that was a sum of money that many people couldn't obtain in their entire lifetime.

"Miss Ning, the Emperor holds you in high regard and specifically sent me to inquire whether you have any intention to enter the palace as a royal physician," Ning Hongzhong asked, "I guarantee that if you come to the palace, we will not interfere with your work."

If they could recruit such a talent into their royal physician's hospital, the strength of the hospital would greatly increase!

Ji Wenbin's face revealed a pleasantly surprised expression. The royal physician's hospital was a place that many physicians dreamed of entering.

With Bai Li Hongzhuang's medical skills, once she entered the royal physician's hospital, she would undoubtedly enjoy wealth and honor for her entire life.

Other patients felt envy but also disappointment. Once Bai Li Hongzhuang entered the royal physician's hospital, they would have no chance to seek treatment from her.

However, unexpectedly, Bai Li Hongzhuang politely declined.

"Thank you for the Emperor's appreciation and Doctor Ning's kindness, but I have no intention to enter the royal physician's hospital."

Hearing Bai Li Hongzhuang's reply, Ning Hongzhong was slightly taken aback. "Miss Hongzhuang, why is that?"

"Life in the palace is not as free and easy as life outside. I plan to manage the Divine Physician Clinic well," Bai Li Hongzhuang responded.

She had no good impression of the palace, whether it was the Emperor or Xuanyuan Huan. She was extremely disgusted by them, let alone working for them.

"Miss Hongzhuang, with your medical skills, being a wandering doctor here would be too much of a waste," Ning Hongzhong clearly didn't want to let go of such a good talent and tried to persuade her.

Bai Li Hongzhuang shook her head slightly. "Doctor Ning, thank you for your high regard, but my aspirations lie elsewhere. I'm sorry."

Seeing Bai Li Hongzhuang's firm determination, Ning Hongzhong sighed softly. "Well, if you ever have the intention to join the royal physician's hospital, you can come to me at any time."

"Thank you."

After Ning Hongzhong left, Ji Wenbin asked with confusion, "Miss Hongzhuang, joining the royal physician's hospital is much better than opening a medical clinic outside. Why did you give up such a great opportunity?"

"Brother Ji, to be honest, opening a medical clinic is just my side business," Bai Li Hongzhuang explained with a smile.

"Side business?" Ji Wenbin was puzzled. "Then what is your main business?"

"Cultivation!" Bai Li Hongzhuang answered naturally. "I am a cultivator."

Ji Wenbin's mouth dropped open as he stared at Bai Li Hongzhuang, at a loss for words.
