"Please wait a moment, sir. I'll personally check the storeroom to see whether we have the medicinal ingredients you need. If we don't have them for the time being, I'm afraid you'll have to wait a while."
Ya Fei said with a charming smile. As she spoke, she took the list of medicinal ingredients and swayed her graceful figure out of the VIP room, once again leaving Xiao Yan alone inside.
After Ya Fei left, Xiao Yan immediately let out a breath of relief. He looked fearfully at the now-empty doorway of the VIP room and exhaled deeply. "That scared me to death. That woman is way too terrifying."
"Heh... kid, who told you to have such an impressive uncle? If it weren't for your uncle, do you really think they'd even know who you are?"
Medicine Elder could not help rolling his eyes. He felt that this cheap disciple of his had been so thoroughly fooled by them that his brain had gone numb...
No, no, it had nothing to do with him, Yao Chen. Clearly, Yang Chen had fooled his nephew silly. Otherwise, how could he have done something so full of holes?
Though he grumbled inwardly, Medicine Elder was genuinely amazed by Ya Fei's sharp insight. She had actually deduced from such minor details that Xiao Yan was not an alchemist.
After all, it was exceedingly difficult for someone who was not an alchemist to notice such things. They rarely came into contact with alchemists in their daily lives, so naturally, they did not understand what traits this special profession possessed.
"Hehe!"
Xiao Yan gave an awkward laugh, his face carrying a trace of pride as he said excitedly, "Uncle is amazing. Without him, getting these medicinal ingredients this time would probably have been quite troublesome too."
