In the following days, Bei Yutang practiced Qi and Ice Palm while preparing the liquid medicine for Bing Ji cream needed for the next half month.
Today, when she went to Lei’s store, Shopkeeper Wang asked for more than a dozen bottles at once.
Bei Yutang could do it, but she didn’t want to give it to them so easily, otherwise, it would seem that this thing was too easy to configure.
On the sixth day, Bei Yutang prepared ten bottles of liquid medicine. The next day, Bei Yutang took the things to the town and handed them to Shopkeeper Wang as promised.
Shopkeeper Wang took the medicine in his hand with a smile, and when he saw that she was about to leave, he hurriedly said, “Mrs. Mu, wait a moment.”
“What’s the matter?”
Shopkeeper Wang asked with a smile, “Mrs. Mu, have you met anyone recently?”
Bei Yutang immediately thought of the incident six days ago when she was followed by someone.
“Shopkeeper, please tell me what you have to say.” Bei Yutang looked at him with a scrutinizing look.
Shopkeeper Wang smiled and said, “It’s like this. Our Lei’s Company has presented this Bing Ji Cream to the royal family as a tribute. Now all the noble ladies in the capital are fighting for it. The good thing will always be coveted by others. Especially since you hold the key to the Bing Ji Cream.”
“A few years ago, our Lei’s Company produced a kind of ice silk. When you wear it, it feels cool. The weaver girl who mastered this skill died of illness for no reason. Strangely, half a year later, Gu’s Company produced ice silk.”
After Shopkeeper Wang finished speaking, he observed her reaction. Seeing that her expression was always indifferent, he continued: “Such things have happened to many other companies. However, some people who mastered the skill were lured away by others or died for no reason.”
“Shopkeeper Wang, are you reminding me or scaring me?” Bei Yutang looked at him with a smile.
“I have absolutely no intention of scaring you. In fact, the higher-ups want me to ask you if you can hand over the formula of the Bing Ji Cream to us for safekeeping. This way, your personal safety will be guaranteed. You can rest assured that our Lei’s Company will never owe you a penny.” Shopkeeper Wang said sincerely.
“If I really encounter danger, I will choose to cooperate with the other party. In this way, my safety will also be guaranteed.” Bei Yutang said jokingly.
Shopkeeper Wang was embarrassed.
It seemed that he said the wrong thing. No, it was the wrong way to say it.
Now, wasn’t this pushing her to Gu’s Company?
Bei Yutang looked at Shopkeeper Wang, who was about to cry but had no tears, and said with a smile: “Don’t worry, if I really meet them, I will tell them that the secret recipe has been sold to you.”
Shopkeeper Wang’s narrowed eyes suddenly sparkled with light, “Thank you very much. However, I still hope they don’t find you.”
Bei Yutang did not tell him what happened six days ago. If he knew, he would probably be unable to sleep or eat.
Bei Yutang got up and said goodbye. As soon as she walked out of the rouge shop, she immediately noticed that someone was secretly staring at her. It seemed that they were really targeting her.
Bei Yutang pretended to be unaware and walked forward. When she was about to leave the city gate, a carriage blocked her way.
The curtain of the carriage was opened, and a handsome young man was sitting in the carriage.
The man looked at her with a smile, “Mrs. Mu, would you mind coming up to talk?”
“This young master, have you ever heard of this saying that men and women should not be intimate with each other.” Bei Yutang looked at him with a smile.
The man laughed, got out of the car, looked around, and pointed at the teahouse not far away with the feather fan in his hand, “So, what about here?”
