The next day, at ten in the morning.
A City airport.
Nan Qingqing, holding a bouquet of sunflowers, had already appeared at the exit, instantly attracting the attention of everyone there.
She was wearing a pair of thin high-heels and a pink chiffon dress, her pure and beautiful face like that of a doll, carefully watching the activity inside.
Soon, many people ca out.
Nan Qingqing kept craning her neck to see the activity inside, but she hadn’t seen a trace of Ghost Doctor for a long ti.
Before long, the passengers of that flight had all exited, and still no sign of her.
She furrowed her brows, an impatient expression appearing on her face.
"Wasn’t she supposed to be on this flight, arriving on ti? Everyone has left, why haven’t I seen her yet?"
Suddenly, soone patted her shoulder.
"Are you Duan Zhu’s daughter, Nan Qingqing?"
Hearing a strange woman’s voice, Nan Qingqing quickly adjusted her expression and turned back with a sweet smile, "Yes, I am Qingqing."
Before her stood a woman in her thirties, dressed in a dark cheongsam, her slender hair pinned up at the back of her head with a golden hairpin, looking quite ordinary.
Her narrow eyes emitted a faint glow, like a weasel indeed.
Nan Qingqing masked her disdain, showing a surprised expression instead.
"You must be Teacher Ghost Doctor, right? I didn’t expect you to be so young!"
Hearing this, Gu Chuxin was rather pleased, her gaze on Qingqing also growing more satisfied.
"Hmm, I started learning dicine with my master at the age of three, was able to treat and heal people by six, saved soone half in the grave by ten, and beca known nationwide as Ghost Doctor by twelve."
"Now I am only thirty-eight, and even though I look young, my dical skills are quite seasoned."
Nan Qingqing had rarely heard personal information about the Ghost Doctor herself, only knowing that Ghost Doctor had beco the most mysterious Divine Doctor in the country twenty years ago.
Whenever Ghost Doctor took action, even if a life had reached King Yan himself, she could snatch it back from his hands.
But Ghost Doctor’s movents were enigmatic, and she never showed her true face, making information about her even rarer.
Now, seeing the confident Ghost Doctor in person, Nan Qingqing could hardly contain her excitent.
"Teacher Ghost Doctor, no wonder you beca such an incredible Divine Doctor!"
Gu Chuxin showed a proud smile, "Those are trivial matters now. You don’t need to call Ghost Doctor, as I can’t let others know I am her yet."
Nan Qingqing looked at Gu Chuxin, who still wanted to keep a low profile, with understanding.
"Then I’ll call you Teacher Gu."
Gu Chuxin nodded in approval, "That will do."
Nan Qingqing quickly extended the flowers in her hands towards Gu Chuxin.
"Teacher Gu, I heard you love sunflowers. I prepared these especially for you, and there’s a small gift that isn’t convenient to carry. It’s in the car."
Gu Chuxin took the bouquet of sunflowers, "Qingqing, you are too polite."
Nan Qingqing, behaving like an old acquaintance, linked her arm with hers, "Teacher Gu, let take you to see that gift. I heard you were always looking for ten-thousand-year-old ginseng; I was lucky enough to co across one recently."
The initially hesitant Gu Chuxin’s eyes suddenly lit up, as bright as two big white lamps, dazzling to look at.
"Hurry, let’s go see it!"
Nan Qingqing led her to the parking lot, directly signaling the driver to open the rear door of the car.
Suddenly, an excellent ten-thousand-year-old ginseng ca into view.
Gu Chuxin’s eyes fixed on it.
She shakily extended her hand, touching the ginseng’s roots.
Then she bowed her head, sniffed its scent.
The next second, she widened her eyes.
"It’s really ten-thousand-year-old ginseng!"
