Chapter 104: Chapter 104 Will Her Brother Die of Anger Because of Her?
The Qi Family’s Western European-style villa is nestled in Haicheng by the sea, and from the top floor of the villa, one can see the majestic and serene seascape.
Qi Yue held the herbal-soaked eye mask in both hands, hesitation filling her small face.
The eye mask had turned a light yellow after being soaked in the herbal juice, and it carried a faint scent of Chinese dicine.
Did she… really need to wear this eye mask to sleep through the night? Wouldn’t it cause problems for her eyes?
Qi Yue suddenly felt like giving up. It was only over two thousand yuan—she might as well just throw it away.
Qi Yue sighed. She would just have to chalk it up to experience.
As she was about to take the eye mask back to her room, she happened to see that the study door was ajar, with light leaking out. She knocked and walked in, only to see a tall, lean figure rifling through the bookshelves, accompanied by a low cough.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she imdiately stepped forward to admit her fault, “Brother… that is, are you looking for ginseng?”
“Yes, the gift I had prepared for our ancestor has gone missing,” the tall young man said with his brows furrowed.
Qi Mo was very handso, with a different style from Duan Feihan—his features were soft without being aggressive, and he looked elegant and gentlemanly. Of course, the business rivals who had crossed swords with him would never think so.
Seeing Qi Mo’s tense, handso face, Qi Yue started to feel regret. She had casually taken the wild ginseng not knowing how old it was, who knew Bai Chuwei would claim it was two hundred years old?
Would her brother be furious with her?
Qi Yue swallowed hard and carefully said, “Brother… Brother, I took the ginseng and, well, I gave it away.”
As Qi Yue’s voice grew quieter, Qi Mo was montarily taken aback, then calmly said with his hands behind his back, “Whom did you give it to? Do you know the value of that wild ginseng?”
It was worth millions on the market, but that wasn’t the point. Such Spiritual dicine didn’t have a set price; one couldn’t necessarily buy it even with plenty of money.
What Qi Yue feared most was Qi Mo talking like this. She shivered and hurriedly said, “I gave it to a senior who was treating my illness… I’ll ask her to return it right away. I won’t use that dicine anymore.”
To her, Bai Chuwei seed like soone practicing dicine without a license, a charlatan in ancient tis.
Qi Mo’s dense black eyelashes quivered slightly as he stopped her, “Her surna is Bai?”
Qi Yue was startled, nodding rapidly like a pecking chicken.
Qi Mo looked down and chuckled softly, coughing faintly, “It’s alright then. It’s given, so let it be given. You can use her dicine… Goodnight.” With that, Qi Mo left the study without further looking for the wild ginseng.
Qi Yue: “??”
She thought her brother would be livid, but he just let her off the hook?
Looking at the light yellow eye mask in her hand, Qi Yue thought that her own brother wouldn’t trick her, so she bit her lip and went back to her room to wash up.
Lying in her small bed with the eye mask on, her nose filled with the faint scent of Chinese dicine, she listened to the soft sound of the waves.
She had thought she might have trouble sleeping and not get used to it, but she didn’t even realize when she had fallen asleep.
Not sure if the eye mask had a hypnotic effect, the next day when Qi Yue woke up, it was almost ti for school, and she was about to be late.
She quickly washed up, grabbed her backpack and a piece of bread, then hurried to catch the bus to school.
When she arrived in the classroom, out of breath and barely settling into her seat, she noticed that the horoom teacher had already started the class.
And it was her least favorite math class.
Qi Yue had nearly 500 degrees of myopia and had to wear glasses for class every ti. Since she got up late today, she didn’t even have ti to put on contact lenses and had to settle for her ugly, black-frad glasses.
Resigned to her fate, Qi Yue took out her glasses case and placed them onto her nose…
??
Wait a minute, why was everything so blurry in front of her eyes?
