Qiao Nian had already put the medicine back into the box. Without looking at him, he turned his head and said to Mr. Jiang, "Grandpa, can I take this medicine back to study it?"
Mr. Jiang has lived for decades and has long since developed a pair of sharp eyes. Even his age does not affect his wisdom.
As soon as he saw the girl's abnormal reaction, he immediately knew something was wrong with the medicine!
He knew it very well, but some things were not easy to say in front of Jiang Zongnan, so he could only nod. Just now he was talking to Qiao Nian in high spirits, but in the blink of an eye he seemed to be in a bad mood again, and said tiredly: "You take it back."
Qiao Nian closed the box, unzipped her shoulder bag, threw the medicine into the bag she brought with her, then stood up and said to Old Man Jiang, "Then Grandpa, I'll go back first."
"Niannian, aren't you going to have dinner with us tonight?" Old Master Jiang looked at her intently, unable to hide his disappointment.
Qiao Nian glanced at Jiang Zongnan and Jiang Yao beside her, her fingers unconsciously pinched the strap of her shoulder bag, and politely declined Mr. Jiang: "Next time."

After walking out of the sanatorium, Qiao Nian did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he found a seat against the wall on the side of the road, took out his cell phone, and called Zhong Yiliu.
Zhong Yiliu answered immediately: "Why did you think of calling me? What's the matter? Is it related to the Independent Continent again?"
Qiao Nian leaned against the roadside, her eyes slightly raised, her pupils looked dark and deep, no emotion could be seen, she asked him casually: "Dean Zhong, has anyone else seen the formula of the little pill I gave you before besides you?"
"You mean the formula from last time?" Zhong Yilu was far away at the Pharmacy Association. He put down what he was doing and thought carefully before saying to her, "No, I was the only one who saw that prescription and I destroyed it after I read it. How did you suddenly remember this?"
Qiao Nian smiled, her eyes were a little cold, and she didn't know what she was thinking about. She put one hand in her pocket, looked a little annoyed, and her tone was a little bit perverse: "Someone stole my prescription and made a fake one."
She didn't expect that someone would think of this. She could only say that she was a little surprised, and she also admired the other party's endless ways of seeking death.
"Can you ask someone to check if the 56th page of the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine is still in the library?"
She always preferred to remember things in her mind rather than write them down on paper, and usually she would destroy things like prescriptions on the spot.
Of course, nothing is absolute.
She had written down the prescription for the pills in the Pharmacy Association library. Instead of destroying the draft paper, she put it inside a book she was reading at the time.
Since the other party was stealing, he must have obtained the recipe from somewhere.
Zhong Yiliu had not expected this to happen. After a moment of shock, he immediately said, "Wait a moment, I'll send someone to take a look."
"Well, thank you for your help."
Qiao Nian hung up the phone.
…
In a private room in Lanting.
Ruan Sisi and several friends who had recently become close to Jiang Xianrou were all there, as were people from the Overseas Medical Association. Among them, sitting in the main seat was Master Carloska, the honorary president of the Overseas Medical Association.
He was talking to Jiang Xianrou, and from his soft voice and attitude, one could tell how much he valued Jiang Xianrou.
Jiang Xianrou kept her eyelashes slightly lowered and the corners of her mouth slightly raised. She looked proud and confident, and would reply from time to time, neither humble nor arrogant.
