Leaving for the Pharmacy Association
“Oh, then you have to pack quickly.” Tang Wanru was very concerned and asked her, “Do you want Mom to help you?”
“Mom, there’s no need. I’ll pack up by myself.” Jiang Xianrou was obviously in a good mood when she mentioned this. She smiled and said, “Aren’t we leaving for the Pharmacy Association the day after tomorrow? There are still two days left. I can still pack up slowly.”
Jiang Yao was busy greeting guests yesterday and did not know that Jiang Xianrou was going to the Pharmacy Association.
Hearing this, his eyes lit up. He looked at Jiang Xianrou and said, “You’re going to the Pharmacy Association?”
“Yes.” Jiang Xianrou lowered her head as if she was embarrassed. She said humbly, “I’m going to report to the Pharmacy Association. Mom and Godmother will accompany me. We’ll go back with Chief Robert from the Pharmacy Association. We originally agreed to leave tomorrow, but the Chief has something on tomorrow and changed his schedule at the last minute. We’ll leave the day after tomorrow.”
“That’s a good thing.” Jiang Yao was quite happy for her.
Jiang Xianrou was quite happy herself. She couldn’t hide her smugness. However, she knew how to restrain her emotions better than before and did not show them on her face.
Jiang Zongnan adjusted his tie and took out his wallet from his briefcase. He opened the wallet and took out a black card before handing it to Jiang Xianrou.
“Dad?”
He was calmer than Tang Wanru and Jiang Yao. He forced the bank card into Jiang Xianrou’s hand and reminded her gently, “You have to restrain your temper. Talk less and do more. Watch more and learn more. Don’t be so impulsive when doing things.”
Jiang Xianrou stood rooted to the ground, feeling touched. She tightened her grip on the bank card and said softly, “Yes.”
Jiang Zongnan patted her shoulder lovingly, then put down his hand and said to her, “You have to listen to your mother when you get there.
“The Pharmacy Association isn’t as simple as you think. There are too many powers there, and none of them are people we can afford to mess with.
“So, when you get to the Pharmacy Association, try to keep a low profile. Don’t mess with anyone there. Understand?”
“I understand.” Jiang Xianrou’s heart was filled with yearning for the Pharmacy Association. “Dad, don’t worry. I’ll contact you in the future.”
She had heard a little about the Pharmacy Association from Qi Yan. The Pharmacy Association was an independent party in Continent O. There were various forces in the world, and it was very chaotic.
However, no matter which faction it was, they all stopped fighting to maintain peace in the Pharmacy Association’s territory.
It was obvious how powerful the Pharmacy Association was.
How could Jiang Xianrou not yearn for such a place?!
She couldn’t wait to leave for Continent O tomorrow.
Unfortunately, Robert had told them at the last minute that he needed to stay in Beijing for another day.
Although Jiang Xianrou felt regretful, she could only stay for another day. A day would pass in the blink of an eye. She could afford to wait.
“Yes.” Jiang Zongnan nodded. His tensed jawline relaxed slightly. He looked at her again and said hesitantly, “There’s one more thing.”
Jiang Xianrou looked at him in confusion.
Jiang Zongnan let out a long sigh, and his shrewd eyes revealed a rare hint of fatigue. He said in a low voice, “Xianrou, try your best to find out if there’s any medicine that can extend your grandfather’s lifespan. Your grandfather’s health has been deteriorating for the past two years. I’m afraid he… won’t be able to last more than a few years.”
“Didn’t Qiao Nian buy him health supplements?” Jiang Xianrou turned her face away. After suppressing the unhappiness in her heart, she put on a straight face and said expressionlessly, “Dad, don’t worry! I’ll definitely ask Dean Zhong if I have the chance.”
