Wu Ying, her cousin, needs a capable assistant, and Luo Bi is the most suitable person. Although Luo Bi has a bad temper and is poorly disciplined, weighing the pros and cons, her abilities in understanding medicinal and spiritual plants are superior.
If Luo Bi becomes Wu Ying's assistant, the benefits outweigh the drawbacks.
"You really flatter me. I'm afraid I'm not up to the task of being an assistant. You should find someone else." Luo Bi politely declined. She was clear in her mind that no matter how much she and Jiang Zhu or Wu Yue had in common, the balance of their hearts would tip in the face of absolute interests.
Catching a glimpse of Wu Ying's figure walking in from the corner of her eye, Luo Bi's lips curled up, as if she had been waiting for her all along.
Wu Yue's face changed when he heard this. Jiang Zhu, not giving up, saw Wu Ying and waved her over, "Wu Ying, come and chat with Luo Bi." Some things might just work out if they talked about them.
Wu Yue probably thought of this too. Hearing that a customer had arrived, he took the opportunity to leave, giving Wu Ying time to persuade Luo Bi herself.
"Aunt Luo Bi." Wu Ying was sweet, calling out as soon as she saw her. The major families were intertwined with marriages, and they had some familial ties. Counting the generations, Wu Ying should call Luo Bi "Aunt".
Luo Bi had her own plans and naturally knew how to deal with a young girl like Wu Ying. She smiled, "When did you come to Zhihuang Star, Wu Ying?"
Wu Ying was of average height, slightly plump, with skin as fair and tender as her mother's. Her appearance resembled both her parents, and though she was originally quite plain as a child, she grew more beautiful over time.
Wu Ying's eyes were bright and clear, full of vitality. The curve of her lips was very noticeable, always giving the impression that she was smiling. She seemed to enjoy wearing loose, casual clothes. A comfortable cotton lace outfit covered her body, revealing what should be revealed and concealing what should be concealed, showing that she had put a lot of thought into her attire.
"I came early this morning by spaceship." Wu Ying still had a touch of childishness, speaking in a soft, coquettish voice, as if she were pouting. She extended her white, tender hand, pinching a smaller, high-grade medicinal plant, her eyes sparkling with curiosity, "This one is so small!"
Clearly ignorant, Luo Bi's gaze followed the plant to Wu Ying and smiled, reminding her, "That's a high-grade medicinal plant." So don't underestimate it just because it's small.
In the interstellar age, it's interesting that alchemy masters don't necessarily understand pharmacology, but they can definitely refine spiritual medicines. Those who truly understand pharmacology, however, may not be able to refine spiritual medicines. Like Luo Bi, she recognized the medicinal plants and knew what diseases they treated, but if she were asked to diagnose a sick person, she wouldn't be able to identify the specific illness.
Wu Ying put down the medicinal plant, her eyes twinkling as she pouted at Luo Bi, "Aunt Luo Bi, be my assistant. My current assistant isn't up to the task."
Luo Bi skillfully pruned the withered branches of the medicinal plant, her lips curved, without even lifting her head, "I might as well be honest with you. Although I'm familiar with medicinal plants, I know nothing about alchemy. Yesterday, I tried with a red jade stone, but I couldn't even guide the fire source. I'm absolutely not suitable to be your assistant."
"Guiding the fire source! I can do that. If you become my assistant, I'll teach you how to guide it." Wu Ying's spirits lifted, her eyes shining with excitement.
"Right, right, let Wu Ying teach you how to guide it." Jiang Zhu stopped working altogether, sitting up straight to help persuade Luo Bi.
Luo Bi glanced at her, "Forget it, I'm not the right person for the job."
