Zhaoming Making A Move

Guan Xin never thought of going into this particular specialization because she wanted to attend the exams- it was entirely because of Lin Yi! She was aware that Lin Yi wasn't beneath her grandpa in medicine, and that he was actually better than him! Worried that she might lack common topics with Lin Yi in the future, she decided to pick up the subject.

Of course, she never told her grandfather, or her father. She had made the decision on her own.

At that moment, Kang Zhaoming felt a sense of regret for not reading up on medicine- he would have had such a good topic to use with Guan Xin otherwise, it was such a rare opportunity too! He was from a family involved in medicine, so it was the perfect pick up line!

But Zhaoming knew nothing else aside from how to hit on girls!

Zhaoming started panicking as he saw that Guan Xin had already found a book to read- How was he supposed to approach her? An idea suddenly came to mind as he remembered that Guan Xin was a nurse. She wouldn't be too knowledgeable in medicine then, would she?

And weren't nurses only in charge of things that weren't difficult to learn? Things like bandaging and just taking care of tasks in general. It didn't really require her to be looking at any books in the bookstore…

Zhaoming took another look at his surroundings and realized that there were quite a couple of young girls here in the medicine section. One of them walked past him, and Zhaoming saw the words 'Eastern Medicine Cosmetology' as the title on the book she was holding!

Realization hit him- cosmetology! So Guan Xin was here for that as well?

It wasn't surprising. After all, all girls cared about how they looked, especially girls as pretty and cute as Guan Xin. Of course they'd want to reach even higher heights of beauty.

Zhaoming felt a lot more confident at that thought. He may not know medicine, but that did not mean Guan Xin did! As long as he made himself look a bit more professional and genuine, he was sure that Guan Xin wouldn't be able to tell.

Many books nowadays were fake too, and the contents may not always be right! Some of them even contradicted each other.

Zhaoming grit his teeth and walked over with wide steps and a smile on his face, "Hi pretty, are you looking at cosmetology books?"

Guan Xin's book was open, so Zhaoming couldn't see what the title was- he simply assumed that it was a cosmetology book, his voice, confident, as he asked the question.

"Oh…" Guan Xin raised her head to look at Zhaoming, focusing her attention back on the book again after realizing it was a stranger.

"Heh, many of the things in these books aren't real, you know! I'm pretty free today anyway, so why don't I tell you a little bit about using Eastern medicine for cosmetology?" Zhoaming said confidently, "Let me introduce myself- I'm Kang Zhaoming, Miracle Doctor Kang's grandson!"

"Miracle Doctor Kang?" Guan XIn paused. She'd heard the name before, and was also aware of the Golden Creation Medicine associated with him. She was always asked if there was any Golden Creation Medicine in the hospital when she helped bandaged the injured, but she never had any impression on the man himself. She had just heard of him before.

"That's right, us Kang's are a noble house of medicine! I usually wouldn't comment on cosmetology books like these, but I really couldn't help it after seeing you today. I have to say something!" Zhaoming said gleefully, assuming that he had impacted the girl hard with the title of Miracle Doctor Kang, "If you follow the beautifying techniques on these scammy books, then you'll ruin your face! I just couldn't stand by quietly and let you do anything like that to a face as pretty as yours."

"Oh…" Guan Xin frowned, quite irritated at how noisy Zhaoming was being, "It's fine, I don't want any sort of beautification anyway."

"That can't do! A girl as pretty as you should know how to maintain their beauty, after all beauty is only temporary!" Zhaomning said, "Think about it, you're this pretty now because of how powerful youth is, but what about a couple years later? You'll be yellow and old, what would you do then?"

Guan Xin glared at Zhaoming- what was this person saying, yellow and old? Was he out of his mind?

But Guan Xin was a well-tempered girl, and this wasn't enough to throw her into anger. As displeased as she was towards Zhaoming, she kept quiet and continued reading her books, thinking that he'd leave if she just ignored him.

But the man never left much to her surpise. He continued on babbling instead, "Us in the Miracle Doctor Kang family are well versed in cosmetology. Those normal materials and ingredients in these books are actually useless- if you want to preserve that youth you'll need some stronger medicine! For example, ganoderma, snow lotus, antler, tiger penis…"

Zhaoming didn't exactly know which ingredients were good ingredients, but since Guan Xin didn't know either, he decided to just throw out some of the expensive itmes he had heard people talk about before.

Guan Xin's face reddened upon hearing 'tiger penis', and she started to get a little pissed off. What on earth was this guy saying? Was something wrong with his head?

But Zhaoming had no self awareness at all, assuming Guan Xin had been moved by his expertise and knowledge in medicine when he saw her face reddened. His tone turned more gleeful as he continued, "I still have half a tiger penis in my house, it was really effective after I ate the first half. If you need it, I can bring it to you…"

Zhaoming didn't realize just what was inappropriate about this talk of eating penis- all he had in mind was throwing all of his assets at Guan Xin. He did have the snow lotus in his house too, but that had to be used in the Skin Beautifying Golden Creation Medicine. He wasn't that much of an idiot to just give it away.

Guan Xin couldn't endure this person any longer. She closed the book and was about to leave when she saw Lin Yi standing some distance away, much to her delight. She waved to him, "Lin Yi! What a coincidence, you're here too!"

Zhaoming was smugly displaying the powerful assets his house owned when he saw Guan Xin leave- headed for Lin Yi, no less! It pissed Zhaoming off quite a bit.

The entire Kang family all saw Lin Yi as an enemy after all- after Kang Xiaobo started hanging around him, the Kang House has been in total chaos!

A perfectly fine Pill of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing, and these people just had to make things unclear! Not only did they make the Kangs lose such a precious pill, they even got them to gather around to eat dog shit! It was the absolute worst!

Of course, Zhaoming would never think of blaming himself or his family, never considering that they were the ones who doubted the miracle pill Xiaobo gave them in the first place. He was even the one who stepped on it! The events that followed would not have been possible if not for them.

But Zhaoming threw all the responsibility onto Xiaobo and Lin Yi, blaming them for not making things clear!

And the Pill of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing they'd bought for four hundred million, too- it'd gotten eaten by a dog! Obviously, this had to be blamed on Xiaobo and Lin Yi, as well- if it weren't for them gifting the first pill, the Kangs would not have had a German Sheperd in their house in the first place! They would not have had to search through dog shit at all!
