121 You Can’t Judge A Book By Its Cover
Shan Yue originally thought that the appearance of the middle-aged man would make things better, but she did not expect him to look down on others like the apprentice.
“Take this back. I’m sorry, I won’t receive you.” The middle-aged man returned the prescription on the table to Shan Yue.
Shan Yue put her hands in her pockets and did not intend to take it. She said, “I’ve already made an appointment with Huang Ruo. I have to get this medicine today.”
“How could you take it just like that? How arrogant.” The middle-aged man was clearly enraged. He threw the prescription to the ground. “We won’t give it to you today. What do you want to do?”
Shan Yue said to the man expressionlessly, “Pick up this prescription and I can let you off.”
The middle-aged man smiled and said, “Are young ladies nowadays so arrogant? You’re really making me laugh my teeth off. Let me off? I’ll let you see who doesn’t argue with whom today.” With that, he said to the apprentice beside him, “Get someone to chase her out. Don’t break the rules here.”
After the apprentice heard this, he immediately called security. Shan Yue secretly flexed her wrists. She had wanted to take the things away peacefully today, but she did not expect that she had to do it.
Just as the two sides were confronting each other, a strong voice suddenly broke the tension. “What are you doing?”
An old man in a white coat walked in. This person was Huang Ruo. Unexpectedly, after he left for a while, there was going to be a big show in his shop. “What are you doing? What happened? Are you going to destroy everything in my house?
“Elder Huang.” Shan Yue greeted him when she saw a familiar face.
“Are you Shan Yue?” Huang Ruo looked at the young woman in front of him and asked with uncertainty. He did not treat Shan Yue casually. There were all kinds of people who came to his place to get medicine. He would not underestimate Shan Yue just because she was young.
Some people looked young, but you didn’t know the power behind them. You couldn’t judge a book by its cover.
“It’s me. I have an appointment with you on the phone.” Shan Yue’s words made Huang Ruo confirm her identity.
“I’ve already prepared that medicine for you. Wait a moment, I’ll pack it for you immediately,” Huang Ruo replied happily and prepared to go in to help Shan Yue get the medicine.
“I’m afraid I can’t afford this,” Shan Yue said sarcastically.
“What?” Huang Ruo did not understand what she meant and thought that she was joking.
“A little girl like me is just here for fun. How can I afford to buy medicine?” Shan Yue looked at Huang Ruo, but her words were directed at the middle-aged man and the apprentice beside him.
Huang Ruo could tell that there was a hidden meaning in her words, so he asked, “What happened?”
Cold sweat kept dripping down the middle-aged man’s forehead. He didn’t expect this young lady to really have an appointment with Huang Ruo. He thought that some insensible rich girl had come here to play with him.
He had no choice but to whisper, “I didn’t know this lady had already made an appointment. I thought she was just coming over to take a look.”
“Nonsense, what are you doing? Didn’t I tell you long ago that if anyone comes, you have to do a good job of receiving them? Why didn’t you even ask?” When Huang Ruo heard the middle-aged man’s words, he roughly knew what had happened. He knew his subordinate’s temper very well. He always looked up to the sky and already had several conflicts with clients. He had just forgiven him time and time again because he saw that he was a dedicated person. He didn’t expect this to happen again.
“Yes, yes, yes. It’s my fault.” A layer of sweat had already appeared on the middle-aged man’s back. He knew that Huang Ruo was already very dissatisfied with him.
“Miss Shan has already transferred the deposit to me. She’s just here to get the medicine and to pay the balance today,” Huang Ruo said loudly to the middle-aged man. He wanted to help Shan Yue vent her anger. Then, he turned to Shan Yue and said, “I’m sorry for making you suffer today.”
“It’s fine.” Shan Yue did not care too much when she saw that Huang Ruo had already scolded him. She was not someone who would not let go of things. Business was more important.
