Chapter 564: Chapter 563: The Touching Moment Is Fleeting

Lin Yanran hesitated for a moment before confessing to Zhang Xiaoshan with a face full of guilt,

"Doctor Zhang, about the contract, I—I messed it up."

"What?"

"For your Lin family, this is nothing at all, just a drop in the bucket, how could you mess it up?"

Zhang Xiaoshan found it unbelievable.

Lin Yanran seemed to have a soft spot pricked by Zhang Xiaoshan’s words, hung her head, bit her lips, and said nothing further.

Zhang Xiaoshan was at a loss.

What was this all about, it felt as though he was the one who had made a mistake.

Elder Li, after a moment’s hesitation, explained to Zhang Xiaoshan,

"Doctor Zhang, this matter is not difficult for Lin’s Pharmaceutical, but for my young miss, it’s quite difficult indeed. Last time, Second Young Master Lin of our Lin family brought people over to make trouble, and you saw it. The infighting within Lin’s Pharmaceutical is very serious."

"This time, my miss found the Red Sun Grass, which was a great contribution to the family, and naturally it made those people jealous."

"Especially Second Young Master Lin Rui."

"Out of that fifty million, ten million was from my miss’s own private savings."

"To gather that fifty million, my miss even sold her own small villa and some jewelry."

"You could truly say she sold everything she could."

"Ah?"

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at Lin Yanran in astonishment.

"That includes your personal savings?"

Lin Yanran’s cheeks were flushed, and she remained silent.

Which served as a confirmation.

Elder Li continued,

"The money issue is negotiable, as it can be handled privately, but the order is a corporate action of Lin’s Pharmaceutical, it’s not just up to my miss to have the final say."

"Second Young Master Lin Rui and my miss’s Third Uncle vehemently opposed it at the board meeting, saying that Hui Nong Pharmaceutical Factory is just a small unknown workshop, and if they let such a small outfit handle their contract manufacturing, it would surely ruin Lin’s Pharmaceutical’s century-old reputation."

"My old master is a person who distinguishes clearly between public and private affairs. Finding the Red Sun Grass for his treatment was a private matter, but the order is a public matter; he didn’t want to force through the decision."

"So, the deal with the order has fallen through."

"But, but I swear, our young miss really did her best."

"Uncle Li, stop talking."

Lin Yanran interrupted Elder Li, took a deep breath, looked at Zhang Xiaoshan, and said with a tone filled with guilt and hesitation,

"Regardless of everything, I broke my promise. Out of your three conditions, I only managed to fulfill two."

"But, but I still want to beg you, could you please let me use the Red Sun Grass first? I will make every effort to make it up to you for the third condition."

"Alright."

Zhang Xiaoshan nodded simply.

"Ah?"

Lin Yanran had been thinking about how to convince Zhang Xiaoshan, but he agreed so readily, leaving her and Elder Li dumbfounded.

"You—you agreed?"

Lin Yanran felt it was quite sudden.

Unbelievable.

Zhang Xiaoshan calmly said,

"A hundred million deal for contract manufacturing, just twenty million in the end."

"I did make three conditions to you at that time, but actually, only the first two were urgently needed by me. I need the medicine to treat my sister-in-law, and I need the money to buy Hui Nong Pharmaceutical Factory. The third condition was just something I proposed on a try basis, since Red Sun Grass is indeed very precious, and my request had to match its value, but this third condition was not like the first two, it wasn’t a must."

"Besides, my purchase of Hui Nong Medicine Factory is not for contract manufacturing, but for making my own medicines."

"I see."

Lin Yanran let out a long sigh of relief.

At that moment, Zhang Xiaoshan continued,

"Moreover, you’re my friend. If you’ve got problems, shouldn’t I lend a hand? Consider the third condition as if I never mentioned it. I’ll bring the Red Sun Grass over to you first thing tomorrow morning."

"If your grandfather needs a doctor, I’m also willing to serve."

"Don’t say I’m not a good friend."

"Ooh..."

Lin Yanran’s heart trembled deeply, she was touched to the core, and tears nearly overflowed from her eyes.

A proud lady from a grand family like her did not have friends, nor was she cared for by others.

She had received rare affection from Zhang Xiaoshan.

It was a feeling she had never experienced before.

"Thank, thank you."

She said with a choked voice.

"Hey, it’s no big deal," Zhang Xiaoshan waved his hand nonchalantly.

"By the way."

Suddenly, Lin Yanran’s eyes lit up,

"Did you just say you want to make your own medicines?"

"Yeah, I plan to develop some traditional Chinese medicines and create my own brand. I have a lot of ancient recipes that can’t be found on the market. Even a weakened version would be considered Divine Medicine."

Zhang Xiaoshan spoke truthfully.

Lin Yanran immediately responded,

"Then, then I can help you sell them. Hundred Herbs Hall has considerable influence in the industry. Many pharmaceutical giants are my uncles. For initial sales, I could think of ways to help you."

Zhang Xiaoshan was overjoyed at her words.

Good wine needs no bush.

His ancient prescriptions had miraculous effects, but they also needed time and user testimonials. Initial market entry certainly wouldn’t be easy.

With someone’s support, it would be different.

Lin’s Pharmaceutical was a century-old enterprise, and as the Lin family’s young miss, Lin Yanran naturally knew quite a few pharmaceutical merchants.

"Okay, then I’ll thank you in advance."

"It’s what I should do."

"Alright, I’ll leave now. I’ll bring the Red Sun Grass to you first thing tomorrow."

Zhang Xiaoshan stood up to leave and drove off to White Dragon Village.

Lin Yanran escorted him to the door. Even as the car was long gone, she lingered, reluctant to leave.

"Miss, have you fallen for Doctor Zhang?" Elder Li asked with a smile.
