After receiving the call, Xia Ye took a taxi directly from the Academy of Sciences to Xie Yuan's house.
She had begun preparing the medicine for Liu Manyi long ago, although she hoped that Liu Manyi would never need to use it, but now it seemed...
Moreover, more importantly, the prescription she was preparing for Liu Manyi was missing an herb called Aiyeqing, which grew in extremely cold areas and was not available in ordinary pharmacies. The only possible place to find it was at her disciple Xie Yuan's home.
The Xie Family's servants recognized Xia Ye. Although she had only come over to eat a few times, she was the only young girl who had accompanied Elder Xie for meals!
After serving tea to Xia Ye, the servant respectfully said, "Miss Xia, please wait a moment. I will go to the Bamboo Forest to inform Elder Xie."
"Please hurry," Xia Ye said, "a human life is at stake."
Half a minute later, Elder Xie had not shown up, but his great-grandson, Xie Zikun, arrived first.
