Chapter 362 - 362: Medicine Lord Mu Jiangli
However, Liu Shimei had a strange feeling: not only did this person recognize her, but they also seemed quite familiar with her?
But she had sifted through all the memories of the original owner and was certain that she had never seen a face like this before.
The man was tall and imposing, with a physique not much different from Huangfu Lingyao’s. His black robe had a rolling golden edge, and at the cuffs, there was an embroidered flower, though it was hard to tell if it was a peony or a rose. It exuded subtle luxury.
His features were rugged and well-defined, unlike Huangfu Lingyao’s delicate and somewhat effeminate appearance. He had the kind of rugged handsomeness that was very masculine.
As a fan of handsome men, if there was someone like this in her memories, she could not possibly forget him!
“Do you, sir, recognize me?” Liu Shimei was full of confusion, not realizing that Huangfu Lingyao showed no urgency to pull her away.
On an ordinary day, if he encountered such a good-looking man who voluntarily stopped his wife, given his jealous temperament, he would have already lost his temper!
But at this moment, he held her hand and stood still, his face showing a skeptical expression as he asked, “Who are you? What do you want with my wife?”
His tone was still not very polite, but there was no hostility. The jealousy vinegar jar had not tipped over yet!
After a brief moment of surprise, Shu Jun stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and inquired, “May I ask if you are the Medicine Lord – Young Master Mu Jiangli?”
Liu Shimei paused, turned her head to look at Shu Jun, and thought to herself, Medicine Lord? Sounds quite impressive. The excitement in the man’s eyes quickly settled down. He glanced at Liu Shimei, then his gaze casually passed over Huangfu Lingyao and finally turned towards Shu Jun.
His voice was gentle as he said, “This young master has a keen eye.”
Shu Jun respectfully replied, “Young Master Mu, your reputation precedes you. Among the two individuals my father always wished to meet, the first is the Ghost Doctor Qi Yang, and the second is Young Master Mu. I’ve heard that you always have peony patterns embroidered on your cuffs, echoing Young Master Mu’s name ‘Jiangli’. It was only after seeing the pattern on your cuff that I recognized you.”
He was known for peonies… And this guy’s name was ‘Jiangli.’
Ah, so that’s it. It seems that this Mu Jiangli has quite a story behind him! Liu Shimei glanced at Shu Jun and said, “Your father is quite… a celebrity chaser!” And a very enthusiastic one at that!
Mu Jiangli smiled warmly and asked, “May I inquire about your esteemed father’s name?”
Shu Jun nodded, “My surname is Shu, and my father’s given name is Han.”
“So, you’re the standout talent of this generation from the Shu family. It’s no wonder you recognized me.” Mu Jiangli said amiably, “I’ve heard that the Shu family has produced a genius in this generation, and I presume it’s you, little brother.”
After saying this, he cast another glance at Liu Shimei.
Huangfu Lingyao made a disdainful sound and subtly pulled his wife, hiding her behind him while giving Mu Jiangli a warning glare.
Mu Jiangli fell silent.
Liushimei hadn’t noticed this small detail, and she furrowed her brow in thought for a moment before finally recalling where she had heard the title ‘Medicine Lord’ before.
“Medicine Lord? Is that the legendary figure who controls all the major medicinal businesses in the Four Kingdoms?”
It came back to her; it was Qi Yang who had mentioned the Medicine Lord’s name. Qi Yang only remembered the resounding title, knowing only that this person had the medicines no one else had and did not pay much attention to what he was called.
But why use the word ‘legendary’?
That was naturally because Mu Jiangli, like a mythical dragon, was rarely seen in the eyes of the world, even more mysterious than ‘See You Never’ Zhong Lang!
To be able to be called a ‘Lord’ in this regard clearly meant that he had reached a level that others could not attain!
That was also why Shu Jun was able to recognize him!
Upon hearing Liu Shimei’s question, Mu Jiangli immediately turned to face her, his eyes bright. “Eldest Young Miss Liu is too kind. I’m just fortunate.”
Liu Shimei replied with a smile, “You can’t just attribute it to luck; luck is favor from the heavens.”
Mu Jiangli humbly responded, “Eldest Miss Liu is too modest.”
Once she recognized this person, she immediately began to calculate in her mind..
