Invincible Little School Doctor Chapter 2354: Won’t a Taste Tell You?
Previously on Invincible Little School Doctor...
Manager Wu initially planned to have Ye Haochuan take out the prepared Spirit Meal for him to see, and then he would find a way to destroy the medicinal meal.
Now seeing Ye Haochuan’s pot of Spirit Meal, he completely abandoned this thought.
"I just knew it, the ingredients used for the Spirit Meal on the third floor are all from the mid to late stages of the third level. Even if he managed to handle early-stage third-level ingredients by luck, there’s absolutely no way he can deal with the mid to late-stage ones!"
People always tend to believe what they want to believe. Manager Wu is now in such a state.
Even though he was still somewhat worried that Ye Haochuan was playing him again, he was more inclined to believe that Ye Haochuan couldn’t possibly be that capable.
The third floor was no longer a single hall but composed of several luxurious private rooms with few people.
Generally speaking, Elders of Seat Holders and others rarely came to the Dining Hall to have meals; more often, someone would specially deliver it to them.
But today, due to Manager Wu boasting in advance, these notable figures were curious if the Spirit Meal could indeed enhance tenfold medicinal effect, so three of them exceptionally came and were arranged in a private room.
"These are Hall Master Li from the Miscellaneous Hall and Vice Hall Master Zhang from the Law Enforcement Hall."
After saluting the three, Manager Wu introduced them to Ye Haochuan seriously, "In the middle is the renowned Elder Nangong."
Hall Master Li was a woman in her forties, well-maintained, still charming, especially her almond-shaped eyes, exuding a delicate allure.
Vice Hall Master Zhang, on the other hand, was a somewhat rotund Mediterranean middle-aged man, always carrying a false smile on his face.
As for Elder Nangong, Ye Haochuan didn’t know where his reputation came from; anyway, he hadn’t heard of him.
He was a man in his fifties, with a face full of bulk, unsmiling, clearly not an easy person to deal with.
"Enough with the nonsense, hurry and bring out the Spirit Meal!"
Elder Nangong glanced at Ye Haochuan, speaking impatiently.
Ye Haochuan didn’t put on airs and based on Manager Wu’s introduction, took out each person’s pot respectively.
Hall Master Li’s Spirit Meal was overall a light pink. After removing the restriction, a calming fragrance immediately filled the air, instantly putting a restless mind at ease.
Hall Master Li’s beautiful eyes showed a bit of delight, looking at Ye Haochuan with satisfaction, and then eagerly started eating.
Vice Hall Master Zhang’s Spirit Meal was quite the opposite. The moment the restriction was lifted, a frenzied flame aura spread out, making it impossible for anyone to come close.
"Good stuff, good stuff indeed!"
Vice Hall Master Zhang’s eyes lit up; without using a spoon, he grabbed the pot and began drinking it in big gulps.
Manager Wu’s face was already thoroughly unpleasant. He now knew he was tricked by Ye Haochuan again.
What was it about the third floor’s ingredients being too high-level for him? Clearly a ploy to make him lower his guard so he couldn’t meddle.
"These two pots are fine, but Elder Nangong’s one is burnt like a pot of crap. I’d like to see how good its medicinal effect can be?"
Manager Wu was indignant, still pinning his hopes on the last pot.
This Elder Nangong was specifically invited by him to use his fiery temper to properly teach Ye Haochuan a lesson.
Ye Haochuan took out the last pot, unchanged, still that charred black look. When he opened the restriction, an unpleasant odor wafted out.
"Rascal, is this the Spirit Meal you brewed for me?"
Elder Nangong blew up at a touch, grabbing Ye Haochuan by the collar as if about to eat him alive.
Ha, even if the other Spirit Meals were brewed perfectly, you’ve botched the most crucial one; you’re still doomed.
Manager Wu was overjoyed inside and watched everything unfold quietly, without any intention of intervening.
"Elder Nangong, please calm down. Maybe there’s some misunderstanding here!"
Hall Master Li, satisfied with Ye Haochuan’s Spirit Meal, persuaded.
"Misunderstanding? Clearly, this kid did it on purpose. Why are your Spirit Meals so aromatic and appetizing, while mine is so disgusting? He’s intentionally against me!"
Elder Nangong showed no regard for Hall Master Li, surrounded by Flower Energy like a flame rising.
Ye Haochuan only felt a pressure, nearly suffocating him, entangled around his body as if trying to slice him into countless pieces.
Hall Master Li’s beautiful eyes showed some pity, but he knew how terrifying Elder Nangong’s temper could be once it flared up, so he dared not speak any more.
Damn it, is this guy made of gunpowder? I haven’t even said a word yet. Why be so volatile?
Ye Haochuan silently cursed Elder Nangong’s ancestors, then spoke with difficulty.
"Elder Nangong, have you been tormented by Fire Poison so much that you’re often agitated and in pain, right?"
"How did you know?"
On hearing this, Elder Nangong’s aura diminished significantly, surprised by the question.
This ailment of his was only ever mentioned once when getting a prescription for pills at the Pill Pavilion, from a Mysterious Pill Grandmaster who couldn’t make a pill to cure it, thus providing him a remedy to include in a Spirit Meal.
Apart from that, even those brewing the Spirit Meal for him couldn’t know about his ailment.
This guy in front suddenly mentioned all this, which indeed surprised him.
"Yin Date and Ice Orchid are ingredients used to suppress Fire Poison. I deduced it backward from these two ingredients." Ye Haochuan answered truthfully.
"Indeed, I was once injured by the Mystic Yellow Meteoric Flame and have been in torment for years. To deduce the ailment from just two ingredients suggests you’ve got quite a knack for the Medical Path!"
Elder Nangong’s aura softened, but no hint of joy showed on his face.
Manager Wu was instantly displeased; if Elder Nangong didn’t get angry, he wouldn’t kill Ye Haochuan?
"Now that you know Elder Nangong’s ailment, you should have brewed the Spirit Meal properly to relieve his pain. Look at your Spirit Meal; clearly, you don’t intend to cure Elder Nangong at all!"
Manager Wu no longer pretended to be amiable and fanned the flames.
Hearing this, Elder Nangong’s eyes almost began to spark again.
"Idiot, if you don’t understand, just don’t speak, okay?"
Ye Haochuan smirked, explaining, "Yin Date is naturally black and carries a unique scent; previously, the medicinal meal didn’t appear this way because the Yin Date had not been fully dissolved."
Manager Wu was dumbfounded but retorted, "How do we know if what you’re saying is true? It might just be an excuse to cover up for Elder Nangong."
"Idiot, isn’t it easy to verify the medicinal effect? Let Elder Nangong have a taste and see the result."
Ye Haochuan looked at Manager Wu as if he were a fool, suggesting.
