Chapter 274: Chapter Two Hundred Seventy-Three
Why didn’t you use the ointment earlier?
Isabella Yeaton replied seriously, "I’m just a nurse, not Edwin Blake’s assistant."
Harry Ross was speechless, "Is it too much to ask you to buy me a cup of milk tea?"
"I think it’s very much too much. You’re not a doctor at our hospital. This is for Director River to buy for the doctors. Please remember that."
After saying this, Isabella Yeaton turned and walked away, but she couldn’t contain the smile on her lips.
Harry Ross snorted coldly.
Then followed her steps to the nurse’s station and started mingling with the young nurses.
"Our madam is wealthy. Don’t worry, just get the expensive ones!"
Upon hearing this, Isabella Yeaton directly patted Harry Ross’s arm, pouting, "Director works very hard to earn money!"
"Hard to earn money? That’s just what you see. Just get the expensive ones. Even if the madam is poor, she’s still better off than you working folks!"
Under Harry Ross’s encouragement.
Everybody eventually ordered milk tea that cost 30 each.
Isabella Yeaton looked at the bill, feeling the pinch, and blamed Harry Ross, "Look, this time the milk tea cost over four thousand, boo-hoo, a third of the director’s salary is gone, all because of you."
Harry Ross took another sip of his milk tea and couldn’t help but smack his lips, "It’s delicious~"
Isabella Yeaton got angry and no longer paid attention to Harry Ross.
...
Inside the consultation room.
Edwin Blake’s forehead was covered in sweat, "Ivy River, are you doing this on purpose?"
"How could it be on purpose? I’m a doctor. Treating and saving patients is my duty. You’re in pain now because you didn’t get the implied treatment yesterday."
Ivy River said righteously.
As if Edwin Blake’s pain was not her fault at all.
Edwin Blake looked at Ivy River, wanting to say something but ultimately didn’t.
Seeing this, Ivy River directly said, "Today’s pain should be the worst, but it will be much better tomorrow. If you really can’t bear it today, just let me know. You don’t have to endure it."
Edwin Blake stubbornly said, "It doesn’t hurt."
Ivy River looked at the sweat on his forehead and smiled, "Alright, it doesn’t hurt."
With that, she started to mix the ointment.
She brought Sky Heart Lotus with her and needed to dilute it with spring water before applying it to Edwin Blake’s back.
Just as Edwin Blake was about to faint from the pain, Ivy River came back with the ointment.
She asked knowingly, "Does it hurt?"
"No," Edwin Blake weakly replied.
Ivy River couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Edwin Blake glared at her angrily, "Hold it in, no laughing."
"Hahaha, I’m sorry, I really can’t help it. Do you know, your underwear is already soaked with sweat, and yet you’re still so stubborn with your words."
Saying this, Ivy River grabbed a piece of paper and slapped it on Edwin Blake’s butt.
Then she showed him the slightly wet paper.
"Look, this is your sweat. Oh, President Blake’s mouth really is as stubborn as ever."
Edwin Blake looked at her happy face, and his heart warmed up, "Have you laughed enough?"
"No, what’s your hurry? This is just the beginning. Don’t worry, want to talk business? Deal or no deal?"
Ivy River looked at the sweat on Edwin Blake, and couldn’t hold back.
Took a towel and wiped it for him.
Edwin Blake’s stubbornness was simply unbeatable.
Sometimes, Fatty was stubborn too, which could really make him flustered.
Previously, she thought her own stubbornness wasn’t that hard to break. It turns out it was the root cause of Edwin Blake’s genes!
Edwin Blake was startled but quickly responded, "What business? Speak."
Hearing this, Ivy River came back to her senses, smiling slyly as she held up a small bottle, "This ointment, I can apply it to you, but the ingredients are quite expensive, so the cost is high..."
Before Ivy River could finish, Edwin Blake interrupted, "Stop wasting words, just tell me how much."
Ivy River smiled sweetly, "I’m an honest doctor, thirty million for one bottle."
With that said.
The air instantly fell silent.
Edwin Blake stared at Ivy River angrily, "What ingredients in it make it worth thirty million?"
"Stop talking nonsense, just say whether you want it or not. If you use it, I’ll tell you what’s in it. Don’t worry, I’m not making money off you. Consider it compensation for not giving you the needle yesterday."
Edwin Blake only felt the pain in his back getting stronger.
He nodded in agreement, "I’ll have Harry Ross transfer the money to you. Can you tell me now?"
Ivy River let out a soft hum, took off her gloves, washed her hands, and carefully applied the ointment on Edwin Blake’s back.
"It should hurt less in a while. If it still hurts, I won’t charge any fees."
Edwin Blake felt his back cool down, and the pain indeed significantly decreased.
He even felt more strength to speak, "What is this? It has slightly improved, though not much, but I’ll still pay you."
Ivy River snorted, mocking him, "You should pay. I used three Sky Heart Lotuses, six Cold Reeds, and even added Blue Stone and Rouge along with many other precious ingredients. If it didn’t alleviate your pain, that would be impossible."
Edwin Blake was taken aback, Sky Heart Lotus...
Three of them...
Although Edwin Blake didn’t know much about medicine, he knew just how valuable these herbs were.
Blue Stone and Rouge are extremely precious herbs. Although their quantity is limited, as long as the price is right, they can be found.
Cold Reeds too, due to their growing conditions, are very hard to come by even with money.
But Sky Heart Lotus, that’s a truly priceless item.
All these years, less than ten have been sold on the market. The cheapest one was over five million a piece...
He had tried to purchase it before, but the Dark Web was always out of stock and constantly showed ’restocking’.
But now, Ivy River used three on him.
He felt a bit distressed, "Where did you get the Sky Heart Lotus?"
"Dark Web," Ivy River said without changing her expression.
She wasn’t lying; Sky Heart Lotus was only sold on the Dark Web. All others were fake.
"I know it’s the Dark Web, but hasn’t the Sky Heart Lotus always been out of stock? I keep an eye on herb updates on the Dark Web."
Edwin Blake frowned, retorting, implying that you can’t trick me.
Ivy River said, "It may be out of stock for you, but not for me, understand?"
Edwin Blake squinted at Ivy River.
As if trying to glean something from her.
After a long while, he asked, "Why didn’t you use it on me from the start?"
Ivy River effectively changed the topic, "Sky Heart Lotus on the Dark Web starts at five million each. I used three, plus Cold Reeds. Just these two herbs alone cost more than thirty million, so do you think I made money from you?"
"Not at all. I’m asking why didn’t you use it on me from the start?"
Edwin Blake’s questioning gaze made Ivy River very unhappy.
Ivy River righteously answered, "Because it wouldn’t have been effective at first. Don’t you know you’re supposed to use Sky Heart Lotus to its fullest? Are you implying I’m purposefully messing with you?"
Getting angrier the more she talked, Ivy River directly punched Edwin Blake on the back.
Edwin Blake couldn’t help but let out a hiss.
His back even twitched.
Edwin Blake gritted his teeth, "You are messing with me now, don’t you understand I’m a patient?"
Ivy River laughed but showed no sign of apology on her face, "Sorry, I couldn’t hold back. I’ll try next time. But that punch I just gave will allow the Sky Heart Lotus to work even better."
