Bei Fengjin did not stop, he turned and walked to the side.

He reached a cabinet and twisted something on a bottle.

The cabinet unexpectedly split from the middle, revealing steps leading underground.

Baili Xia couldn’t help but be secretly astonished again; it seemed those outside were just the tip of the iceberg.

A true expert indeed has areas that surpass ordinary people!

Her little heart pounded eagerly, already impatient to see what good things were hidden in the secret chamber below.

Bei Fengjin casually pressed a switch on the side to turn on the lights below, then entered.

Baili Xia followed down tens of steps, passed through a small door, and her vision suddenly expanded.

This was a large underground chamber, lined with dozens of medicine cabinets, each filled with well-marked bottles.

Baili Xia was completely stunned by this scene.

These medicines were all refined by Bei Fengjin and stored here.

Which means, perhaps none of these medicines would ever be seen by the outside world.

If not for the favor of Bei Tianyou today, perhaps she would never have had the chance to witness this in her lifetime.

Bei Fengjin weaved through these medicine cabinets and shortly returned, holding a bottle and two wooden boxes.

He handed these medicines to Baili Xia and said plainly, “For specific usage, ask him.”

“Thank you, Mr. Fengjin,” Baili Xia said promptly.

“Since you are with You’er, call me Uncle Fengjin from now on,” Bei Fengjin said blandly.

He meant nothing else, but to allow You’er to take such valuable medicine from him, at least, she must be someone very important.

He was just lazy, simply referring to her as You’er’s person.

But to Baili Xia’s ears, it was inexplicably awkward.

However, neither Bei Fengjin nor Bei Tianyou seemed to mind, so she pretended not to have heard.

“Uncle Fengjin,” she called obediently, and this affectionate term warmed her heart.

She couldn’t quite understand why, but she simply liked to be close to him.

Uncle Fengjin…

at least, it was a step forward.

Her bond with the man who loved her mother all his life grew closer.

Gathering her wits, Baili Xia picked up the bottle and boxes to take a look.

They were labeled Heaven Pill, Double Vein Patch, and Black Jade Continuation Cream.

“Go pick one more, consider it a gift from me,” Bei Fengjin added.

That “Uncle Fengjin,” gently spoken, also sounded pleasant to Bei Fengjin’s ears.

He didn’t like to socialize, but it depended on the person.

This girl looked like You’er, even if he knew she wasn’t, he would think…

at least, treat her better.

As if making up for the regret of no longer being able to be good to You’er.

“I really don’t need it, it’s too valuable,” Baili Xia hurriedly declined.

“Are you really going to embarrass Uncle Fengjin?” Bei Tianyou’s calm voice came through, causing Baili Xia to glance awkwardly at Bei Fengjin.

Bei Fengjin was also looking at her, his thin lips slightly opened, “Go take one.”

Though his voice was soft and calm, it was indisputable.

Baili Xia felt a bit embarrassed, but she couldn’t refuse either, so she somewhat woodenly walked towards the medicine cabinets.

The medicine, there was really a lot, and Baili Xia didn’t know how to choose.

She only wanted to pick the most ordinary, least valuable one.

But she knew it was impossible, any bottle here would undoubtedly be priceless.

After several rounds between the cabinets, she finally saw a bottle that looked familiar.

This medicine…

it seemed to have been seen somewhere before.
