Chapter 71
Lily set another herbal pill before Shaun, grinning mischievously. “You can get this life–saving herbal pill for a hundred thousand dollars. Are you interested?”
Her voice snapped Shaun back to reality. Lips twitching, he said, “You’re really playing favorites here. Loid gets it for free, but I have to pay?”
“You think it’s too expensive?” Lily rubbed her head with her fingers and grinned slyly.
“Even if someone offered me a billion dollars, there’s no guarantee that I would sell this herbal pill to them. If you choose not to buy, then so be it.”
Shaun was feeling a bit disgruntled, so he pulled out his phone moodily. “It’s not expensive. Give me your account number and I’ll make the transfer.”
Even if Lily were to ask for a million, Shaun would still comply. A hundred thousand dollars was no big deal to him.
Lily always delivered goods of the highest quality, never anything subpar.
That was a life–saving herbal pill, and Shaun was determined to get it regardless of the cost.
However, he was quite dissatisfied. Why did Loid get it for free while he had to pay for it himself? It was so unfair!
“These two aren’t even married yet, and they’re already scheming against me as a couple. I can foresee tough days ahead,” Shaun thought to himself.
“Lily, why did you make me pay?” Shaun had completed the transfer, but he couldn’t figure out why she made him pay for the pill.
Feeling puzzled, he leaned over to Lily and asked cheekily, “Am I not handsome enough?”
Upon hearing those words, Lily turned her head and actually took a good look at Shaun’s appearance.
His features were well–defined, with deep–set eyes and thin lips complemented by a high, straight nose. His tousled hair partially covered one eye, giving him a mysterious vibe.
“You’re quite handsome,” Lily replied sincerely.
Loid cast a sidelong glance at Shaun. His expression had grown noticeably colder.
Before Shaun had a chance to be happy, Lily dampened his enthusiasm by pointing at Loid and saying, ” But you’re not as good–looking as him!”
Loid’s face broke into a smile instantly.
Shaun’s expression soured slightly. He gritted his teeth and uttered, “That’s harsh.”
Lily didn’t continue bantering with them and turned to Loid with a serious expression. “Curing Bloodbane poison is no simple task. This batch of pills is different from the previous one I gave you.
“These pills can only protect your internal organs. I’ll need to treat you daily for the next month without fail. Listen, during this period, you must come to me for daily treatment without fail, even if you have urgent matters. Otherwise, you won’t survive beyond ten minutes.”
Shaun was taken aback. “Whoa, that sounds alarming!”
Lily glanced at them and calmly said, “Get someone to clean the kitchen, and don’t disturb me for the next three hours.”

Lily glanced at them and calmly said, “Get someone to clean the kitchen, and don’t disturb me for the next three hours.”
Upon hearing that, Daniel rushed to the kitchen to clean up.
“You just said you can’t make any more herbal pills today. How come you’re suddenly able to make them again?” Shaun asked, puzzled.
Lily looked at him as if he were an idiot. “Who told you I’m making herbal pills?”
Shaun was speechless. Lily was thinking of him as a fool once again.
Lily ignored them and turned back to attend to her tasks. Loid left the kitchen with Shaun and Daniel, leaving her undisturbed. Half an hour later, Lily opened the kitchen door.
She carried a bowl of dark herbal medicinal liquid and handed it to Loid, saying, “Drink it.”
Loid didn’t hesitate and immediately drank the herbal medicine. After taking a sip, his eyebrows furrowed tightly. This bowl of herbal medicine was much more bitter than anything else he had taken.
From the corners of his eyes, Loid caught Lily looking at him mockingly, leaving him feeling somewhat defiant. He had every reason to suspect that she intentionally prepared such a bitter concoction for him. After a moment of silence, Loid no longer hesitated and finished drinking it in one go.
As soon as he finished drinking, Lily said, “Daniel, fetch a bucket.”
