“It must be a lie! Lan Anran is pretending to be sick so that she doesn’t have to compete against Sun Hui. Sun Hui is the second best in the school… Who could beat her besides Yaxin?” Gu Qiu replied firmly.

“That may not be true… Aren’t there rumors that Lan Anran is bad luck to her parents? It seems like she has jinxed her mother…” Yang Qing analysed with regret.

“Don’t talk nonsense! She is my sister and the person that is ill is my second aunt. I’ll visit her after school,” Lan Yaxin retorted.

She didn’t know Li Yueru was ill, but even though she said she would visit her, it was all just talk, she wouldn’t go over. Their family’s troubles had nothing to do with her.

“Yaxin, you’re too kind. This time, even the heavens will support you in the Pharmacy Competition.”

Yang Qing nodded.

“Of course, I have a secret manual,” Lan Yaxin said proudly.

These past few days, she had been immersing herself in her grandma’s notebook. Her grandparents were well-known in the medical field and their notes were naturally top-notch. She had made a lot of progress.

Her friends crowded over when they heard about the secret manual.

“Secret manual? Yaxin, you’re the best, share it with us!”

Gu Qiu wanted to look as well. Of course she knew Lan Yaxin’s abilities, as the Lan Family was a medical family, and their ancestors were said to be the Emperor’s imperial physicians. She didn’t know whether it was true or not, but it couldn’t hurt to be her friend.

“I can’t… Grandma said it’s a top secret of the Lan Family, so it can’t be shared.”

Lan Yaxin gave them a teasing smile.

It was the Lan Family’s treasure and even Lan Anran didn’t have access to it, so how could she show it to outsiders?

The crowd was disappointed.

When Lan Yaxin saw their disappointment, she immediately smiled.

“I can’t show you the secret manual, but I can tell you a little secret…”

“What!?”

They immediately perked up.

“This competition is different from the past. In the past, you would show the effects of your medicine to the judges on the spot and they would give you their scores… It is different this time! There will be a foreigner amidst the judges. You know this, right?”

Lan Yaxin smiled, her eyes bright, signalling them to pay attention.

They immediately understood. The foreigner would be easier to deal with than the local judges. They just had to prepare some gifts and use their connections to get a good score.

“Yaxin, you really are the best. How do you know such things?”

Yang Qing had always been grateful for Lan Yaxin.

“Of course, I heard this from my dad. He has wide connections and this time, some of his friends are organizing the competition.”

Lan Yaxin smiled.

She just told them that there would be a special judge, she didn’t tell them to do anything. What happened next would be their own idea and couldn’t be blamed on her.

…

Two more days passed. As the days to the Pharmacy Competition inched closer, everyone was rushing to adjust their formulas, hoping to perfect it.

Lan Anran wasn’t interested in the competition, as she was focused on taking care of Li Yueru.

Lan Yanran would visit his mom in the hospital everyday, hoping she would wake up.

“Dad, when is Mom going to wake up?”

“Wait a little while more, your mom’s health is stable, so don’t worry. Focus on the competition. The competition is approaching, is your medicine ready? The Lan Family’s name can’t be embarrassed again.”

Lan Tingyun thought of the competition again… The Lan Family was always embarrassed and despised over this. Because of this, Old Mrs. Lan would mock him and his family. He couldn’t hold his head up with pride anymore.

The thought gave Lan Yanran a headache. He had been busy with his mother and hadn’t had time to work on his medicine. Besides, he was the worst every year and he couldn’t even treat colds or fevers, not to mention help the Lan Family win honor.

He couldn’t bow out of the competition either, as his father wouldn’t agree. Hence, he could only move forward.

Lan Anran didn’t say anything, she just walked to the bedside silently, holding her mother’s hand tightly and watching her quietly. She never thought that her mother would be this pretty, lying on the bed like a sleeping beauty. In her past life, why didn’t she know to cherish her?

The thought brought tears to her eyes. Suddenly, she felt her mother’s hand move. She thought it was a hallucination and dried her eyes to have a clearer look. There was really a reaction!

Lan Anran was slightly agitated.

“Mom is awake, Mom is awake!”

Lan Tingyun and Lan Yanran hurriedly ran over. Li Yueru opened her eyes slowly and said weakly, “Anran, Yanran, my love, I’m alive again.”

Lan Tingyun nodded excitedly with tears filling his eyes.

“Dear, you’re finally awake. How do you feel?”

Li Yueru smiled, a glow to her face.

“I feel much better. Before, I really thought I wouldn’t make it and was thinking about how to tell you. But now, it’s all good! I’m alive again.”

“Pssh! Don’t talk nonsense, you’re better now! You’re going to live to a ripe old age,” Lan Tingyun said solemnly.

He was definitely a good husband.

Lan Yanran went to call the doctor over to check his mother’s condition.

The doctor exclaimed after examining her, “Director Lan, Mrs. Lan really is a miracle! Her health is getting better everyday and she is recovering very quickly. She can be discharged soon.”

“Really? That’s great!”

Lan Tingyun smiled.. He found it strange as there wasn’t any cure previously, but now, she was miraculously cured. Was it perhaps…
