"This is for you," Xia Yong said, holding a box by the strap and handing it to Chi Gui. "I heard this thing helps enhance memory, which should be very useful for students."
The box was exquisite, not like those sold in the markets, but rather like it was custom-made.
Just by looking at the box, without even seeing what was inside, you could tell it was expensive.
Chi Gui raised her eyebrows but did not refuse, "Then thank you."
"I should be the one thanking you," Xia Yong smiled, said goodbye to them, and drove away.
The three of them returned to their hotel room.
Chi Gui opened the gift box, and Chu Jia and Yi Rui eagerly peered inside.
They saw that the box contained three small glass vials resting on a white velvet cushion.
When they saw the brown pills inside the bottles, Chu Jia and Yi Rui exclaimed at the same time, "These, these are the supplements that were recently developed at the international medical conference, aren’t they? I heard they can significantly improve memory, and now they’re priceless! A single small bottle could cost millions!"
And now, there were three small bottles in a single box!
"Uncle Liu must have had a significant reason for buying this, right?" Chu Jia murmured.
Chi Gui raised her eyebrows and took out a small bottle from the box, pouring out a pill and sniffing it.
It had a refreshing scent mixed with a pleasant smell of herbal medicine.
Her family still had a few small bottles of these pills at home, all sent by Uncle Liu who was in charge of the traditional Chinese medicine research for the expert group.
Chi Gui never expected that Xia Yong would give away something worth three million like that.
She looked at the small bottle in her hand, her eyes deepening.
Chu Jia and Yi Rui looked enviously at the small bottles in the box.
Chi Gui took out two bottles and handed one to each of them, "Here, for you."
Chu Jia and Yi Rui were stunned, their hands fumbling as they held the small bottles, "This, Sister Chi... it’s too valuable..."
"It’s meant to be used," Chi Gui said dismissively, waving her hand, "Perfect timing—the national competition needs knowledge that you could use these pills to help memorize."
