The Invisible Daughter (Yunice Saunders) novel Chapter 201

Chapter 201 The Ginseng

Yunice picked it up and glanced at it. “Is this ginseng?”

“Yeah.” Quinton said. “Ginseng helps with energy and vitality. I’ve always had a habit of drinking ginseng tea.

Yunice fished out the ginseng and brought it close to her nose for a sniff.

Quinton looked puzzled. “Something wrong?”

Then he shook his head, thinking it couldn’t be. “I’m in the pharmaceutical business myself. There’s no way I’d end up with fake medicine.”

“You usually drink ginseng that’s under six years old?” Yunice asked.

“Of course not, Quinton denied. This one’s a rare hundred–year–old root. If it weren’t for this recent diagnosis, I wouldn’t have had the heart to use it.”

“But this isn’t even six years old. Yunice said. “Immature ginseng is considered hot in nature. Taking it directly like this is bound to cause inflammation.

“So I’m just inflamed?”

“Even with cancer, there’s no way it jumps from early stage to advanced in just three days,” Yunice replied

Hearing that, Quinton lit up and quickly asked for confirmation. “So what you’re saying is, my condition didn’t suddenly worsen–hese symptoms were all caused by over–supplementation?” Yunice didn’t answer directly. “Do you still have any of this ginseng left?”

“Yeah, of course!” Quinton immediately pulled a box of ginseng from the medicine cabinet

Even before he opened the package. Yunice recognized it. “Wait isn’t this one of the gifts you sent to the Saunders family

She remembered it clearly–among the ten gifts he had sent, the jade bracelet and the hundred- year old ginseng had been the most valuable.

Quinton opened the wooden box “Exactly. I couldn’t re–gift something like that after it had already been given It felt like such a waste to just leave it sitting there, so I started brewing it for

Ar that. Yunice got a bad feeling Once the box was open, sure enough, there was a huge ginseng

outside Quinton said. “See How could a sis year old ginseng grow this bag?

De root was indeed mastive, and every fase tendril was secured with gold wire–perfectly arranged and visually impressive.

11. 11.

The whole ginseng looked samless, nothing like a malles immature six year old one

Yunice reached out, sappest olla tendril, and hewed it before spitting it out.

Then she broke oil another from the opposite side and tasted it again.

Quiton had no idea what she was doing, but Vinice des lared with certainty. “This is a high- quality counterfeit

a spliced rot

Quinton refused to believe it. I got this through a reliable source, all tested. No way it’s fake. I’ve been in this business for years—my reputation counts for something.”

Quinton’s expression darkened His voice mest cold “They really stared to pull something like this im me Looks like Chwen doen’t take me seriously at all

Tis not defensiling him I just know the kind of person he is. He’s arrogant and pretentions, even if he waited southing he wouldn’t up to stealing it
