Chapter 368: Aggressive Muscular Duckling!

Su Shao chuckled.

"We can, but Menghao won't agree."

"Why?" David asked, unable to understand.

"Although Bluewing Cosmetics is said to be a company under the Su Family, that's only true in name. Su Menghao owns the largest share, followed by her father and then her uncle."

"So Menghao doesn't want to give up her shares."

"Exactly."

Hearing this, David fell into deep thought.

"If she can develop new, higher-quality products, her problem can be solved, right?"

"Yes, but if it were that easy, she would have already done it. Her biggest problems are that she is stubborn and doesn't have enough time." Su Shao shook his head.

David fell silent.

'If I can solve Menghao's troubles, she should fall in love with me, right?'

'However, I'm not good at beauty medicine. At most, I can provide one-on-one treatment, and that can't solve her company's problem. What should I do?'

'Beauty medicine... Beauty medicine...'

Suddenly, David recalled a memory from the past.

His master had once told him about a woman who was an expert in beauty medicine and lived in a small town near Jiangnan.

She used traditional recipes to create cosmetics.

That beauty expert had once had a relationship with his master when they were young, back when his master was traveling.

Unfortunately, time waited for no one.

After waiting for his master for a long time, she eventually gave up, got married, and started a family.

'I remember the town was called Ghaza, and her name was Shun Daiyo.'

"Grandpa, I've somewhere to go. See you later."

"Huh? Is that so? Then come back early, David."

After saying goodbye to Su Shao, David immediately set off for Ghaza Town.

---

Meanwhile, Leng Shuang and Qian Lian had already arrived in Ghaza Town, with Ringo driving them there.

Following the address they had obtained, they soon arrived at the house and knocked on the door.

"Coming~"

A pleasant female voice sounded from inside.

A moment later, the door was unlocked, and a beautiful young woman glanced outside.

"Yes, what can I do for you?"

Leng Shuang immediately put on a professional smile.

"Miss Shauna, hello. I'm the CEO of Ankang Biotech. We've come to you with an offer."

"Huh?"

The girl looked surprised.

A few hours later.

Another person arrived in the town looking for Medicine Master Shun.

Unlike Leng Shuang and the others, David didn't know the exact address of the person he was looking for, so he could only ask around.

"Medicine Master? You must be talking about Granny Shun."

The shopkeeper spoke before his expression turned regretful.

"Too bad, young man. You came too late. She already passed away."

"Pass-passed away?"

David was stunned.

"Yeah, about a month ago. I even went to her funeral."

A frown appeared on David's face.

This was completely different from what he had planned.

Now what should I do?

"Does her family still live here?" he asked.

"Her family? Well, her son and daughter-in-law died in an accident a few years ago. Now only her granddaughter lives there alone."

"G-granddaughter?"

David became somewhat excited.

According to his master, Medicine Master Shun had been a great beauty in her younger years. Even his master had been fascinated by her.

'If that was the case, then her granddaughter shouldn't be too bad either, right?' Thinking about this, David became even more excited and immediately asked for directions.

When he arrived at the place, he calmed himself down and knocked on the door.

"Yes?"

The door soon opened.

A tanned woman with a cold expression appeared before him. She had a muscular build and sharp features, looking more like someone who spent her days training than a delicate beauty.

David's excitement immediately faded. Seeing her rather average appearance, he couldn't help feeling disappointed.

'What a pity. It seems she didn't inherit her grandmother's genes.'

'A swan's granddaughter turned out to be a muscular duckling.'

'Master would probably be disappointed if he knew.'

'Forget it. As long as everything goes smoothly, I still have a beauty waiting for me to capture.'

"Excuse me."

"Who are you?" the woman asked coldly.

"Hello, sorry to intrude. I'm David, a disciple of Master Zhong."

"I don't know any such person."

The woman shook her head and was about to close the door.

David was startled by her blunt attitude.

"Please wait. I need your help. Your grandmother's skills are very important to me."

"My grandmother has passed away. How would I know her skills?"

"You don't?"

David was somewhat disappointed before asking, "Then doesn't she have any books or journals?"

As long as there were some records, he could learn her techniques.

Unfortunately...

"Not really. Most of them were sold."

The woman said those heart-wrenching words with complete indifference.

'Damn! Does she even know the value of the things she sold?!'

David didn't want to give up and asked with his last bit of hope.

"Do you have any samples of the beauty medicine she created?"

The woman nodded.

"Well, before her death, she did create a face cream for me."

"Great! Can I see that?" David's eyes lit up. From this woman's looks he could tell that she was not the type to care about beauty. So, those beauty medicines must still be unused.

"No. Why should I? Besides, who even are you to ask so many questions?" She rejected his outright.

"My master was a good friend of your grandmother." David said trying to establish a connection.

"How can I believe you? Prove it."

David tried desperately to recall something that could prove his master's relationship with Medicine Master Shun.

Unfortunately, only one detail came to mind.

['David... She had two big moles on her butt.']

'...Master, how dare I say that?! What kind of friend would know how many moles the other person had on their butt?!'

David knew if he said that, he would probably be kicked out immediately.

Unfortunately, he couldn't remember anything else.

"What are you dilly-dallying for? Hurry up! Either answer me or leave!"
