Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl (Pearl and Richard) novel Chapter 682

At first, what he said sounded fair, but then it turned into something subjective.

Pearl couldn't help but feel stressed. If she failed and he kicked her out because he didn't like her mentor, what would she do?

"Am I that kind of person?" The man seemed a little hesitant as he looked at her. Suddenly, he realized what she might be thinking and got angry.

Pearl smiled awkwardly, secretly thinking it was pretty clear what kind of person he was from what he had said. But seeing how angry he was, she didn't dare say it out loud. She cleared her throat and said, "No, you're not that kind of person."

After hearing this, the man snorted with satisfaction.

He then led Pearl into the huge medicinal warehouse. Pearl looked around and thought a place this big should have what she needed.

"Alright, now go and get medicine for typhoid fever," the man said, checking his watch. The minute hand pointed to 3. "You have half an hour."

"Half an hour is a bit too long. I just need ten minutes." Pearl knew he was not making things difficult for her, but she didn't want to waste too much time.

The man's eyes widened. "I'm giving you half an hour after taking into account the time you need to find the herbs. Ten minutes? Are you trying to be a flop?"

The word 'flop' was new to her. Pearl didn't expect someone who had traveled across the ocean to use that word.

"It really isn't necessary. Half an hour is too long," Pearl insisted.

The man nodded. "If you're that confident, I won't pressure you. You have ten minutes then. I'll check it after that." He thought she was a little too arrogant, so he added, "I'm looking for the best quality. Don't just make something basic."
