Wei Ruo had thought of Wei Jinyi for an instant, but she didn't expect him to actually return!
"Mhm." Wei Jinyi responded.
"Are these medicinal herbs a gift from my second brother?" Wei Ruo asked.
"Mhm, I ran into them on the way and picked them casually." Wei Jinyi replied.
Wei Ruo laughed out loud. This lie from her second brother was too clumsy.
Firstly, the rarity of these medicinal herbs was precisely because they were hard to find, not something found everywhere. She could believe him if he said he chanced upon one plant, but it was too unbelievable for him to pick a whole box casually.
Furthermore, her second brother was not a doctor. If he didn't intend to pick these herbs, he wouldn't even recognize them and would disregard them as common weeds.
Seeing Wei Ruo laughing, Wei Jinyi knew his lie was exposed, and a hint of red crept up his face.
"Thank you, second brother. I really love your gift!" Wei Ruo joyfully said.
