Chapter 20: Why not accept it?

After the bet was established, Ye Jingyi instantly got to work. Finding the effect of the medicine was easy for him, and that's why he was so sure to win the bet. If he had to find the materials used to make the pill, he would be in trouble, as it was close to impossible to determine the composition of the pill. This world might have some materials that did not exist in his world, and he didn't have a database of the materials of this world. But finding the effect of the pill was not hard work, as he could do it easily.

He took one pill in his hand and walked further away from the bear and Hui Ying. After keeping a certain distance from these two, he started. In his hand, small and sizeable objects made from nanoparticles appeared as they covered the whole pill. After two or more seconds, the black sea that submerged the pill retreated, and his hands returned to normal.

"Lynx! Start the analysis of this pill and tell me its effect as well as the components of the pill," Ye Jingyi commanded his AI helper, Lynx.

"Starting the analysis," he heard a cold voice from Lynx.

The analysis did not take long, and after one minute, he heard Lynx's voice again. "Inside the pill, 16 familiar and 34 unfamiliar components are discovered. Familiar components include Jewel Flower, Blood Grass, Antelope's horn, Stardust, Extreme Flower, Nihility leaf… It's discovered that 34 unfamiliar components have characteristics of some materials like Hate Mint, Black Pearl, Ember grass, White Basil, Snowy leaf… With the names of the components and after coming up with various possibilities and elimination, the most possible effect of the pill is…."

Ye Jingyi heard the detailed report of the pill, and a smile slowly appeared on his face. Now he had the answer, and he knew that he would win. Thinking of this, he walked back toward Hui Ying and the bear.

Hearing the footsteps coming near them, Hui Ying smiled and said, "Stinky! See, I told you, a man was overconfident before, now he has realized the cruel reality. Come on, tell him my first condition, which is to apologize to me."

The bear had a headache because of the constant third-person communication. But he too looked at Ye Jingyi with curiosity. Did he fail? Just like the female human said?

Ye Jingyi remained silent after listening to Hui Ying. "Baldy! Some people concluded hastily. Who told her that I have failed? I know the effect of the pill! This pill is for healing," Ye Jingyi explained, looking at Hui Ying, who was lying on the bear's back.

Hui Ying who wanted to ridicule Ye Jingyi was taken aback after hearing his answer. This is correct that the pill is a healing pill.

She didn't expect him to find the effect of the pill. Can he find the effect of the pill? No that's not possible, Even a high-level Alchemist cannot find the effect of some pill in such a short time! He must have consumed it to see that effect.

Thinking of this she became anxious, "Idiot! Why did you consume the pill for such a childish game? That pill was on an assassin! Who knows if it's poisonous? Why should I do now?" 

Ye Jingyi was startled after hearing her and his heart warmed after seeing her worried look.

He smiled and climbed on the bear's back and sat beside her. Looking at her worried face he held her hand.

"Don't worry it's not poisonous! Why don't you believe in my ability just this once?" Ye Jingyi released her hands as he held her head and said while looking into her eyes.

Hui Ying, who wanted to ridicule Ye Jingyi, was taken aback after hearing his answer. It was correct that the pill was a healing pill. She didn't expect him to find the effect of the pill. Can he find the effect of the pill? No, that's not possible. Even a high-level Alchemist cannot find the effect of some pill in such a short time! He must have consumed it to see that effect. Thinking of this, she became anxious.

"Idiot! Why did you consume the pill for such a childish game? That pill was on an assassin! Who knows if it's poisonous? What should I do now?" Ye Jingyi was startled after hearing her, and his heart warmed after seeing her worried look. He smiled, climbed on the bear's back, and sat beside her. Looking at her worried face, he held her hand and hugged her.

"Don't worry; it's not poisonous! Why don't you believe in my ability just this once?" Ye Jingyi released her hands as he held her head and said while looking into her eyes.

Hui Ying, who became worried, was hugged by Ye Jingyi. After feeling the warm breath and hearing his words, she couldn't help but say, "Who is worried about you? I am not. Wu Wu..." Just as she was saying this, her mouth was sealed by Ye Jingyi, and her eyes widened. She got kissed once again?

Ye Jingyi did not kiss her for long. After sealing her mouth for once, he released her and said, "Understand? Or do I need to explain once more?" Saying this, he leaned forward, trying to seal her mouth once again.

"Understand! Okay, I believe you!.." Hui Ying blocked his face with shyness and embarrassment. She, a dignified Hall leader of Heavenly Cloud Sect, got kissed by a brat with no cultivation base so many times!

"Listen to me, I am sorry! I know you are entangled and angry because of what happened between us previously. That was not under my control, and we cannot change the past. So rather than ignoring the reality, why don't you accept it? Don't worry; I will take responsibility, and in return, you are getting a handsome man like me! Isn't that a great bargain?" Ye Jingyi said seriously as he looked at Hui Ying.

Hui Ying was stunned after hearing him and felt that his words made sense. She cannot change the past, and what happened previously was not done by him intentionally, so there is no point in blaming him. Rather than creating a ruckus and blaming him, it's better to accept it…

"Bah! Calling yourself handsome? How can you be so shameless?" But when Hui Ying heard his last sentence, she gave him white eyes. After this, she lowered her head and said in a small voice, "Hui Ying."

"What?"

"Idiot! My name is Hui Ying!" Hui Ying looked up and glared at him.

"Oh!" Ye Jingyi was startled and happy after hearing her. From this sentence alone, he could understand that she is willing to accept him. He looked at her and said, "You can call me Ye Jingyi. Come here now, these pills are not poisonous, take them. It will heal you..."

"Hmm, give it to me."

The bear below them had a confused and strange expression. Just a moment ago, they were fighting, and now they are all chummy-chummy. So weird… Mom said humans are unpredictable and weird, and I should stay away from them. Now I feel that they have a weird disease, so I must maintain some distance. After all, who knows if this disease is contagious...
