Geo took the porcelain vial with an easy grin. “Then I won’t be polite about it p>

He had experienced this girl’s medical skills firsthand-even if he hadn’t witnessed them with his own eyes.
Jorge had told him just how dangerous his condition had been; the fact that she had pulled him back from the brink of death spoke volumes. And she had done it using traditional medicine, knowledge passed down for generations. Who would have thought a young girl could wield it with such mastery?
On top of that, he had taken the pills produced by Skyreach Pharmaceuticals; their effects had been remarkable. Even the nation’s top physicians had been in awe of them. If the pills Lillian made by hand were even better, he had no doubt they were extraordinary.
The people nearby were stunned by the sight. They had all given expensive birthday gifts, none of which Geo had even glanced at.
Yet this young girl had given him a single health pill, and Geo had personally accepted it. Their eyes inevitably lingered on her with curiosity.
“Hahaha! Lillian, my dear girl, could he beg one more pill off you?” Austin and Houston walked in just then.
Seeing who it was, Lillian smiled. “Hi, Mr. Austin, Mr. Houston p>
The two made their way over to Geo. Austin grinned broadly. “Geo, apologies, apologies-we’re late p>
“You old rascal. I thought you’d forgotten all about me.” Geo laughed and shook his head. “If it weren’t for my birthday, I bet you would have p>
Austin’s grin carried a touch of pride. “This year’s been busy, I’ll admit. Not long after Lillian treated my daughter-in-law, she got pregnant and gave birth to a big, healthy boy. The whole family’s been wrapped around that little guy ever since p>
At the mention of his grandson, Austin’s smile only deepened. Thanks to Lillian, his household had been filled with joy and harmony.
Geo looked at Lillian in surprise. “So your daughter-in-law was cured by this girl too p>
“That’s right.” Austin puffed up proudly. “Her medical skill is something I have to admire. My daughter-in-law only took the medicine Lillian gave her for a month; by the third month she was expecting.

“That’s why I say her medicine is extraordinary. The pill she just gave you? Only one per bottle. Last time, she gave me one too. I hadn’t had the heart to use it, but my wife ended up taking it instead.
“The results were astonishing. Now she spends her days climbing mountains with her friends while I sit home envious. So here I am, shamelessly asking for another one p>
Geo glanced at the vial in his hand and quickly tucked it into his pocket, as though afraid someone might snatch it away.
The onlookers were even more amazed; if these two old men endorsed her so strongly, then this girl was clearly no ordinary person.
Just then, Lambert and Tania walked in, followed by several young people.
“Dad, what’s got you so cheerful p>
Geo beamed. “Lillian just gave me a real treasure, that’s why. Unlike you unfilial kids, who only know how to bury yourselves in work; not one of you bothers to think about me p>
Lambert glanced at the girl beside Geo and smiled. “Lillian, long time no see.
“Mr. Lambert, long time no see,” Lillian answered with her usual gentle smile.
Suddenly, a young woman stepped forward, staring at Lillian for a long moment before saying, “So you’re the famous Lillian. Seeing you in person really does beat hearing about you. Hi, I’m Ashley. Grandpa talks about you all the time-he says if we were even half as outstanding as you, he’d go to sleep grinning. I’ve been curious about you ever since.” Her clear gaze swept over the girl who looked so much younger than them, yet there was no denying her presence was impressive.
Cayden chimed in with a laugh. “I swear, Ashley’s telling the truth. I’m one of the ones who’s had to listen too p>
“Ashley, don’t be so rude,” Tania scolded her daughter, then turned to Lillian apologetically. “Please don’t take offense; she’s spoiled, and her words don’t always have the right weight p>
Lillian smiled. “It’s fine. There aren’t many girls these days as straightforward as Miss Locke; that honesty is her greatest charm p>
Ashley’s pride swelled at that. “See? Someone actually appreciates my personality. I could never be the type to hide things-I just can’t do it.” She winked playfully at Lillian.
Tania gave a helpless little smile. “As long as you’re happy p>
Seeing how well they were getting along, Geo waved a hand and said to Ashley, “Ashley, Lillian came to the party alone today. Make sure you take good care of her for me p>
