"Those ingredients won't kill anyone if prepared correctly," Jonathan answered, looking directly into Suryo's eyes.The gaze was sharp, making Suryo feel for a moment like he was facing someone with a depth of experience far beyond his years.However, as a doctor, he had to uphold his principles. "I respect your conviction. But in theory, this is wrong. If you still insist on using it, I must note that we decline all responsibility.""I'm not asking you to take responsibility," Jonathan said, his tone relaxed yet full of pressure. "I know what I'm doing. And I know the illness I'm trying to cure."The attendant looked at Suryo, waiting for a decision.Suryo signaled to the attendant, "Prepare the items according to the list."Jonathan paid no mind to Suryo's warning; he trusted his own abilities. In terms of medical expertise, there was no one in Pegasus City, or even the entire country, more skilled than him.---The clinic's originally calm atmosphere suddenly shifted when a grey-ha

The atmosphere in the auction house's front hall was still tense as Manager Gideon turned his sharp gaze towards Jeremy, who stood stiff as a board, frozen in fear."How dare you offend a friend of Master Anderson." Gideon's voice was loud, enough to make all the guests and staff look in their direction.Jeremy tried to answer nervously, wanting to explain, "If I had known, of course—"Before Jeremy could finish his sentence, he was cut off by Gideon. "You didn't know, because you're arrogant and foolish!"Jeremy fell silent, his breath caught in his throat."If it weren't for Master Anderson not wishing to prolong the matter, your family's name might have been tarnished today. Be thankful, and get lost before your reputation is truly destroyed," Gideon continued.Without giving him a chance to defend himself, Gideon immediately turned around and gestured politely for Master Anderson to enter the auction house.Meanwhile...Roselin clenched her fists behind her expensive dress. Her fa

Jonathan simply looked at the old man and smiled. "I agree, you certainly know your fine goods."The old man nodded in satisfaction.Jeremy was dumbfounded. "What is this?" Jeremy was suspicious; he couldn't just stand by. "This must be a setup! You're colluding to scam the auction house. There's no way that shabby chamber pot is worth two billion."The old man frowned, then turned and fixed his gaze on Jeremy. "This transaction is between me and this young man. What business is it of yours? Besides, this chamber pot is genuine, and a price of 2 billion is not excessive."Jeremy stammered in response. "I just... I just don't want this Auction House to be fooled!"Roselin also felt this was just a cheap act and began to mock them. "He's right! And who are you anyway? Don't tell me you're a paid actor?""My name is Anderson Tju. I am Master Anderson. And as it happens, I arrived early because I wanted to look for inspiration."Master Anderson was a renowned antique expert.A bodyguard b

Jeremy Bongso sat slumped in the leather chair, still nursing the pain in his ribs. Though it was only one blow, his pride felt utterly shattered. But he didn't dare act recklessly. Not without his bodyguards. Not after seeing the almost emotionless look in Jonathan's eyes.He's really not an ordinary person, Jeremy thought to himself, but his face remained cold, hiding his fear with arrogance. Later, outside, you will feel my revenge. For now, he chose not to act, as it could backfire on him.After nearly twenty minutes, the appraisal staff member returned. With an unfriendly face and a curt tone, he said, "I told you so. This item is fake. It's not worthy of being included in our auction house catalog."Jonathan was skeptical; he knew it was a valuable antique. He looked at the man calmly. "Did the staff member truly examine it properly?"The staff member tensed up, feeling doubted. He was clearly offended. "Are you questioning our professionalism?" he said angrily, slapping the app

"Jonathan! Have you truly gone insane from being so poor?" Roselin looked at Jonathan with disgust and scornful laughter. "If you really need money, just say so. I still have a little pity, as long as you know your place."Jeremy laughed loudly while folding his arms across his chest. "If you're really that desperate for money, just tell me! I can give you Five Million. Consider it charity, since I've taken your ex-fiancée off your hands."Roselin turned quickly, her expression shifting slightly. Jeremy's words were indeed too vulgar. Even though she no longer respected Jonathan, she had still almost been engaged to him. However, because of Jeremy's powerful background as the heir to the Bongso family, she didn't dare contradict him. Instead, she forced an awkward smile.His remarks drew sneering smiles from some of the VIP guests.Jonathan stood calmly, his sharp eyes locking onto Jeremy. "I suggest you stop talking before you regret it."Jeremy smirked. "Please, someone call the men

The vendor, who had just finished counting the money with great drama, stared at him. "Are you crazy, wanting to auction a chamber pot you bought for six hundred thousand?" he muttered, still standing there scratching his head that wasn't itchy. "If anyone buys that chamber pot for over a million, I'll kowtow right here in this market."Even as he said this, he wasn't truly cruel. With a mix of pity and amusement, he still told Jonathan the location of the antique market. "Head south. Just look for the old building near the river, it's called the Siluman Market.""Be careful. There are lots of scammers there too," he said as Jonathan started to walk away. "If you go there carrying a funny item like that, you might not just get laughed at, but thrown out by force."Jonathan glanced back slightly, a faint smile on his lips. "You're wrong! This chamber pot can make the entire auction house stand up in awe."The vendor could only watch Jonathan's back as he slowly disappeared, then let ou
