"Yes, sir!" Evan gave Warren a look.
Warren received it without saying anything and obediently followed behind Luke.
Earlier, when they were standing at the door of the suite, Evan had urged Warren to knock. However,
Warren did not dare to.
Evan then indicated that the couple definitely was not doing anything inside. After all, Luke was not the
type tock tact like that.

Warren paid no attention and stood silently at the door.
Evan bet with him again, iming Luke and Luca would definitelye out within five minutes.
Warren was forced to stand on the side where Luke and Luca would note out within five minutes.
As it turned out, Luke and Luca dide out within five minutes.
Evan''s earlier look was telling him that he had won.
However, whether he won or not, Warren did not really care. When he started following Gale and Rain,
the first lesson he learned was not to casually specte or guess about the boss'' matters. He only had
to focus on doing his own thing.
His current task was to drive Luke and ensure their safety.
The few of them took the elevator down.
Warren collected their room key cards, went to the hotel front desk to check out, and went to get their
car.
After the group got into the car, it took about ten minutes for them to arrive at the venue.
Many people had already entered the venue at this time. Since they all had guest badges, it was not a
big hassle to return to the venue. They simply walked into the venue while showing their badges.
The venue was still bustling with many people.
Even though the afternoon temperature was much hotter than in the morning, these people still
persisted. They continued to roam the venue, seeking opportunities for cooperation.
Luke said to Luca, "Do as you wish. Don''t worry, I''ll protect you."
He said this to Luca when Evan was not around.
As soon as they entered the venue, Evan was pulled away by Warren with the excuse of selecting
herbs.

Hence, only Luca heard Luke''s words.
Luca nodded and replied, "I can''t just tell Abel that I only found one herb after a day''s work. I''ll tell Abel
what they found in the morning and help him purchase it."
"Okay. Just do as you see fit," said Luke.
Luca nodded and continued to pretend to look for the herbs. She wandered around the venue.
Luke watched her leave from behind. After a while, he became busy as those people surrounded him
again.
He could only continue to entertain these people.
More than ten minutester, Luca found the booth, picked out photos of the corresponding herbs, and
negotiated with the herbalist.
She found that the herbs Shanks needed seemed to only be avable from herbalists.
Perhaps it was because the merchants would not purchase such herbs at all. She realized this and
knew why Luke''s men could find these herbs so quickly.
After confirming that the herbalist had the herb needed, she called Abel.
Abel was very satisfied after knowing the third herb had been found. He instructed her to purchase all
the herbs at any price.
Luca continued to negotiate with the herbalist.
Dealing with this herbalist was much simplerpared to the one in the morning. Even though the
selling price still exceeded the value of the herbs, it was not as outrageous as the price set by the
herbalist Luca met in the morning.
After agreeing on the price and paying a deposit, Luca gave the herbalist Abel''s pharmaceutical
company''s address. After arranging for the delivery, she continued to stroll around the nearby booths.
By now, she had essentiallypleted two tasks in one day, so she felt relieved.
As for whether Luke''s men could find the others, she felt it was out of her hands.
She figured that they should have almost finished touring the venue.
With so many booths around, they only managed to find three types of herbs. There were two more
they could not find.
Luca wanted to find them too—not to im credit from Abel but to understand what Shanks really
wanted to research. She needed to collect all the herbs for analysis to understand what Abel and
Shanks were up to.
This was important to both Luke and her.
However, the smooth morning did not guarantee a smooth afternoon.
Before the industryworking event ended, Luke''s men found the fourth type of herb at a booth
outside.
Luca did not inform Abel about this fourth herb. She pretended she did not know about it, but she
asked Luke''s men to buy some.
They could not find the fifth type of herb until the end of the event.
Neither could Shanks'' side.
After the event ended, Luke left the venue under Warren''s escort.
Luca followed Luke as well.
What she did not know was that Abel was standing in the smoking area of the venue, looking quite
displeased.
They only found three types of herbs...
The look on Abel''s face was gloomy as he said to Shanks, "Wasn''t there news that all five types of
herbs would be avable here?"
"How should I know?" Shanks'' expression was cold. He also felt helpless at being unable to find the
herbs he wanted.
Still, what could he do? If they were not found, then that was that.
Even if Abel sent his men to subdue all the herbalists here, they still would not find them.
They had already asked all the booths at the entire event, including the ones outside.
The herbalists said they did not have them, so they could only treat it as if they did not. They could not
just subdue them and interrogate them...
"How did your men get their information?" Abel was very dissatisfied, thinking that Shanks'' people had
not done enough.
"My men are your subordinates too. You can ask them where they got this information from." Shanks
rolled his eyes. He rarely did that, but this time, he was truly helpless.
This was truly the case of Abel''s men being useless.
Out of all the transmitted messages, some were true while others were false.
If the transmitted message this time had beenpletely false, they would not have been able to
gather three types of herbs. However, if the message had been entirely true, they would not have only
found three types of herbs either.
Therefore, the message was true but not entirely.
Abel calmed himself down, only to realize that all those who gathered information were his
subordinates.
If they could not find the other two types of herbs, it really could not be med on Shanks...
"Is it possible that Ivana is behind this?" Abel suddenly thought of this possibility.
Ivana knew they were collecting herbs. After she found one type of herb in the morning and another in
the afternoon, there was no further news from her.
What if she found the herbs but did not report to them?
To expedite the search for the herbs, Abel deployed every avable resource. He was solely dedicated
to locating these herbs. Consequently, there was no one left to keep tabs on Luca.
"But your men are also searching for these herbs, so it''s your problem too," replied Shanks.
"You..." Abel was even more puzzled. Why was everything his problem? He was now muttering to
himself that he should not have let Ivana act alone.
No matter what, he should have assigned someone to follow her...
They only had three types of herbs on hand at the moment. Abel asked again, "Is three enough?"
"I can''t start my research until I have all five types of herbs. I hree won''t do," replied Shanks.
"Thebination of three herbs is poisonous. Only when all five types arebined can the toxicity
be neutralized while still achieving the desired medicinal effects. You wouldn''t want me to experiment
on your Kassy with just three herbs, would you?"
