Chapter 424

Old Mr. Bamboo trembled as he looked at Hanson in shock. It was just as expected of the young man he had

admired at first sight, for Hanson could see through him so quickly.

"You're right, but I've learned to let go."

The past was gone with the wind, and the memories were getting fainter.

"You and The Great Chemist fell for the same person." Even though Hanson intended for it to be a question, he said

it with too much affirmation to be one.

As soon as he said that, Old Mr. Bamboo was shocked, and so was Vania. Hanson was really amazing. However,

while everyone was still reeling in shock, Hanson spoke up again with an even more alarming idea. "Master Gordon

fell for her too."

A love triangle?

They thought there was a juicy secret, but they never expected it to be so cliche. Vania, Larry, and Linda all froze a

little, a bit speechless at the turn of events.

They thought that Old Mr. Bamboo would get mad at having such a personal affair exposed, but he didn't. Instead,

he laughed and said, "You're an extraordinary man, just like I expected. However, you're not completely right."

His words had confirmed Hanson's suspicions.

"The Great Chemist went into seclusion because of her," Hanson continued guessing.

Old Mr. Bamboo was instantly stunned. "How did you know that?"

This young man was too good at reading minds.

"Just a gut feeling."

From the way Old Mr. Bamboo looked at Vania, Hanson knew that he was looking at someone he deeply loved

through Vania. However, when he shook his head and sighed, Hanson knew that it was an unrequited love. Old Mr.

Bamboo said that he had given up, but in reality, he probably hadn't.

"You and Master Gordon wrote the Legend of the Great Chemist at the same time, and you competed against each

other for so many years. In truth, you're just trying to prove your abilities to that woman."

Old Mr. Bamboo didn't deny it. He wanted to see what else Hanson could deduce from their short conversation.

"The Great Chemist didn't want to hurt her, nor did he want to break the bonds between the three of you, so that's

why he retreated to the mountains. After that, you and Master Gordon worked hard to prove yourselves and win the

woman's heart, but the woman chose to go into seclusion at the end."

Old Mr. Bamboo was shocked as he listened to Hanson's analysis. Hanson could figure out so many things just from

one look in his eyes; he was impressed.

"The Legend of the Great Chemist, which you both wrote, was written in remembrance of a dear friend and also for

this woman whom you deeply loved."

Vania felt a bit saddened, for she didn't expect the truth to be like that.

"You're right." Old Mr. Bamboo's voice was laced with sorrow.

As he listened to Hanson's analysis, he recalled what had happened in the past. They grew up together, and when

they were more than 20 years old, he and Gordon fell in love with The Great Chemist's disciple.

However, she only had eyes for The Great Chemist. Sadly, The Great Chemist devoted himself to the study of

medicine, so he had no feelings for the junior.

In order to change the girl's mind and to protect both his friendship and the study of medicine, which he was very

passionate about, he decided to enter The Broad Peaks, where herbs grew in abundance. He would spend his years

researching the herbs and medicinal ingredients which were lost to time.

"He said before that he wouldn't come back again." There was moisture in Old Mr. Bamboo's eyes.

Even the junior wouldn't return ever again.

"What happened to the girl after that?" Vania wanted to know the ending.

Old Mr. Bamboo was moved. "It's been so long, and now that I've found people who understand me, today I shall

tell you everything."

He was probably rejoicing for having encountered people who knew his heart.

So, he told Vania and the others of the past. "After that, the girl disappeared as well. No one knew where she went,

and we all guessed that she went into the mountains to look for The Great Chemist."
