"Why are you asking about this?" Old Mr. Pei was a principled man. Although Huo Yao had been working in the medicine association all these years, he was well aware of Old Mr. Pei's character.
Old Mr. Pei must be up to something.
Pei Rong smiled. "Nothing. This young lady is really something. Dad, you might not know this, but she is now the Vice President of the medicine association."
Old Mr. Pei was surprised for a moment. However, when he recalled Huo Yao's medicine, he instantly understood.
Pausing for a moment, he collected his thoughts and suddenly snorted coldly, "So? Do you want me to be the middleman and ask her to take care of you? Don't tell me you've forgotten that you secretly used her prescription to refine medicine last year? "
Pei Rong looked annoyed when his father brought up the matter again. "How many times do I have to tell you? Since she gave us the prescription, what's wrong with me using it to make medicine?"
All she did was use the prescription to make medicine. Did he have to use the word 'steal' to describe it?
Pei Rong felt that his father was muddle-headed at times. Why did he insist on being righteous and unreasonable?
Did he not know what era they were in? Why did he still adhere to such old-fashioned rules? If he had been in the medicine association, he would have been kicked out a long time ago.
"You're just like Pei Feng. You both have mental problems," scolded Old Mr. Pei angrily.
He had assumed that Old Mr. Pei was not a good person, and Old Mr. Pei was no better.
Pei Rong shook his head speechlessly. He recalled Vice President Qin's instructions and suppressed his frustration. "Fine, fine. It's my fault. You're right."
Old Mr. Pei did not want to start a meaningless argument, so he turned to look out of the car window.
Pei Rong raised his hand and pressed his forehead. After some time, he said in a softer tone, "Dad, I have a favor to ask of that young lady. I need you to be the middleman."
Sure enough.
Old Mr. Pei veered his eyes expressionlessly and said in a deep voice, "Don't even think about it."
Pei Rong was infuriated that Huo Yao had rejected him without asking any questions.
He stopped the car by the side of the road and turned to look at his father. "Can't you let me finish before making a decision?"
Old Mr. Pei realized that he was being overly emotional, so he inhaled deeply. "Speak."
"The medicine association is currently undergoing internal changes. With my current qualifications, it's too difficult for me to be promoted again. However, there's an opportunity right in front of me. As long as I can produce a few ancient prescriptions, I might be able to become the vice chairman of the association."
Pei Rong had promised Vice President Qin to do this.
It was said that Elder Wang's health was failing, and the position of President would soon be vacant. Once Vice President Qin took the position of President, he would naturally receive many benefits.
Huo Yao had written out a prescription in front of everyone during the Pharmacy Association's assessment. She did not seem to mind at all, so she must have more than one prescription.
It just so happened that his father had a good relationship with that little girl, so what if he helped her out?
The moment Old Mr. Pei heard Pei Rong, he felt his blood pressure rising again. He pointed at Pei Rong and trembled in anger. "How shameless can you be? Do you think prescriptions are given out so easily? "
Old Mr. Pei originally thought that his son would at most ask him to ask Huo Yao for some of her medicine. He did not expect his son to covet her prescription.
