"I don't think a few prescriptions are a big deal to her." Pei Rong thought nothing of it. He contemplated before he said, "Didn't she take advantage of us a few times in the past? I don't think it's too much to ask for her prescriptions. "
The moment Old Mr. Pei heard this, he pressed his hand against his chest to suppress the churning discomfort in his chest. "What did the Pei family do to deserve such a shameless person like you?"
Pei Rong noticed his father panting and did not want to agitate him, so he said softly, "Think about it when you get home. After all, we are a family. You should think about my future."
Pei Rong did not dare to look at his father's expression. He turned around and started the car again.
After the car drove for some distance, he raised his head to look at the rearview mirror before he gritted his teeth and added. "If I can't get the prescriptions, Vice Chairman Qin will be ruthless. Even the Pei family will be in trouble, let alone me."
He was not trying to intimidate Pei Rong. Pei Rong had only found out about Vice Chairman Qin's powerful backer a few days ago.
Old Mr. Pei's pupils narrowed. His murky eyes were filled with disbelief.

Meanwhile.
Huo Yao did not read after she got home. Instead, she sat on the couch in the living room with her phone in her hand in a daze.
She remembered that Old Mr. Wang needed some medicine to recuperate, so she tapped on her phone gently. She did not call Assistant Wang. Instead, she searched for Zhuo Yun's number and called him.
Zhuo Yun picked up quickly. He was surprised that Huo Yao would call him. The moment the call went through, he asked cheerfully. "Miss Huo, what's up?"
Huo Yao sat cross-legged on the couch lazily. She lowered her eyes slightly and said in an emotionless voice, "It's nothing. I just need some herbs."
Zhuo Yun hurriedly said, "I'm not in the capital right now. Can you send me the list of herbs? I'll get someone to prepare them for you."
Not in the capital?
Huo Yao rubbed her phone gently and agreed. She paused before she asked. "Yu isn't in the capital either?"
"Yeah, didn't he tell you?" The moment he said it, he wanted to stitch his mouth shut. He coughed and hurriedly explained, "We left in a hurry, and the signal here isn't very good."
"Okay. Go ahead with your work," said Huo Yao.
Zhuo Yun said, "I'll get Yu to call you back when he's free."
Huo Yao replied "Okay."
When Zhuo Yun heard the end of the call, he removed the phone from his ear and pressed the button on his collar.
However, when the signal was sent out, there was no response.
Zhuo Yun walked back into the tent and looked at the laptop on the table.
In the black screen, a red dot was slowly moving, and the direction it was moving towards was the periphery.
"When can they come out?" Zhuo Yun asked the technician in front of the computer.
The younger brother didn't even raise his head as he continued to operate the computer. "At this speed, as long as we don't get lost, we should be able to get out in two hours."
Zhuo Yun nodded and said, "Continue repairing the communication link."
"Okay."
Zhuo Yun stood there for a while before his phone vibrated. He had received a WeChat message.
