After some time, Huo Jinyan bent down to pick up the wooden ornament with a smile on his face and placed it back on the table. Then he placed his trembling hands behind his back as though nothing had happened. He added. "Anyway, your little sister's medicine is really effective!"
Huo Xiang was shocked. He had never seen his father acting so silly. However, his eyes landed on the porcelain bottle in his hand.
What kind of All-Nourishing Pill was this? Was it the kind of kidney tonic that he understood?
Although his spine was injured, his kidneys... Huo Xiang instantly felt embarrassed.
Huo Yao seemed to know what was on his mind. She pressed her forehead and said, "Your bottle is different from Dad's."
Huo Xiang's expression changed slightly when he heard that it was not a kidney tonic.
Huo Yao coughed and straightened her face before she explained. "This is a Yuqing Pill. It's used to treat toxins that have accumulated in your body. It's good for you in your current condition."
She did not go into detail about its effects. After all, he would not understand if she used too many technical terms.
Huo Jinyan narrowed his eyes when he heard this. He felt that his daughter was acting weird and kept saying terms that he had never heard of before.
Just like now. Poison? Repairing bodily functions? Why did it sound like the kind of scammers that were often reported in the news to trick people into buying medicine?
Huo Xiang did not think as much as his father. However, when he heard his little sister say that it was good for him in his current condition, he was shocked.
He looked at Huo Yao in astonishment. When their eyes met, his little sister's eyes seemed to be filled with a knowing look.
Did his little sister know about his injury?
Huo Xiang was stunned. Just as he was about to say something, Huo Yao winked at him and said in an unprecedentedly serious tone, "Brother Xiang, trust me. You have to take this. Take one pill every three days. Don't forget it."
Huo Xiang nodded softly after some time. "Uh huh. I got it."
Huo Yao could not tell if he took it to heart, but she did not say anything else. Instead, she turned and headed to the dining room.
Huo Xiang held the porcelain bottle with a bitter look on his face.
His little sister was being kind. Unfortunately, he could not recover from his stage dream no matter what he ate.
He casually placed the porcelain bottle in his pocket.

Before long, Huo Yao was ready to go to school after breakfast. Huo Xiang wanted to drive her to school, but his father used the excuse that he did not want to trouble his little sister.
In the end, Huo Jinyan drove Huo Yao to school.
The little old man's heart was finally satisfied after worrying about his daughter being stolen. He even hummed a tune as he walked to the estate's parking lot.
Huo Yao followed behind him with a strange look on her face. She could not understand why he was so happy today.
When they arrived at the parking lot, her father pointed at the car covered with a cloth with a mysterious look on his face and said, "Daughter, you take it off."
Huo Yao glanced at it before turning to look at him. "You got a new car?"
"That's right. My old car was too old, so I got a new one after the company got their quarterly bonus." Huo Jinyan nodded solemnly.
He didn't mention that it was because he was provoked by the Lu family's cheque-smashing behavior last time.
"Huo Huo" Huo Yan was was was, he had to her and said. "Yan"
