Before Tong Yu left, Old Mr. Pei took the initiative to ask for his contact.
The hospital director looked at Old Mr. Pei solemnly after he left. "Old Mr. Pei, do you think the medicine didn't come from the Apothecaries' Association?"
Old Mr. Pei sat down on the couch again. He picked up the teacup on the coffee table and took a sip before he said, "No."
"Even He Shu can't refine an A grade medicine like this. I happened to see it at a friend's place. Unfortunately, he bought it from an online auction. Since then, I haven't seen anything like it in the past two years." Old Mr. Pei's eyes drifted into the distance.
It was not easy to refine an ancient medicine. Even if it could be refined, it was rare to find an S grade medicine!
The hospital director was shocked again. He Shu was a senior apothecary in the Apothecaries' Association and a genius among geniuses. If even he could not refine such a medicine... How talented was the mysterious person who made the medicine?
No wonder he asked for Tong Yu's contact details.
"I thought the Apothecaries' Association was full of hidden talents. I didn't expect the experts to be hiding among the people," lamented the hospital director after some time.
Old Mr. Pei stroked his long white beard and said ambiguously, "There's always someone better out there. The Apothecaries' Association is nothing compared to some reclusive clans."
Upon hearing this, the Dean fell completely silent. Some things were completely unimaginable, and they were not at a level that he could come into contact with.

Huo Yao went back to her room after she got home and ate.
She took out her phone and video-called the old lady after she came out of the shower. Before long, the call went through.
The old lady's familiar face appeared on the screen. Huo Yao was drying her hair as she said, "You look much better."
The old lady held the phone like a child asking for praise. She smiled and said, "You look much better."
"Did the Lu family force you to come back?" asked Huo Yao casually.
"No. I'm fine at home. Don't worry." The old lady paused and seemed to recall something. She said, "Oh yes, Yaoyao. I heard from the neighbors that someone is asking about a highly-skilled doctor."
Huo Yao's hand paused and narrowed her eyes.
"I remember you told me that the master you know is a Chinese medicine practitioner. Could it be that you're looking for your master?" Old Madam Yang asked again.
"I don't think so," replied Huo Yao with a straight face.
"Oh, that's good. As for the things in the small house, I'll put them away for you when I have nothing to do at home."
Huo Yao pursed her lips and acknowledged softly.
Twenty minutes later, Huo Yao ended the video call with the old lady. She contemplated for a moment before she stood up and retrieved the piece of paper Yi Lianfan had given her from the pocket of her jacket.
When he unfolded the paper and looked at the physics questions, he felt quite melancholic.
Finally, she picked up the pen and started to solve the problem.

On the other side, Lu Xia had just returned to the Lu family's house after a gathering with several sisters in the girl group.
Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, and Lu Ziming were in the living room. However, the couple did not look too good, and the atmosphere was tense.
Lu Xia frowned. She glanced at Lu Ziming, who was gloating. She could roughly guess the reason for the gloomy atmosphere at home.
She composed herself, walked over, and greeted them as usual.
"Dad, Mom."
