Old Mr. Pei did not force her. Instead, he asked her. "Oh yes. Are you interested in herbs?"
Huo Yao looked at Old Mr. Pei and raised her brow quizzically.
Old Mr. Pei smiled and explained slowly. "I spent two years cultivating a few Buddha's White Fungus. Do you want to visit my herb farm when you have the time?"
Huo Yao was surprised to hear this. Just as she was about to say something, Old Mr. Pei's son, Pei Feng, suddenly interrupted her.
"Dad, you're getting old. We don't have any Buddha's White Fungus. Don't tell others about it."
The Peis and Yi families were old friends. Since it was Old Mr. Yi's birthday celebration, Pei Feng naturally came with his father to attend. He did not expect to bump into Huo Yao at the Yi residence.
Although Pei Feng was impressed by Huo Yao's skills, he did not think there was anything special about her since he had watched her concoct medicine the last time.
Moreover, he had asked Huo Yao about medicine refinement, so he did not address Huo Yao as Huo Yao as his father did. In fact, he felt disgusted every time his father addressed her as Huo Yao's master.
At this time, when Pei Feng saw that his father actually revealed the secret that he had cultivated [Buddha White Front], he felt that it was simply nonsense, so he hurriedly interrupted this topic and especially emphasized the word "outsider".
Old Mr. Pei was stunned when he heard his youngest son's voice. He frowned and turned to look at Pei Feng. "Scoundrel. How can you interrupt me like this?"
Pei Feng glanced at Huo Yao. However, since Min Yu was around, his attitude remained polite. He ignored the displeasure on his father's face and said, "Dad, how did we get our hands on a rare herb like Buddha's White Fungus?"
Huo Yao raised her brow and tapped her fingers on the table casually. Min Yu poured her another cup of tea. Huo Yao picked it up naturally and took a sip.
The look in Pei Feng's eyes deepened when he saw what Min Yu was doing. Why was Min Yu treating a little girl so special?
He had asked his father about Huo Yao. She was just an ordinary high school student and did not come from a prominent family.
Old Mr. Pei could tell what his son was thinking. His expression darkened. "It seems like you didn't listen to me at all."
Pei Feng curled his lips and thought in his heart, You're just a frog in a well who doesn't know that there's always someone better out there. No matter how familiar a seventeen or eighteen year old little girl is with medicinal herbs, how could she possibly remember over ten thousand types of medicinal herbs?
Perhaps she didn't even know what Buddha Bai Qian was.
Old Mr. Pei was furious. He glared at Pei Feng before he looked at Huo Yao awkwardly. "Actually, Fo Bai..."
Huo Yao put down her teacup and smiled ambiguously as she interrupted Old Mr. Pei. "You're right, Mr. Pei. Buddha's White Qian is indeed rare. It has strict requirements for the soil and environment it grows in. You can only find it in the deep mountains and forests by chance, so it is... pretty difficult to cultivate it."
Pei Feng wanted to laugh when he heard Huo Yao's words. Which precious herb did not require a strict environment to grow? Such a general explanation made it seem as if he understood it very well.
He really knew how to act.
