Old Mr. Pei was known as a national sage doctor. He was highly skilled in Chinese medicine and was the descendant of a Chinese physician family. There were so many people who wanted to be his disciple that the entire street could be filled with people. He had never heard of anyone asking him to be his disciple!
Although Huo Yao seemed to be very knowledgeable about Chinese medicine... it was unbelievable that a national sage doctor wanted to be her disciple.
Old Mr. Yi looked at Huo Yao quietly. A moment later, he asked her. "Do you have medical skills?"
He spoke in a calm tone.
Huo Yao did not even blink. "I do... a little."
"Hehe." Old Mr. Yi chuckled expressionlessly.
If Huo Yao only knew a little, Old Mr. Pei would probably want to take her in as his disciple instead of addressing her as Little Master Huo.
After all, he was not the kind of person who liked to joke around.
No wonder Old Mr. Yi looked at him strangely when he mentioned that Huo Yao was suitable to be a medicinal chef.
He must have known the inside story, which was why he had been joking around.
Since Huo Yao was so well-versed in Chinese medicine at such a young age, it made sense that she was well-versed in Chinese medicine.
Old Mr. Yi did not say anything else, nor did he mention taking her in as his disciple. Instead, he placed his hands behind his back and walked into the kitchen.
Why did he want someone who even Old Mr. Pei wanted to be his disciple?
It seemed so surreal.
Huo Yao blinked and looked at Old Mr. Yi in bewilderment. However, she quickly veered her eyes away and left the kitchen.
Old Mr. Pei had already ended his call with a solemn expression on his face. He glanced at Huo Yao as she walked past him. His lips parted slightly before he said, "Little Master Huo, are you going back to the main hall now?"
Huo Yao glanced at Old Mr. Pei carefully. She noticed a worried look on his face, but she did not probe further. Instead, she nodded and acknowledged him softly.
Old Mr. Pei knew that he had nothing to do in the kitchen, so he put his phone in his pocket and smiled. "Let's go."
Huo Yao nodded slightly.
After they left, Old Mr. Yi went into the kitchen and said to his grandson, who was still busy cooking, "Lianfan, I have a question for you."
Yi Lianfan was shocked by his grandfather's sudden friendliness. He almost dropped the shovel in his hand. "Go ahead."
Old Mr. Yi coughed and paused for two seconds before he said, "I asked you to talk to Huo Yao about accepting a disciple yesterday. You..."
Yi Lianfan instantly understood what Old Master Yi meant. Before Old Master Yi could finish his sentence, Yi Lianfan interrupted him. "I've already told you. Don't worry, Grandfather. I'll get everything done as soon as possible."
Elder Yi, who had yet to say, "You didn't say it, did you?"
Usually, this dog wasn't proactive at all when he was asked to do something. Why was he so obedient now?
Elder Yi flung his sleeves in frustration and left.
Yi Lianfan was clearly very amiable a second ago, but in the next second, his attitude changed and he was suddenly despised. "???"
What did he do wrong?

Huo Yao returned to the living room and sat down in her seat.
Min Yu raised his eyebrows and looked at her. "You were gone for so long?"
"I went to the kitchen." Huo Yao picked up the teacup on the table and finished it in one gulp.
Min Yu nodded. He reached for the teapot with his slender fingers and poured her another cup.
Huo Yao thanked him. Before the dinner party started, she pulled out her phone. There were two missed calls and a few WeChat messages.
