Fang Chen looked at Huo Yao and instantly understood what she was trying to say.
On the surface, she was telling him that she would not divulge his secrets. However, she was actually warning him not to get anyone to investigate her.
Fang Chen's eyes flickered with surprise. Huo Yao was just an ordinary high school student, yet she exuded an inexplicably strong aura that did not belong to the average person.
Fang Chen suddenly recalled the saying, "The little lives in the wild, the big lives in the city." Some people might seem ordinary, but they were much more capable than those who were ostensibly famous.
Huo Yao's phone rang in her pocket. She pulled it out and saw that it was Huo Tingrui calling. Her fingers twitched slightly before she hung up. She raised her head and said, "The instructions and dosage are all on the list. I'm going to go now."
Fang Chen did not try to persuade her to stay. He stood up and said, "Sure." He turned to look at Lin Shuwen. "Shuwen, send Miss Huo home."
Lin Shuwen carefully folded the prescription and placed it in his pocket. He nodded and said, "Uh huh."
Huo Yao wanted to reject him, but she kept quiet when she recalled how the estate was heavily guarded.
Lin Shuwen sent Huo Yao to the entrance and instructed the bodyguards to send her home safely. After the car drove away, he returned to the villa.
Fang Chen sat on the couch and seemed to be deep in thought.
Lin Shuwen walked over and poured him a glass of warm water. "Sir, what are you thinking about?"
Fang Chen took the glass and went quiet for a moment before he said, "This young lady is quite a mystery."
Lin Shuwen looked at him with a complicated expression on his face. Then he took out the prescription from his pocket and showed it to Fang Chen. Wake up.
Wake up, isn't the point now a mystery?
Fang Chen scanned through the prescription. When his eyes landed on the consultation fee, he paused. A long while later, he shifted his eyes to Lin Shuwen expressionlessly. "Who swapped my medicine earlier?" Lin Shuwen shook his head and asked him.
Whoever did it had to pay for it!
Lin Shuwen instantly understood. He swiftly put the prescription away and pretended that he had not said anything. "I'll go get the medicine."
Then he fled as fast as he could.

In the car.
Huo Yao took out her phone and put on her earphones before she called Huo Tingrui.
Before she could say a word, Huo Tingrui's anxious voice came through the phone. "Yao, where are you now? Dad said you went missing. "
Huo Yao was a little stunned when she heard the word 'missing'. Didn't she call her father in the afternoon to tell him that she would be home late?
"... I'm outside. I'm on my way home," replied Huo Tingrui unhurriedly.
Huo Tingrui heaved a sigh of relief and said casually, "I heard from Dad that you got into a car and suddenly disappeared. I thought something happened."
Huo Yao's hand that was holding the phone trembled slightly. She was even more puzzled. "What do you mean by suddenly disappearing?"
Huo Tingrui could not understand. Huo. Huo Tingrui to Huat. Huo Tingrui.
Huo Yao narrowed her eyes. This was a huge amount of information. It did not seem like it was nothing.
Huo Tingrui coughed dryly. Before Huo Yao could ask, he said, "Why don't you send me your location? I'll pick you up."
Huo Yao glanced out of the window. The car was already on the main road in the city. She contemplated for two seconds before she said, "Okay."
