In a research institute in the capital, a man had just finished an overnight experiment. When he picked up his phone and saw the text from [Medicine Pill], his drowsy mind instantly sobered up.
Education Association?
It seemed to be an organization set up by a bunch of scholars who had nothing better to do and wanted to contribute to society.
The man did not understand why Huo Yanxi would suddenly ask him about this. However, he quickly typed a reply: [The Education Association is actually a talent incubator. It specializes in recruiting all kinds of talents for various universities. It's not bad... I guess. After all, it's a contribution organization.]
A look of realization dawned on Huo Yao's pretty face after she read the text. Then she slowly replied: [Thank you.]
Fine. She had thought that it was impressive. It turned out to be a licensed multi-level marketing organization.
[Do you have a student at home? One of my seniors is a board member of the Education Association. I can help you contact him.]
The man sent another text to Huo Yao.
Huo Yao held her phone and fell silent. She did not reply for a long time.
[Big Boss?]
Huo Yao sighed softly and replied: [... Thanks, but I don't need it.]
The man felt that something was amiss when he saw her reply. However, on second thought, Huo Yanxi surely did not need it. After all, he could not possibly be a student.
[Oh yes, Big Boss. There will be a large-scale auction at the black market in the capital in a few days. As far as I know, a supreme-grade Seven Leaf Lotus will appear. Weren't you looking for this herb? I have an invitation card to the black market. If you want to go, I can mail it to you.]
Huo Yao contemplated for a moment before her fingers twitched. [It's okay. I have to go to school. I don't have time. I can't leave.]
The man, who was waiting for a reply and had just picked up a cup of water to drink, was so shocked that he spat out the water he had just drunk.
School?
No time?
Was he hallucinating?
Wasn't Huo Yanxi an old man in his 70s or 80s?
**
Huo Yanxi had planned to stay at Huo Yao's place for a while, but he left without even staying for a day. Perhaps it was because he had left on bad terms with Huo Yao in the morning.
He looked at Huo Yao with disappointment on his face before he left.
However, Huo Yao was unaffected. She continued to read quietly and obediently. Song Ning was displeased with her eldest son's behavior.
Afraid that the relationship between the two siblings would become more and more tense, he simply ordered his eldest son not to come home for the time being, lest he affect the atmosphere of the family.
In the afternoon, Song Ning complained that she had a headache. She wanted to go to the Chinese medicine club she frequented to get a massage, but Huo Yao stopped her. "Let me give you a massage."
Song Ning massaged her temples and waved her hand at her. "It's okay. Go read your books. I'll get a Chinese doctor to give me a massage and a couple of needles."
Huo Yao frowned and said sternly, "If you have a headache, don't simply massage or use acupuncture. If you don't find the right acupuncture points, it will worsen."
Song Ning was stunned for a moment. Then, she smiled and said, "It's fine. I've been treating this old Chinese physician for many years. He's quite skilled. Don't worry."
Huo Yao went quiet before she said, "Do you want to try my technique? If you still feel uncomfortable, why don't you go to the old Chinese medicine doctor? "
Song Ning took her daughter's words as a sign of filial piety. She glanced at her daughter and didn't refuse. She sat down in the armchair beside her.
