Old Mr. Pei did not go on with the topic. Instead, he said, "Oh yes. Are you interested in Chinese medicine?"
Huo Yao looked at Old Mr. Pei and raised her brow inexplicably.
Old Mr. Pei smiled and explained. "I spent two years breeding a Buddha rhizome. Do you want to check it out at my herb farm?"
Huo Yao was a little surprised. Just as she was about to speak, Old Mr. Pei's son suddenly interrupted their conversation.
"Dad, you must be mistaken. Our family doesn't have any Buddha rhizome. Please stop making a fool of yourself in front of outsiders."
Since the Pei and Yi clans were family friends, Pei Feng had naturally attended Old Mr. Yi's birthday banquet with his father. However, he did not expect to see Huo Yao here.
Although Pei Feng was impressed with Huo Yao's medicine-making skills when he observed her in the laboratory previously, it was just pure admiration. He did not feel that Huo Yao was unusual in any way.
