At the end of the month, after Huo Yao packed her things and left class, she saw Yi Lianfan already outside the class.
In the morning, Yi Lianfan had invited Huo Yao to swing by his family’s medicinal cuisine restaurant to try some of his new dishes.
The two of them chatted about Science questions as they walked out of the school campus.
Meng Ying was following behind them. The moment she overheard their conversation, she really wanted to cover her ears with her hands.
She had already spent the day listening to lectures. Now that school was finally over, she had to listen to these top students talk about Science and suffer. She was really starting to lose it.
Yi Lianfan asked Meng Ying if she would like to join them for dinner when they arrived at the school entrance. Meng Ying hurriedly shook her head and turned down his offer. She had no interest in listening to them talking about Science and Math while she ate.
She quickly waved her hand and took off.
The Yi family’s car had already pulled up by the roadside. Chen Xiang put away his phone when he saw Yi Lianfan walking out of campus. The moment he saw Huo Yao walking beside Yi Lianfan, he narrowed his eyes slightly.
“Hi.” Yi Lianfan nodded politely to Chen Xiang before he pointed at Huo Yao. “You probably remember my classmate. She came to my grandfather’s birthday party. Today, she will be coming along with me to sample the new dishes.”
Chen Xiang pursed his lips and acknowledged calmly without looking at Huo Yao. “Get in. Your grandfather is already waiting for you at the restaurant.”
He turned to walk around the car bonnet and got into the driver’s seat.
Yi Lianfan glanced at Chen Xiang before he voluntarily opened the back seat door for Huo Yao.
After they got into the car, they drove off.
A black car had parked nearby. It started its engine when Yi Lianfan’s car left and followed them.
They arrived at the medicinal cuisine restaurant 30 minutes later.
“Huo Yao, you’re finally here,” greeted Old Mr. Yi enthusiastically when he saw Huo Yao enter the private room.
Huo Yao nodded slightly. “Hi, Old Mr. Yi.”
Yu Lianfan’s mother was present as well, so she greeted her politely.
Mrs. Yi was an elegant and intellectual woman, and looked particularly refined. She smiled and poured Huo Yao some tea. “Take a seat, please.”
Huo Yao acknowledged her gently. She had a good impression of Mrs. Yi. She had the same refined aura as Song Ning and was a nice woman.
After chatting briefly, Old Mr. Yi went to the kitchen leaving Huo Yao and Mrs. Yi alone in the private room.
Huo Yao looked at Mrs. Yi and asked, “Does your lower belly get bloated lately? Do you get sweaty and restless when you sleep at night? Are you experiencing light menstruation?”
The moment Mrs. Yi heard what Huo Yao said, she was startled. “… How did you know?”
Huo Yao replied humbly. “I know a bit of Chinese medicine.”
Mrs. Yi quickly remembered her father-in-law telling her about this young woman’s medical knowledge. Also, she had given some excellent suggestions to Old Mr. Yi for his medicinal dishes.
Mrs. Yi promptly smiled and said, “That’s right. I keep breaking out in cold sweat and am also experiencing some bad dreams at night. Also, there is light menstruation flow. I went to the hospital and got some medicine, but it was ineffective. Perhaps my menopause is starting.”
“Mind if I take your pulse?” asked Huo Yao.
“Sure thing.” Mrs. Yi trusted Huo Yao even though she was young, so she extended her hand and placed it on the table.
She looked at Huo Yao warmly as the young girl took her pulse.
She was such a pretty young woman.
Before long, Huo Yao finished taking her pulse. She retrieved a pen and paper and swiftly wrote down some common Chinese herbs on it.
