a.s.sistant w.a.n.g shook his head and denied. “Nope. It’s just a regular prescription.”
Ancient prescriptions were very hard to refine. Moreover, no one had heard of the new honorary deputy chairman before.
The deputy chairman narrowed his eyes and did not keep probing.
Before long, the storeman was done preparing the herbs. a.s.sistant w.a.n.g took the herbs and left the Chinese herb storehouse.
After he had left, the deputy chairman asked the storeman about a.s.sistant w.a.n.g’s herbs.
The storeman told him about the list before going back to work.
Pei Rong was standing beside the deputy chairman. When he heard the storeman mention a few special herbs in the list, he could not help finding them familiar.
For a moment, he was unable to recall anyone using those herbs.
Pei Rong looked at the deputy chairman and pondered for a couple of seconds before he said, “Deputy Chairman, most of the herbs aid in recovery. It doesn’t sound like it is intended for an ancient prescription.”
The deputy director was in his fifties. He had medical knowledge and took good care of himself, so he only looked like he was in his forties. He nodded “Uh huh. None of them seem unusual.”
Even if any of the herbs could achieve unusual effects, it was impossible to achieve the same effect only with the prescription without the exact same steps.
Pei Rong stopped taking the medication to heart upon hearing this. He glanced at the storeman as he continued preparing the herbs and said, “Oh yes. Deputy Chairman, have you had the chance to look at the book which I pa.s.sed onto you previously?”
The moment the deputy chairman heard this, he quickly took interest. “The book contains a lot of interesting prescriptions. They are probably ancient prescriptions.”
The deputy chairman paused before he continued. “Perhaps I haven’t read it well enough, so I keep feeling that I am missing something.”
Pei Rong pondered and said, “The book was pa.s.sed down in my family for generations, so it is probably very old. I am sure it is not easy to grasp its contents.”
“That’s true. I will go over it again. That is if you don’t mind letting me have it longer,” said the deputy chairman.
Pei Rong smiled. “Help yourself. You can keep it for as long as you need.”
The deputy chairman nodded. He liked people like Pei Rong who deferred to authority.
Before long, the storeman came back with the herbs. Since the deputy chairman was busy, he left first.
After he left, Pei Rong finally recalled why he found the prescription so familiar. Not long ago, Lin Shuwen had come over asking him for help purchasing some Chinese herbs. Weren’t they exactly the same?
Pei Rong was briefly puzzled, but he did not ponder over it deeply and simply decided that it was a coincidence.
After all, many illnesses were similar in nature, so it was normal for prescriptions to be similar.

a.s.sistant w.a.n.g sent Huo Yao a text message asking where he should send the Chinese herbs. Huo Yao was in the school laboratory when she received the message. Since Min Yu just texted her asking her when school was over, she contemplated before deciding to call Min Yu.
Min Yu acknowledged before hanging up the phone.
Min Jian was sitting across Min Yu with a cigarette between his fingers. The moment he heard his nephew’s tone, he could not help trembling in disgust. He seriously suspected that his nephew was two-faced.
Min Yu raised his brow and glanced at Director Min coldly. He picked up the cup of tea beside him and took a sip. His phone chimed when a text message notification came in. Huo Yao had just sent him a.s.sistant w.a.n.g’s phone number.
He glanced at the time and gave Zhuo Yun a call informing him to collect the stuff now.
After giving his orders, he raised his head to look at Director Min and said nonchalantly, “Uncle Jian, what were you saying about helping you?”
