Chapter 1171: How Did You Know It Was From The Apothecaries’ a.s.sociation?
There were still three hours to go before it was 7:00 pm.
Huo Yao drove around the estate before pulling up in front of Min Yu’s villa.
She opened the door deftly and entered the villa.
“Miss Huo, are you finally here?” Zhuo Yun put down his things and went over to welcome her enthusiastically.
“Uh huh.” Huo Yao nodded and acknowledged him. She changed into the slippers and entered the living room.
“The boss is in the bas.e.m.e.nt. Why don’t you take a seat first?” Zhuo Yun went to pour Huo Yao a gla.s.s of water. The doorbell rang right then, so he went to answer the door.
Before long, Zhuo Yun came back holding two exquisite bags and placed them on the coffee table in front of Huo Yao. “The boss ordered you some tea.”
Huo Yao raised her brow.
Zhuo Yun came over carrying a box. “Oh yes. Miss Huo, can you help me look at these?”
Huo Yao glanced at the contents of the box. There were a few porcelain bottles of different shapes and sizes with a familiar logo on them. She randomly picked one of the bottles up. “Is this from the Apothecaries’ a.s.sociation?”
Zhuo Yun nodded. He was astonished. “Miss Huo, how did you know?”
Huo Yao acknowledged Zhuo Yun gently. She opened one of the bottles and smelled its contents before putting it down. She looked at the rest of the bottles and looked at Zhuo Yun. “These medications are all intended for external injuries. Did someone get hurt?”
“Nope. We just order the medication in bulk. Can you tell me which one works the fastest for external injuries?” asked Zhuo Yun.
He intended to get the medication tested using the military facility. When he suddenly recalled that he knew a medical expert and realized tests were redundant, he sent Huo Yao a text message asking her if she could come over.
Huo Yao did not continue probing and nodded. There were dozens of bottles of external injury medication in the box. She took them out and scrutinized them before picking three bottles. “These are the best.”
Zhuo Yun took the medication and set them aside. He beamed brightly at Huo Yao and thanked her.
She was such a professional. It might have taken probably ten days for him to get the medication tested, but she helped to settle his problem in a matter of minutes.
Min Yu came up from the bas.e.m.e.nt. He raised his eyes and saw Zhuo Yun smiling with Huo Yao sitting nearby. He narrowed his eyes and walked over unhurriedly.
“Are you here already?” Min Yu took off the white gloves on his hands. He sat down beside Huo Yao and casually rested his arms on the couch’s backrest.
Zhuo Yun greeted his boss. When Min Yu glanced at him mildly, Zhuo Yun caught his drift. He hurriedly got up from the couch and said sheepishly, “I am going down to see Yang Yi.”
The moment he finished his sentence, he took the box and left.
Huo Yao was holding milk tea in her hands. She looked sideways at Zhuo Yun when he left. She veered her eyes and said to Min Yu, “Aren’t you scary?”
“Scary?” Min Yu raised his brow. He pulled some stray hair from behind and twirled it a few times. “Are you free tonight?”
“Huh?” Huo Yao bit on the straw and replied in a stifled tone.
Min Yu let go of her hair and straightened himself slightly before he said, “Uncle Jinyan and Aunt Ning are in town. I want to buy them dinner.”
Huo Yao looked at him and said unhurriedly, “Oh. I am busy tonight.”
Min Yu leaned towards her face. “Why aren’t you free?”
Huo Yao cleared her throat. She raised her milk tea and explained. “I have dinner plans.”
“Dinner plans? What kind of dinner plans?” Min Yu disregarded her actions.
