Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

School?

No time?

Did he hallucinate?

Was Miss Big Shot not an elderly person?

Perhaps due to Huo Yao and Huo Yanxi’s conflict earlier in the morning, Huo Yanxi changed his plans about living at home for now and left without staying even for a single day.

Huo Yanxi looked at Huo Yao somewhat disappointedly before he left.

But Huo Yao was unaffected and continued studying.
Song Ning could not help feeling annoyed with her son’s actions when she saw how quiet and diligent Huo Yao was.

Song Ning ordered her son not to come back for the time being, out of the fear that Huo Yanxi and Huo Yao’s relationship would become even tenser.
She did not want it to affect the atmosphere at home.

In the afternoon, Song Ning suffered from a bout of headache, and planned on heading to a traditional Chinese medicine club, which she frequented to get a massage.
But Huo Yao stopped her and said, “Mom, let me give you a massage.”

Song Ning waved her away as she rubbed her temples and said, “It’s okay.
Go on and study.
I’ll get an experienced traditional Chinese medicine physician to give me a massage and apply some acupuncture.”

Huo Yao frowned when she heard this.
Then she said gravely, “You can’t treat your headache randomly.
If the physician doesn’t get the acupuncture point right, it will only make your headache worse.”

Song Ning was surprised.
Then she smiled and said, “It’ll be fine.
This physician has been giving me massages for years, and he’s pretty good, so don’t worry.”

Huo Yao went quiet.
Then she said, “Why don’t you let me try? If the headache persists, you can go to your usual physician later.”

Song Ning thought her daughter was just trying to be filial, so she didn’t turn her down.
She went ahead and sat down in the armchair nearby.

At worst, Song Ning would claim that it had stopped hurting and sneak off to visit the physician later when Huo Yao was not looking.
