"It's me, who are you?" Rocco narrowed his eyes slightly. This voice seemed familiar. Seeing the response, the other party immediately became excited, "Brother Rocco, I am Elody!" "Oh, what's wrong?" Rocco asked calmly. Before parting, they exchanged contact information, but they had only been apart for less than half an hour. What could she want from him? Elody said quickly, "In the hospital before, didn't you say that you wanted to give my dad a prescription to regulate his body? I'm just asking..." Rocco suddenly realized that he had indeed said this before. There were too many things going on today and he had forgotten about it. "I'll write it tonight. Come to my house tomorrow to pick it up. I'll send you the address." Rocco said. "Okay, brother Rocco, see you tomorrow!" After the silvery laughter, Elody hung up the phone. When he got home, night had fallen. The messy courtyard had been cleaned up, and the blood stains on the ground had been washed away with water. At this moment, Rocco's father and mother were sitting in the courtyard picking vegetables. Under the light, Rocco's nose felt sore when he saw the rickety figures of the two elders. "Mom and Dad, I'm back." Rocco suppressed the sadness in his heart and stepped forward quickly. "Son!" Cove in the wheelchair asked quickly, "the Valois family didn't do anything to you, right?" In the morning, Rocco said that he was going to ask for an explanation, but she felt fear in her heart. the Valois family was not easy to mess with. Although her son was good at fists and kicks, the Valois family was numerous and powerful... Now that she saw her son returned intact, Cove's heart dropped. "Don't worry, I've already dealt with it, and this matter is over." Rocco was vague, not wanting to go into too much detail so as not to scare his parents. "That's right!" Draven patted Rocco's shoulder hard and encouraged, "A man must be able to take things up and put them down. There are plenty of good girls, so there is no need focusing on the only one!" Rocco smiled and asked, "Mom and Dad, didn't I tell you that the yard will be cleaned up when I come back. You all have injuries..." "We couldn't move, it was aunt Darlene and Nala who helped." Cove quickly explained, "Rocco, your dad and I have been taken care of by the neighbors in the past two years. Now that you are out, you have to repay them! " Draven also nodded in agreement. "Well, I know it well." Rocco smiled. After chatting with his parents for a while, Rocco started preparing dinner. Although he hadn't cooked for a long time, fortunately he hadn't lost his skills. Although the four dishes and one soup were not rich, they were still delicious. During the meal, Cove asked about the master. Rocco picked up some less important information and told it to the two elders. He deliberately concealed some confidential information, such as the Dragon King Palace, which he did not want to disclose to the outside world. After nightfall, Rocco helped his parents sleep before returning to his room. Recalling Hawk's condition, he quickly drew up a prescription. Rocco could see Hawk's habit of practicing martial arts, but there was something wrong with the method, so that the blood flowed back to the heart, and that's why he was injured. After that, he prescribed another supplement. This time, his parents' vitality was severely damaged by the turmoil, so they had to take supplements. He'll go get some medicine with Elody tomorrow. "Hoo!" After finishing his work, Rocco took a long breath and looked at the bright moonlight outside the window, secretly lost in thought. Two years later, finally... The next morning, just after breakfast, there was a sound of parking outside the door, and soon, a lively and beautiful girl walked into the yard. "Girl, who are you looking for?" asked parents of Rocco who were chatting in the courtyard. "Uncle and aunt, I am Rocco Flanders's friend." Elody smiled sweetly. Draven and Cove were both stunned. This girl had a good image and a good temperament. She was born from a wealthy family. How come they had never heard her son mention it? Elody carried the gift forward and said, "These shark fins are my tribute to you. To show respect!" "Child, just being here is enough. Why are you bringing a gift? No, no, it's too expensive!" Draven quickly shied away. These boxes of shark fins cost at least tens of thousands of dollars, and he didn't want to owe the other party any favors. Little did Draven know that it was actually the Capet family that owed his son a huge favor, and a mere shark fin was nothing. "Girl, how old are you, what do you do, who else is there in your family..." Cove asked a series of questions, as if they were on a blind date... "Ah? I, I..." Elody blushed and felt embarrassed. I'm just here to pick up a prescription, why do I feel like I'm meeting me man's parents? It would be better if I really came to meet his parents... "Mom, what are you doing?" Rocco, who heard the noise, walked out of the room and frowned at everyone. "Brother Rocco!" Elody shouted as if she had been granted amnesty. "Son, please invite your friend to sit in the house." Cove was a little anxious. She hoped that her son would get a girlfriend quickly and forget about Marlowe, that white-eyed wolf. Rocco waved his hand, "I'm going out to run some errands and I won't be back at noon." "Uncle and aunt, goodbye!" Elody put down the gift and quickly followed. "What's the hurry? Treat your friend some tea!" "Girl, come sometime again!" Draven and Cove stretched their necks and shouted. On the street, many people gathered around a red BMW to savor it. "Oh, this car is so beautiful!" "Of course, it worths millions!" "Why is it here? There are guests the Flanders family?" "No way, they are so poor, how can they know such a rich man?" As soon as they finished speaking, Rocco and Elody got into the car one after another. Rumbling, the car roared and sped away. "Holy crap, does that woman know Rocco Flanders?" "Just after he was released from prison, he fell in love with the daughter of a rich family. That's awesome!" "Tch, a useless piece of trash. He has no future!" Everyone's words made Rocco sounds extremely miserable. These rumors quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys. Rocco was ignorant and would eat the food of women. That woman was not a good thing. Most of them were sold. Otherwise, how could she have so much money at such a young age? In the BMW, the two people looked at each other in silence. "Let's..." Rocco and Elody said at the same time. "You say first!" The two spoke again. "I..." The two of them were in perfect sync. Rocco smiled and waved the prescription, "Go to Peace Hall. Medicine for your dad and my parents. Let's get them together." "Okay!" Elody stepped on the accelerator and the engine roared. After a while, the car slowly stopped. In front of them was a magnificent medicine store. On the plaque were two gilded characters, Peace Hall! This shop was well-known in Ocean State and had survived for more than ten years. The medicinal materials it sold were of the highest quality and their curative effects were unparalleled. Many dignitaries came here to buy medicine. "Sir, what would you like to order?" As soon as they entered the door, the waitress asked Rocco respectfully. "Ten patches for each of these three prescriptions." Rocco handed the prescriptions to the waiter. "Sir, the prescription needs to be confirmed by our pharmacist before you can fill it." The waiter said. Rocco nodded; this move was also responsible for the patient. "Mr. Flanders, what is this?" Elody asked, pointing to a medicinal plant in the glass cabinet. "Salvia." "What about that?" She asked again. "Poria." Elody was like a brand-new soul entering a brand-new world, asking questions about here and there. Everything felt new to her. Thump, thump, thump! At this time, rapid footsteps sounded, and a doctor in a white coat ran over, followed by the waiter just now. "Who wrote this prescription?" The doctor asked with a livid face while holding Hawk's prescription. "I did, what's wrong?" Rocco said calmly. The doctor snorted coldly, "I think you are taking human life lightly!" He turned around and ordered the waiter, "Call the police immediately and say that someone is deliberately poisoning!"
