The incense in the burner was already finished, and only white ash remained, but the faint scent of agarwood was still lingering in the air.

Pei Rong poured the ash from the burner into the trash can. After clearing everything, he replaced the burner back to where it belonged.

He raised his head and looked around. After a moment, he walked over to the windows in the living room and opened them to let in some fresh air.

Although Deputy Chairman Qin had mentioned it was like ordinary incense and had zero effect on healthy folks, Pei Rong knew that it was nothing good.

After he was done clearing up, Pei Rong went back to sit down on the couch.

Old Mr. Pei failed to notice anything amiss with his son. After some time, he said voluntarily, Did you finally get it?

Pei Rong pursed his lips as he took some tissue to wipe his hands. Now that the deed was done, Huo Yao would have to hand over her ancient prescriptions, so he did not want to get into another fight with his father.

He simply replied patronizingly. Uh huh. Youre right. After all, we cant afford to offend the Min family.

Old Mr. Pei could tell that Pei Rong had not given up yet. He sighed deeply and said, This is wrong. People like Qin Zheng are bad news. Just take it from me and get away from him while you still can.

Pei Rong raised his hand and rubbed his brow. He did not want to listen to his father speak ill of Deputy Chairman Qin. He stood up and said, Have an early night. I still have some work to do.

Pei Rong went back to the living room. He paused briefly and turned back to look at Old Mr. Pei. Oh yes. Dad, since youve already finished treating your patient at First Peoples Hospital, I suppose youre done here. Ill help you book tickets so that you can fly home in a couple of days, okay?

Old Mr. Pei frowned. Before he was able to speak, Pei Rong said, Ill take care of your air tickets then.

Pei Rong sounded firm. The moment he finished his sentence, he left the living room without waiting for his father to respond.

Before he went upstairs, he told the maid to clear the trash cans ofn the residence.

Zhuo Yun answered a call in the car. After hanging up, he looked up into the rearview mirror. His subordinate had driven away his car, so he was driving Min Yus car now. I just got a call from the Ministry of National Security. Yuan Huan was released on bail.

Min Yu was resting his eyes, but he slowly opened them upon hearing this. What do you mean? Who bailed him out?

I hear it was someone from the Apothecaries a.s.sociation. Zhuo Yun lowered the music inside the car. Qin Zheng to be precise.

Min Yu rapped his fingers on his knee. Is it the same person Old Mr. Pei mentioned over dinner?

Uh huh. Zhuo Yun nodded. Shall I put a tail on him?

After all, Huo Yao had thrown the guy behind bars. If Yuan Huan wanted to dig deeper, it was just a matter of time before he found out about her involvement in the matter.

Min Yu narrowed his eyes. He also knew about the break-in of the National Academy of Medicine and Yuan Huan was the prime suspect now, so he was really surprised that Yuan Huan could get released on bail. Someone important must have intervened and helped make this happen. He asked. When did this happen?

Just today. I dont know exactly what time, but I can ask. Zhuo Yun paused before pulling out his phone. Let me call and find out.

Okay, acknowledged Min Yu.

Before long, Zhuo Yun hung up the phone. The paperwork was completed at 1:30 pm today. Almost six hours have pa.s.sed, so itll be hard to find him.

Min Yu narrowed his eyes. I dont care. Find him.

Uh huh. Zhuo Yun knew about his bosss concerns. He was worried about Huo Yao.
