Huo Yao was still trying to figure out what He Shu meant when he said that his master was not around. She paused for two seconds before she stood up and nodded. "Sure."
He Shu heaved a sigh of relief.
He did not know what kind of person Huo Yao was. When he read Vice President Qin's contract, he was worried that Vice President Qin would bribe Huo Yao.
He Shu did not even look at Vice President Qin. He pointed at the door and gestured for Huo Yao to leave. "Let's go."
Vice President Qin's face darkened. "He Shu, don't be so presumptuous!"
Was He Shu looking down on him by snatching Huo Yao away in front of him?
He Shu pretended not to hear him or sense Vice President Qin's extreme displeasure. His eyes landed on Huo Yao as he gestured for her to leave.
Huo Yao casually put her hands in her jacket pockets. She was about to take a step forward when she paused. Then she turned around and looked at Vice President Qin calmly. "I don't even care about the position of President, let alone an official Vice President."
After saying that, she retracted her hand and walked out of the room.
He Shu was stunned, but he quickly caught up with Huo Yao.
Vice President Qin watched them disappear at the door expressionlessly before he closed his eyes. The next second, he swept the teacup on the table to the ground.
The sound of the teacup shattering revealed his terrible mood.
He had never seen such an insensible person.
Outside the office, Pei Rong happened to bump into Huo Yao and He Shu when he came to look for Vice President Qin. He looked at Huo Yao with a complicated expression on his face.
He had witnessed everything that had happened during the Association's assessment. He did not expect her to be an expert at refining medicine.
Back when she was treating Fang Chen at the Pei residence, he merely thought that she had some medical skills. Moreover, she seemed rather arrogant at the time, so he did not have a good impression of her.
Later on, when his little brother mentioned that she might be an amazing medicine refiner, he did not take it to heart. After all, he did not think that someone so young could be that good.
It turned out that not only was she amazing, but she also had a good relationship with the President... Pei Rong felt rather upset at the thought of it.
If he had known about her strength and intended to befriend her, he might have been able to build a good relationship with Elder Wang over the past two years.
It was a pity that no one in this world knew about this earlier.
Pei Rong sighed inwardly. Fortunately, Old Mr. Wang would no longer be the President. If he was really close to Old Mr. Wang, Vice President Qin might not even be able to stay in the association.
At this thought, Pei Rong's last bit of uneasiness disappeared. He composed himself and nodded politely at He Shu without greeting Huo Yao. Then he quickly entered Vice President Qin's office.
He Shu was not close to Pei Rong, so he did not dislike him. However, he pursed his lips when he saw Pei Rong enter Vice-President Qin's office.
It seemed that he was another person who had been recruited by Vice President Qin without any principles.

After Pei Rong entered the office, he saw the broken teacup on the floor. He was startled and glanced at Vice President Qin cautiously.
He recalled bumping into He Shu and Huo Yao at the entrance. Did they part on bad terms?
Pei Rong realized that he might not have come at the right time, but it would not be appropriate for him to leave now. He could only ask softly. "Vice President Qin, are you alright?"
