Old Mr. Pei stood up to welcome Min Yu the moment he saw him walk in. He could not hide the joy on his face. "Young Master Min."
"Old Mr. Pei." Min Yu nodded politely. Old Mr. Pei seemed to be in good spirits and did not seem to be sick.
Old Mr. Pei gestured for Min Yu to take a seat before he said, "I was supposed to visit you, but I didn't expect you to come all the way here. Sorry about that."
Old Mr. Pei contemplated something before he instructed Pei Rong to go to the kitchen to check if dinner was ready.
Pei Rong looked normal and did not seem to be affected. He glanced at Min Yu before heading to the dining room.
In the past, he would have taken the opportunity to strike up a conversation with Min Yu. But now... he had heard a lot from Vice President Qin and felt that the Min family was not that great.
Old Mr. Pei only veered his eyes after Pei Rong walked away. He said softly, "Young Master Min, are you feeling any discomfort?"
"I'm fine now. Thank you for worrying about me," said Min Yu politely as he looked at Old Mr. Pei.
Old Mr. Pei nodded. He had been trying to figure out what Pei Rong meant ever since he said those words and felt a little uneasy.
Old Mr. Pei wanted to find another time to meet Min Yu privately, but Pei Rong had been keeping a close eye on him recently. He did not allow him to leave the house and even took away his phone.
He did not expect Min Yu to visit him today.
Old Mr. Pei composed himself and smiled. "You're right. Nothing will happen with Huo Yao around. Oh yes. Have you been in contact with Qin Zheng from the medicine association?"
"Qin Zheng?" Min Yu had never heard of this name before. He shook his head. "I don't know him."
Old Mr. Pei added. "He is the Vice President of the medicine association. You might not have noticed him."
"Maybe." Min Yu looked at Old Mr. Pei and asked casually. "What's wrong with him?"
Old Mr. Pei hesitated before he said, "He seems to have some connections. You..."
"Dad, Young Master Min, dinner is ready. Let's talk while we eat." Pei Rong came back from the dining room and interrupted Old Mr. Pei.
Old Mr. Pei stopped talking and stood up. He did not look at Pei Rong and merely gestured for Min Yu to eat. "Let's eat first."
Min Yu nodded.
Zhuo Yun glanced at Old Mr. Pei. He was thinking about Qin Zheng, whom he had just mentioned.
Although Yu Ge did not know who this person was, he had found out that Qin Yu was the source of the internal turmoil in the Medicine Association when he was investigating President Wang's case. However, he did not ask anyone to investigate Qin Yu's background.
Thinking about it now, those who didn't have any connections wouldn't be able to stir up trouble.
Old Mr. Pei's hesitant expression made it seem like he wanted to remind Huo Yao of something.
At the dining table, Old Mr. Pei stopped talking about the medicine association and chatted with Min Yu about other things.
Everything was normal. It was no different from an ordinary family banquet.
After dinner, Min Yu only stayed for a while before he left.
Old Mr. Pei did not try to persuade him to stay. With Pei Rong around, it would be inappropriate for him to say anything.
Fortunately, Pei Rong's performance tonight was commendable. He did not slip up in front of Min Yu. However, because he looked perfectly normal, Old Mr. Pei felt that something was off.
Hence, after Old Mr. Pei sent Pei Rong off, he returned to the living room and stared at Pei Rong.
Pei Rong did not say anything. He poured himself a glass of water before he walked to the corner of the sofa and picked up the incense burner.
