The incense on the burner had burned out long ago, leaving only a pile of white ashes. However, a faint fragrance lingered in the air.
Pei Rong poured the ashes into the trash can and placed the burner back in its original spot.
He raised his head and walked over to open the living room's windows and windows to remove the last bit of fragrance from the air.
Although Vice Chairman Qin said that the incense was ordinary and not harmful to healthy people, Pei Rong could tell that it was nothing good.
After he was done, Pei Rong turned around and sat down on the sofa.
Old Mr. Pei looked at him and did not notice anything amiss. After some time, he broke the silence. "Rong, have you made up your mind?"
Pei Rong pursed his lips and wiped his fingers with a tissue. Since Huo Yao was going to hand over the prescription soon, he did not argue with Old Mr. Pei. Instead, he replied perfunctorily. "Uh huh. Dad, you're right. After all, I can't afford to offend the Min family."
Old Mr. Pei could not help sighing in his heart when he saw that Pei Rong had not given up. "A person who only wants someone else's prescription is not a good person. Listen to me. You should get out of this mess as soon as possible and stop working for Qin Zheng."
Pei Rong raised his hand and pressed his forehead. He did not want to hear his father badmouth Vice Chairman Qin, so he stood up and said, "Dad, rest early. I have something to attend to."
Then he walked out of the living room. Pei Rong recalled something and turned around to look at Old Mr. Pei. "Oh yes, Dad. Since you are almost done with your business at Sea City General Hospital, why don't I book the plane tickets for you tomorrow and the next two days?"
Old Mr. Pei frowned. Before he could say anything, Pei Rong spoke again.
"Then it's settled."
Pei Rong sounded resolute. He walked out of the living room without waiting for his father's reply.
Before he went upstairs, he instructed the housekeeper to clean up all the trash in the house.

In the car.
Zhuo Yun received a call. After he hung up, he raised his eyes to look at the rearview mirror. He had asked his men to drive his car away before he arrived, so he was driving Min Yu's car. "Yu, a colleague from the security bureau called to inform me that Yuanhuan has been bailed out."
Min Yu was resting with his eyes closed when he heard this. He slowly opened his eyes. "Bailed out? Who bailed him out? "
"He said he's from the pharmacy association." Zhuo Yun turned down the music in the car. "Qin Zheng."
Min Yu tapped his knee gently. "Is it the person Old Mr. Pei mentioned last night?"
"Yes." Zhuo Yun nodded. "Should we send someone to follow him in secret?"
After all, Miss Huo was the one who sent the man to the hospital, so it wouldn't be difficult for him to trace it back to Huo Yao.
Min Yu's eyes narrowed slightly. He had a rough idea of what had happened at the medical school. Since the man was able to bail him out, he must have a powerful background. He asked. "When did this happen?"
"It's today. I didn't ask about the specific time." Zhuo Yun paused and took out his phone. "I'll make another call to clarify."
Min Yu acknowledged softly.
Soon, Zhuo Yun hung up the phone. "The handover procedures were done at 1 pm, but it's been six or seven hours since then. I think it'll be very difficult to find them."
Min Yu narrowed his eyes. "Even if we can't find her, we have to."
"Okay." Zhuo Yun naturally understood what his boss meant. It was for Huo Yao's safety.
