After Pei Rong got into the car and drove some distance away from the airport, he raised his head to look at the rearview mirror and said, "I heard that Min Yu's condition has relapsed."
Old Mr. Pei was stunned when he heard this. He shook his head and said, "That's impossible."
Pei Rong asked quizzically, "Why are you so sure that it's impossible?"
"I told you that Huo Yao is a great doctor. Moreover, Young Master Min's condition has already recovered," said Old Mr. Pei slowly.
Old Mr. Pei wanted to tell Pei Rong about it previously, but Old Mr. Pei was too impatient and did not mention it in the end.
"What did you say?" Pei Rong slammed on the brakes and the car suddenly slowed down. However, he quickly released the brakes and steadied the car before he asked him. "What do you mean by recovered?"
Old Mr. Pei leaned forward because of the sudden brake. After he steadied himself, he said patiently, "I said that Young Master Min's condition has already been healed by Huo Yao, so it's unlikely for it to relapse."
Pei Rong frowned with a puzzled look on his face.
If Min Yu's condition was really healed, why did Vice Chairman Qin say that his condition had relapsed?
Old Mr. Pei's voice came from the back. "Rong, where did you hear about this?"
Pei Rong gathered his thoughts and came up with the excuse he had prepared beforehand. "I overheard Vice Chairman Qin talking on the phone today. Vice Chairman Qin has a powerful backer, so I was worried that something might have happened. That's why I asked you not to go home."
Old Mr. Pei's face turned solemn when he heard that it was Vice Chairman Qin.
Pei Rong glanced at his father's expression in the rearview mirror. He tapped the steering wheel gently and asked him. "Why didn't the Min family call you when something so serious happened?"
"No." Old Mr. Pei shook his head.
Old Mr. Pei took out his phone from his pocket and checked his contact list before he called Huo Yao.
The call went through quickly. "Hello, Master Huo..."
Pei Rong pursed his lips and did not say a word.
Old Mr. Pei hung up the phone after he finished talking.
"Did something really happen?" asked Pei Rong.
Old Mr. Pei held his phone for a long time without answering Pei Rong. Instead, he said in a deep voice, "Take me somewhere..."

Huo Yao put down her phone and tilted her head thoughtfully to look at Huo Yao, who was busy with his laptop. "How did Old Mr. Pei know about your relapse?"
Min Yu's fingers finally stopped tapping on the keyboard. He contemplated for a moment before he said, "Perhaps he heard the news that Zhuo Yun spread."
Huo Yao nodded and leaned back into the couch lazily. "He said he would come over to take a look."
Min Yu glanced at Huo Yao and pondered over her words. He placed the laptop aside and said, "Do you think Old Mr. Pei is a suspect?"
"Not really." Although Huo Yao did not know Old Mr. Pei well, she could tell what kind of person he was.
He is not so much a suspect as his son.
Huo Yao shrugged. Then she took out a bottle from her pocket and tossed it to Min Yu.
Min Yu caught the bottle and opened it. There was a pill inside.
"Let's go all the way," said Huo Yao nonchalantly.
Although she did not suspect Old Mr. Pei, the people around him were untrustworthy.
