Min Yu disregarded the look in his father’s eyes. He turned and walked up to the window to answer the phone.
Prof Min looked at his son from behind and nearly wanted to vomit blood in anger.
His son had previously demanded that he give Huo Yao a gift. This time, he asked for consultation fees. His son had never cared about money so much.
After answering the call from Pei Rong, he hung up the phone shortly and stood where he was briefly. After a few moments, he turned around and looked at his father. “Dad, I have to go.”
Prof Min had heard him talking on the phone, so he asked. “Is Old Mr. Pei sick?”
!!
Min Yu nodded. “Uh huh. I’m going to visit him later.”
Prof Min and Old Mr. Pei were relatively close, so he said, “Please send my regards.”
“Okay.” Min Yu put away his phone and left the hospital ward.
He took a lift and went downstairs. After getting into the car, he called Zhuo Yun and told him to prepare some gifts before driving over to Tsing University.

When he reached Tsing University, Huo Yao was just about done with her laboratory work.
“How’s your father doing? Is he recovering well?” asked Huo Yao as she put on her seatbelt.
Min Yu promptly recalled the sight of his father running in and out of the bathroom. “Not bad. He seems lively.”
Huo Yao nodded and said, “Great.”
“Uh huh,” acknowledged Min Yu gently. He started the engine and said, “Old Mr. Pei isn’t feeling well. I’m going to visit him after sending you home.”
Huo Yao raised her head and looked at him. She asked him in surprise. “Is Old Mr. Pei sick? Is it serious? I met him just a few days ago and he seemed to be in great shape.”
Everyone seemed to be falling ill. First, it was Chairman w.a.n.g. Now, Old Mr. Pei was sick as well.
“I’m not sure either. It might not be as serious.” When Min Yu received the call, Pei Rong did not sound worried to him.
Huo Yao tapped her knee gently with her fingers and said, “Fine. I won’t go then. Call me if it’s really bad.”
Even though she did not like Old Mr. Pei’s sons, she felt that Old Mr. Pei had an upright personality.
Pei Rong wanted to obtain her ancient prescriptions using his father, but Old Mr. Pei had told her the truth. Not many would have done the same under the circ.u.mstances.
She naturally held him in high respect for his integrity.
“Okay,” acknowledged Min Yu without going on with the subject.
Before long, they arrived at the estate. He dropped Huo Yao off at her villa and headed to the Pei residence.

Zhuo Yun was waiting for Min Yu outside the Pei residence holding some gifts. When his boss came over, Zhuo Yun went toward the roadside and waited for Min Yu to pull up. The moment Min Yu got out of the car, he walked over and greeted him. “Hi.”
Min Yu nodded.
Zhuo Yun wasted no time and pressed the villa doorbell.
Pei Rong was already waiting for their arrival inside the villa. The moment he heard the doorbell, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the incense burner sitting on the corner table in the living room. It had already been lit and incense was wafting in the air.
He did not tell the maid to answer the door. Instead, he strode over and opened the door personally.
“Young Master Min, welcome.” Pei Rong greeted Min Yu and Zhuo Yun reverently.
Min Yu nodded and entered the villa. He asked immediately. “How’s Old Mr. Pei?”
“It’s just a cold. He’s a lot better now after taking some meds. When he heard you were coming to visit, he seemed a lot more energetic,” replied Pei Rong.
He invited them into the living room.
The incense was burning gently in the living room and was not overpowering.
Zhuo Yun was following behind Min Yu. After entering the residence, he handed the gifts to the maid. He glanced into the living room as he entered. Even though he could smell the incense, he did not take it to heart.
