Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

Chapter 1118 Let Huo Tingrui Leave In Peace

“Where did the smell come from?” Min Yu went quiet briefly before asking another question.

Huo Yao glanced sideways out of the car window. She narrowed her eyes slightly before veering her eyes and replied mildly. “I’m fine. Can we change the subject? It is not a big deal anyway.” Min Yu glanced at her. Since she was not keen on talking about it, he did not continue probing. He simply started the engine.

After Min Yu’s car had left, Yuan Xi followed behind Yuan Huan to his car. Yuan Huan looked at the unusual and familiar license plate number intriguingly. For once, he automatically opened the back seat door for Yuan Xi.

Yuan Xi watched as Yuan Huan opened the door. She did not feel pampered at all. Instead, she became terrified and kept standing where she was without getting into the car.

Yuan Huan leaned against the car door lazily. He was unusually patient today and did not keep bugging her to hurry up.

After Yuan Xi finally got into the car, she reached her hands out to stop the door just when the door was closing. She looked at Yuan Huan standing outside. “What do you want? Just come clean with me.”

Yuan Huan tilted his head sideways. He smiled wickedly and looked at her thoughtfully. “What kind of person do you think I am?”

Yuan Xi bit her lip. She suppressed the fear in her heart and said solemnly, “You know full well what you are like.”

Yuan Huan laughed softly. “From the looks of it, you have deeply misunderstood me.”

Yuan Xi could sense her goose pimples rising. She quickly closed the car door so that she did not have to make eye contact with her brother.

Yuan Huan glanced at the black car’s windows calmly before slowly straightening his sleeves and walking up to the front passenger seat. Just as he was about to open the car door, his phone rang in his pocket. His hands froze briefly before retrieving his phone.

It was a long-distance call.

Yuan Huan narrowed his eyes and turned around to face the car before answering the phone. After chatting briefly, Yuan Huan hung up the phone. The calm expression on his face was no longer present. Instead, there was a serious look on his face.

Did someone want to infiltrate the base?

They must be insane to even think of doing it.

Yuan Huan frowned. He quietly stood where he was for a few seconds before he turned back towards the car. He opened the car door, got in, and told the chauffeur to go.

Yuan Huan’s voice sounded slightly cold, making the atmosphere in the car serious.

The chauffeur did not dare to speak and simply started the car.

Yuan Xi automatically cringed when she heard Yuan Huan slamming the door hard. However, she kept her head lowered, staring at her hands without looking up at all.

She seemed completely accustomed to Yuan Huan’s temperamental nature.

In the car.

“Brother Tingrui is going back to City S tomorrow,” explained Huo Yao. Min Yu raised his brow. His voice promptly sounded surprised and happy. “Is he going back already?” Huo Yao leaned against her chin and blinked. “Are you that happy?”

“That is not true.” After all, there was now one less person vying for Huo Yao’s attention. Min Yu leaned into the seat lazily with his hands on the steering wheel as he asked. “What time is he leaving tomorrow?”

Huo Yao’s lips twitched. “At 12:00 pm.”

Min Yu nodded. “Shall I give Brother Tingrui a lift?”

Huo Yao glanced at Min Yu. “Forget it. Why don’t we just let him leave in peace?”

Min Yu went quiet.

Huo Tingrui’s status still remained low.

He sighed pitifully inside.

Huo Yao cleared her throat. She turned to look out of the car window and raised her brow. There was a faint smile on her beautiful face.

Before long, the car arrived at the estate. Huo Yao waved to Min Yu and opened the car door to get off.
