Min Yu nodded.
Chairman Wang pondered briefly and took Huo Yao’s pulse again. After some time, he finally pulled his hand back.
“To be honest, I have never seen such body temperature in my life. The medicine I checked can bring the dead back to life, but I’m not sure if that medicine is suitable considering her condition. I’m not sure if it will work,” answered Chairman Wang solemnly.
If it was some other condition, he probably would have had the answer, but not this time. This time, he was quite unsure.
Chairman Wang paused before he continued. “Let me go back to the association to check some medical texts and see if there is some other way to sort her condition out.”
“We have no other choice then.” Min Yu nodded and spoke solemnly. “I’m waiting for your call.”
Chairman Wang smiled sadly as he waved his hand before leaving the hospital ward.
Min Yu veered his eyes and continued looking at the young woman lying on the bed.
The young woman was breathing evenly and looked like a sleeping beauty.

Chairman Wang’s assistant was waiting in the lobby. When the assistant saw his boss, he put away his phone and went towards him.
“Are you done already?” asked Assistant Wang in surprise.
He knew the chairman was here to examine a patient but he did not know it was Huo Yao.
Chairman Wang nodded. He walked off quickly with his hands behind him. “Let’s go back to the association.”
Assistant Wang quickly followed behind the chairman. As he walked, he said, “Oh yes. Mr. Mi is back.”

Chairman Wang instantly halted in his steps and raised his head to look at Assistant Wang. “Didn’t you tell him to stay away from the association for the time being?”
“I have been trying to contact him, but I could not get him on the phone. I also tried sending him a text message but he did not reply to me,” explained Assistant Wang.
Chairman Wang pressed his brow and looked exhausted. “Where is he?”
“He said he’ll get to the Apothecaries’ Association in a minute,” replied Assistant Wang.
Chairman Wang narrowed his eyes thinking about what Deputy Chairman Qin wanted to do. He said, “Call him now and tell him to meet us at the teahouse near the association.”
“Got it.” Assistant Wang nodded as he took out his phone and made a call.
After hanging up the phone, Assistant Wang looked at Chairman Wang and said, “It’s done.”
Chairman Wang acknowledged softly.
20 minutes later, they arrived at the teahouse.
When they asked the tea house waitress, she informed him there was no guest called Mi Wei at the tea house.
Assistant Wang felt puzzled. He took out his phone as he said, “Mr. Mi should have probably gotten here ahead of us. Let me call and check.”
Chairman Wang nodded.
Assistant Wang removed the phone from his ear and hung up the call. “I couldn’t get through.”
Chairman Wang frowned. “Did he say he was already near the association when you called previously?”
“That’s right. I told him to meet us at the teahouse and especially told him not to go to the association.” He naturally knew why Chairman Wang wanted to meet Mr. Mi alone outside the association.
He did not want Deputy Chairman Qin to find out that Mi Wei was back.
Assistant Wang paused briefly before he looked outside the teahouse and said, “Since we can’t reach him, I wonder if he got held up on his way here. Should we keep waiting?”
Chairman Wang narrowed his eyes as he thought about Huo Yao’s condition. She could not afford to wait, so he replied. “You will wait for him here. When he gets here, send him out of the capital. I have to go back to the association now.”
The assistant glanced at Chairman Wang before he nodded.
