1746 Huo Yao Was Genuinely Mean!
“When did this happen?” asked Huo Yulin anxiously. He did not hear anything about this at all.
“Just a couple of days ago.” Huo Changfeng spoke sternly.
So many things had happened in the past few days that he had no time to rest. His face clearly looked exhausted.
A murderous aura radiated from Huo Yulin’s eyes. “Who’s the culprit?”
“An assassin organization.”
Huo Yulin frowned. “The assassin organizations have always drawn a line with the family. How could they dare to do this?”
“They were hired by someone to do it. We managed to catch an assassin, but he took poison and committed suicide without giving us any answers.” Huo Changfeng pressed his throbbing temple with his fingers. “It doesn’t look as simple as it seems. I’m still investigating the matter.”
They had touched the Huo family, so it naturally was not as simple as it looked.
Huo Yulin narrowed his eyes and promptly made a decision. “I’m going to Country M tonight.”
Something had happened to his eldest uncle. The elders would never give up the perfect opportunity to cause internal rife.
“What about the National Academy of Medicine?”
Huo Yulin thought about the files he had seen today in the higher archive room and said, “I will make an excuse to leave.”
Huo Changfeng pondered briefly. They desperately needed someone to control the situation at home, so it was probably good if Young Master Yulin could come back.
He did not try to talk Huo Yulin out of it. “Okay then. I will make arrangements and send someone to pick you up at the airport.”
“Uh huh,” acknowledged Huo Yulin softly. He paused and said, “Oh yes, Uncle Changfeng. As for Yaoyao…”
Huo Changfeng read his mind. “Don’t worry. I have already sent a security detail to protect Miss Huo.”
Huo Yulin finally felt less worried after hearing this.
Before long, the two of them ended their conversation.
Huo Yulin wasted no time and went upstairs to pack his luggage.
**
The next day in Country M.
Huo Yulin’s assistant had already bought the revision material and sent it to the hospital with great efficiency.
After Shangguan Yun happily opened the boxes and saw three boxes worth of revision material, he was stunned.
“Why’s there so much revision material?” Zhuo Yun was in the hospital ward with Shangguan Yun at the time. He was equally shocked by the college entrance exam revision material in the boxes.
Shangguan Yun’s face twitched. He inexplicably thought about Huo Yao’s question regarding school earlier today.
He had felt puzzled when she asked that out of context. From the looks of it, she had already planned this in her mind!
Shangguan Yun lost all hope. Huo Yao was genuinely mean!
“Brother Yun, on account of the similarity in our names, can you help me with something?” Shangguan Yun inhaled deeply and looked at Zhuo Yun desperately.
The moment Zhuo Yun heard what he said, he knew it was going to be nothing good. “Huh?”
“I want to go back home.”
He did not want to stay here for even a minute longer if he could help it.
Zhuo Yun’s lips twitched. He hurriedly shook his head. “I don’t think I can do it. It’s kind of hard for me.” He paused and added. “Why don’t you ask the boss?”
The moment he mentioned Min Yu, Shangguan Yun could not help complaining. “As a man, he doesn’t have any say at all! Don’t you think it’s embarrassing?”
Zhuo Yun cleared his throat looking at the door without saying a word.
“Sister is such a mean person. Other than her pretty face, there’s nothing good about her…”, sneered Shangguan Yun. When he noticed Zhuo Yun’s squinting at him, he asked quizzically. “Brother Yun, what’s wrong?”
Zhuo Yun went speechless.
Never mind. Shangguan Yun could not say he did not try.
He certainly hoped that Boss and Miss Huo wouldn’t pummel the boy to death in a minute.
Zhuo Yun promptly straightened his back and nodded at the door. After a pause, he said reverently, “Boss, Miss Huo.”
