Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss Chapter 1164 - A Warning

Chapter 1164: A Warning
Zhu finally noticed the problem. He suddenly reached his hand out and pulled out a fine silver needle from the seat backrest of Song Qi’s chair.
Song Qi opened her eyes wide the moment she saw the needle. “Where did that come from?”
Zhu pointed at Song Qi’s seat backrest. He had found it on the seat backrest near Song Qi’s neck.
Judging from the angle and injury on Song Qi’s neck, he was certain that she was injured by this needle.
Song Qi covered her neck with one hand. She looked a little pale. “I have been sitting there the entire time. How did a needle suddenly appear here?”
Zhu held the needle and scrutinized it for some time. He raised his head and glanced at Huo Yao’s seat. A bold notion emerged in his head, but he suppressed the shock in his heart. He replied softly. “It might have been Miss Huo or the bodyguard standing behind her.”
Zhu did not know whether anyone could attack using needles so imperceptibly, but it did not mean it was impossible.
Zhu paused and continued. “I am inclined to think that Miss Huo’s bodyguard did it. He probably wanted to give you a warning.”
A cold look swept across Song Qi’s eyes the moment she heard Zhu’s analysis. “A warning? She is such a fool. Who does she think she is? Can you afford to offend the Song and Ji families?”
Even if the bodyguard looked scary, he was just a bodyguard. What could a single man do to powerful families like theirs even if he did not like it?
Zhu lowered his eyes. He thought about the 180 degree change in the manager’s attitude earlier and felt a little worried. He simply suggested. “Whatever it is, you should avoid getting into arguments with Miss Ning and her daughter. After all, you need Miss Huo to treat Old Master Song.”
Song Qi glanced at Zhu when she noticed his worry. She could not help frowning. “Zhu, what are you doing? Why are you so scared suddenly? Whose side are you on?”
Zhu raised his head and looked at Song Qi. “I am not scared. I just think it would be wiser to be cautious. I have a feeling Miss Ning’s family is…”
Song Qi did not want to continue listening to Zhu since he was being so negative. She interrupted him. “Enough already. Just shut up. Send me to the hospital.”
The pain in her neck was starting to aggravate.
Zhu swallowed his words and nodded in acknowledgment.

Meanwhile, at the restaurant downstairs.
Song Zhi went chasing after Huo Yao and Song Ning until they were at the entrance. Just as he was about to catch up to them, two of Chen Ming’s subordinates stopped him.
Song Zhi reached his hands out and wanted to push them aside but to no avail. He ignored the passers-by and shouted at Song Ning from behind. “Ning, can I speak to you alone? Just a few minutes of your time.”
The chauffeur had already brought the car over to the restaurant entrance. Huo Yao could hear Song Zhi’s voice from behind. She opened the car door without pausing for a second and looked at Song Ning.
Song Ning caught the look in Huo Yao’s eyes and automatically straightened her back instantly and replied. “I am not going.”
The moment Song Ning finished her sentence, she got into the car.
Huo Yao raised her brow. She bent over and got into the car as well.
Song Zhi shouted a few more times, but the door was closed, so they could not hear him any longer.
Before long, the car left the restaurant. When the car drove off, Chen Ming’s subordinates finally let him go.
Song Zhi stood where he was, cursing furiously.
