Chapter 1403: No Regret

Pei Rong pursed his lips and replied without hesitation. “No way.”
He had already gone against the Min family, so it was impossible for him to back out halfway. It was all too late now.
From the moment he had taken the incense from Deputy Chairman Qin, he was on the path to no return.
If he backed out now, Deputy Chairman Qin would not take it well.
Pei Rong composed himself. He did not want to continue talking to his father or listen to his accusations.!!
He stood up and said candidly, “I don’t want to argue with you. Don’t you get it? It’s useless now. If Min Yu wants the meds, Huo Yao has to give her prescriptions to Deputy Chairman Qin in exchange for them.”
Pei Rong stated in a cool tone.
Old Mr. Pei parted his lips. He knew there was no talking Pei Rong out of this, so he decided to stop responding and closed his eyes.
He paused briefly before something dawned on him. He called out to Pei Rong. “I have one last question for you. Were you behind Young Master Min’s relapse?”
Pei Rong clenched his fists slightly before he turned to look at Old Mr. Pei calmly. It was impossible to tell what Pei Rong was genuinely thinking. “No, I wasn’t. Why would I do that? He just happened to be sick and Deputy Chairman Qin just happened to be presented with the opportunity to exchange the meds for Huo Yao’s prescriptions.”
Old Mr. Pei looked at the calm look on Pei Rong’s face and did not know whether he should trust Pei Rong and continue lying to himself. He said sadly, “I certainly hope you won’t regret doing this.”
“Never.” Pei Rong clenched his fists with a ruthless look on his face.
The moment he finished his sentence, he strode out of the living room.
Old Mr. Pei leaned into the couch backrest powerlessly. Even though his chest did not feel good, it could not compare to his disappointment he felt about his son.
If he did not come to the capital, perhaps Pei Rong would never have done this.

After thinking about the matter all night, Old Mr. Pei sent a text message to Huo Yao the next morning.
He knew Huo Yao was still in class, so he simply invited her to meet at a restaurant near the campus at lunch.
Huo Yao assumed that Old Mr. Pei wanted to talk about Min Yu’s illness. When it was 11:30 in the morning, she went over to meet him.
Old Mr. Pei had gotten a private room. After the waiter was gone, Huo Yao noticed that he seemed pale, so she asked. “Are you okay? Shall I take your pulse?”
Old Mr. Pei smiled and waved his hand. “I’m fine. I was just unable to sleep last night.”
Huo Yao studied his face and pondered before she said, “You shouldn’t keep worrying yourself over his condition.”
The moment she brought up Min Yu’s condition, a sad look emerged on Old Mr. Pei’s face. He got straight to the point of asking to see Huo Yao today. “I heard something and it might help with Young Master Min’s condition.”
Huo Yao was holding her teacup, but her hand froze as she looked at Old Mr. Pei quizzically. She waited for him to go on.
“Deputy Chairman Qin from the Apothecaries’ Association has some medicine which might help with Young Master Min’s condition.” Old Mr. Pei paused briefly before he told her about the medication from the Shangguan clan which Qin Zheng possessed.
Huo Yao looked puzzled after hearing this. She was tapping her fingers on the table, but she stopped and asked. “Old Mr Pei, do you mean Deputy Chairman Qin knows someone from the Shangguan clan?”
He thought about the look on Pei Rong’s face when his son told him about it yesterday. He nodded and replied. “Probably.”
Huo Yao instantly smiled. Shangguan Yu had never shown her face in the capital, but imposters kept pretending to be her.
It was starting to get intriguing.
