The woman’s solemn and pious tone, with a hint of cautiousness in her smile, ward Yin Hu’s heart, leaving him at a loss:
"Ahem... Miss Gu, you’re too kind. Just let know if there’s anything you need..."
Gu Shiyin’s eyes shifted slightly, "Brother Hu, I heard your last vacation was cut short to return to duty. I wonder if you could apply to continue your vacation and accompany to handle sothing?"
"Is it urgent?"
"Yes, we’re leaving tonight."
"Well, alright. It’s not too busy now, I’ll apply for leave from Mr. Bo." Yin Hu grabbed his phone, then rembered it was out of battery, feeling a bit embarrassed, "Um..."
"Brother Hu, it’s quite unfortunate, my phone is also out of battery. But I can send an email from my laptop in my bag. Why don’t you email Brother Long and let him know?"
"Then... alright!"
Seeing Yin Hu agree so readily, Gu Shiyin quickly turned off her own phone behind her back.
The last image before shutting down was a series of latest headlines that just hit the top news:
"Breaking! Old President’s chief envoy holds press conference, clears Bao Gucheng of illegal dical practice charges!"
"Rumor has it that Old President has awakened, and Miss Xi is the secret miracle-working doctor behind it!"
"President Residence is investigating the source of false online ssages, vowing to catch the ringleader of rumor-mongering!"
"Brother Hu, the place we’re going is quite remote, and a bit... scary. Are you sure it’s okay to take leave like this?"
"No problem. But you’re a girl, it’s important to have soone to protect you when you’re out."
"Brother Hu is my knight in shining armor."
"Cough, cough, cough..."

Central Hospital VIP Room, Imperial Capital.
After seeing the Old President in good condition upon waking up, Zuzi didn’t stay long and prepared to leave.
Naturally, Bai Fei accompanied her eagerly, offering to see her off: "Little Fairy, take my car, I’ll drive you back to school."
Chen Long, responsible for the security of the ward, quickly stopped him: "Mr. Bai, without Mr. Bo’s permission, you can’t leave the ward."
Bai Fei: "Co on, Bao Gucheng is comfortably sleeping in prison. He’s allowed to go out but I’m not? Besides, the surgery was successful, the task is done, I’m not under his control anymore!"
Chen Long’s lips twitched: "Mr. Bai, you can leave if you want. But you can’t drive Miss Xi."
"If I don’t drive her, will you?"
"I can."
"You’ll drive Miss Xi, then if your boss is released from prison in the middle of the night, who will pick him up?"
"I..." For the first ti, Chen Long found himself unable to argue against this twisted logic of the flirt.
Just as he was about to use force to stop Mr. Bo’s rival, Wei Yang suddenly ca over with a laptop: "Brother Long, why’s Brother Hu making such a fuss about taking leave through email?"
"What’s he up to?"
"No idea, can’t reach him by phone, he said it’s urgent, going out for three days."
Upon hearing this, Zuzi, who was slowly heading out, raised her brows slightly, a soft smile appearing on her lips.
It was enough to leave Bai Fei srized: "Little Ancestor, when you smile, all the flowers in the world... should bloom... wait, they should be ashad to the point of hiding themselves!"
Zuzi: "Xiao Bai, your thoughts are quite peculiar."
She lazily teased Bai Fei, her gaze sweeping across a nearby dical laboratory’s corridor, stopping her feet unconsciously.
Behind her, Chen Long, who was baffled by Yin Hu’s bizarre email leave, quickly caught up: "Miss Xi, maybe you should hold on? I’ll go get a car and take you so we can pick up Mr. Bo together..."
This would be killing two birds with one stone, eliminating Bai Fei, the cunning male third wheel, by process of elimination, heh heh.
Unexpectedly, this "perfect" plan did not get a response from Zuzi.
Zuzi, in a white dress, stood in front of the dical laboratory’s glass window, her beautiful eyes fixed, staring inside...
Her expression was indescribably complex!
