“Oh yes. Shall we tell Miss Huo’s third older brother about this?” Zhuo Yun pondered before he asked. He had asked Chen Ming for his number previously.

“Uh huh,” acknowledged Min Yu softly. It was unnecessary to keep this from Huo Yulin. Moreover, the Huo family probably had stronger connections overseas than he did.

Since he was a prime suspect for stealing archives from the National Academy of Medicine, it made no sense for him to get released on bail. Now that he was out, it was unlikely he would continue staying around, so running abroad was his best and probably the only option.

Min Yu looked out of the car window. It felt a little stifling in the car, so he extended his hand and opened the window. After letting in some cool air, he felt a little better.

Zhuo Yun stepped on the brake when a traffic light turned red. He took out his phone and sent Chen Ming a text message explaining the situation.

Perhaps Chen Ming was busy, so he did not reply to the text message immediately. Zhuo Yun did not continue texting Chen Ming.

The car arrived at the estate 30 minutes later.

Before leaving, Zhuo Yun saw Min Yu rubbing his brows. He simply assumed that Min Yu was thinking about Yuan Huan, so he said, “Don’t worry. Yuan Huan is in a delicate situation, so he can’t cause any trouble now.”

“Uh huh,” acknowledged Min Yu softly. He waved his hand before going inside the villa.

After receiving the text message from Zhuo Yun, Chen Ming reported the matter to Huo Yulin.

Huo Yulin was discharged from the hospital recently. Since the Virus Research Institute had helped provide him an alibi, he was off the hook as a suspect of breaking into the National Academy of Medicine. He had even started going back to work at the academy recently.

When he got back home, he received a call from Chen Ming. He frowned and pondered briefly before he asked. “Are you done investigating Yuan Huan?”

Chen Ming shook his head. “Just his cover story. Nothing we don’t already know. The intel’s useless.”

“It’s okay. Take your time and keep an eye on him. I’m sure he can’t continue staying in the country anymore,” said Huo Yulin.

“Okay. I’ll take care of it,” replied Chen Ming.

Chen Ming wanted to send a secret protection detail for Huo Yao. Since he had already seen Huo Yao fight and shoot, he decided otherwise.

If he did so, perhaps Huo Yao might even find it irksome.

After hanging up the phone, Huo Yulin stood in the garden for a couple of minutes before turning around to enter the villa. When he raised his head, he saw his little sister leaning against the door.

Huo Yulin was caught by surprise briefly. He walked over and asked. “When did you get back?”

Huo Yao tilted her head sideways and only straightened herself when her third older brother came closer. She glanced at the phone in his hand and replied. “Just now. Who was that on the phone at this hour?”

Huo Yulin went quiet briefly. His little sister had been very angry with him for getting hurt, and she was scary when she threw a temper at him, so he decided to be honest with her. “Chen Ming just told me that Yuan Huan is out on bail.”

Huo Yao seemed unsurprised. She nodded and said, “Saw it coming.”

Yuan Huan had worked undercover at the National Academy of Medicine for over ten years, so someone big must be helping him.

Huo Yulin knew his little sister was very independent and she did not seem worried at all. He parted his lips wanting to say something, but changed his mind and simply remarked. “Just watch your back.”

Huo Yao gestured okay and turned to enter the villa. “Brother Yulin, I’m going back to my room. Have an early night.”

Huo Yao had been very busy lately. She needed to finish working on her research project soon, so she had to go to school and work on it over the weekend as well.
