Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss - Chapter 1287
Chapter 1287: A Matter Of Pride
Zhuo Yun came back from outside before long. When he came back, he saw Min Yu and Huo Yao sitting side by side. Min Yu was blatantly holding her hand.
Zhuo Yun cleared his throat and walked up to Min Yu and spoke softly.
Min Yu turned to look at Huo Yao. “I need to go. Can you wait for me here?”
“Sure.” Huo Yao nodded. “Just do your thing.”
Min Yu acknowledged softly before squeezing her hand and letting it go. Before long, he walked out of the surveillance control room with Zhuo Yun.
After they had left, someone else entered the room.
The man was in charge of the surveillance control room, and was a computer expert. He used to admire Yang Yi. Ever since seeing Huo Yao’s work, he instantly started admiring her instead and threw Yang Yi to the back of his mind.

The man had come back into the room to keep his eyes on the surveillance, but he took the opportunity to have a little chat with Huo Yao about computing.
Since Huo Yao had nothing better to do, she did not mind sharing a few pointers and teaching the guy.

Meanwhile, Min Yu had gone back to the private room and was standing at the window looking downstairs.
The auction was officially over, so people were leaving the place. The bright lights in the auction hall suddenly went dark.
Even the lights in the private rooms had gone off and the entire place suddenly plunged into darkness.
In an instant, people started screaming and the place went into chaos.
A lot of people took out their phones to use their torchlights.
Min Yu watched calmly without the slightest expression on his face. The men were already in place and it was time for them to move in on the kill.
Two minutes later, Yang Yi spoke to Min Yu over the mike.
“We have checked everyone. No one was found with fluorescent powder,” said Yang Yi deeply as he frowned.
Min Yu narrowed his eyes. “Did anyone leave halfway?”
“Nope.” Yang Yi shook his head. They were already prepared, but no one tried to leave ahead of time.
Zhuo Yun spoke over the mike as well. “I couldn’t find anyone suspicious either.”
“I suspect the culprit is aware of our setup. Otherwise, how could he escape without being detected?” remarked Yang Yi deeply.
“I feel the same way, but the leak didn’t come from us. This is mind-boggling.” Zhuo Yun sounded annoyed.
Everyone thought they could finally nab the culprit, but it turned out to be a failure.
Min Yu kept standing at the window, listening to their reports. After some time, he finally said, “Since the culprit can enter the auction storeroom without getting detected, it’s no surprise he could leave without getting caught.’
It was true, but Yang Yi and Zhuo Yun could not help feeling upset. It was the Nth time this had happened to them!
It was starting to hurt their pride!
“What now? Shall we continue finding him?” asked Zhuo Yun.
Min Yu rubbed his fingers and said, “Don’t bother.”
“What if he’s still here. If we give up now, we might never find him again,” said Yang Yi sternly.
“You won’t be able to find him. Forget it,” said Min Yu mildly.
Yang Yi and Zhuo Yun went quiet.
“Oh yes. Keep the medicine,” said Min Yu.
