Not only is he no match for them, but he might also end up like his assistant and Xie Zhendong, with his arms twisted behind his back and being dragged away, which would be quite embarrassing.

No matter how unwilling he was, he could only suppress his temper and walk out of the private room first.

It wasn't until everyone had left and been left on the street that Huo Yuntang felt a surge of anger rising in his chest, almost burning him to the point of losing his mind.

Xie Ziyuan's expression was also not very good. She had always had a smooth life since childhood, and this was the first time she had been kicked out like this.

The group quickly contacted the driver, got in the car, and left, not daring to linger for even a second longer.

——

In the car, after sorting out her thoughts, Xie Ziyuan asked Huo Yuntang gently, "Yuntang, can you tell me what exactly happened?"

She had just contacted her master, Bai Heng, and after hearing her description, the old man just kept sneering.

Then he left with the words, "Don't drag me down with you guys," and hung up the phone.

This made Xie Ziyuan feel uneasy. It was just kicking someone out, why was it so serious?

She knew that Huo Yuntang had always been somewhat domineering, and she even wanted to use Huo Yuntang as a tool to pave her way without saying a word.

Now look what's happened; I've inexplicably dragged myself down with this mess.

Huo Yuntang raised his hand to press his temples, his cold gaze fixed on his assistant, Huo, in the passenger seat.

Assistant Huo was utterly terrified. "Young Master, I don't know, I don't know anything..."

"I... I went directly to the security supervisor and asked him to kick Pharmacist Chen out. I was annoyed by him, but I don't know anything else..."

Xie Ziyuan frowned. Is that all?

Is this really worth the Chinese Medicine Association's enforcement department making such a big fuss about?

Assistant Huo was practically sobbing uncontrollably. Huo Yuntang listened quietly, then suddenly said, "Stop the car and let him out. I hope to see your resignation letter tomorrow."

He messed up such a small thing and made him lose face. He can't keep someone like that around.

Assistant Huo was completely dumbfounded: "Young Master, Young Master, you can't do this..."

Huo Yuntang: "I've already given you one chance."

The last time I went to see Xie Li, it was supposed to be a very simple matter, but he couldn't even intimidate a little village girl, which resulted in him receiving a verbal warning from Old Master Huo.

Huo Yuntang's patience had run out; incompetent people didn't deserve to stay by his side.

Assistant Huo was dumbfounded. He looked to Xie Ziyuan for help, only to find that Xie Ziyuan wasn't even looking at him.

He couldn't help but sneer inwardly. Huo Yuntang seemed like a well-mannered young nobleman, but in reality, he was narrow-minded.

Xie Ziyuan appears to be gentle, dignified, and kind-hearted, but in reality—she is a sophisticated egoist.

These two are both incredibly shrewd and incredibly selfish; they're a perfect match!

At this moment, he felt a little sorry for the Xie family's real daughter whom he had driven away. How could a little village girl possibly fight against these two?

——

Having gained nothing today and even offended the Chinese Medicine Association, Xie Ziyuan was somewhat frustrated.

But no matter how frustrated she was, she couldn't take it out on Huo Yuntang.

Neither of them was in the mood, so they went back to their respective residences.

After calming down, Xie Ziyuan decided to call Ding Huizhu.

"Mom, I've seen rumors online about my little sister. Should our family issue a formal clarification?"

She also saw the two Weibo posts from Xie's Group and Huichuntang, which are currently trending on social media and being criticized.

Ding Huizhu was at the Ding family home at the time, and she had no idea how she had spent the day.

Grandpa Xie posted such a Weibo post without even giving a heads-up; he's practically playing with fire and getting burned.
