Boss Geng also stood up and rushed out of the room.

Yu Youwei couldn’t care less. He ran towards the courtyard door at the back anxiously.

When he reached the back door, he realized that it could not be opened at all. He quickly turned around to look for an axe.

He did not expect it to be snatched away by Boss Geng, who had also run over. He was stunned. “Boss, I…”

“You what? Why are you running? Can’t you smell that the medicine in our clinic is burnt? Hurry up and save the medicine.”

As he spoke, he kicked Yu Youwei into the storeroom. The fire came from the hall, and the medicine in the cabinet in the hall might not be able to be rescued. However, there was even more medicine in the storeroom. That was his assets. Without those assets, how could he open a clinic? He could just wait to go bankrupt.

“I’m telling you, if you dare to run, I’ll break your legs.”

Seeing that the fire had not spread to the storeroom, Yu Youwei gritted his teeth and went in.

Boss Geng threw the axe aside and followed him into the storeroom.

The two of them carried the herbs to the cart in the courtyard bit by bit. They were sweating profusely and their backs ached.

Seeing that the fire was about to reach them, Yu Youwei retreated after only moving a third of the medicinal herbs. “Boss, let’s escape quickly. Otherwise, it’ll be too late.”

At this moment, the sound of people coming and going to put out the fire could be heard outside the door. It seemed like someone was helping to smash the backyard door.

Boss Geng was relieved and said to Youwei, “Let’s each carry out another bag. Take out the boxes in the innermost area.”

Yu Youwei went in hurriedly. At this moment, the person who was smashing the door outside finally came in.

At first glance, he almost vomited blood from anger when he saw the two of them running into the storeroom to move the medicine in the thick smoke.

“Are the two of you crazy? Such a big fire is coming. Instead of escaping or putting out the fire, you actually want to move the herbs. Is money more important than human lives?”

The people outside came in one after another. They fetched water and put out the fire.

Fortunately, the houses nearby were not close to each other, and they reacted in time, so the spread was not too big.

Gu Yundong still did not know how serious the incident at Renxin Medical Hall was. She rested after accompanying Madam Yang for dinner.

The next day, she packed her things and prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, just as she walked out of the inn, a group of people suddenly rushed over.

The leader, Yu Youwei, pointed at her with a trembling finger and said, “It’s her. She was the one who got someone to burn down our medical center. It’s her.”

Gu Yundong was surprised. Burn down the medical center?

Yu Youwei’s face was dark, and his clothes were tattered. She almost didn’t recognize him.

This was…

Perhaps because of this, Madam Yang did not recognize him, so she was not as flustered as yesterday. She only grabbed Gu Yundong’s hand in confusion.

Gu Yundong raised her eyebrows. “Uncle, you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want. What do you mean by burning down your medical center? Please explain what happened.”

“Uncle, you’re the uncle. I’m Yu Youwei. You even hit me yesterday.” He wiped his face forcefully, but his sleeve was black. The more he wiped, the dirtier he became.

“Miss, Renxin Medical Hall was on fire last night and the fire was only put out this morning. The owner of the medical hall, Geng Yi, had his leg injured, and all the medicinal herbs in the hall were destroyed. The doctor of the medical hall, Yu Youwei, claims that you ordered someone to set the fire to take revenge on him. Please come with us.”

A constable walked forward and said to Gu Yundong with a cold face..
