Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

1753 The Huo Family’s Status

Huo Yao glanced sideways at the paper bag in Min Yu’s hand. “Didn’t you say that the dress didn’t suit me?”

Min Yu used his free hand to hold Huo Yao’s palm and answered with a straight face. “My girlfriend has already worn the dress. How could I let someone else wear it?”

Huo Yao scoffed. “Childish!”

Min Yu raised his brow. He turned his head sideways and said softly in her ear, “Moreover, I’ve already crumpled the dress, so people might not buy it anymore.”

Huo Yao’s face instantly turned red. “…”

He was simply shameless!

Huo Yao did not want to continue listening to someone talk any further. She gave him a kick, pulled her hand back, and walked to the escalator.

Min Yu smiled and kept up.

Meanwhile, on the other end.

At Fan Shun’s private estate.

“Count Kerr just called. The girl is going to attend his birthday banquet tomorrow.”

Fan Shun was typing on the laptop, but his hands froze. He looked up slightly on hearing this.

The assistant continued. “Count Kerr has a message for you. The Huo family’s clan leader is severely injured and no one knows if he’s dead or alive. Even if we touch the girl, people in the family probably won’t care.”

“Is Huo Jinfeng severely injured? That’s quite a coincidence.” Fan Shun looked at his assistant in surprise.

The assistant nodded. “I don’t think Count Kerr will joke about this, so it’s probably true.”

Fan Shun leaned into the seat. “Who else did Morey invite?”

The assistant had already checked up on this. “People from some influential families along with elders and princes from the royalty. This banquet is considered to be quite grand.”

Fan Shun nodded. “The more people there are, the more cover they will have. Morey is certainly a wily fox.”

“Exactly. Now, the number of potential targets has increased. After all, even if the Huo family is very powerful, they would never dare to offend all those people.” The assistant promptly analyzed Morey’s intentions.

Even though Morey had planned this, he would successfully stop people from suspecting him of any involvement.

Fan Shun smiled with intrigue and continued typing on the laptop. “Go, get ready then.”

The assistant glanced at Fan Shun quietly. He acknowledged Fan Shun and left.

The next day.

The banquet at Count Kerr’s residence was expected to start at 6:00 pm.

At 5:00 in the evening, Huo Yao got dressed and went downstairs.

Huo Yulin was also wearing a tuxedo and his every gesture looked refined. He was on the phone. When he turned around and saw his little sister, his eyes froze briefly.

She was dressed in a retro, long, black dress looking composed and graceful. The gold embroidery on her collar made her fair complexion look even more flawless.

Her slightly wavy hair was done up with a single hairpin. She was like a classic beauty straight out of a painting.

His little sister was simply beautiful.

The moment he saw the dress she was wearing, it put Huo Yulin in a bad mood. “He has very questionable taste.”

“Yes, Brother Yulin?” Huo Yao walked closer, but she could only hear the last few words her brother had said.

Huo Yulin shook his head. He raised his arm and gestured for her to hold it. “I was saying you’re looking very pretty.”

“I think so too.” Huo Yao was always confident about her beauty. She nodded and held Huo Yulin’s arm.

Huo Yulin smiled. “Let’s go.”

Before long, the two of them got into the car.

Huo Yao looked at the fleet of cars behind and blinked. “Do we really have to do it this way?”

Huo Yulin calmly explained. “This matches our status.”
