Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

Huo Jinfeng sounded very confident and seemed to know what she liked. Huo Yao touched her nose before she slowly opened the second layer of the gift box.

A thin gold card could be seen inside.

Two years ago when she reunited with the Huo family, her father did the same thing and gave her a black card.

Huo Yao looked at the card and sighed. She had done her utmost to keep up her good image. Judging from her eldest uncle's tone, it was completely destroyed.

She could hear her eldest uncle speak again. "Fortunately, I asked your second older brother what you liked. Otherwise, I wouldn't know what to give."

Huo Jinfeng looked relieved that he had come up with a backup plan. Otherwise, he might have embarrassed himself in front of her niece.

As an elder meeting his niece for the first time, if he failed to produce a thoughtful gift, things would be awkward.

Huo Yao's lips twitched and she could sense her forehead throbbing. "Erm… Eldest Uncle, what else did Brother Tingrui tell you?"

Despite her gentle voice, if Huo Tingrui was there, he would have undoubtedly caught a murderous tone underlying her words.

"Your second older brother is always afraid of me. He simply told me what you liked." Huo Jinfeng sighed. He failed to realize that he had just hung his second nephew out to dry.

The smile on Huo Yao's face deepened.

Well done. Stupid Brother Tingrui.

Even though Huo Tingrui was afraid of their eldest uncle, he still provided the wrong intel. From the looks of it, he needed to be taught a lesson.

Huo Tingrui suddenly sneezed back home and his right eyelid twitched hard.

Huo Tingrui touched his nose. He was overwhelmed by an ominous sensation and had an inexplicable feeling that something bad was going to happen.

Huo Yao inhaled deeply. She closed the gift box containing the diamond and gold card and said expressionlessly, "Eldest Uncle, thanks."

When Huo Jinfeng noticed his niece's 'genuine pleasure', he said in relief, "I'm glad you like it."

"Uh huh." Huo Yao lowered her eyes. If she did not like it, she might end up getting an even bigger bomb.

No matter what, her second older brother was dead meat.

"Oh yes, Eldest Uncle. When you came over to the hotel a couple of days ago, I wasn't there to receive you." Huo Yao felt it was time to change the subject.

Huo Jinfeng had barely heaved a sigh of relief, but the moment his niece brought up the subject, his face froze.

He raised his head and glanced at Huo Changfeng standing nearby. But Huo Changfeng was busy trying to suppress his laughter.

He really wanted to fire his chief steward.

Huo Jinfeng pondered to himself. However, not the slightest awkwardness appeared on him. "It's okay. I just happened to be nearby the other day."

Huo Changfeng quietly veered his eyes. Huo Jinfeng was shamelessly denying it as usual. From the looks of it, he was getting better at it by the day.

Huo Yao nodded without exposing her eldest uncle. She glanced at his face and frowned slightly.

Didn't Uncle Changfeng say her eldest uncle was getting a lot better?

From the looks of it, even though his face looked normal, he was weak inside. He was no different from a rotting tree filled with worms. Despite its lush appearance, it was filled with so many holes inside that it might get uprooted by some wind.

Huo Yao wanted to take his pulse but now was not the right time. She paused briefly and decided to pick some other time to do it without him catching on.
