Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss



The bodyguard came over with the Chinese medicine prepared in the morning.

Huo Yao had finished applying the last needle. After removing them, the unconscious Rocco moved his eyes.

After a few seconds, he slowly opened his eyes.

The bodyguard looked relieved and delighted. "Your Highness, you finally woke up."

After a few seconds, Rocco finally completely woke up. He turned his head slightly to see Huo Yao standing by the bed.

A look of astonishment appeared on his face.

"You saved me again."

Huo Yao smiled politely. "Think nothing of it."

After coughing a couple of times, he leaned against the bed and sat up with the help of the bodyguard. "You know my condition. I might die anytime…"

Huo Yao shook her head instead. "Your Highness, you suddenly passed out because something's wrong with the drugs."

The bodyguard was shocked but quickly said, "Didn't you say that this medicine could help alleviate His Highness's condition?"

"That's true." Huo Yao put down the cup and looked at Rocco. "There's something extra in the meds today. If His Highness continued taking it for three more days, he would never wake up."

The bodyguard's face turned pale. "How could this happen? I personally bought the herbs and prepared the concoction…"

"Someone wants something to happen to His Highness, so they naturally have plenty of ways to get the job done," explained Huo Yao calmly.

The bodyguard knelt on one knee by the bed. "Your Highness, I…"

"Enough. If you did it, you wouldn't have brought Miss Huo over." Even though Rocco's voice sounded weak, it was still dignified.

The bodyguard bit his lip and felt guilty. He looked at Huo Yao. "How's His Highness now?"

Huo Yao paused briefly. "I can still save him."

When the bodyguard heard what she said, he nearly wanted to kowtow to Huo Yao. "You have to save His Highness."

A lot of doctors had examined the prince today, but only the young woman could make him regain consciousness. Just on this alone, she had proven her medical abilities.

Huo Yao glanced at Rocco and said, "I will write you a new prescription. We'll use it to condition your body first before I give you a second prescription."

Mainly, she did not have any tools, so she could not refine medicine here.

"Thanks, Miss Huo," said the bodyguard in gratitude.

"You're welcome." Huo Yao waved her hand.

Before long, Huo Yao wrote the prescription and handed it to the bodyguard. She did not linger and quickly left with Min Yu.

After they were gone, the bodyguard looked at Rocco clenching his fists with a murderous look on his face. "I'm going to investigate the residence and hunt down the traitors immediately."

"Uh huh," acknowledged Rocco softly closing his eyes. Before long, he opened them again and asked. "What's my second brother up to recently?"

"Our contacts haven't reported on the Second Prince recently." The bodyguard paused and added. "Instead, Count Kerr has been secretly sending his secretary to see the Second Prince."

Rocco coughed again. His face was transparent and pale. After some time, the cough eased up. His eyes looked deep and profound. "As expected."

"Shall I send him a warning?" asked the bodyguard hesitantly.

Rocco raised his hand. "It's fine."

The bodyguard knew that Rocco probably had other plans in mind. He nodded and replied. "Okay."

"We owe Miss Huo a favor. If anything happens to her, help in any way we can," said Rocco before he went to sleep.

The bodyguard paused briefly in surprise before he quickly acknowledged the prince.

If they could strike ties with the Huo family, it would be good for them as well.
