Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

br>“I’ll give you another bottle in a few days.
I guarantee you’ll recover fully after taking it.”

Huo Xiang was stunned.
He instinctively clenched the hand resting on the table and stammered.
“Full… full recovery?”

Huo Yao blinked at him before getting up to clear the dishes.
She smiled and continued to speak while walking towards the kitchen.
“Brother Xiang, don’t worry.
I’m here.”

Huo Xiang looked at his sister from behind.
His mind was in a tizzy.
He wanted to ask her what she meant, but a voice in his head told him to not overthink her words.

Huo Yao came out after doing the dishes to see Huo Xiang immersed in deep thought.
She didn’t probe him on it and only said, “Brother Xiang, I’m going upstairs.”

Huo Xiang gathered his thoughts and looked up.
“Oh, sure.”

After Huo Yao went upstairs, he walked over to the living room to sit down on the couch.
He looked at Huo Jinyan perplexedly.
“Dad, do you think Yao sometimes sounds really… mysterious?”

“Mysterious?” Huo Jinyan narrowed his eyes.

Then he picked up a cushion on the couch and hurled it at his youngest son.
“Your little sister even brought supper for you.
How can you think that she’s weird?”

Huo Xiang’s lips twitched.
He had clearly said ‘mysterious’.
Why did the word change to ‘weird’ while rolling off his father’s tongue?

He was seriously starting to believe that his father was perpetually waiting for a chance to pounce on him.

Huo Xiang scratched his head and said, “Wasn’t Yao raised by her foster grandmother in a small town since young? In theory, her friends should be limited to classmates and neighbors from that town, right?”

Huo Jinyan glanced at him.
“What are you trying to say?”

Huo Xiang went quiet for two seconds before uttering softly.
“Didn’t she give me a bottle of meds? I checked it with an expert.
As per him, the pills are priceless and super rare.”
