Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

[Our next-door neighbors are the ones who kept trying to buy our place.]

Huo Yao’s lips twitched.
She raised her head and looked at Min Yu, with an ambiguous smile.
“I heard you wanted to buy my place.”

Min Yu, Zhuo Yun, and Yang Yi went speechless.

Moments later, both Min Yu and Yang Yi looked at Zhuo Yun.
Zhuo Yun covered his face after getting a cue from them.
He said in a sad voice, “Erm… Miss Huo, in reality…”

A few minutes later, Huo Yao finished hearing about the events that had transpired.
She went quiet for a few seconds before she said, “I don’t like flashy things.
If you really want to give me something, just transfer the money to me.”

She paused before she added.
“I will send you my bank account later.
Since we are such good friends, don’t be stingy.”

Zhuo Yun was speechless.

She certainly did not hold back, did she!

Before long, Huo Yao left Min Yu’s place and went home.
Huo Jinyan had been waiting for her in the living room.
When she returned, he quickly asked her.
“What did they want to see you for?”

Huo Yao’s mind was preoccupied.
She raised her head to glance at her father and replied casually.
“Nothing much.
I told them to stop trying to buy our place.”

Huo Jinyan could not help responding quizzically.
“That’s all?”

He had thought about what transpired sometime ago.
His daughter clearly seemed to be acquainted with them, and they certainly were not reaching out to her regarding the house.

Huo Yao was in a fix.
She could not tell her father that their next-door neighbor was the tuition teacher, whom he kept insisting upon meeting.
Hence, she simply ignored his sceptical gaze.

Song Ning was calling them over for dinner, so Huo Yao quickly proceeded to the dining table.

Her father looked at her from behind and felt that she was holding something back from him!
