Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

Chapter 1784 Unfit To Be The Eldest Daughter Of The Clan

?

"Probably," acknowledged Zhuo Yun. "Apparently, there's an ancient ruin at Blaye containing a lot of archaeological relics and treasures. A lot of people have already gathered there."

"I have made arrangements for our people to follow Prof Min and the others, so they should be fine," Zhuo Yun added.

Min Yu always trusted Zhuo Yun, so he nodded. "Uh huh."

Zhuo Yun glanced at his boss cautiously. He pondered briefly and asked. "Do we want to check it out too?"

Min Yu looked up slightly.

"With treasure around, raiders are bound to show up. Maybe the stupid thief who touched our stuff previously will also show up there," said Zhuo Yun indignantly.

After searching for years, they still had not found that horrid thief. It was simply embarrassing!

Huo Yao came upstairs from the basement. The moment she heard Zhuo Yun mention 'stupid thief', her feet froze for a split second.

She glanced at Zhuo Yun before she went straight to get some warm water.

When Min Yu spotted her, he stopped listening to Zhuo Yun and asked. "Are you done?"

Zhuo Yun turned sideways slightly and quickly nodded to Huo Yao. "Hi, Miss Huo."

Huo Yao leaned against the sideboard casually and replied coolly. "Nope. I was just thirsty, so I came out to get some water."

As she spoke, she lowered her head to take a sip without so much as looking at the two of them.

Hmph! Stupid thief?

They had already unknowingly invited the stupid thief onto their territory.

Zhuo Yun touched his nose. Why did he have a feeling that Miss Huo wasn't happy?

He paused briefly. He could not help turning to look at his boss and asking softly. "Did you make Miss Huo angry?"

Min Yu went speechless.

"You need to be more patient with girls," muttered Zhuo Yun again.

Min Yu's face twitched. "If that's all, you may leave."

Zhuo Yun promptly shut up and swiftly left the villa.

After he was gone, Huo Yao wanted to continue working on the robot in the basement, but her phone suddenly rang in her pocket.

It was an unknown phone number.

Huo Yao glanced at it mildly and hung up the phone immediately.

Unless it was via WeChat, she did not take any calls now.

Meanwhile, at the Huo estate.

When Huo Wanying heard the call getting cut, she calmly removed the phone from her ear.

"How did it go?" Huo Qing asked, sitting from the couch when he spotted Huo Wanying's reaction.

"She hung up," replied Huo Wanying mildly.

Huo Qing pursed his lips and seemed to have seen this coming. "I told you, right? Your Second Uncle's niece doesn't get along with people well."

Huo Wanying made no remark and simply said, "It doesn't matter if she refuses to answer the phone. After all, she doesn't have any say in the clan's matters."

Huo Qing raised his brow on hearing this. "Wanying, I'm glad you feel the same way. If we don't acknowledge her as the eldest daughter of the clan, she can't do anything about it."

Huo Qing looked emotional. He paused and continued. "In my eyes, other than you, no one is fit to be the eldest daughter of the family."

"Third Uncle, don't ever mention this publicly again. I don't want to attract gossip." Huo Wanying composed herself, so it was impossible to see what she was thinking now. "To me, it doesn't matter who becomes the eldest daughter of the family."

Huo Qing knew it was best to stop harping on this issue. He raised his hand to glance at the time and stood up. "Come on. Let's go to the conference room first. The elders are probably all there."
