Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss
1809 How Could A Woman Become The Heir?
Huo Wanying stood where she was motionlessly watching the car drive off. People walked out from behind her one after another. When they looked at her, there was something different in their eyes.
After all, it was a known fact that she was one of the best among them. However, she had lost badly to Huo Yao who just returned to the clan not too long ago. Considering the results, it was only natural for everyone to doubt Huo Wanying's abilities.
It was as though the filter had been removed. No matter how beautiful she looked on camera, visually speaking, people automatically felt she was no longer as beautiful.
Despite their opinions, they kept them to themselves. No one wanted to talk to her knowing she was angry. They automatically avoided her and walked off.
Huo Wanying pursed her lips without paying attention to their strange looks. When she got to her car, her phone rang in her pocket.
It was her mother calling again.
It was already the fifth call today.
Huo Wanying did not answer the phone. Instead, she drove her car to the racecourse.
Meryl was still waiting for the results of the day. When her daughter did not answer the phone, she frowned.
After pacing up and down the living room a couple of times, she swiped down to Huo Qing's phone number and dialed it.
The call got through before long.
The moment it got through, Meryl asked about the test outcome on this day.
"Wanying was good, but we underestimated Master Jinfeng's niece," replied Huo Qing deeply.
Meryl's eyes constricted on hearing this. She reacted in disbelief. "Do you mean to say she lost?"
Huo Qing simply sighed.
"How can that be? Master Qing, you must be joking, right? How could she lose?"
"No one saw this coming," said Huo Qing while he smiled sadly.
Previously, they felt Huo Yulin was Huo Wanying's strongest opponent and did not consider Huo Yao a threat at all. Unexpectedly, Huo Yao defeated Huo Wanying.
This completely messed up their plans.
If Huo Wanying did not suggest adding Huo Yao's name to the list of potential candidates to be heir, this would not have happened.
Huo Qing felt annoyed just thinking about it. Why didn't he stop her previously?
"Does this mean Wanying can't be the heir anymore?" Meryl was unsure about how the matter worked in the clan, so she asked anxiously.
Huo Qing gathered his thoughts. "That's not true. There's one more test to go and it's a task given by the union. After the test, there's a voting process as well. This means she still has a chance to be the heir."
In reality, combat and shooting were just basic tests, so it did not mean much to lose them. The test given by the union was critical to becoming the heir.
To put it bluntly, just brawn alone was not enough to qualify as the heir. Without brains and tenacity, how could someone become the heir?
Even if Master Jinfeng's niece had won today, she was still quite a distance from Huo Wanying. After all, Huo Wanying had made a lot of contributions to the clan over the years.
The moment Meryl heard what Huo Qing said, she felt a little relieved. "No matter what, Wanying was single-handedly groomed by Master Jinfeng. Even if she can't become the heir, we can't let someone else enjoy the fruits of other's work without doing anything."
Huo Qing pursed his lips. He comforted Meryl patronizingly and hung up the phone.
She was just a woman, but she wanted to become the heir. It was the most hilarious thing he had heard in his life.

Min Yu and Huo Yao had just met up in the car.
"Did Yang Yi get in touch with you?" asked Huo Yao.
Min Yu parked the car by the roadside without starting the engine. "Yes, he did. He only managed to get into the Mirage Base not long ago, so he needed some time to contact us."
