Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss



The Eldest Elder glanced at the councilor. "Why? Do you think Miss Huo isn't a part of the family?"

The councilor's face froze briefly. That was not what he meant when he said they should not send Miss Huo for this work. He looked at the Eldest Elder and explained anxiously. "That was not what I meant. I was just…"

Before he could finish his sentence, the old man raised his hand and interrupted him. "Enough. You should have faith in Miss Huo that she can handle the simple task of signing a contract."

The Eldest Elder paused slightly. He looked at Huo Yao and smiled. "Miss Huo, are you okay?"

Huo Yao raised her brow. Her beautiful eyes looked deep and confident as she nodded. "Of course."

"Then it's settled!" He concluded. After he was done, he picked up the tablet and started to let the other candidates draw lots.

The councilor parted his lips, wanting to speak. Eventually, he sat back in his chair helplessly and stopped arguing against the decision.

Without Master Jinfeng around, the elders called the shots. They were the ones who wanted to test and select the new heir. It was clear they had deliberately designed the second test today to be this way.

Even if he was against it, it was futile.

Before long, everyone knew their union assignments.

After the lots were drawn, the meeting ended.

Most of the people had left. Only two branch councilors were sitting at the conference table.

One of them was the councilor in charge of Sangry Town and his surname was Ding. At this moment, he looked very worried.

"Ding, let's go." The person beside him patted his shoulder.

Councilor Ding glanced at his colleague. He smiled sadly, nodded, and got up.

When he saw the depressed look on Councilor Ding's face, he spoke softly in an encouraging tone as they walked. "Eldest Elder is temporarily in charge owing to Master Jinfeng's condition. Now that things have come to this, why don't you secretly talk to him? Get him to send a couple of people with more say in the family to Sangry Town. This way, you don't have to worry that something might go wrong because of Miss Huo."

Hearing this, Councilor Ding shook his head. "It's no use asking him. They are out to get Miss Huo's blood."

"That's true." His colleague sighed. He looked up and saw Huo Wanying waiting for the lift and a notion emerged in his mind. He suggested. "Oh yes. Why don't you talk to Miss Wanying?"

Councilor Ding was stunned briefly. "Why her?"

"Miss Wanying has done well in our circles all these years. If she can help, your problem will be solved," said his colleague.

"That idea is even worse. Let's not forget that Miss Wanying is one of the candidates as well, so Miss Huo is her opponent. How could she help? You must be joking, right?"

Eldest Elder and the others obviously want Huo Wanying to win. Would she be stupid enough to help her opponent?

Councilor Ding disagreed with his colleague's suggestion again.

"Even then, this is for the sake of the clan."

Miss Huo might have performed astoundingly yesterday, but she was unknown in the trade. Even if they told people that she was the eldest daughter of the clan, other than the family members, no one else would know her.

Huo Wanying was one up in this area.

After all, it took time and diligence to accumulate experience and standing. Without the relevant experience, she would naturally be on the losing end.

Councilor Ding naturally knew what his colleague meant. He looked at Huo Wanying as she stood in front of the lift. In reality, he was already starting to waver. "… Let me think."

Meanwhile, Huo Yao and Huo Yulin got into the car.

With the others gone, Huo Yulin spoke with complicated emotions in his heart, "You know a trap is waiting for you there, so why did you agree to it?"
