Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss-Chapter 605: Who Was Her Eldest Uncle?

Chapter 605: Who Was Her Eldest Uncle?

Huo Yanxi walked around the coffee table and headed out the moment he finished his sentence. However, he stumbled after taking two steps. Fortunately, Song Ning got to him in time.

Song Ning said worriedly, “How can you go back like this? Why don’t you stay the night?”

Huo Yanxi steadied himself before he forced a smile. “I have called someone over to drive. Mom, don’t worry.”

“How can I let you go? I will not have a peaceful mind letting you leave you on your own in this state.” Song Ning frowned before she said to Huo Tingrui, “Take your brother to his room.”

Huo Yanxi instinctively raised his head and looked at Huo Yao who was nearby. She had put her phone away and looked calm. Perhaps since he was looking at her, she raised her head and glanced back at him.

However, she said nothing.

Huo Yanxi felt slightly sad.

Huo Yanxi ended up staying the night at Song Ning’s insistence.

After Huo Tingrui sent Huo Yanxi to his room, Song Ning contemplated before turning to talk to her daughter. Before she could say something, Huo Yao’s voice reached her.

“Mom, have an early night. I’m heading back to my room.”

Song Ning said, “Yao, Yanxi is...”

Huo Yao sighed and said, “Mom, do you think I am a petty person?”

Huo Yanxi and Lu Xia had been siblings for over a decade, it was natural for them to have feelings for each other.

She would rather spend the time reading than bear a grudge over what he did.

Song Ning wanted to say more but could not bring herself to say anything when she saw her daughter’s nonchalant expression.

Huo Yao smiled before she picked up her phone, said good night, and headed upstairs.

After she went back to her room, Huo Yao washed up and started to read the psychology books that Min Yu had given her.

She wanted to examine Huo Yulin’s pulse today but did not get the opportunity.

Before long, someone knocked on her door.

Huo Yao placed the book on her pillow, and pulled the blanket off. She put on a jacket before getting the door.

Huo Yao blinked when she saw her third older brother standing at the door.

Huo Yulin was holding a box. He handed it to Huo Yao and said, “I have a gift for you.”

Huo Yao’s eyes landed on the box. It was slightly big and wrapped with gift wrap, so it was impossible to see what it was.

Huo Yao did not dare to take the present when she recalled the three large boxes of revision material that Huo Yulin had given her previously. In theory, there might be more revision material in this box.

She had PTSD towards revision material now.

Huo Yulin cleared his throat and looked upset when she did not take the gift. “I wasn’t sure what you liked. Since you took great interest in the electronic products at my place, I got you a laptop.”

Huo Yao felt relieved to hear it was a laptop and promptly took the box from him. “Thanks, Brother Yulin!”

The specifications of the computer in her room were genuinely terrible. Since she did not use the internet much, she had not taken the effort to replace it yet.

“You’re welcome,” said Huo Yulin before he retrieved a small box from his pocket and gave it to her. “This is from our oldest uncle.”

This was not the first time Huo Yao heard about their eldest uncle. She hesitated before reaching her hand out to take the box as she asked him. “Who is our eldest uncle?”

Ever since she returned to the Huo family, she had not heard about any relatives nor did she pay much attention to the details of their extended family.
