Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

Chapter 245: Who Was Miss Huo?



Chapter 245: Who Was Miss Huo?

Yu?

Yang Yi’s eyes widened instantly and he looked at Zhuo Yun in disbelief. How could he be so audacious as to greet their boss by his first name?

Wait a second...’Miss Huo’?

Who was that?

Zhuo Yun glanced at Yang Yi. “Oh. She is the one who gave the boss that nerve soothing incense stick.”

Yang Yi was aware that Min Yu lucked out and got his hands on a box of premium nerve soothing incense. He was forced to raid Old Master Min’s private collection and steal his prized tea because Min Yu wanted to thank the person who gave them to him. To this day, Yang Yi did not dare to show his face before Old Master Min.

“What’s Miss Huo’s background like?” asked Yang Yi quizzically.

Authentic nerve soothing incense was extremely rare. Its demanding production required the maker to be well-versed in Chinese medicine since the dosage of each ingredient affected the efficacy of the end product directly.

“A senior student.” Zhuo Yun’s voice and expression appeared calm.

Yang Yi tightened his grip on the steering wheel. For a moment, he thought he heard wrongly about her age.

Was she a member of some hidden family?

Yang Yi turned sideways to glance at Zhuo Yun. Yangyi parted his lips wanting to say something, but Zhuo Yun’s next set of words beat him to it.

“Miss Huo is a great student. She has stood first in all rounds of this contest that she signed up for,” said Zhuo Yun proudly.

Zhuo Yun’s face was filled with the kind of admiration that a poor student had for a top student, ever since he had seen her results in the National Quiz Contest.

Yang Yi: “...”

First, something went wrong with his ears. Now, it was his eyes.

Zhuo Yun saw the look of surprise on Yang Yi’s face and said sternly, “Friend, can you focus on driving? You’re putting all our lives at risk.”

Yang Yi again: “...”

Who was the one blabbering nonstop here?

At a hotel, 50 minutes later.

Huo Yao got off the minibus with her luggage. The Dean came to her with the card key for her room before long.

Usually, two students were assigned to each room. Only three girls had made it to the nationals, and two of them were from the same class, so they shared a room. As a result, Huo Yao got the room all to herself.

They took the lift to the 16th floor and headed to their respective rooms.

It was a four-star hotel’s standard room, and the place looked clean.

Huo Yao closed the door and looked around before she placed her suitcase inside the wardrobe.

She kept receiving text notifications after she came out of the bathroom, and picked up the phone to check them.

The Dean had just created a chat group and informed everyone to head to the buffet restaurant on the second floor for dinner in 15 minutes.

Huo Yao replied, ‘okay’, before she set the chat group to ‘do not disturb’ mode. She rested for a few minutes before heading out.

The Principal and the Dean were discussing something when they caught sight of Huo Yao in the restaurant. The stern look disappeared from the Principal’s face.

“This is your first time in the capital, right? Are things okay? Do you have any problems adjusting to the place?” asked the Principal with concern.

Huo Yao nodded gently to the Principal. “I’m good. Thanks for asking.”

The Principal smiled and said, “Rest early, so you can be ready for the heats tomorrow morning.”

Huo Yao nodded obediently.

The Principal did not go on talking and let her go for her dinner.

After Huo Yao left, the Dean asked him softly. “What are Huo Yao’s chances of claiming the top spot in the exam?”
