Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

Chapter 448: Did Not Want To Hurt Your Pride

Huo Yao sent the old man out through the door joyfully. The complete change in her attitude made him suspect whether she was acting.

It suddenly felt to him as though he was the one who was conned and extorted instead of her.

The old man was incapable of wrapping his mind around it even after he reached home with Min Yu.

“Tell me what you’ve been up to recently. Why were you hospitalized?” Min Yu’s voice sounded calm as he folded his sleeves up slowly.

The old man sat upright on the couch with his eyes looking shifty. “I didn’t do anything.”

The old man could not confess to blackmailing Huo Yao.

Min Yu glanced at his grandfather with an ambiguous smile on his face.

The old man coughed with his hand on the walking stick before his expression altered, and he said angrily, “What about my tea?”

Min Yu had guessed that his grandfather already knew about his tea, so he confessed candidly. “I gave it away.”

Even though Min Yu had stolen the tea, he admitted to it so confidently, making the old man furious. “You unfilial brat!”

Min Yu nodded with a straight face. “Uh huh. It’s not the first time you have praised me like this.”

Hence, he had to at least live up to his reputation.

The old man glared at Min Yu furiously. Min Yu was getting increasingly shameless.

The old man inhaled deeply. He did not want to think about his tea, so he changed the subject. “How are things going between you and the little lass next door?”

Min Yu looked at his grandfather calmly with his bright eyes. “Did you blackmail her and scam your way into their home because of this?”

Min Yu did not talk about his grandfather living off the Huo family since he did not want to embarrass his grandfather so blatantly.

The old man sneered before he looked away. “I was worried because you have never dated any girl!”

Min Yu rubbed his forehead and did not feel like talking.

“Just look at how disinterested you are. Sigh. When will I have a granddaughter-in-law?” sighed Old Master Min deeply.

Min Yu glanced at him and spoke in a deep voice. “Anything is possible in your dreams.”

Old Master Min went quiet for a few seconds before he scolded him. “Stupid boy!”

Before long, Zhuo Yun and Yang Yi dragged their feet and finally went back to the villa when they learned that Min Yu had found Old Master Min.

Zhuo Yun worked closely with Min Yu all the time, so he was not worried about seeing Old Master Min. Since Yang Yi was the one who stole the tea, he felt quite apprehensive.

Fortunately, Old Master Min merely stared daggers at him without throwing a temper.

After studying Old Master Min’s mood, Yang Yi heaved a sigh of relief. He went quiet for a while before he asked curiously, “Old Master Min, where have you been staying for the last two days?”

Yang Yi had yet to learn that Old Master Min had just come over from next door, so he was very concerned about why he was unable to locate Old Master Min’s GPS location after several tries.

The moment Yang Yi finished his sentence, Zhuo Yun looked at Old Master Min curiously as well.

The old man narrowed his eyes and looked at Yang Yi. “I don’t want to hurt your pride.”

Yang Yi’s lips twitched. He could sense his dignity coming under fire once more.

“So, where were you staying? He tried to locate your GPS several times but failed,” asked Zhuo Yun.

“He is so stupid,” sneered the old man.

Yang Yi was numb now after the recent wave of insults that were hurled at him.

Min Yu glanced at the old man and said coldly, “He was living next door.”

“Next door?” Zhuo Yun scratched his head as he contemplated.

The Huo family lived next door.

In an instant, Zhuo Yun’s eyes opened wide. Had Old Master Min been next door at Huo Yao’s place all this time?
