Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss-Chapter 1836 Don’t Believe In Destiny

Shangguan Tong's eyes landed on the white jade pendant at Huo Yao's fingertips. After looking at it fixedly, she quickly said, "That's the one, but this is a fake."

She could tell at a glance that it was fake. Google search 𝑓𝚛𝚎𝗲𝙬ℯ𝘣𝚗𝘰ν𝐞l. co𝗺

Huo Yao pondered briefly before she slowly placed the jade pendant back under her collar. She did not mention where the real thing was located. "Were you the one who gave the jade pendant to the Lu family?"

"Yes. Your master personally gave it to them." Shangguan Tong nodded and answered candidly. "Something went wrong, but fortunately, your master managed to find you."

This happened because the infants were swapped at birth. Since she was unclear about the details, she did not mention it to Huo Yao.

Shangguan Tong also did not dare to talk about her master, afraid that she would feel sad thinking about him.

Huo Yao lowered her eyes, so it was impossible to see her expression. She simply said softly, "I wish he didn't come out to begin with."

Shangguan Tong parted her lips briefly. In the end, she raised her hand and placed it on Huo Yao's shoulder. "This is the Shangguan clan's destiny. Since he was able to save you, I'm sure he's very happy."

Huo Yao tightened her fists and could sense her eyes going teary. "I don't believe in destiny."

"Ahem ahem…" Shangguan Tong could not help suddenly coughing. Blood appeared on the corner of her lips, but she raised her hand to wipe it so that Huo Yao could not see.

After clearing her throat, she changed the subject. "Oh yes. That guy who sent us back last night. Is he your boyfriend?"

"Uh huh." Huo Yao nodded. Her expression softened a lot.

When Shangguan Tong got out of Mirage Base last night, she had a chance to say a few words to Min Yu. "He seems like a good guy."

"Yes, he is." Huo Yao smiled.

Shangguan Tong shook her head. She did not expose Huo Yao for having a weakness toward good-looking people. She finally raised her hand and pressed the lift button. "Competition to be the heir is very strong, so take care."

Even though she was telling Huo Yao to take care, she did not seem very worried.

Huo Yao nodded. "Uh huh. Aunt Tong… No, I mean Eldest Aunt. Take care as well."

Shangguan Tong went speechless.

The lift chimed after arriving on the floor.

After the lift door opened, Huo Yao stepped in and turned around to press the ground floor button. She raised her head and waved at Shangguan Tong. "Go back. I'm sure Eldest Uncle misses you."

Shangguan Tong did not know what to say.

Despite her age, she was completely embarrassed.

As the lift door closed, the smile on Huo Yao's face slowly disappeared.

She had an inkling about why Aunt Tong was here.

Huo Yao raised her head looking at the numbers jumping on the panel above as the lift went downstairs. Lots of thoughts emerged in her mind.

Life was good for her now and she did not want it to change.

The lift arrived at the ground floor.

As Huo Yao walked out, she took out her phone and logged into her Cloud Realm account. She swiped down to the administrator account and sent a couple of messages.

After the Sangry Town councilor approached Huo Wanying, she drove back to the Huo estate.

When Huo Wanying got back home, Meryl was just on her way out for an appointment. Since her daughter looked preoccupied, she did not leave right away.

"What's wrong, Wanying? Did something happen?"

Meryl told the maid to send a glass of water for Huo Wanying as she spoke.

Huo Wanying glanced at her. "Nothing."

Meryl knew that today was the day that they got to draw union assignments. She paused briefly and then asked in a worried tone. "Did you get a difficult assignment?"
