Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

Chapter 281: Don’t Piss Off Huo Tingrui

The text messages and missed calls were sent by Huo Tingrui and Huo Xiang.

The two of them were waiting for her at the airport.

Huo Yao replied to a text before she headed towards the arrival gate with her luggage.

Before long, Huo Yao got past the checkpoint and spotted Huo Tingrui right away. She quickly headed towards him.

“Brother Tingrui.”

He took her luggage and the big paper bag from her hand. He said with concern, “You must be exhausted.”

“I’m good.” Huo Yao raised her brow and looked around before asking him. “Where’s Brother Xiang? Didn’t he come with you?”

The moment Huo Yao brought up Huo Xiang’s name, his face went dark. He replied angrily. “That dumbass is waiting in the car.”

Huo Yao’s lips twitched. She could sense that Huo Tingrui was peeved with Huo Xiang.

“I told him to wait at home, but he insisted on coming along. Hehe… What do you think would happen to a ‘shared boyfriend’ like him in a public place?”

Huo Tingrui gritted his teeth. At the thought of how Huo Xiang’s fans almost squashed him into minced meat, he had the impulse to beat him up.

Huo Yao glanced at Huo Tingrui quietly after he referred to Huo Xiang as a ‘boyfriend for rent’. The way he described Huo Xiang left her speechless.

Huo Yao gently cleared her throat. “Don’t be mad. Brother Xiang has a lot of fans, so it’s natural for people to recognize him.”

Huo Tingrui suddenly felt even madder when he heard Huo Yao defending him.

Ever since Huo Xiang had moved back in with them, Huo Tingrui rapidly lost the attention coming his way.

A few minutes later, they arrived at the airport’s parking lot.

Huo Tingrui saw his brother opening the door with the intention of getting out of the car. He instantly glared at him. “Are you trying to make trouble again?”

Huo Xiang’s feet instantly shrank back in when he heard Huo Tingrui’s scathing voice. Just as he was about to say something, a suitcase suddenly got shoved into the car, and he had no choice but to shift in further.

“The trunk is full!”

Huo Tingrui placed the luggage and the paper bag into the back seat expressionlessly before shutting the door with a thud.

Huo Xiang was dumbfounded. “???”

“Yao, sit in the front,” said Huo Tingrui as he opened the front passenger seat door for her.

“???”

Huo Yao slid into her seat quietly. She glanced at the back seat through the rearview mirror and shook her head helplessly when she caught sight of the stunned look on Huo Xiang’s face.

Her silly fourth older brother always got bullied.

It was already 10:00 pm when they reached home. Her parents were waiting in the living room, each holding a tube of fireworks.

Shortly after Huo Yao walked in through the door, the two of them pressed the tubes in unison. In an instant, colorful streamers and glitter burst out with a few pops.

“Congratulations, you genius.”

“Well done! Well done!”

The two of them beamed brightly as they took turns to hug their daughter.

Huo Yao was stunned by the unexpected welcome from her parents. A few streamers fell on her head. She looked at the smiles on her parents’ faces and the corners of her lips automatically curved upwards.

Reaching the living room, she took out the paper bag containing the gifts that she had bought at the airport and gave one to each of them.

“Yao, you gave Brother Tingui a fountain pen. Why did I get this?” came Huo Xiang’s stifled voice.
