1755 Plan
Rocco halted in his steps and turned his head upon hearing the voice. When he saw the man, he frowned.
He did not expect this person to show up here.
Fan Shun walked over and bowed reverently to Rocco. His blue eyes stopped on the prince’s face. “Your Highness, how are you?”
“Mr. Fan, thank you for asking. Nothing much has changed.” Rocco looked calm and did not sound particularly chatty. At the most, he was just being polite.
Fan Shun smiled. “I have been researching a new type of drug. Your Highness might find it useful for your condition. I will send it over to you soon.”
An imperceptible look of annoyance swept across Rocco’s face.
Rocco raised his head. As he walked into the hall, he turned down the offer tactfully. “No, thanks. I’ve been taking Chinese medicine recently. I have no intention of trying any other medicine.”
Fan Shun seemed unsurprised by Rocco’s reaction. He simply responded vaguely. “When you change your mind, you can let me know anytime.”
Rocco pursed his lips and said nothing.
Lots of people were in the hall. Considering Rocco’s identity, it was inappropriate for him to show up here. Count Kerr’s subordinate quickly showed Rocco to the side hall which was specially prepared for him.
Fan Shun raised his brow. He slowly walked into the crowd in the banquet hall and took a glass of champagne from the table by the side. He casually glanced at the guests at the banquet.
In the end, his eyes landed on a young man and young woman surrounded by four to five people on the left up ahead, especially the young woman.
Despite the distance, she gave off an unignorable noble aura and looked particularly captivating.
Fan Shun took a sip of the wine from his glass calmly.
His assistant strode in hurriedly and spoke softly.
Fan Shun veered his eyes slowly. Light from the chandelier up above fell on his cool fair face, making his handsome features look even more gorgeous.
Fan Shun placed the wine glass on the table and parted his lips. “Stick to the plan.”

A while after Huo Yulin and Huo Yao arrived, people from the other clans recognized Huo Yulin.
Even though everyone was astonished that someone from the Huo family would appear at the banquet, it did not stop them from trying to get close to them.
In just a matter of minutes, people kept coming over to make small talk with Huo Yulin and Huo Yao. Naturally, some of them were very curious about Huo Yao’s identity.
Huo Yulin did not like socializing, so he felt annoyed by the people around them. Also, he did not like the way they were looking at his little sister.
Huo Yulin said a few words to Huo Yao and walked off.
The moment he left, the guests wanting to talk to the people from the Huo family naturally stopped trying to approach Huo Yao.
Huo Yao watched as her brother forcibly went out to socialize against his will. She raised her brow.
He was the best brother on earth!
Now that everyone was gone, she headed to a quieter area.
A waiter working at the residence asked Huo Yao courteously. “Miss, would you like some juice or a cocktail?”
Huo Yao looked at the colorful drinks on the tray and extended her hand to pick a blue-colored cocktail. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” The waiter nodded politely and quickly walked off.
Huo Yao took the glass and gently swayed it. Just as she was about to take a sip, someone reached his hand out and took the glass from her.
