1768 Missed The Chance To Make A Hundred Million Haul
Fan Shun simply smiled with intrigue. “If it were that easy to get the girl, Shangguan Hou would not have failed so badly.”
The assistant’s eyes opened wide. “Do you mean to say that the secret guards die under the girl’s hands?”
“Maybe.” Fan Shun looked outside the car window and instructed. “Drive.”
He always had a thing for challenges.
Fan Shun closed his eyes again. His handsome face looked completely harmless.
The assistant did not continue with the subject.

Meanwhile, in the car.
Huo Yao played with the pin in her hand. When she encountered Rocco, she had removed the pin.
Huo Yao tilted her head sideways. She looked at her third older brother who had not said a word ever since he got into the car. She cleared her throat and said voluntarily, “Brother Yulin, if you have any questions, just go ahead and ask.”
She was terrified of this silence!
Huo Yulin glanced at his younger sister. “What’s up with Rocco?”
“Rocco? Who’s that?” Huo Yao was at a loss. She had never heard the name previously.
Huo Yulin explained. “That was Countess Kerr’s nephew. The man you told me to release is the heir to the crown.”
Huo Yao promptly realized whom he was talking about. “The heir to the throne? Really?”
Why did she have a feeling that she had missed the chance to make a hundred million haul?
Huo Yulin said, “That’s beside the point.”
“The count’s maid locked me in a room. That guy let me out.” Huo Yao did not bring up the super assassins.
Huo Yulin frowned after hearing this.
The Huo family did interact with the royalty. He also knew Rocco and Count Kerr were very close. Why would Rocco release Huo Yao from the room?
Huo Yulin paused and said deeply, “Rocco and the count are very close. He might have other intentions for helping you.”
He paused for a moment and continued. “No matter his real intentions, it’s true that he helped us today. I will make arrangements and send him a gift to show our thanks.”
Huo Yao touched her nose. “You don’t have to.”
Huo Yulin glanced at her. “Why not?”
“Brother Yulin, didn’t you say he’s close to the count? I think it’s not right to send him a gift,” said Huo Yao with a serious look on her face.
After all, the acupuncture treatment she had performed on Rocco was good enough a gift many times over.
“Well, that’s true.” Huo Yulin always listened to his little sister, so he promptly changed his mind.
Huo Yao’s phone rang. As she retrieved her phone, she could hear Huo Yulin. “Are you going to tell me now? Why did you suddenly take interest in the banquet and want to come here?”
Huo Yao’s phone nearly slipped to the ground as she went quiet.
Sometimes, it was not good to be so smart!
Huo Yao cleared her throat. “Brother Yulin, hang on. I need to answer the phone.”
She turned her head to look out of the window as she answered the phone.
Huo Yulin was quiet.
He had a feeling that his little sister was trying to avoid the subject again.
A minute later, Huo Yulin had proven himself right.
“Brother Yulin, just let me get off at the junction. Min Yu wants to see me.” Huo Yao put on a serious face and told him.
Huo Yulin quietly looked at his little sister. Moments later, he raised his hand at the chauffeur.
“I hope you’re ready to explain the matter when you get back.”
Huo Yao could hear his voice coming from behind as she got out of the car.
She nearly stumbled.
When did Brother Yulin become this way?
Huo Yao closed the car door expressionlessly.
She suddenly missed her older brother who used to be quiet and unsociable.
