Chapter 205: Speechless

At this moment, Huo Peng also felt a little ashamed. He did not dare to look Huo Tao and Chen Man in the eye. He lowered his head and stared at his shoe that was faintly exposed under his pants.

“Sister-in-law, I just think that this Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb is more useful in our hands than in this girl’s. With it, our Huo family’s status and reputation in Beijing will definitely improve!” Huo Lian bit her lip and gently retorted Chen Man.

“Heh, it’s just a herb. How can it have anything to do with the Huo family’s status in Beijing? You really can say anything to get the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb.”

Chen Man sneered coldly. “The Huo family doesn’t have anyone who knows medicine. There’s no point in keeping this medicine. In my opinion, there’s no need to fight over it.”

When Huo Lian heard Chen Man’s words, she immediately frowned unhappily and started provoking her, “Sister-in-law, aren’t you openly biased towards that girl? We’re talking about the ownership of the spirit medicine now. What does it have to do with the Huo family knowing medicine or not?”

Chen Man returned to her seat and looked up at Huo Lian. She explained with a disdainful expression, “Do you know why so many noble families in Beijing have taken a liking to the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb? It’s because it is an excellent herb catalyst for refining pills. The medicine refined using it as the catalyst can solve many difficult illnesses, so everyone is fighting to get it to treat and save people.”

Before Chen Man could finish, Huo Lian caught the main point in her words and quickly explained, “Isn’t Dad poisoned by the Heart-Devouring Poison? Isn’t it better to leave it behind to cure the poison in Dad’s body?”

“Haha, Dad’s illness has been cured by the doctor Xuan’er brought over. Don’t tell me you don’t know about this?” Chen Man glared at Huo Lian with a faint smile and said mockingly.

“That’s true. I’m busy socializing every day, so I naturally won’t take such a small matter at home to heart. However, I heard that Old Master Shen has recently been diagnosed with hemiplegia and has no choice but to lie in bed every day for treatment. I wonder if you’re so eager to get the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb because you want to use it to fawn on your nominal good sister from the Shen family.”

When Huo Lian heard this, she lowered her head guiltily and didn’t dare to speak. She didn’t expect Chen Man to find out about this.

Old Master Shen did suffer from hemiplegia some time ago, and the divine doctor who was invited last week happened to mention that the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb that the Gao family was auctioning today had the effect of treating hemiplegia. In order to curry favor with the Shen family, she had spent a lot of effort to get an admission ticket to the auction through Huo Peng.

Unexpectedly, when she arrived at the venue, she realized that almost all the big families had come. In front of the capital of hundreds of billions, her little money was not presentable at all. She could only wait for the auction to end before thinking of another idea.

Therefore, when she heard that the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb had been won by Huo Xuan, she left the auction happily. She didn’t even return home and drove straight to the Huo residence. She had guarded there and waited for Huo Xuan and Mo Zhu to return so she could ask for the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb. For this, she had specially asked Huo Peng to come and support her.

Huo Lian lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. She put on a wronged expression and said with a helpless expression, “Sister-in-law, since you already know, I won’t hide it. I do have a reason for wanting the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb.”

After a pause, afraid that Chen Man would see through her selfishness, Huo Lian avoided the main point and explained, “Sister-in-law, Old Master Shen’s illness is getting worse. As long as we give the spirit medicine to the Shen family as a gift, they will definitely help us more in Beijing in the future.”

Huo Lian carefully looked up at Chen Man.. “Sister-in-law, don’t you want the Huo family to develop better in the future?”
