1738 Rich People Should Keep A Low Profile
Huo Qing and the elders promptly turned to look at Huo Yao in unison the moment they heard the words ‘Miss Huo’.
They looked at her in surprise, scrutinizing her.
Huo Qing was especially curious about Huo Yao, far more than the elders.
After all, he specially made a trip to the Huo residence a couple of days ago, but he did not manage to see her.
Huo Qing narrowed his eyes. Despite the people present, the young woman seemed unfazed. He could not help being filled with admiration for her.
He thought she was from the countryside and erroneously assumed she probably had a timid nature. Unexpectedly, she was very composed.
The hospital president was a man in his sixties, but even he could not compare to her in terms of composure.
She was genuinely impressive.
Huo Qing turned the Buddha beads in his hand. From the looks of it, he had to investigate her carefully.
Huo Yao paid no attention to everyone’s gazes. She simply nodded to Xie and asked. “What’s going on?”
Xie glanced at Huo Yao. He thought about the chief steward’s instructions prior to leaving. After the chief steward was gone, he was to take orders from Miss Huo.
He softly told her about the elders’ request to see Master Jinfeng.
He did not specially introduce Huo Qing and the elders.
Huo Yao raised her head and glanced at Huo Qing and the elders mildly. She could tell these people did not mean well from the moment she stepped out of the lift.
They were probably here hoping to take out their opponent while he was unwell. It was a common ploy in influential families.
Huo Yao sighed inwardly. Sure enough, if rich people wanted to live a long life, they had to keep a low profile and pretend to be poor.
“Eldest Uncle needs to recuperate, so he can’t see anyone. Just do what you’re told.” Huo Yao spoke coolly without so much as greeting the elders.
By this, she meant they could do whatever it took to stop these unwanted visitors.
Xie’s eyes lit up and nodded. “Okay, Miss Huo!”
With her order, even if they beat up the elders, Master Jinfeng would not hold them accountable in the future.
“Uh huh,” acknowledged Huo Yao. She turned to continue interacting with the hospital president. “Come on. I have another treatment proposal…”
“Huh?” The hospital president promptly snapped out of his shock and followed behind Huo Yao. “Got it.”
Xie and his subordinates were standing side by side in a row, but they immediately gave way to Huo Yao and the hospital president, looking particularly reverent.
It was no different from the respect they held for Master Jinfeng.
The elders looked annoyed the moment they noticed this.
The clan had yet to acknowledge her, but they held her in greater respect than the elders. This was a resounding slap in their faces.
Never mind they threw a slap on their faces. The young woman did not even bother to show them the slightest courtesy and completely ignored them. This was simply too rude. Could she get any more arrogant?
The elders developed terrible feelings about Huo Yao.
“Stop right there! How dare you disrespect your elders? Haven’t your parents taught you any manners?” One of the elders looked cold as he stepped forward and stopped Huo Yao.
After taking a step, Xie took a step forward forcing the elder to stagger a couple of steps.
“How can you behave like this in front of us?” The elder glared at Xie angrily.
Xie felt as though he had found the support he needed and was no longer restrained. He pursed his lips and smiled. He said mildly, “Second Elder, you’re mistaken. Didn’t you hear what Miss Huo said?”
