After Huo Yao left Lei Xiao's place, she went straight back to the estate.
She was in a bad mood after spending the entire afternoon analyzing the medicine. She seemed to be in low spirits.
Huo Yulin could not help asking in surprise when he saw his little sister's depressed look the moment she entered the house. "What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood? "
Huo Yao raised her hand and waved. She removed her bag and placed it on the cabinet before she sat down on the couch weakly. Then she picked up a pillow and hugged it to her chest.
Huo Yulin poured her a cup of hot water and placed it on the coffee table before he sat down. "What happened?"
Huo Yao tightened her arms around the pillow and rested her exquisite chin on it lazily. She tilted her head and looked at Huo Yulin with a blank look in her eyes. "Brother Yulin, what do you think is the meaning of human existence?"
Huo Yulin was stunned. He had never expected his little sister to ask such a question. He went quiet for a moment before he said, "Just stay alive."
Huo Yao blinked and paused for a few seconds. Then she suddenly smiled and the gloomy look on her face disappeared.
Yes. Staying alive was the only meaning of human existence.
Since some people could not avoid it, there was no point in deliberately avoiding it.
Huo Yulin noticed that Huo Yao's expression had returned to normal, so he did not probe further. Instead, he raised his hand and caressed her head. "Don't overthink it. I will always be here. You will always have our back."
"Uh huh," acknowledged Huo Yulin softly. Then she sat up straight and said, "Brother Yulin, have you made dinner? I'm hungry. "
Huo Yulin's lips twitched. "I ordered takeout. It should be here soon."
Huo Yao nodded and sat back on the couch lazily. Her eyes swept over the laptop on the coffee table. There was a program on the screen.
The program was only halfway done. It must have gotten stuck and a few steps were wrong.
Huo Yao's fingers twitched. Her OCD was acting up.
At this moment, the doorbell rang.
Huo Yulin did not notice Huo Yao's expression. He stood up and said, "Dinner should be here."
Huo Yao watched Huo Yulin disappear at the door before she veered her eyes. She clutched the pillow in her arms and rubbed it. In the end, she could not help but pick up the laptop.
When Huo Yulin came back with dinner, Huo Yao was still lying lazily on the couch, so he called her over for dinner.
After dinner, Huo Yao went upstairs.
After Huo Yulin cleaned up, he poured a glass of water and went to the living room. He picked up the laptop on the coffee table and was stunned when he saw the code in the program.
The second half of the program had been modified. It was not the same idea as before, but it was much clearer and more useful than before.
Huo Yulin's fingers paused on the keyboard. A thought crossed his mind, and he suddenly looked up at the second floor.
After a long time, he chuckled and withdrew his gaze.

The next day.
Huo Yao woke up early. She put on her sportswear and went downstairs.
It was already early winter, so the temperature was low in the morning. The moment Huo Yao stepped out of the door, she was hit by a gust of cold wind. Huo Yao's face turned even paler. She rubbed her fingers together and exhaled.
Winter in the capital was indeed colder than in S City.
Huo Yao clicked her tongue. She walked to the entrance and opened the door. After taking a few steps, she saw someone standing at the intersection not far away. Her feet seemed to have been glued to the spot and she could not move them no matter how hard she tried.
Huo Yao raised her hand to wipe her face. She realized that she had been embarrassed more and more recently, which was not a good sign.
