Huo Tingrui collected his thoughts and continued chatting with the old lady.
Perhaps it was because Huo Tingrui was not as bad as her daughter had described him to be, and he was very polite, Yang Qiuhua suddenly became a chatterbox and could not stop talking to him.
Of course, most of their conversation revolved around Huo Yao. They talked about their childhood and middle school years, and the more they talked, the more enthusiastic they became.
Huo Yao could not help holding her forehead and standing up when she noticed that one of them was engrossed in their conversation. "I'm going to the bathroom."
Soon after she left, the old lady looked at Huo Tingrui with a serious look in her eyes. "Please take good care of Yaoyao from now on. She has never received much love from her parents. I can tell that she is doing well now that she is back with her birth parents."
The old lady's voice sounded both relieved and sad. Her face seemed to be shrouded in melancholy.
Huo Tingrui instinctively frowned. He felt that the old lady's words sounded a little strange. It was as though she was saying goodbye.
He contemplated for two seconds before he said, "Yaoyao loves you very much. Even though she is back with us, you will always be the closest family to her."
The old lady's eyes filled with warmth. Her Yaoyao was the best granddaughter in the world.
"Take good care of yourself. Don't think too much," comforted Huo Tingrui.
The old lady smiled to show that she understood.
Before long, Huo Yao came back.
The old lady looked out of the window at the darkening sky and started to chase them away. "It's getting late. Yaoyao, go home with Tingrui. The doctors and nurses are taking care of me, so you don't have to keep me company. You should go back early to study."
Huo Yao raised her hand to look at the time. "Why don't I keep you company a little longer?"
The old lady lay back on the bed and pulled the blanket over her. "No, no. Hurry up and go home. I'm tired and want to sleep."
Huo Yao sighed helplessly when she saw that the old lady was really going to sleep. She walked up and gently tucked the old lady in. "Take good care of yourself. I'll visit you after school tomorrow."
The old lady acknowledged her gently.
Huo Yao had just taken two steps when she suddenly turned around and said, "Oh yes, I forgot to tell you that I'm participating in another competition. I will bring you an international trophy soon."
"Alright, alright, I know you're powerful. Hurry up and go. Don't be so long-winded. You're even more long-winded than an old woman like me." The old lady's voice was muffled. After that, she deliberately turned her body sideways.
Huo Yao touched her nose innocently as this was the first time she had been given the cold shoulder. Then she quietly walked out of the ward.
Hearing the sound of the door closing, the old lady, whose back was facing the door, suddenly turned around. She looked at the door with her red eyes, and there was too much reluctance and sadness in her eyes.
After a long time, she sniffled and slowly took out her phone from under the pillow with trembling hands.

Lu Xia asked the chauffeur to follow Huo Tingrui's car all the way to the hospital. When she saw Huo Tingrui getting out of the car, her heart sank.
Yesterday, she had been brushed off by her second older brother. She only told herself that his attitude had changed because of Huo Yao.
