After dinner, Huo Yao watched TV in the living room for a while. Just as she was about to head upstairs, her phone rang.
When she saw that it was Min Yu, she quickly answered the call.
"Come out now." Min Yu leaned against the car door and looked at the villa's entrance. His black coat made him look cold and aloof.
There were several paper bags at his feet.
Huo Yao did not ask what was going on. She replied, "Okay." Then she hung up and headed for the door.
Not long after.
Huo Yao walked up to Min Yu and looked at him. "What is it?"
Min Yu picked up the paper bags by his feet and handed them to her. "These are gifts for your uncle and aunt."
Huo Yao raised her brow. "Why are you being so polite?"
"I have no choice. If I want to marry their daughter, I have to make a good impression on them," sighed Min Yu.
"... You are getting more and more shameless."
Min Yu stuffed the string of the paper bag into Huo Yao's hands and held her hand without letting go. "Otherwise, how are we supposed to turn it around?"
Huo Yao was already used to people's sudden movements. She stood there quietly for two minutes before she turned to look at the door. "I'm going back."
Min Yu squeezed her hand. "Okay."
"Uh huh." Huo Yao went into the villa with her things.
Min Yu waited until she was out of sight before he turned around and got into his car.

The next day.
Huo Yao went to the airport to send Huo Tingrui off.
"Brother Tingrui will open a branch office in the capital next year," said Huo Tingrui as he looked at Huo Yao.
Huo Yao's lips twitched. She thought he was joking. "Oh yes. Uncle Changfeng has arranged a coach for you. Go home and work out."
The smile on Huo Tingrui's face froze. He thought his little sister was joking. "I refuse."
Huo Yao raised her brow. "Tell Uncle Changfeng about this and see if he agrees."
Huo Tingrui's face twitched. Was there a need to ask?
Even if he asked, he wouldn't agree.
Huo Yao looked at the time and said, "Brother Tingrui, hurry up and go through the security check. Text me when you get home."
Huo Tingrui sighed. "Sure. Call me if you need anything."
Huo Yao nodded. "Have a safe trip."
Huo Tingrui waved his hand and headed to the security checkpoint with his assistant.
Huo Yao stood outside and watched them go in before turning to leave.
Cheng Ming was waiting by the car door in the parking lot. When he saw Huo Yao, he walked over and opened the door.
Huo Yao contemplated for a moment before she got into the car. She paused and looked at Cheng Ming. "Uncle Cheng, can you 'hire' a few skilled bodyguards for Tingrui after he goes home?"
When Cheng Ming heard this, he immediately understood what the Eldest Miss was worried about. He nodded and said, "Alright, I will arrange it."
Huo Yao acknowledged him. "Thank you, Uncle Cheng."
Cheng Ming scratched his head and smiled foolishly, "You don't have to be so polite, Miss. It's what I should do."
Huo Yao smiled and got into the car.

Huo Yao went back to her room, turned on her computer, and logged into Cloud Realm's website.
The mercenary mission that she had posted a while ago had already been accepted. Today was the day to complete the transaction and pay the final payment.
As soon as she transferred the money to the other party's account, the other party couldn't help but ask her in a private message, "Why didn't you do it yourself?"
Huo Yao leaned against the chair as her fair fingers landed on the keyboard. After some time, she typed a reply. [I have money and want to spend it elsewhere.]
The lips of the mercenaries twitched violently. Wasn't this clearly showing off his wealth?
