How could Huo Yao not know the old lady's favorite trick to hide her emotions?
Huo Yao casually played with a strand of half-dry hair that fell over her shoulder and said nonchalantly, "You're quite capable now. How dare you sneak back to your hometown without telling me."
The old lady was a little frightened. She smiled sheepishly and said, "I wasn't alone. Mr. Min got someone to send me back."
Huo Yao sneered softly. "How long have you known him? What if he cheats on you? Where am I supposed to find another grandmother?"
The old lady felt a lump in her throat. She suppressed the pain and said softly, "I know Min is a good person."
"Don't leave a note and run away again. Just tell me where you want to go. Do you think I will stop you?"
Huo Yao's eyes narrowed slightly before she said in the most serious voice she had ever heard. "With me around, no one will ever force you to live in a place you don't like."
Huo Yao knew that He Xiaoman had always wanted to move the old lady to the city, but the old lady was unwilling. If it were not for the fact that she was going back to the Huo family, the old lady would not have given in.
At the end of the day, it was her own selfishness that caused her to live in an unhappy city.
Huo Yao wanted to take care of the old lady on behalf of the original owner of this body, but she neglected to consider whether the old lady was willing to do so.
The old lady choked with sobs and said, "If Xiaoman makes things difficult for you again, you don't have to care about me. Do whatever you want. Don't let yourself be wronged."
Huo Yao replied calmly. "So the reason why you are so depressed is because you think too much."
The old lady was afraid that she would feel worse if she continued, so she hurriedly said, "Fine, fine. It's getting late. I'm going to bed."
She hung up the phone without waiting for Huo Yao to say goodnight.
Huo Yao laughed and shook her head when she heard the beeping sound from the phone. She put the phone down and picked up the hairdryer to blow her hair dry.
Before long, someone knocked on the door.
Huo Yao had just dried her hair and combed it before she walked to the door.
"Brother Tingrui?"
Huo Tingrui placed his hands behind his back. After removing his rimless glasses, he looked more refined. He pursed his lips into a faint smile and asked her. "You haven't had dinner yet, have you?"
Huo Yao looked surprised. "Uh huh."
Huo Tingrui turned sideways and raised his chin slightly to look at the staircase. "Let's go. I'll cook something for you." After pausing for two seconds, he added, "Big Brother has already left. You don't have to worry about it being awkward."
Huo Yao did not argue. "Thank you, Brother Tingrui."
The two of them went downstairs one after another. It was almost 10: 00 pm, and they had already returned to their room.
Huo Tingrui rolled up the sleeves of his pajamas and opened the fridge to look around. There was nothing but an egg and a tomato. He could not help touching his nose. Then he turned to look at Huo Yao and said helplessly, "There's nothing else. Do you want tomato and egg noodles?"
"Sure, I'm not a picky eater."
“OK。” Huo Tingrui nodded and took out eggs and tomatoes from the fridge. "Go sit in the living room for a while. I'll be done in no time."
