Zhuo Yun paused for a moment before he asked her. "Do you know about the Cloud Realm?"
"Yes, I have." Huo Yao nodded and got out of the car without further explanation.
Zhuo Yun watched Huo Yao leave through the car window. He only veered his curious gaze away when she finally disappeared into the villa.
It never crossed his mind that she knew about the Cloud Realm.
No wonder Huo Yao was not the least bit curious when he mentioned the Cloud Realm to Yu.
Zhuo Yun gathered his thoughts before he started the car again and left.

The next day, Huo Yao received a message from Cheng Ming. Huo Yulin had returned from the overseas conference.
They did not head straight home after leaving the airport. Instead, they drove to the university to pick her up and go together.
After they got into the car, Huo Yao turned to look at Huo Yulin and asked him. "Brother Yulin, are you finally done with work?"
Huo Yulin's face was pale even though he had been recovering for more than a week. However, his skin had always been slightly pale, so people who didn't know the inside story wouldn't be able to see anything wrong with it.
Huo Yulin nodded and leaned against the seat. "Uh huh. I told you two days ago that I was sent to the overseas conference. It's almost over."
Huo Yao went along with his act. "You don't look too well. Since you are done, why don't you get some rest at home?"
"Okay." Huo Yulin lowered his eyelids and relaxed his grip on the car door.
Cheng Ming glanced at the siblings in the rearview mirror. One was acting while the other was acting. The Oscars should have awarded them two Oscars.
Before long, Huo Yulin's phone rang in his pocket.
It was from the research institute. Huo Yulin's eyes narrowed before he picked up the call.
"... Yes. Now? Sure. I'll be right there. "
Huo Yulin hung up the phone. His mind raced. He put his phone away and turned to look at Huo Yao. "Yao, I have to go back to the research institute. I'll get Uncle Cheng to take you home."
Then he asked Cheng Ming to stop the car by the side of the road and get out to hail a cab.
Huo Yao frowned imperceptibly before she said, "I don't have anything to do anyway. I can go home after I drop you off."
Cheng Ming immediately chimed in. "Miss Huo is right. It's only half an hour from here, so it's convenient."
Huo Yulin glanced at the driver's seat. He knew that Uncle Cheng Ming was worried about his health. After some thought, he did not reject the offer. "Sure."
"Brother Yulin, didn't you just come back? Why are you going back to the research institute now?" asked Huo Yao curiously as she placed her hand on the car door frame.
Huo Yulin recalled what the chief had mentioned over the phone and said, "There's an experimental surgery that needs my help."
Huo Yao frowned again when she heard this.
If it was just a simple matter, her third brother's body would be fine. However, when it came to a surgery that required a certain amount of mental and physical strength …
Based on his current situation, he could only hold on for half an hour at most while performing surgery. If the surgery dragged on, the wound that had just healed would probably burst open again.
Once the wound burst open, he would be exposed and his life would be in danger. If that happened, even the gods would not be able to save him.
Huo Yao felt a headache coming on. She said in a serious tone, "You just came back from abroad. How can you still have the energy to perform an experimental surgery?"
