Perhaps Shangguan Yun was not looking at his phone, so she only received a reply when Huo Yao got home.
Y: [No. It's a family secret. The elders would never mention the traitor.]
Y: [Why are you suddenly asking about this?]
Huo Yao changed into her slippers and walked into the house as she replied: [Just curious.]
Shangguan Yun knew that a certain someone was not a curious person. He contemplated before he asked: [Did something happen? Uncle Wei hasn't replied to me.]
Huo Yao poured herself a glass of water before she sat down on the couch. She did not hide the truth from him: [Old Wei is missing.]
Y: [Missing? Even you can't find him?]
Huo Yao replied with a simple "Uh huh." She pondered for a moment before she sent another text: [Do you think he's trying to lure me out?]
Y: [I don't think so. But what does this have to do with the traitor you mentioned earlier?]
Huo Yao raised her brow. This kid could be so dumb when he wanted to be, but he was so smart when he wanted to be. [It doesn't matter. I'm just worried that Old Wei might run into the traitor.]
When Shangguan Yun saw this, he felt relieved. [Don't worry, Old Wei's martial arts are not just for show.]
Huo Yao's cheeks twitched. Since she could not get any more information from Shangguan Yun, she quickly ended the WeChat conversation without saying anything else.
Huo Yao put down her phone and leaned her head against the back of the couch. She stared at the chandelier above her head quietly. No one knew what she was thinking.

At the international airport.
Yuan Hen was dressed in black and had a hoodie on his head. A black mask covered most of his face as he stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window near the security checkpoint.
A man in the same dark outfit stood in front of him.
Unlike Yuan Huan, the man did not cover himself up as tightly as he did. His handsome face was well-defined, especially his pair of azure eyes, which were penetrating but bottomless.
"You're on your own," said the man indifferently as he stood with his hands behind his back.
Yuan Hen pulled up the mask on his face, but it could not hide the viciousness in his eyes. "A woman ruined my plans for so many years. I can't accept it if I just leave like this!"
The gunshot wound in his chest, the whip wounds he suffered in the Security Bureau, and how he had been hiding like a mouse. He was constantly reminding him that he had to get revenge.
The man standing in front of Yuan Hen was unfazed by Yuan Hen's murderous aura. He merely said nonchalantly, "Idiot."
Yuan Hen lowered his eyes and clenched his fists tightly.
"I won't interfere with what you're doing. But I have to remind you that there's no need for you to come back if you don't bring the person I want back," said the man indifferently.
Yuan Hen was stunned. The viness in his earlier subsided instantly. His clenched hands broke out cold sweat when he heard the man's last sentence.
He raised his head to look at the man. He opened his mouth to speak, but the man did not give him a chance to speak. The man had already turned around and headed for the security checkpoint.
Yuan Hen's figure seemed normal as he walked away, but Yuan Hen could still sense the ruthless murderous intent. He only relaxed when the man completely disappeared from his sight.
Yuan Hen inhaled deeply and pulled down the hoodie on his head to cover his forehead. Then he quickly walked out of the airport.
He hailed a cab and told the driver, "To Tsing University."
