They did not call Elder Yi when they arrived, but the manager inside knew them, so he respectfully arranged a private room for them.
Yi Lianfan returned to City S on the second day of Tsing University's winter break. For the sake of his family's legacy, he came to the restaurant almost every day to cook.
When the manager mentioned that Huo Yao was coming for dinner, he hurriedly put down the ingredients in his hands and went to the private room.
Yi Lianfan jumped in fright the moment he saw Huo Yao. "Did you lose too much weight?"
Not only did she look pale, but her cheeks were also so skinny that there was not a speck of flesh on them.
Huo Yao glanced at Yi Lianfan and gave him a fake smile. "What's wrong? Being a chef isn't enough for you. Why do you have the energy to gossip about other things?"
Yi Lianfan went speechless. "..."
Sure enough, Huo Yao never let herself be taken advantage of.
Yi Lianfan touched the tip of his nose and glanced at Min Yu. Although Min Yu was sitting there quietly, the aura he exuded was clearly intimidating.
Yi Lianfan hurriedly veered his eyes away and asked Huo Yao what she wanted to eat. After she named a few dishes, he hurriedly ran back to the kitchen.
Huo Yao watched Yi Lianfan leave in a hurry before she turned to look at Min Yu. "You scared him."
Min Yu's hand was still holding Huo Yao's hand under the table. Now that her hand was finally warmer, he commented in a slightly disdainful tone. "He's too young. He can't keep his cool."
Huo Yao quietly veered her eyes away.
Some people probably would not be able to get over her age.

After dinner, they left the restaurant. Min Yu's phone rang a few times on the way back. He merely glanced at it without picking it up.
When the car stopped outside the Huo family's villa, Huo Yao opened the door and said to Min Yu, "Go back to the capital as soon as you can. I'm fine."
Min Yu looked at her for a moment before he nodded. "Okay."
He opened the box next to him and took out a small jewelry box. He handed it to Huo Yao.
Huo Yao's eyes landed on the jewelry box. She paused for a moment before she reached out to take it.
There was a necklace inside. It was a white jade pendant. Judging from its color and quality, it was of high quality.
"I've thought about it. Let me keep the necklace for you for a while. What do you think?" Min Yu's voice sounded again.
Huo Yao raised her head to look at Min Yu.
Min Yu's expression remained the same. "I'm afraid you'll recall the past."
"I won't." Huo Yao's eyelashes drooped, and the shadow under her eyes obscured some of the green shadows under them. Suddenly, a smile appeared on her lips.
Her grandmother told her not to be sad and to look forward.
However, Huo Yao still removed the necklace from her neck. She caressed the jade pendant with her fingertips and handed it to Min Yu without asking him anything.
Min Yu held the jade pendant tightly, but Huo Yao did not notice it.
"I'm going back," said Huo Yao before she got out of the car.
Min Yu watched as Huo Yao disappeared through the door. Then he lowered his head and opened his palm to look at the fish-shaped pendant. A moment later, he sighed softly.
