Nie Su had dressed up meticulously today, so she exuded a strong scholarly aura.
However, Huo Yao was stunned when she saw Nie Su's familiar face. "Auntie, you..."
Huo Yao had bumped into this woman at Min Yu's doorstep. She had said that she was looking for her son and that his name was Nie Er.
Nie Er...
Huo Yao glanced at Min Yu. It was not difficult to see the resemblance between him and Nie Su as they stood side by side.
Huo Yao's cheeks trembled slightly.
Nie Su could tell that Huo Yao still remembered her from her reaction. She coughed and said, "... Let's talk inside."
Huo Yao nodded obediently and followed behind Nie Su.
Min Yu, who had been ignored, raised his brow thoughtfully. He carried the gift box and followed behind them.
Professor Min stood up and greeted Huo Yao with a smile. "Hi, Huo Yao."
"Hi, Uncle." Huo Yao nodded slightly. Her eyes landed on the old man next to Professor Min. She paused for a second before she greeted him calmly. "Grandpa."
Although the old man was already eighty years old, his mental state was still very good, and his whole body looked ruddy.
He smiled at Huo Yao and waved at her. "Come here, my dear granddaughter. Let me take a good look at you."
Huo Yao could not help but go speechless.
The old man was at it again.
Madam Nie and Professor Min did not notice the subtle atmosphere between the old man and the young woman. They merely thought that the old man was very satisfied with his granddaughter-in-law.
The food was ready in the kitchen. Nie Su glanced at it and said, "Let's eat first. We can talk while we eat."
The group headed to the dining room.
The old man pulled Huo Yao to sit next to him. He chattered nonstop during the meal. Perhaps he was in a good mood, so he asked Professor Min to open a bottle of red wine for them.
Huo Yao drank a few glasses as well. Her fair cheeks turned slightly red, but her eyes remained clear and bright. She did not seem to be drunk at all.
The old man complained that he felt dizzy after the meal, so the servants helped him back to his room to rest.
Nie Su noticed that Huo Yao's cheeks were flushed and worried that she was drunk. She made a glass of honey water and handed it to her. "Do you feel unwell?"
Huo Yao shook her head and thanked him. She was not a good drinker, but she could handle a few glasses.
Nie Su was relieved to see that Huo Yao did not seem to be drunk. She sat down next to Huo Yao and asked her. "Oh yes. How is your thesis coming along?"
Huo Yao held the glass of water with her slender fingers. "Thank you for your guidance two days ago. I have already written an essay and submitted it."
Nie Su smiled. Her voice was very gentle. "We're family. There's no need to be so formal."
Huo Yao lowered her head and quietly drank the honey water. She looked even more obedient.
When Nie Su saw this, she clicked her tongue lightly in her heart. She really didn't know what kind of good luck her son had to actually be able to abduct such an obedient child.
The two of them chatted for a while.
Min Yu went downstairs after chatting with Professor Min. He walked into the living room and said calmly when he saw Huo Yao's face, "Mom, it's getting late. I'm taking Yaoyao home."
"So soon?" Madam Nie raised her head to look at the clock on the wall. It was 9: 00 pm. She turned to Huo Yao and said, "We have plenty of rooms here. Why don't you stay here for the night and come back tomorrow?"
Huo Yao blinked. Before she could decline, she heard Min Yu's voice.
