Shangguan Yun covered his face and turned sideways to look at Huo Yao's phone screen. All he saw was loneliness.
"Did you really send the photo to Aunt Tong?"
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Huo Yao took her phone and sat down on the chair in front of the French windows.
Hearing this, Shangguan Yun hurriedly turned on his phone's camera. When he saw the dark shadows around his eyes, he immediately looked like he had nothing left to live for. "It's over, it's over … I'm no longer the most handsome boy in Aunt Tong's eyes."
Huo Yao: "..."
How could there be such a shameless person in the world?
Huo Yao ignored the youngster's wails and leaned back lazily.
There was indeed a picture that had been sent on the WeChat chat interface of her mobile phone, but it was not the one that had just been taken of Shangguan Yun.
Within a minute, she received a reply.
Tong: [Did the method I gave you fail?]
Shangguan Tong had been holding back from texting Huo Yao for the past two days because she was afraid that Huo Yao would sense something was amiss. She was also afraid that Huo Yao would find it unacceptable if she asked.
Shangguan Tong's hands trembled when she saw the photo Huo Yao sent.
She had never expected to see Huo Jingfeng again in such a manner.
It had been fifteen years. The long years had tempered his appearance to become more and more reserved. His quiet appearance made it hard for people to associate him with the decisive and murderous man from all those years ago, but … he was slowly fusing with the person in her memory.
Shangguan Tong raised her head and tried her best to suppress the haziness in her eyes.
Huo Yao sent her a message: [It's not a failure. My uncle just has no desire to live.]
Tong: [What do you mean by no desire to live?]
Wasn't he the most responsible person?
The Huo family was such a big family. How could he not have the desire to live?
Huo Yao contemplated before she typed a reply: [Once a person's heart is dead and there's nothing supporting him to live on, even a deity can't save him.]
Shangguan Tong's face turned pale. She recalled Huo Jingfeng's personality and suddenly felt a sharp pain in her heart.
There were some things that she did not dare to think about. But once they fermented, it was enough to shake the decision she had made for so many years.
Shang Guantong clicked on the photo again and touched the screen lightly with his finger, as if he could touch the person in it by doing so.
Yu 'er had asked her if she had any regrets.
She was tempted to say that she did.
But at this moment, she suddenly didn't want this kind of regret.
Shangguan Tong took a deep breath and did not reply to the message. He put away his phone and turned to enter his room.
She looked around and finally walked to the dressing table. She reached out and pressed a secret compartment on the side. A small drawer immediately popped out.
There was a key in the drawer.
Shangguan Tong's gaze paused for a moment. Without hesitation, he took out the key.
He left the room and went to the room at the end of the corridor on his right.
The wooden door was locked, and there was a thick layer of dust on the lock. It was obvious that no one had been here for a long time.
Shangguan Tong quickly opened the door with the key in his hand and stepped in.
A few minutes later, she walked out of the house with a few things in her hands.
Just as he locked the door again, a voice came from behind him.
"You're going out?"
Shangguan Tong raised his head and turned around to look at the person who spoke. "I have something very important to do. I have to go out."
The person who spoke was none other than Shangguan Wei. He looked at the thing in Shangguan Tong's hand and felt a little relieved.
