The old lady smiled bitterly when Min Yu did not respond. She continued to speak. "This morning, Yaoyao bought a lot of things and came to see me. She didn't expect to bump into her foster mother … My daughter is mean and doesn't like Yaoyao."
"My daughter said a lot of nasty things, so that child didn't even stay here for an hour before he was angered by my daughter and left."
"She must be mad at me. That's why she didn't come."
The old lady's eyes turned red. She grabbed Min Yu's arm and refused to let go. It was as though the only person in the house who could listen to her would leave if she let go.
Min Yu looked at the old lady who was blaming herself. He roughly understood what had happened. No wonder Huo Yao had asked him to deliver the gifts.
However, Huo Yao was young and mature. Did she look like someone who could be easily angered?
Min Yu waited for the old lady to calm down before he said slowly, "Don't overthink it. Huo Yao was probably worried that she would bump into your daughter again, so she asked me to bring these gifts for you."
The old lady was taken aback. "Re- really?"
Min Yu nodded. He had a cold aura, and his deep eyes had an inexplicable power that made people believe in him.
The old lady was initially anxious and upset, but strangely, she calmed down. Her eyes landed on the wooden box that Min Yu had placed on the coffee table.
Then she stood up and walked over to pick up the wooden box. She did not care that Min Yu was still standing beside her. She gently pressed the button on the side and looked at the incense inside. A warm smile instinctively surfaced on her face.
Her granddaughter did not abandon her, so she cared about her health.
She could tell that Huo Yao was having trouble sleeping, so she asked someone to bring her the nerve-soothing incense even though she had been wronged.
The old lady wiped the corners of her eyes and closed the box. She turned to look at Min Yu with a slightly embarrassed look in her eyes. "I forgot my manners earlier. Sorry for embarrassing myself."
Min Yu's eyes were still on the wooden box in the old lady's hands. He paused for a second before he averted his eyes. "It's okay. I understand."
"Yaoyao is such a good girl. She bought me nerve-soothing incense when she noticed that I was having trouble sleeping... Sigh. My daughter doesn't have the fortune to be her mother."
The old lady sighed deeply. She turned around and hobbled over to the cabinet. She slowly opened the drawer and placed the wooden box inside.
Min Yu listened to the old lady's nagging calmly. His eyes were deep, and no one could tell what he was thinking.

Min Yu left Yang Qiuhua's house half an hour later.
Zhuo Yun saw that his face looked a little gloomy after he got in the car. He couldn't help asking in confusion, "What happened?"
Min Yu composed himself and raised his head to glance at him nonchalantly. "Nothing." His tone was indifferent.
Seeing this, Zhuo Yun didn't ask any more questions.
Min Yu's eyes flickered as he tapped his fingers on his knee. A thought struck him. He took out his phone and texted Huo Yao that the items had been delivered.
Perhaps it was because the other party did not look at his phone. After about ten minutes, he received a simple "Thank you" reply. It was very simple, without any extra words of small talk.
