Yang Qiuhua raised the phone in front of her. "Yaoyao, hold on. Let me find a chair."
As she spoke, she raised her head and looked around as she walked.
"Uh huh," acknowledged Huo Yao softly. She glanced at the background behind the old lady and asked her. "Did you go to the park by the river?"
"Uh huh. I came out to do some shopping." The old lady was windy, so her voice was a little whistling. The screen swayed a little, and she was clearly in a hurry to leave.
Huo Yao pressed her forehead and said, "Don't rush. Take your time."
Although the old lady agreed, she did not stop walking. After a while, she finally found a public chair and sat down while panting heavily. "I'm getting old. I get tired after walking for a while."
Huo Yao raised her brow and said, "You look pretty energetic."
The old lady grinned. "Of course. I have my granddaughter's medicine. How can I not be energetic?"
"Wow. You've learned how to talk." Huo Yao pushed her bangs to the side and revealed her exquisite forehead.
The old lady looked at her granddaughter on the screen with tears welling up in her eyes. They had only been apart for a few months, but it felt like a long time had passed. Although they often video-called, she could not get enough of it.
The old lady looked at her granddaughter quietly for two minutes before she said, "Yaoyao is already a pretty girl."
"Are you saying that I wasn't pretty in the past?" asked Huo Yao narcissistically.
The old lady was speechless.
Huo Xiang rolled his eyes at his little sister as he listened quietly. She was so thick-skinned that she could not even let the old lady off.
Huo Yao was reminded of her little princess. She switched the camera to the back and pointed it at him. "Grandma, this is my fourth older brother. Isn't he pretty?"
Huo Xiang was suddenly cued. "Yes."
Huo Xiang instantly straightened his back and greeted the old lady who had raised his little sister. "Hi, Grandma. I'm Huo Xiang. I'm Yaoyao's fourth older brother."
The old lady looked at Huo Xiang's face. He looked exactly like her granddaughter, so she instinctively replied to Huo Yao. "Yes, he is."
Huo Xiang could no longer keep the smile on his face when he heard this.
The old lady said a few words to Huo Xiang. Before long, Huo Yao switched back to the camera, and only the old lady and granddaughter were left on the screen.
Huo Yao rolled down the car window to let in the cool breeze. She gathered her coat and chatted with Huo Yao for a while. Then she noticed Huo Yao's expression and narrowed her eyes thoughtfully before she asked her. "Is there something you want to tell me?"
The old lady turned her head away from the camera before looking back at the camera. "No, I just missed you, so I gave you a call."
Huo Yao raised her brow and exposed him. "Do you think I can't tell?"
Grandma Bai touched the tip of her nose. She recalled Xiaoman's call in the afternoon and shook her head. "I really didn't."
Huo Yao thought about Lu Ziming's text in the afternoon and said, "What did the Lu family say to you? Or did they ask you to pass a message to me? "
The old lady always knew that her granddaughter was very smart, and nothing could be hidden from her. After thinking about it, she said it directly.
Her daughter did not say much when she called today. She only mentioned that she wanted to mend her relationship with her foster daughter and asked Huo Yao to ease the tension between them.
She would not have made the call if it was purely to mend their relationship. However, she was worried because she knew her daughter's temperament.
