Huo Yao picked up her phone and scrolled through Big Brother's messages.
Unknown Person: [Damn it, kid. How dare you hack my phone in the middle of the night???]
Unknown Person: [How did my phone offend you?]
Unknown Person: [How did you hack my computer and phone? Are you interested in me? But I'm not gay. Thank you!]
Huo Yao's lips twitched. She tapped on the screen with her finger and said: [Oh, I got a new computer. Let me try it out.]
Unknown Person: [... Please be a better person!]
Huo Yao did not reply. Her eyes landed on the computer and she sat there quietly for a while. Then she placed her phone on the table and picked up the velvet box next to it.
The box was clearly used to store jewelry.
Huo Yao hesitated for two seconds before she opened the box. There was a diamond bracelet inside. The design was simple, low-key, and not fancy. It was suitable for a young girl.
Huo Yao took out the bracelet and glanced at it. Just as she was about to put it back in the box, the buckle caught her attention.
She brought it closer and scrutinized it. After some time, a playful look appeared on Huo Yao's face.
The bracelet was equipped with a GPS device.
It was not used to track someone. Instead, it could be used to save someone at a critical moment.
Huo Yao's eldest uncle had given her such a gift. She suddenly felt curious about who he was.
After all, ordinary people would not know how to store such an expensive item.
Huo Yao put the bracelet back in the box and pondered what she should give him in return for such an expensive gift.
But she seemed to have heard that her mysterious eldest uncle was in poor health.
It would be easier if he was in poor health. After all, she was a specialist in treating all kinds of ailments.
Huo Yao tapped her fingers on the table. She got up and lay down on the bed without thinking further.
The next day.
As usual, Huo Yao woke up early to go for a jog.
She saw Huo Yulin up when she went downstairs. She walked over to him in surprise. "Brother Yulin, you're up so early?"
Huo Yao noticed that he looked haggard when she got closer. It was obvious that he had not rested well.
She frowned.
Huo Yulin was holding a glass of warm water in one hand. When he saw his little sister walking over, he clenched his other hand into a fist and held the medicine by his side.
"I'm still adjusting to the time difference," said Huo Yulin.
Huo Yao lowered her eyes and inadvertently glanced at his right hand. She quickly raised her head nonchalantly and asked him. "Did you light the incense before you went to bed last night?"
It was precisely because he couldn't fall asleep even after burning the incense that he wanted to take some more sleeping pills.
Huo Yulin shook his head and replied, "I forgot."
Huo Yao did not expose him. She contemplated for two seconds before she raised her hand to look at the time. She decided not to go jogging today and said, "Why don't I give you some acupuncture?"
"Hmm?" Huo Yulin looked at her in surprise. "Acupuncture?"
Huo Yao nodded and replied with a straight face. "I learned some acupuncture from an old Chinese medicine practitioner in the countryside. I think I'm pretty good at it. Let me do it for you. I'm sure you'll have a good night's sleep tonight."
Huo Yulin was silent for a few seconds. In the end, he could not resist the temptation of having a good night's sleep. He coughed and said, "I hope I'm not wasting your time."
Huo Yao waved her hand. "No. It's still early."
"Okay then."
Before long, Huo Yulin followed Huo Yao upstairs.
