Yi Lianfan glanced at his mother and contemplated for a few seconds before he told her about how Wu Miao deliberately slandered him and leaked Huo Yao's information.
Mrs. Yi's face sank after she heard the whole story. She slammed the table and said, "This woman is too shameless. She shouldn't be acting like this even if she wants to apologize for her wrongdoings. "
Yi Lianfan was startled by his mother's sudden slamming of the table.
"No way. Huo Yao looks so gentle. She will surely be bullied. I have to go and check on her," said Mrs. Yi as she stood up.
Although she had only met the young woman twice, she had a good impression of her. Moreover, she was here for a meal, not to be bullied.
Yi Lianfan hurriedly reached out to grab her arm. "Mom, don't be rash. It's her private matter. It's not appropriate for you to get involved."
Although Huo Yao looked gentle, he did not think she was the kind of person who would allow herself to be bullied.
She would be lucky if she did not set him up.
"I..."
Before Mrs. Yi could say anything, the phone on the table rang.
It was Huo Yao's phone.
She had left her phone on the table while she was eating. She had forgotten to take it with her when she left.
She was sitting next to Old Mr. Yi, so he instinctively looked at the phone when it rang.
He had no intention of prying into Huo Yao's privacy. However, his eyes paused when he saw the caller's name.
Young Master Min? Old Mr. Yi narrowed his eyes.
Old Mr. Yi narrowed his eyes, still holding the teacup in his hand. After taking a sip, he put down the teacup, took out his phone from his pocket, and made a call.

Huo Yao walked out of the medicinal cuisine restaurant and stood at a secluded spot. The sky was already dark, and the street lights were turned on.
Huo Yao turned around and looked at Wu Miao and Shen Si, who was still covered up. Her eyes were cold, and her exquisite face was expressionless.
She did not speak first.
Wu Miao looked at Huo Yao. This was the first time she was looking at Huo Yao's face. Huo Yao was so beautiful that she was jealous. She clenched her fists and said, "What do you want us to do for you to let the Shen and Wu families off?"
"I don't understand what you are talking about," said Huo Yao calmly.
Wu Miao's eyes widened. "Stop pretending. My cousin's family is being bullied. Do you dare say that you didn't do anything behind her back?"
Shen Si could not help narrowing her eyes when she noticed her cousin's questioning attitude. She turned to yell at her. "Miaomiao, apologize to Miss Huo."
When Shen Si came to look for Huo Yao, she had repeatedly reminded her cousin to let go of her jealousy and show her sincerest apologies to Huo Yao.
In the end, they started again after just a few sentences.
Wu Miao instantly snapped back to reality when she heard her cousin's voice. She could not control her emotions and inhaled deeply before she bowed. "I'm sorry."
Huo Yao took a step to the side nonchalantly. She clearly did not need Wu Miao's apology.
Shen Si took off her glasses, revealing her red and swollen eyes. Although there weren't many customers coming in and out, she didn't remove her mask because of her public image.
