Huo Tingrui coughed. "Of course we're going to take legal action. Have you forgotten that your brother is a lawyer?"
"Oh..." replied Huo Yao. She clearly did not believe him.
Shen Si and Wu Miao wouldn't have come to look for her and asked her to let them off if they wanted to take legal action. Was Huo Tingrui bullying her for not studying the law?
Huo Tingrui glanced at her. "Yao, what do you mean by 'oh'?"
Huo Yao nodded and forced herself to think of words to compliment him. "Brother Tingrui, you are amazing!"
Huo Tingrui felt that he was being discriminated against. "…"
Huo Tingrui scratched his head and changed the topic. "Oh yeah, I heard from Xiang that you're going to visit Old Madam Yang after the exams?"
"Uh huh. I already booked the tickets," replied Huo Yao.
Huo Tingrui thought about how the Lu family had already gone bankrupt. He hesitated for a moment before he said, "Will Old Madam Yang welcome you back?"
"I won't." Huo Yao was well aware of the old lady's personality. She glanced at Huo Tingrui quizzically. "Brother Tingrui, do you have something to tell me?"
Huo Tingrui contemplated before he decided to tell her about the Lu family. "I didn't want you to feel awkward going back to Old Madam. After all, the Lu family is already in this state and your foster mother wasn't a well-mannered person."
Huo Yao did not expect the Lu family to be bankrupt. But then again, she remembered that the Lu family had offended the City Hall and the top leader of the city. It was no wonder they were punished.
Gathering her thoughts, she waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, it's not a big problem."
Even if the Lu Family went bankrupt, with He Xiaoman's personality, it was impossible for her to return to her hometown, let alone spend time with Old Madam Lu.
Huo Tingrui did not try to persuade his little sister when he saw how insistent she was. After all, the old lady had raised her for more than a decade, so they were very close.
The siblings chatted for a while before Huo Yao returned to her room. She took out her phone and video-called her grandmother.
Seeing that the old lady's complexion and tone of voice were normal, she was relieved.
"... Oh yes. I bought a plane ticket for January 16th," said Huo Yao before hanging up.
The old lady on the other side of the phone was stunned for two seconds before she reacted. The joy in her eyes could not be concealed. "Are you coming back?"
"Uh huh," replied Huo Yao softly. She smiled as she looked at the old lady.
"There's still half a month left. Grandma has to think about what to prepare for you. You're so tired from studying, so you must have lost weight. Grandma will give you a good supplement when we get back …"
As the old lady muttered, she wiped the corners of her eyes with her hand. After a few words, she realized that she had lost her composure, so she quickly found an excuse to hang up the phone.
Nothing could be happier than the return of his granddaughter.
Huo Yao looked at the number on her phone. She could not help laughing as she shook her head.

Time flew by, and soon it was time for the final exam.
All the students were on tenterhooks for the first two days of the exam. They only heaved a sigh of relief when the final exam was over.
Yi Lianfan brought a few boxes of homemade snacks to Huo Yao before they left campus. "My mom made these. She wants to thank you for the prescription. She's fully recovered now. Come visit us during the winter break."
