Huo Yao contemplated before she nodded and took the breakfast. "Sure. It's at the entrance of the alley. Tell me the name 'Little Baldy'."
Huo Yulin glanced at Huo Yao quietly when he heard the name. It had never occurred to him that his little sister would use such a nickname to shop.
Huo Yao detected his gaze and coughed before she explained. "It's just a lousy website. You can't change your nickname."
Huo Yulin did not probe further. He turned around and headed out.
Before long, Huo Yulin arrived at the entrance of the alley. Before he got close, he saw a man wearing a baseball cap standing there. The man was wearing thin clothes and was holding a small paper box in his arms.
It looked like a delivery.
Huo Yulin walked up to the man and asked politely. "Are you a delivery man?"
The man raised his head and was slightly stunned when he saw Huo Yulin. He asked him. "Are you... Little Baldy?"
Huo Yulin nodded after a second. "Yes."
He glanced at the water droplet pattern embroidered on the edge of the man's cap. It looked rather familiar. He felt he had seen it somewhere before.
Huo Yulin's eyes narrowed slightly.
The man glanced at Huo Yulin before he handed the box to him and said politely, "This is your delivery."
Huo Yulin found the delivery man's gaze a little strange, but he did not probe further. He thanked him and left with the box.
The man fell into deep thought as he watched Huo Yulin leave. He used to think that the 'Little Baldy' was a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. He did not expect him to be so young.
The point was not that he was bald.
Very quickly, the man shook his head and left the alley.

Huo Yulin received a call from his little sister before he reached home. She asked him to go to the grocery store to buy a bottle of soy sauce since they had run out of it.
Then, he turned around and went to the canteen.
He had gone to the grocery store with the old lady yesterday, so he knew where it was.
After buying the soy sauce, Huo Yulin heard someone asking Yang Qiuhua how to get to the old lady's place when he walked out of the store.
He looked up and saw two people standing beside the store. One of them was probably a neighbor who was passing by, but his expression changed slightly when he saw the other person.
"You're looking for Grandma Yang? Her house is just along this alley. Walk all the way to a house with vines hanging on the wall. That's her house."
After that, the neighbor looked at her again and asked curiously, "Are you a relative of Grandma Yang's family?"
She remembered that Yaoyao had come back a few days ago.
Lu Xia was holding her bag in her hand. When she heard the question, she tightened her grip and smiled. She replied, "… a distant relative."
"Oh, oh." The neighbor nodded and did not suspect anything.
Lu Xia was obviously relieved when she didn't ask any more questions.
Huo Yulin watched Lu Xia's every word and action. His lips twitched slightly. Vanity was really something that could not be solved. She did not even dare to acknowledge her own grandmother.
Sensing his gaze, Lu Xia turned around. The moment she saw Huo Yulin, she seemed to be shocked. Her hand loosened and her bag fell to the ground.
Why was he here?
The neighbor picked up her bag enthusiastically and said, "Young lady, you dropped your bag."
