The door to Huo Yulin's room was closed, but the lights were still on. Huo Yao knocked on the wooden door and greeted him.
Huo Yulin's old house was not soundproof. He put on his coat again when he heard his little sister's voice and went to open the door.
The smell of sandalwood wafted out when he opened the door.
Huo Yao's eyes flickered when she caught a whiff of it.
She had formulated a special Chinese medicine for Huo Yulin's condition and used acupuncture to help him sleep. It had been a while since he needed incense to help him sleep.
However, he suddenly lit it again tonight. Clearly, something was bothering him.
"Do you mind having a chat with me?" Huo Yao looked at Huo Yulin with concern in her exquisite eyes.
Huo Yulin tightened his grip on the wooden door. When he met his little sister's clear eyes, he strangely felt peaceful. He relaxed his fingers and nodded.
Huo Yao walked into the room and closed the door behind her. She glanced at the incense burner with smoke curling up from it before she pulled over an old wooden chair and sat down.
"Brother Yulin, you don't seem to be in a good mood today... Did something happen to you?" asked Huo Yulin straightforwardly.
Huo Yulin glanced at her and pretended to be relaxed as he sighed. "I can't seem to hide anything from my little sister."
Huo Yao raised her brow. "So?"
"I suddenly recalled something from the past." Huo Yulin did not intend to tell her about Lu Xia's visit because there was no need.
Huo Yao could guess what was going on. She contemplated for a moment before she said, "It hurts to recall the past because you haven't faced it head-on."
Huo Yulin's pain probably stemmed from the fact that he did not dare to face the kidnapping case.
She had never experienced that kind of despair. However, after trying hypnosis on him once, she had experienced the pain of despair.
Huo Yulin's eyes landed on the lamp on the bedside table. His eyes became slightly misty. After a long time, he said in a low voice, "Everyone thinks I'm in pain because of the kidnapping case. But... that's not entirely the case."
Huo Yao's fingers did not move. Instead, she listened quietly and waited for him to continue.
Huo Yulin raised his head. There was an indescribable emotion on his fair face. He inhaled deeply before he suddenly looked at Huo Yao with a firm gaze. "If Yulin isn't the normal person you think he is, will you be afraid?"
He squeezed his left hand tightly.
Huo Yao sensed the change in his mood. She raised her brow and asked him instead of answering his question. "What if I'm not the little sister you think I am?"
There were some things that couldn't be explained by science, so she felt helpless.
Huo Yulin was taken aback by this question, and even his nervousness dissipated.
It wasn't the younger sister that he had imagined … Was it because she had a lot of secrets?
"No matter how many secrets you have, you are still my little sister," replied Huo Yulin seriously.
Huo Yao nodded and said in an irritating tone, "Brother Yulin, your question was so rude. Do you not trust your sister that much?"
Huo Yulin was taken aback. These words clearly didn't sound like they were meant to comfort him, but they somehow soothed his emotions at that moment.
Huo Yulin went quiet for a while before he pursed his lips and smiled. He raised his eyes to look at Huo Yao again.
He finally understood why Huo Tingrui and Huo Xiang did not behave like older brothers. Huo Yao must have led them astray.
Why were they still looking for 'When Max Boss Fails' for free?
Baidu searched:
"Easy."
It was simple!
