Huo Yao noticed that Huo Yulin was clenching his left hand tightly. She contemplated for a few seconds before she stood up and walked up to him. She grabbed his arm and slowly spread his fingers.
Huo Yao noticed that Huo Yulin's thumb joint was slightly deformed. She was well-versed in the anatomy of the human body, so she knew that it was a secondary injury caused when the joint was repositioned.
Two seconds later, she raised her head to look at Huo Yulin and said, "No matter what happened to this hand in the past, it's all in the past. Why do you have to mistreat it and make life difficult for yourself?"
Huo Yulin lowered his eyes slightly and his gaze landed on his palm for a long time. He wanted to say that he hated this hand sometimes, but he suddenly could not bring himself to say it. In the end, all he could do was acknowledge her softly.
Huo Yao noticed that he was no longer as depressed as before, so she patted his palm. "You can do it, Brother Yulin."
Huo Yulin tilted her head and winked at him.
Huo Yulin was amused by his little sister's behavior. He instinctively rubbed her head and said, "I will."
Huo Yao touched her nose. She wanted to tilt her head, but since he was in a bad mood today, she decided to let it go.
Before long, Huo Yao left Huo Yulin's room and headed downstairs without disturbing his rest.
The old lady was still chatting with Min Yu, so Huo Yao walked over and sat down on the couch next to her.
"Huo Yao, why are you sleeping so early tonight?" asked the old lady as she tilted her head to look at Huo Yao.
Huo Yao took off her furry shoes and crossed her legs on the couch before she leaned back comfortably. "Uh huh. I might have caught a cold this morning."
The old lady asked with concern. "Do you need to take some flu medicine?"
"It's fine. Young people are always healthy. A cold is nothing." Huo Yao waved her hand.
"Your Brother Yulin is so skinny. How does he look like he's healthy?" replied the old lady disapprovingly. Although Huo Yulin wore a lot of winter clothes, his face was devoid of flesh.
Huo Yao instantly sat up straight and patted her chest. "I'm skinny too, but I'm strong."
The old lady went speechless.
Min Yu's lips twitched.
Tiantai shook his head and stood up. "I'm going to make him a bowl of ginger tea to get rid of the cold. You young people just don't take your health seriously …"
Initially, Huo Yao wanted to tell her not to be so busy. However, Huo Yao could not stop her from insisting, so she let her be.
Huo Yao shook her head and veered her eyes away. She reached for the winter date on the coffee table and took a bite. Then she asked Min Yu. "Oh yes. Have you booked your flight?"
"No. When are you going back?" Min Yu raised his brow.
"The day after tomorrow," said Huo Yao with a nod.
They had been staying here for five days, so it was about time.
"Sure." Min Yu nodded.
At this time, the old lady's phone on the coffee table rang. She spat the date stone into the trash can, put on her furry shoes, and calmly picked up the phone, ready to give it to the old lady.
However, when her gaze swept over the caller ID on the screen, her eyes slightly narrowed.
Huo Yao was the one who had given the old lady the phone, so the volume was loud enough for the kitchen to hear. Soon, the old lady's voice came through. "Yao, go and see who's calling. Help me answer it. I'm busy right now."
Huo Yao raised her head and glanced in the direction of the kitchen. "Uh huh." She waited for the last ring before she answered the call and put the phone to her ear.
Her expression was cold and she did not speak first.
