Huo Yao touched her nose. For some reason, she felt guilty for being seen through.
But very quickly, she straightened her back. Guilty my ass!
Min Yu's lips twitched, but he did not expose her. He put his phone back in his pocket and straightened his body. "Okay. I'll walk you out."
Huo Yao bit the bullet and nodded. Then, she slowly followed behind him.
They walked slowly through the exquisitely manicured garden. The night breeze brushed against their cheeks, bringing with it a hint of coolness. It was October in the capital, so the temperature at night was a little different from the day.
Min Yu opened the door for Huo Yao to go out first. However, when she walked past him, he suddenly reached out to hold her hand and asked her. "Are you cold?"
Huo Yao was still walking with her head lowered. She was slightly taken aback when she heard his question. "Huh?"
Min Yu smiled. His hand slid down to hold her palm. He squeezed his fingers between hers and clasped their palms together tightly. "I think it's a little cold."
Huo Yao went speechless. "..."
Once again, Min Yu sighed with satisfaction as he led Gu Xijiu out.
A few minutes later, he walked Huo Yao out of the villa before he let go of her hand. He raised his head to glance at the villa before his eyes landed on Huo Yao's face. His eyes darkened before he said, "Go in. Goodnight."
Huo Yao's eyes drifted away. She coughed softly and said, "Goodnight."
She turned around and entered the passcode at the door. The moment the door opened, Min Yu's voice came from behind. "Oh yes. Yang Yi just called to tell me that the compensation has been transferred to your bank account."
Huo Yao stumbled and paused. She did not turn around. Instead, she raised her hand and made an 'OK' sign in the air before entering the villa.
Damn it. How could she fail like this?
Min Yu smiled gently and shook his head before he turned around and left.

The moment Huo Yao entered the villa, she smelled the aroma of food. She rubbed her stomach as she walked into the dining room. When she saw Huo Yulin setting the table, she walked over and pulled out a chair to sit down.
Huo Yulin glanced sideways at her and said, "Go wash your hands."
"Okay." Huo Yao obediently got up and washed her hands as fast as she could. Just as she was about to pick up her chopsticks to eat, she paused and looked sideways at Huo Yulin. "Brother Yulin, do we have guests today?"
There were actually three pairs of bowls and chopsticks.
"Yeah." Huo Yulin paused for a moment before he nodded.
No wonder he sent so much food over.
Huo Yao bit the tip of her chopsticks.
Huo Tingrui came out of the washroom and overheard their conversation. His face instantly darkened. "I am your older brother!"
He strode over and glared fiercely at Huo Yulin. It had only been a few months since he last saw Huo Yulin, but this dog had also become so flirtatious.
"Brother Tingrui, when did you get here?" Huo Yao's eyes lit up when she saw Huo Tingrui.
"Today." Huo Tingrui sat down next to Huo Yao and scrutinized her before he said, "You've lost weight. Did Yulin mistreat you?"
Huo Yulin, who had been shot while lying down: "?"
"You really don't know how to be a brother." Huo Tingrui pursed his lips in disdain.
Huo Yao glanced at Huo Tingrui, who was in a daze. She pushed the bowl and chopsticks to Huo Tingrui and said, "That's enough, Brother Tingrui. Stop bullying him."
Huo Tingrui snorted. He was going to open a law firm in the capital!
"Brother Tingrui, are you on a business trip?" asked Huo Yao in a muffled voice as she picked up a piece of pork rib.
Huo Tingrui sighed deeply. "Can't I visit my little sister if I'm not on a business trip?"
