“Hi, Young Master Min,” greeted Lu Xia automatically.
Min Yu glanced at Lu Xia mildly with a cool look in his eyes without answering her.
He was from a powerful family, so Lu Xia was unsurprised by his coldness. She tightened her fists slightly as they hung from the sides of her body. She glanced at the door and cut to the chase. “May I have a word with you?”
Min Yu stood motionlessly. “Why would I want to talk to you?”
Lu Xia nodded. She paused and added. “It’s about Huo Yao.”
!!
Lu Xia finally got Min Yu’s attention.
Since Old Madam Yang’s place was old and had bad soundproofing, Lu Xia brought Min Yu upstairs. They simply stood in the corridor without entering the room.
Lu Xia turned back. Even though the man was very handso, she did not dare dream of striking a relationship with him. However, it did not stop her from feeling jealous of Huo Yao. She found it incredible that the girl was close to Min Yu.
Lu Xia composed herself and turned to look at the staircase. After so ti, she finally said, “Young Master Min, do you think Huo Yao seems completely different?”
Min Yu narrowed his eyes. “What are you trying to say?”
Lu Xia simply smiled as she veered her eyes. “Nothing really. I was just trying to warn you. So people aren’t what they seem on the surface. Who knows when they might change?”
Even though Lu Xia’s words sounded profound, it was easy enough to grasp the aning. Min Yu responded mildly. “What are you trying to say?”
Lu Xia continued smiling as she said, “Nothing really. I was just concerned that you might get fooled by her. After all, peculiar things happen all the ti.”
“You might be right, but I happen to feel deeply intrigued by mysterious things,” said Min Yu completely unperturbed as he stood in front of the railing.
Lu Xia was unsurprised when Min Yu did not react whatsoever.
She did not need to go into detail about what she was driving at. She simply had to sow the seeds and wait for them to sprout and grow.
…
Min Yu went back downstairs. When he got to the bedroom door, Huo Yao happened to open the door. He looked at her and asked. “All done?”
“Let’s go.” Huo Yao nodded and replied. She looked calm as usual and there was hardly any expression on her face.
The two of them walked out of the house one after another.
He Xiaoman was still standing outside in the yard. When she saw Huo Yao walk out of the house, she suppressed her fury and swallowed her words even though she was angry. She was quite afraid of Min Yu.
When Huo Yao walked past He Xiaoman, she halted and looked at her foster mother. “She had been religiously taking my ds. Why would she suddenly get a relapse?”
He Xiaoman did not expect Huo Yao to question her, so she said angrily, “What are you implying? Would I try to kill my own mother?”
“If she continued taking my ds, she could have easily lived until she was 80 years old,” said Huo Yao.
“Do you really think you can stop soone from dying? Do you think you’re a god?” He Xiaoman found Huo Yao’s words hilarious. “Perhaps she died because of your ds.”
“If I find out that you did sothing to her, I won’t let you off,” said Huo Yao before leaving.
He Xiaoman’s face turned livid in fury. Just as she was about to turn and scold Huo Yao, she caught Min Yu looking at her coldly, so she automatically swallowed her words. After Min Yu and Huo Yao were finally out of sight, she cursed infuriatingly. “What the hell does she think she’s doing?”
Lu Xia walked out and saw the angry look on her mother’s face, so she automatically asked. “What’s wrong?”
