Huo Yao looked calm in comparison to Huo Jinfeng. She comforted him. "It will be fine."
She spoke gently as though nothing was impossible.
Huo Jinfeng clearly still felt very angry about this. A murderous aura could be sensed in the room. "I won't let them push you around."
Shangguan Tong glared at Huo Jinfeng. "Allow to remind you of the shape you are in."
"I…" Huo Jinfeng parted his lips, but the mont he caught Shangguan Tong's stare, he promptly deflated like a balloon. "… I'm fine."
"Hmph." Shangguan Tong laughed softly.
Huo Jinfeng promptly shut his gap.
Huo Yao was sitting by the side when she was unexpectedly forced to see this public display of affection.
These two really should stay single for a while longer.
Huo Yao only spent slightly over ten minutes in the hospital ward. The atmosphere was very harmonious, so it was clear that she was not needed there.
"I'm walking her out." When Shangguan Tong noticed Huo Yao leaving, she paused briefly and turned to say to Huo Jinfeng.
She gestured for him to let go of her.
Huo Jinfeng glanced at her before looking at his niece. Both parties claid they had only t each other now, but he had a vague feeling they were connected in so way.
It felt as though they knew each other well, down to every body language and gesture.
Huo Jinfeng narrowed his eyes slightly before he finally let go of her hand.
Before long, Shangguan Tong and Huo Yao walked out of the hospital ward.
No one was guarding the corridor at this mont. As Huo Yao slowly walked toward the lift, she said calmly, "Aunt Tong, what are your plans now? I suppose you won't be going back to the clan for so ti."
"Uh huh." Shangguan Tong cleared her throat and suppressed her uneasiness before she continued. "I have to do sothing."
Huo Yao looked up and asked nonchalantly. "Does it have sothing to do with Mirage Base?"
"You can say so." It was impossible to see what Shangguan Tong was thinking. She thought about last night and looked sideways at Huo Yao. "Soone helped at the base. Was it your friend?"
When the black gun was trained on her forehead, she thought she was going to die.
Unexpectedly, the man simply asked her a couple of questions and released her.
"Uh huh," acknowledged Huo Yao without explaining. Instead, she asked. "What are you trying to find at Mirage Base?"
They had already reached the lift. Two blurry silhouettes could be seen on the dark tallic door.
Huo Yao looked at the blurry silhouettes reflecting off the door. For a mont, she did not reach her hand out to press the lift button. "I'm guessing it has sothing to do with , right?"
When she was still Shangguan Yu, she should have died in that explosion a few years ago. Instead, she woke up. This must have happened due to so reason.
A sad smile appeared on Shangguan Tong's face. Sure enough, she was very sensitive and alert. She sighed inwardly and finally replied. "That's right. I'm looking for sothing, but it might not be at Mirage Base."
Shangguan Tong's mind drifted away after saying this.
When she first infiltrated Mirage Base yesterday, no one detected her initially. Then, she accidentally overheard Shangguan Hou's conversation with soone. Before long, the alarms on the base went off and they inexplicably detected her presence.
Shangguan Tong gathered her thoughts. She looked at Huo Yao again. "You have a piece of white jade. I'm looking for a piece of black jade that matches yours."
Hearing this, Huo Yao raised her hand to pull out the jade pendant under her collar. "Do you an this one?"
