Chapter 490: Which Huo Family?

Chapter 490: Which Huo Family?

Mrs. Yi snapped out of her daze and stopped thinking about where she had seen Huo Yao before. Instead, she smiled and nodded to Huo Yao. Huo Yao’s jacket was a little open, so the school logo could be seen. A look of surprise rose on Mrs. Yi’s face when she saw it.

She glanced at her son as he sat beside the lass and could not help asking. “Are you classmates?”

Yi Lianfan stood up and briefly contemplated before he replied. “Uh huh. We are in the same level but different classes.”

Mrs Yi was even more surprised. Her son was a proud boy with a candid personality, and his grades were really good, so he barely had any friends, let alone girls.

It seems the young lady must have good grades.

Mrs. Yi smiled. She chatted a little more with Huo Yao. Since Huo Yao was an introvert, she did not talk much.

Min Yu and Huo Yao did not stay after they were done eating and quickly bid farewell to Old Mr. Yi and left.

After the guests left, Mrs. Yi finally got to sit down. She rubbed her aching arms and shoulders as she looked at her exhausted son. “You did a good job today.”

Yi Lianfan leaned back into the couch and waved his hand weakly as he was sapped.

Mrs. Yi picked up the glass of water and took a sip before she asked him. “Oh yes. That girl from earlier. What’s her name?”

Although she had chatted with Huo Yao briefly, she did not ask for her name.

Yi Lianfan straightened his back and looked at her. “Why are you suddenly asking this?”

Mrs. Yi glanced at her son. “Can’t I ask? I’m just curious.

Yi Lianfan touched his nose. “She is Huo Yao.””Huo Yao?” muttered Mrs Yi. She asked, “Which Huo family is she from?”

“Huh?” Yi Lianfan was at a loss.

“What do you know about her background?” explained Mrs. Yi.

Most of the people invited to Old Mr. Yi’s birthday banquet were either family friends or big shots, so Mrs. Yi assumed that Huo Yao was from some big family.

There were a few Huo families among the rich and powerful families in City S.

Yi Lianfan finally realized what she was driving at and said, “I don’t know. Never asked.”

“I see.” Mrs. Yi stopped probing him.

After Min Yu sent Huo Yao to her villa’s entrance, she recalled the incense when she got off the car. She turned to look at Min Yu. “Hang on. I’ll get you the incense.”

Min Yu wanted to say he did not need it urgently, but Huo Yao had already left, so he swallowed his words.

Huo Yao came out in a few minutes with a normal-looking plastic cylinder. She gave it to Min Yu through the window. “Tell me if you need more.”

Min Yu glanced at her quietly and said, “Sure.”

“Bye-bye. Sweet dreams.” Huo Yao waved to Min Yu happily.

Min Yu watched as Huo Yao disappeared from his sight. His lips twitched when he looked at the plastic bag on the car seat and discovered that it was biscuit packaging.

Earlier, she used wooden boxes for storing the incense. Even though they did not look high-end, the packaging was at least sincere and thoughtful. Now she did not even bother to patronize him.

Min Yu shook his head and told Zhuo Yun to drive back home next door.

Old Master Min had yet to sleep. He was sitting in the living room and playing chess with Yang Yi.

Yang Yi had lost to Old Master Min all night, so the moment he saw his boss coming into the living room, he instantly stood up like he saw his savior.
