Zhuo Yun promptly noticed Lu Ziming in the distance. He hurriedly nodded. “Sure thing. I will send him back.”

Huo Yao nodded and thanked him before getting into Min Yu’s car.

Before long, the car left the cemetery.

…

Lu Ziming walked out of the cemetery hesitantly. On the way home, he felt annoyed with himself for coming out without his phone or money. He had no idea how to get home.

When he saw Zhuo Yun standing by the roadside, Zhuo Yun’s powerful aura left Lu Ziming halting in his steps without daring to come close to him.

Zhuo Yun detected his fear, so he walked toward Lu Ziming voluntarily and said, “Miss Huo wants me to send you home.”

Lu Ziming squeezed his hand in surprise. He clearly did not expect any kindness from Huo Yao, so he automatically blurted. “Is she trying to mess with me?”

Zhuo Yun looked up and down at Lu Ziming before he smiled and said, “Do you think you have anything she might want?”

Lu Ziming went quiet.

Even though Zhuo Yun spoke calmly with a smile on his face, his words were quite insulting.

“Come on boy,” said Zhuo Yun as he raised his hand at Lu Ziming. Zhuo Yun had called a cab and it was here.

Lu Ziming went quiet.

Lu Ziming hesitated briefly. Since he did not have a dime on himself, he eventually got in the cab with Zhuo Yun.

He simply assumed his evil foster sister had probably grown a conscience these days.

The airport at City Y was rather small. When Huo Yao and Min Yu got to the arrival entrance, there were hardly any people waiting outside.

The entire place seemed very empty.

Her parents’ flight had yet to land.

“Why don’t you rest in the car? I will bring them over once they get here.” Min Yu glanced at Huo Yao before he spoke. He was concerned that she was pushing herself too much.

“I’m good.” Huo Yao looked ahead as she spoke. “Don’t worry. I’m perfectly fine.”

Min Yu sighed inwardly. He knew she was a stubborn woman, so he did not insist again. They walked straight to the lounge area where he forced her to sit down.

After he was done, he walked back to the arrival gate and stood there waiting for her parents.

They waited for roughly 20 minutes before Huo Jinyan and Song Ning arrived at the arrival hall. Min Yu waved at them when they got there.

Huo Jinyan and Song Jin were caught by surprise to see Min Yu at the arrival hall. When they got closer, Huo Jinyan asked. “What are you doing here?”

The two of them had planned on calling their daughter after arriving at the airport.

Min Yu nodded politely to them and said, “Yulin told me you were coming, so we came over to pick you up.”

Huo Jinyan acknowledged softly and thanked him.

Min Yu smiled. “Don’t mention it. It was the least I could do.”

“How’s my girl?” asked Song Ning worriedly.

The moment she finished her sentence, Huo Yao’s voice could be heard from behind. “Hi, Mom.”

Song Ning hurriedly turned. When Song Ning saw Huo Yao’s ghastly pale face and all the weight she had lost, Song Ning’s eyes instantly felt teary. “Yao, are you…”

Huo Yao squeezed a smile. “Mom, I’m good.”

The moment Song Ning saw the smile on her daughter’s face, she sensed a twinge in her heart. She wiped a tear from her eyes, walked over, and embraced her precious daughter. “Don’t be sad. Everyone dies eventually. I’m sure your grandmother wouldn’t want to see you like this.”

“I know. Don’t worry, Mom.” Huo Yao patted Song Ning on the back. Ever since she left the cemetery, she had already composed herself.

Huo Jinyan also walked over. He raised his hand and touched her head gently. He embraced them both in an attempt to console them.

Lu Xia was standing nearby, so she saw everything.
