Chapter 473: I Will Prepare A Gift For You
Huo Yao wiped all traces from the computer. Then she stood up and headed to the printer to retrieve the printout. She folded it, and placed it in her jacket’s pocket.
She quickly left the print shop after paying up.
It was early winter, so the sky turned dark slightly earlier. There was still light when she left home, but when she came out of the print shop, it was a lot darker, and the streetlamps in the estate had already lit up.
Under the dim light, Huo Yao was dressed in a black jacket with her long slender calves exposed. She was walking slowly on the road with her hands in her pockets. She gave off a cool vibe as she strolled leisurely.
Huo Yao’s phone rang in her pocket. She pulled it out to see Min Yu’s call, so she quickly answered it.
“Are you busy?” Min Yu’s cool voice came over the phone.
Huo Yao raised her head and glanced up ahead. The estate entrance was nearby. “Nope.”
Min Yu was standing on the balcony on the second floor of his villa. His face looked gentle. “I just sent you a text message, but you didn’t reply, so I thought you were busy.”
Huo Yao pulled the phone from her ear to tap on the screen. Sure enough, she had received a text message about two minutes ago. She opened it for a brief look and replied. “My phone was in my pocket. I didn’t hear it.”
Two cars drove by and their honking could be heard on the phone.
“Are you outside?” asked Min Yu in slight surprise.
“Uh huh. I’m having a stroll in the estate,” said Huo Yao candidly. She paused before she asked him. “Why were you looking for me?”
Min Yu leaned against the railing lazily. “It’s Old Mr. Yi’s birthday tomorrow, so he invited you to dinner.”
Huo Yao narrowed her eyes. Old Mr. Yi had already gotten his grandson to give her an invitation, and now even Min Yu asked her to go. It seemed that she could not turn down the invitation.
She contemplated briefly and said, “Fine. I will go.”
Min Yu detected her helplessness. A thought crossed his mind before he raised his brows slightly and added. “Don’t worry about the gift. I will prepare one for you.”
Huo Yao went quiet the moment she heard this. He made it sound like she was such a miser.
“Thanks, Boss. You are so kind,” said Huo Yao enthusiastically.
Min Yu went speechless.
I will pick you up after school tomorrow,” said Min Yu after some time.
Huo Yao walked briskly in the estate. “Would it be too much of a hassle?”
“Nope.” Min Yu’s eyes landed on the yard beneath the balcony and said, “It’s on the way.”
Huo Yao’s lips twitched. No.1 Middle School was in the opposite direction of the old Yi residence. “Fine. I won’t be polite then.”
“Uh huh. See you tomorrow.”
“Okay,” replied Huo Yao. Just as she was about to hang up, she heard Min Yu’s voice again. “Go back early. It isn’t safe for a young girl like you to be out alone at night.”
Huo Yao pulled her jacket closer around her with a profound look in her eyes. Everyone was certainly fooled by her weak exterior.
People keep telling her that the world was not a safe place.
She felt helpless.
After hanging up the phone, she placed it in her pocket before she headed for her home unhurriedly.
Huo Yao narrowed her eyes after walking a short distance. A look of surprise flashed across her face as she slowed down slightly.
