The man did not know why Huo Yao wanted to go to Province Y, but he simply nodded and replied. “Yes, Miss Huo. I will notify the airport aviation crew to make arrangements.”

Huo Yao nodded and thanked the man.

Huo Yao went back inside the private airport lounge and said to Mi Wei without even looking at Shangguan Hou, “I have to go somewhere. I’ve made arrangements to send you to the hospital. I’ll come to see you when I’m done.”

Mi Wei felt a lot better now thanks to Huo Yao. He scrutinized Huo Yao. Even though she looked completely normal on the surface, he could tell that she was sad. He reached his hand out and patted her on the arm and did not continue probing. “Sure. See you around.”

“Uh huh,” acknowledged Huo Yao before she walked out of the private airport lounge.

Before long, Shangguan Hou and his men were taken away and Mi Wei was sent to the hospital.

The Huo family’s local man moved quickly and the chopper was ready in roughly ten minutes.

After boarding the flight, Huo Yao sat down motionlessly and looked out of the window in a daze. Her nails were digging into her palms until they bled slightly, but she took no notice of it.

Time passed swiftly, but it felt like forever to her. An hour later, the flight finally landed at the Province Y airport.

Huo Yao felt tired. She closed her eyes slightly before she stood up and got off. She looked inexplicably sad. Her subordinate said nothing and simply followed beside her quietly.

When she left the airport, Zhuo Yun could be found waiting for her at the entrance. Huo Yao had already texted him before she boarded the flight. The moment he saw her, he went over and greeted her. “Hi, Miss Huo.”

Huo Yao nodded and asked hoarsely. “Where is she?”

Zhuo Yun led her to the parking lot as he said softly, “Her body was sent back home. I reckon it is already there by now.”

The moment Huo Yao heard what he said, she tightened her fists as they hung from the sides of her body. She acknowledged softly and turned to tell her subordinate not to follow her anymore.

Before long, Zhuo Yun drove Huo Yao back to her grandmother’s place.

On the way there, he drove as fast as he could. Typically, it would take roughly two hours to get there, but they made it back in just an hour.

The car pulled up in the alley. Min Yu was standing there waiting for her dressed in a black coat.

When Huo Yao saw Min Yu standing there, the expression on her face finally softened up slightly. She opened the car door and went up to stand in front of him. Since the wind was cold, she trembled slightly. Her face looked pale and it was impossible to hide it now.

Min Yu had never seen Huo Yao looking so vulnerable, and he felt bad for her. He reached his hand out to hold her cold palm. After some time, he finally said, “My deepest condolences.”

Huo Yao squeezed his hand slightly. Even though his hand felt warm, all she sensed was piercing cold radiating from inside her. She asked him. “What happened to my grandmother?”

Min Yu smoothed her hand as he said, “Let’s go see her.”

“Okay.” Huo Yao nodded as he led her into the alley.

She walked mechanically following behind Min Yu. She was usually unfazed and it was hard watching her as she dealt with her loss.

Zhuo Yun sighed deeply looking at her.

When Huo Yao and Min Yu got to the entrance, the door was open. A black banner hung over the door. She stood at the entrance and looked inside the compound.

The yard was usually empty, but it was filled with neighbors now. A tent was set up in the empty space and a coffin was resting below.

Lu Xia was dressed in dark clothing, wearing a black armband on her arm and talking to the people inside. She detected someone’s presence, so she turned to look at the door.
