Min Yu didn't eat much, so he put down his chopsticks and asked casually, "Did your brother call?"
Huo Yao nodded, paused for two seconds, and then said: "It doesn't matter if you go back later."
When Min Yu heard the words, there was a slightly invisible arc on the corner of his lips, his eyebrows and eyes were like ink, and black and white were distinct.
He beckoned the boss to come and check out.

When Huo Yao arrived home, it was already half an hour later, his fair cheeks were now a little rosy, especially his lips, like the red plums blooming on the branches in winter, delicate and bright red.
Song Ning took a closer look at her daughter, and always felt that the child seemed to have changed a bit when she went out. Her eyes suddenly fell on her daughter's neck, and she asked suspiciously: "Yao, did you wear a scarf when you went out? ?”
Huo Yao closed the scarf without changing his expression, and replied, "I'm wearing it."
"Really?" Song Ning still felt that something was weird.
She remembered that her daughter never had such a red scarf.
"Well, you probably didn't pay attention." Huo Yao walked to the refrigerator, took a bottle of iced Coke, and the cold drink slid down his throat, which relieved the hotness.
Song Ning knew that her daughter never told lies, so she didn't think about it.
Seeing that Ms. Song didn't ask any more questions, Huo Yao finished a bottle of Coke and didn't watch the Spring Festival Gala again, so she went back to her room soon.
When he came out of the shower, the sound of firecrackers outside seemed to be at its peak. Huo Yao opened the curtains and looked at the dazzling fireworks in the night sky outside, feeling a little dazed.
It was as if he had returned to the time when the old lady was still there.
Every New Year, she and she would cuddle up and stand in the yard to set off and watch the fireworks.
Huo Yao suppressed the soreness in his throat.
The sound of the New Year's countdown came from nowhere, and when it reached zero, her lips moved, and the low voice of "Grandma Happy New Year" was drowned in the sound of firecrackers sounding outside at this moment.
The mobile phone on the table also rang at this time, Huo Yao stood in front of the window for a second, then turned and walked back to the room.
Take the phone and pick it up.
"Happy New Year." Min Yu's pleasant voice came over.
When Huo Yao heard this voice, the sour emotions that had arisen just now seemed to dissipate in an instant. She squeezed the phone and said: "Happy New Year."
There was a knock on the door outside, Huo Yao looked up, then hung up the phone quickly, and walked to the door.
Opening the door, Huo Yanxi was standing outside. At this time, he lowered his head a little embarrassedly, and instead of looking at Huo Yao's face, he just handed over the New Year's red envelope that he had prepared, and said in a low voice, "Happy New Year."
Huo Yao looked at the cautious Huo Yanxi, those prejudices in the past have long since disappeared, and now only repentance and bewilderment want to be redeemed.
She was silent for two seconds, then stretched out her hand to take the red envelope, "Thank you brother, happy new year to you too."
Huo Yanxi listened to the little girl's voice, although he was still a little alienated, but he still noticed something different.
He mustered up the courage to raise his head and looked at Huo Yao.
It seemed to confirm something from her face.
"You..." Huo Yanxi opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly he didn't know what to say, so you talked for a long time, but there was nothing to say.
"Pay more attention to rest. Good night, big brother." Huo Yao finished speaking calmly, and closed the door with Huo Yanxi stunned.
After a while, Huo Yanxi came back to his senses. Looking at the closed door, his face was suddenly stained with indescribable excitement.
See you this afternoon.
