Huo Yao thought for a while, then said, "Your birthday present."
The corners of Huo Yulin's lips twitched. Although the value behind the three keepsakes was extraordinary and he should be happy, but—
"My birthday is in October."
It's only May.
Huo Yulin's eyes became more and more resentful.
What's more, the birthday gift is chosen in the most critical part of the heir voting
This is clearly an excuse for casually talking about it!
Huo Yao was silent for two seconds, looked at him, his voice was very soft, it could be heard that it was really perfunctory: "Otherwise, third brother, you will... treat me as an early delivery?"
This will save another birthday present this year.
Huo Yulin: "?"
Huo Yao turned his eyes away, and said instead: "I'll go upstairs to see Uncle."
Rubbing the black box she was holding with her fingers, she took another look at Shangguantong.
After staring at each other for less than two seconds, Shangguantong stood up, "Your uncle's medicine should be ready, I'll bring it over."
Huo Yao nodded slightly and hummed lightly.
After a while, the two went upstairs.
Huo Yulin didn't follow. Looking at the backs of the two of them, he suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.
Always feel that Aunt Tong and his sister have known each other for a long time
Huo Yulin looked suspicious.

Huo Yao followed Shang Guantong upstairs, the two seemed to have a tacit understanding, they didn't go to Huo Jingfeng's room immediately, but went to the glass room on the balcony outside the second floor.
There is a set of leisure tea chairs in the glass room. The tea table is very clean, and the full moon slowly appears in the darkening night overhead.
Shangguantong put the porcelain cup in his hand on the tea table, and the strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine filled the glass room after a while. She looked at Huo Yao, waiting for her to say something.
Huo Yao handed the box directly to Shangguan Tong.
"This is?" Shangguan Tong's fingers just touched the black box when he was stabbed by the coldness of the special material.
But soon she opened the box, and when she looked at the black jade inside, she suddenly raised her head, the shock on her face was self-evident, "Where did you find this piece of black jade?"
She had searched secretly before, even the first base, but she didn't find any news about Heiyu.
I didn't expect the child to be found so soon.
Huo Yao looked at Aunt Tong, then reached out and closed the lid of the box, and then said: "This jade was found in a floating underground palace."
Shangguan Tong was stunned, "The floating underground palace?"
"Yeah." Huo Yao nodded, thought for a while, then took out his mobile phone and found the photos he took in the underground palace before, "Look at this pattern."
Shangguantong took the phone, and when she saw the extremely familiar pattern, her pupils shrank instantly, and her expression changed obviously.
Huo Yao had a panoramic view of Aunt Tong's reaction, and after a while, she spoke again, tentatively: "This pattern seems to be the same as the pattern in the forbidden area of the clan."
Shangguan Tong came back to his senses and returned the phone to Huo Yao, "Have you been to the forbidden area?"
"I went in by mistake once before." Huo Yao's voice was very soft.
Shangguan Tong was silent for a while, then nodded, "Yes, the pattern is indeed the same as the one in the forbidden area, but where is this underground palace?"
Huo Yao explained the location of the underground palace, "Now the underground palace has sunk."
"Sinking?" Shangguan Tong was slightly taken aback.
"Well, this piece of jade sank after I took it out." Huo Yao's eyes froze, and suddenly he remembered the black shadow he saw in the underground palace.
