Min Yu thought for two seconds, then handed the box out, but before handing it to Huo Yao, he said: "You can give it to you, but you can't return it."
Huo Yao glanced at him, "... Got it."
Only then did Min Yu put the box in her palm.
Huo Yao said good night, then took the box and left.
Seeing this, Min Yu shook his head lightly.
Soon Huo Yao went back to her room, closed the door, and sat on the bed before she opened the box.
Inside the box was a small white jade pendant. There were no extra patterns on the pendant. The shape was a bit special, like a fish, but not a fish.
Huo Yaoduan took a few glances, and the appearance of the jade was indeed not a priceless antique.
Soon, she put the things back into the box. After closing the lid, she thought about hearing what the old lady had said on the phone. After a while, she put the box into the suitcase.

In the next two days, Huo Yao stopped messing with her refining stove, but stayed with the old lady all the time.
The old lady originally thought that her daughter would call to question Yu, and would rush back the next day non-stop. She looked worried, but she was relieved to see that her daughter hadn't come back.
After all, she was also very reluctant to let Huo Yao leave early, because she didn't know if there would be a chance to meet again in the future.
Huo Yao originally planned to book a flight ticket back to City S every other day, but seeing the old lady's mood was depressed, she postponed her return for a day after thinking about it.
On the day of leaving, the old lady got up at five o'clock in the morning, went upstairs to Huo Yao's room, and secretly handed her a booklet, "Yao, this is the little savings that grandma has saved over the years, and what you gave me earlier. I save all my money for you."
Huo Yao leaned against the bed, didn't look at the money inside, and instead stuffed the booklet back to her, "I have money to use."
Seeing this, the old lady said with a wronged face: "This is Grandma's wish, you don't want it, do you think the money is too little?"
Huo Yao pressed his eyebrows.
"There's nothing I can do if I don't have enough money. Grandma doesn't have any sources of income other than the retirement salary. She doesn't have any more money..." the old lady started whispering.
Huo Yao felt a little headache, sighed, and hurriedly took the existence back, "Stop talking, I want it."
Only then did the old lady purse her lips in satisfaction, "It's not too bad."
Soon, she babbled a few more words before going downstairs to prepare breakfast for them.
Huo Yao didn't feel sleepy either. After the old lady left, she got up, packed her things one by one, and when she put the passbook in her bag, she opened it and looked at it.
Seeing the total amount of 350,000 yuan below, and thinking about his shriveled purse, the whole person fell into silence.
Even the old lady is richer than her.

The air ticket was at 12:00 noon, so the group left the old lady's house after having breakfast.
It was Cheng Ming who came to pick them up, and the role of the rental car driver was very good. On the way, Huo Yao chatted with him a few words.
The flattered Cheng Ming reported the work of this trip to the chief manager after sending him to the airport in the city. Of course, he also specifically explained that the eldest lady is a very easy-to-contact person.
This made Huo Changfeng a little unhappy, so on the phone, "It happens that Province Y has a project to follow up, so you can stay there."
Fu County, where the old lady lives, is under the jurisdiction of Province Y.
Cheng Ming, who had already booked a plane ticket back to City S at 1 p.m., heard this: "???"
What did he do wrong
