Huo Yao noticed someone looking at her, so she smiled at him cordially before walking over. When she came close, she greeted him calmly. “Morning.”
She looked particularly natural.
“Moming.”
‘Min Yu was dressed in running gear with his sleeves rolled up slightly. There was some sweat on his brow and his well-defined features were oozing s.e.xiness. The man had clearly already started running.
“Moming,” said Min Yu. He pointed at the estate and raised his brow. “Let’s run together.”
Huo Yao acknowledged calmly and seemed completely normal as she started her usual morning routine.
She refused to show the slightest bit of awkwardness!
Min Yu looked sideways at the girl in front of him and smiled before following behind her unhurriedly.
The two of them jogged for five rounds in the estate. When they were down to the last round, they decided to do a brisk walk instead. During this time, neither of them spoke. On the surface, things seemed calm and peaceful.
After the morning run, Min Yu walked Huo Yao home.
Huo Yao was entering the door pa.s.scode when her hands suddenly paused. She turned around and looked at Min Yu. “Don’t… don’t you have anything to say?”
Her face was no longer as fair as before since it was slightly flushed from the workout.
Min Yu raised his brow. “What should I talk about? Do you mean the mystery woman who helped me win the race?” He paused before he added in a deep and gentle voice. “Or do you mean the world racing champion, Liu Yu?”
‘The moment Huo Yao heard what he said, the smile on her face instantly cracked. “Huh? Why are you saying such strange things? The racing champion? I have only had my driver’s license for less than half a year.”
If she refused to admit it, no one could squeeze it out of her.
Min Yu smiled ambiguously. “No license is needed for underground car racing.”
Huo Yao pretended not to hear him. She tumed and continued entering the pa.s.scode for the door. “I have to go. I still have to get to school.”
She opened the door and stepped in. Min Yu’s voice could be heard from behind. “When are you going to race with me?”
Huo Yao’s face twitched slightly as she held the door.
Min Yu looked at Huo Yao from behind. After some time, he said sadly, “You owe me that.”
Huo Yao pondered before opening her eyes wide. She turned to look at Min Yu in disbelief. “I didn’t expect you to be so stingy. I earned those twenty million fair and square!”
She did not care if she blew her cover, but no one could make her part with her money.
‘The moment Huo Yao finished her sentence, she closed the gate.
Min Yu went quiet.
Min Yu rubbed his brow. He said in a powerless tone, “No one said anything about taking your money.”
Huo Yao acknowledged him through the gate. This time, she looked a little less upset.
Min Yu looked at her quietly for a few seconds. Then, he simply said without explaining further, “Tonight, we have to race.”
Although she did not know why the guy was suddenly so determined to have a race with her, she did not mind as long as it did not involve money.
Huo Yao nodded her head. “Fine. Tonight then.”
“Okay.”
A complicated expression swept across Min Yu’s face the moment Huo Yao agreed, but she failed to detect it.
She quickly went back home.

Meanwhile, at the hospital.
It had been several days since Old Master Song had completed the bone marrow transplant. He had been staying at the transplant chamber during this time. Since he was getting on age and his immunity was already compromised owing to the chemotherapy, he suffered from an infection and other
complications shortly after completing the surgery.
Song Zhi had hardly gotten any sleep for the past two days.
