Yuan Xi wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h her phone back, but she was unable to even stand, so she could only watch helplessly as Yuan Huan held her phone.
A few moments later, Yuan Huan suddenly turned around and pointed the phone’s camera at Yuan Xi.
She instinctively felt worried and covered her face. “What are you trying to do?”
A cold look emerged on Yuan Huan’s face. After he was done taking pictures of her, he put away the phone and prepared to leave.
After taking a step, he turned to look at Yuan Xi. “Do you think your friend will come over to save you?”
!!
Yuan Xi clenched her fists. She instantly knew what Yuan Huan wanted and said in a deep voice, “We’re just normal schoolmates. Even if you send her the pictures, I’m sure she will do nothing more than call the cops!”
“Really?” Yuan Huan pursed his lips. “Let’s just wait and see.”
The moment he finished his sentence, he walked out without talking to Yuan Xi.

Huo Yao was in front of the computer.
Her phone was beside her when she suddenly received a text notification.
Huo Yao raised her head and glanced at the phone screen and saw some pictures from Yuan Xi. She paused briefly and picked up her phone.
Huo Yao frowned the moment she tapped on the pictures.
Huo Yao held her phone without sending a reply immediately. She put down her phone and contemplated briefly. She was chatting with someone on the computer, but she told her friend that she had to leave and closed the chat box.
She promptly activated a tracking program and instantly found out where Yuan Xi was located.
She was currently in an old villa district in the suburbs.
Huo Yao narrowed her eyes as she looked at the address on the screen. She paused briefly before she stood up and took her coat out of the cabinet.
When she got to the door, she paused and turned back. She opened the drawer at the bottom of her desk and retrieved the gun that Chen Ming had given her recently and placed it in her pocket.
The maid was busy preparing dinner when she got downstairs. Huo Yao said goodbye and stepped out of the house.
Shortly after she had left her estate, Huo Yulin came home. When he got home, he glanced around the living room and noticed that his sister was not there, so he went to the kitchen and asked the maid about it.
“Miss Huo said she had to go out, but she did not mention when she would return,” replied the maid.
Huo Yulin nodded as he rubbed the vial of solution in his pocket. He turned to leave without asking anything further.

Meanwhile, at the Min residence.
Everyone was seated at the dinner table.
“Did you tell her about it?” Nie Su held her chopsticks without starting to eat and simply looked at her son.
Min Yu looked up at her lazily. “Nope. She’s going straight home when her holiday starts. She doesn’t have time to do it.”
“It’s just dinner. I’m sure she can spare the time!” Nie Su felt annoyed by her son’s patronizing att.i.tude and asked. “Why won’t you bring her home? Do you plan on being an irresponsible man like one of those privileged brats in the capital?”
Min Yu could sense the veins on his forehead throbbing. He raised his head and looked at Nie Su intently. He wanted Huo Yao to visit as well, but he could not force her. He did not say it out loud.
Old Master Min glanced at his grandson and declared coolly. “I bet she doesn’t like him.”
“Maybe. After all, she’s not blind, right,” said Nie Su as she deliberately tried to squeeze a reaction out of Min Yu.
Min Yu remained quiet.
Sometimes, he wondered if he was their biological son.
Min Yu was unable to go on eating, so he put down his chopsticks. He disregarded their personal attacks and said, “Dad’s back from his archaeological expedition.”
