Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Chen Ming seemed calm and all the worry on his face had disappeared. He turned his head sideways and looked out of the car window as he replied mildly. “Don’t bother.”
His subordinate acknowledged softly before he continued. “Then, are we going back now?”
“Uh huh.” Chen Ming leaned into the seat. Just as he was about to rest his eyes, his phone rang in his pocket.
It was Huo Yulin calling him.
Chen Ming retrieved his phone and quickly answered it. This time, he told Huo Yulin the truth about everything. Also, he informed Huo Yulin that Huo Yao was alive and well and would probably reach home soon.

Meanwhile, in the car.
Huo Yao sat up straight in the car with her hands on her knees like a good student. She twisted her fingers every now and then.
She looked particularly sweet and obedient.
Min Yu focused on driving the car without talking to her, so the atmosphere in the car was particularly quiet.
After the car entered the estate, Huo Yao raised her head and noticed they were not going towards her villa. She turned her head sideways at Min Yu. “This isn’t the way home.”
“Uh huh,” acknowledged Min Yu mildly with his eyes looking straight ahead the entire time.
Huo Yao did not continue talking the moment she heard what he said.
Very well then. There was something different about him today.
He felt particularly intimidating.
She decided to compromise and not offend him at this moment.
Before long, Min Yu drove the car to his villa. After parking the car, he opened the door and got off. He went over to the front pa.s.senger seat and opened it for Huo Yao.
Huo Yao watched as Min Yu opened the door and suddenly did not feel like getting out of the car.
Min Yu raised his brow with his hand on the car door as he smiled at her teasingly. “Do you want me to carry you?”
The moment Huo Yao heard what he said, she got off the car swiftly. “You must be joking. I can get out of the car just fine.”
“Humph.” Min Yu sneered softly and shut the door disappointedly.
Huo Yao touched her nose and stood by the side.
Min Yu glanced at her before holding her wrist. “Come with me.”
He pulled her into the villa while speaking.
After entering the villa, he got her to sit on the couch before he finally let go of her wrist and turned to go to the room next door.
Before long, he came back with a first aid kit and sat down beside Huo Yao. He opened the first aid kit and took out some disinfectant cotton buds.
Before Huo Yao was able to say a word, she could hear his voice. “Give me your hand.”
“Huh?” Huo Yao blinked.
She had yet to wrap her mind around it, but Min Yu had already grabbed her right hand.
Min Yu straightened her fingers and turned her hand around to reveal some swelling on the back of her hand. The blood on her knuckles had already dried up. Although the injury was minor, it looked obvious.
Huo Yao cleared her throat and said softly, “It is just a small injury.”
In comparison, the hooligans were far unluckier than her.
Min Yu simply raised his head and glanced at Huo Yao.
The moment he looked at her, Huo Yao instantly shut up.
Min Yu took the antiseptic cotton buds and lowered his head to help take care of the injury on the back of her hand carefully.
Since no one was talking, the living room remained absolutely quiet. Also, there was something different about the atmosphere.
Min Yu let go of her two minutes later. He said as he packed the first aid kit, “Keep it dry for the next couple of days.”
Huo Yao hurriedly nodded obediently after she finally regained her freedom.
Min Yu placed the first aid kit on the coffee table. He raised his head and smiled at her ambiguously. He said softly, “You handled it pretty well even though you were on your own..”
