Chapter 1872 A Reminder
Liang Qiu touched his face and commended, "I"m glad that I look like an honest guy."
Huo Yao looked into his dark eyes. He had sharp eyes and well-chiseled features. The fierce-looking tattoo on his neck reached behind his ear. After some time, she nodded. "I agree."
Since he always liked bragging, one of them had to be more magnanimous.
Liang Qiu looked at her with a serious face. "What did you take from the base? Why do they want you?"
Huo Yao appeared a few days ago. Also, judging from Shangguan Hou"s reaction, it was clear that Mirage Base was after her.
Even though Liang Qiu acted roguishly, he was very observant.
"What thing?" Huo Yao spoke lightly as she kept stirring her coffee with the small spoon. "What are they looking for? What does it have to do with me?"
Liang Qiu noticed that Huo Yao genuinely knew nothing of it. He went quiet briefly and said, "The base has a secret project that has been going on for decades, but they suddenly activated it."
He paused and added, "But I am unable to tell you more."
Huo Yao narrowed her eyes. She knew what Liang Qiu meant. She pursed her lips. "Got it. Thanks."
"No matter what, just watch your back," reminded Liang Qiu. He paused and added, "Oh yes. I suggest you check your things to see if any tracking devices were placed on them."
Huo Yao looked at Liang Qiu. She knew he would not mention this for nothing. She nodded. "Thanks for the reminder."
"You"re welcome."
Liang Qiu smiled and picked up his cup of coffee.
The two of them did not chat for long. Before long, they parted ways.
**
After Huo Yao parted ways with Liang Qiu, she did not go straight back to the Huo estate.
When she got to Min Yu"s villa, Zhuo Yun was just done packing up the robot. He was at the door getting ready to send it to the airport.
"Hi, Miss Huo," greeted Zhuo Yun. "This will get s.h.i.+pped home in the afternoon."
"Uh huh. Thank you." Huo Yao nodded.
She glanced at the cardboard box. When the kid received it, he would probably be beside himself with joy.
After all, he had wanted one for a long time.
Before long, Huo Yao entered the house.
Min Yu was nowhere to be seen inside the living room. She glanced around before sitting down on the couch.
She thought about Liang Qiu"s reminder about trackers and took out her phone.
The phone was a necessity in modern times, so it was easy enough for someone to plant a tracker.
However, it was unlikely for such software to exist on her phone.
When Min Yu came downstairs, he looked up and saw Huo Yao curled up on the couch playing with her phone. The coldness in his eyes dissipated immediately.
He went toward her.
As she approached, Huo Yao raised her head, put down her phone, and reached her hand out. "Let me take a look at your phone."
"Are you checking my phone?" Min Yu raised his brow, but his hand moved without hesitation as he placed his phone in her hand.
Huo Yao knew the code. As she unlocked it, she glanced at him and said sternly. "You should be more confident about yourself."
Min Yu went speechless.
Huo Yao did not detect anything amiss with Min Yu"s phone, so she felt relieved. She handed the phone back without offering any explanation. She turned to talk about something else. "Has Prof Min and the archaeological team gone back?"
Min Yu glanced at her. "They fly this afternoon."
Huo Yao leaned against her chin and veered her head slightly. "You"re his son, right? Aren"t you going to see him off?"
