Chapter 1484 What's Different

Min Yu didn't eat much. He put down his chopsticks and asked casually, "Did your brother call?"

Huo Yao nodded, paused for two seconds, and then said, "It doesn't matter if I go back later."

When Min Yu heard this, a barely visible curve appeared at the corner of his lips, and his eyebrows and eyes were like ink, clearly black and white.

He waved to the boss to come over to settle the bill.

Half an hour later, Huo Yao got home. His originally fair cheeks were now rosy, especially his lips, which were as bright red as the red plum blossoms blooming on the branches in winter.

Song Ning took a closer look at her daughter and felt that she had changed a little after going out. Her eyes suddenly fell on her daughter's neck and she asked in confusion, "Yao, did you wear a scarf when you went out?"

Huo Yao calmly gathered his scarf and replied, "I'm wearing it."

"Really?" Song Ning still felt something was strange.

She remembered that her daughter never had such a red scarf.

"Well, you may not have noticed." Huo Yao walked to the refrigerator and took out a bottle of ice cola. The cold drink slid down his throat, which reduced the heat.

Song Ning knew that his daughter never told lies, so he didn't think about it any more.

Seeing that Ms. Song didn't ask any more questions, Huo Yao finished his bottle of Coke, didn't watch the Spring Festival Gala anymore, and quickly returned to his room.

When he came out of the shower, the sound of firecrackers outside seemed to have reached its peak. Huo Yao opened the curtains and looked at the dazzling fireworks blooming in the night sky outside, feeling a little dazed.

It was as if I had returned to the time when the old lady was still alive.

Every Chinese New Year, she and she would stand together in the yard to set off and watch fireworks.

Huo Yao suppressed the soreness in his throat.

The sound of the New Year's countdown came from somewhere. When it reached zero, her lips moved, and the low voice of "Happy New Year, Grandma" was drowned out by the sound of firecrackers outside.

The cell phone on the table rang at this time. Huo Yao stood in front of the window for a second, then turned around and walked back to the room.

Take the phone and answer it.

"Happy New Year." Min Yu's pleasant voice came over.

When Huo Yao heard this voice, the bitter emotions that had just arisen in her seemed to disappear in an instant. She held her phone and said, "Happy New Year."

There was a knock on the door. Huo Yao raised his head, took a look, quickly hung up the phone and walked to the door.

When he opened the door, Huo Yanxi was standing outside. He lowered his head a little awkwardly, not looking at Huo Yao's face. He just handed over the New Year's red envelope that he had prepared long ago, and whispered, "Happy New Year."

Huo Yao looked at the cautious Huo Yanxi. The previous prejudices were no longer there. Now there was only regret and helplessness in wanting to make amends.

She was silent for two seconds, then reached out and took the red envelope, "Thank you, brother. Happy New Year to you too."

Huo Yanxi listened to his little sister's voice. Although it was still a little distant, he still noticed that something was different.

He mustered up his courage, raised his head and looked at Huo Yao.

As if he wanted to confirm something from her face.

"You..." Huo Yanxi opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly he didn't know what to say, so he kept saying "you" for a long time but nothing happened.

"Pay more attention to rest, good night, big brother." Huo Yao said calmly, and closed the door while Huo Yanxi was stunned.

After a while, Huo Yanxi came back to his senses. He looked at the closed door, his face suddenly filled with indescribable excitement.

See you this afternoon.
