Chapter 1462 Secret
The pendant on the necklace had a very special shape, and Shangguan Hou recognized it almost immediately.
That is the biggest secret of the Shangguan clan, the Tai Chi diagram.
It is said that as long as one puts two jades, one black and one white, together and places them in a special magnetic field, one can open a channel to travel through time and space, whether it is the past or the future.
However, the two pieces of jade were said to be missing several years ago, but now one of them appeared on Shangguan Yu's body... No wonder she is still alive.
Shangguan Hou lowered his eyelids, suppressing the unreadable words that suddenly appeared in his eyes, and finally said nothing more, as if he had admitted defeat.
Huo Yao didn't pay attention to his expression. While waiting for someone to come over, she took out her cell phone and prepared to call Min Yu back. However, before she pressed the dial button, Zhuo Yun's call on the screen came in first.
Her fingertips paused slightly, and she quickly answered the phone.
As soon as the call was connected, Zhuo Yun's voice came over, "Ms. Huo, your call finally got through. Did you just get off the plane?"
Huo Yao's heart skipped a beat when he saw Zhuo Yun's anxious voice, so he asked, "What happened to your brother Yu?"
"No." Zhuo Yun was standing at the airport pick-up gate at this time. His eyes fell inside and his throat suddenly felt dry.
He didn't know what Miss Huo would think when she heard that her grandmother had passed away, but he had to tell her.
After taking a deep breath, Zhuo Yun said, "It was Old Madam Yang... She passed away."
Huo Yao's hands trembled, and her mind went blank for a moment. After a long while, her voice was calm as if she had no abnormal emotions. "What did you say happened to my grandma?"
Zhuo Yun was silent for two seconds, "Please accept my condolences."
Huo Yao held the phone, his hand tense as if it was about to break, "When did it happen? How...did you go?"
"He died of illness an hour ago." Zhuo Yun said slowly.
Huo Yao's face turned pale when he heard this.
An hour ago, one hour... If she had not followed Shangguan Hou, if she had taken the flight back on time, would she have been able to see the old lady for the last time?
Or maybe the old lady won’t die either?
Countless thoughts of self-blame flooded into his mind. Huo Yao could no longer hear what Zhuo Yun was still saying. He seemed to have lost his soul and did not move for a long time.
Mi Wei, who was standing next to her, was startled when he saw her like this, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Ayu, what happened?"
He remembered that she had this expression when her master passed away that year.
Huo Yao raised his head, suppressed all his emotions, replied with a word "it's okay", then stood up, walked to the door and opened it.
The people arranged by Shangguan Hou were still guarding the door. When they saw that it was Huo Yao instead of Shangguan Hou who opened the door, they almost reached for their waists at the same time.
But before they could make any move, they all fell to the ground powerlessly, just like Shangguan Hou had just done.
At this time, the manager arranged by Cheng Ming came hurriedly with several of his men. He took a look at the person lying on the ground and was slightly surprised.
Then the steward hurriedly walked towards Huo Yao who was standing at the door and bowed respectfully, "Miss, are you okay?"
Huo Yao just raised his hand. His expression had already returned to normal, and even his voice did not sound strange. "Please send my friend to the hospital. Can you prepare a helicopter for me now?"
