Chapter 1463 Back
Although the steward didn't know what the young lady was going to do in Province Y, he nodded immediately and said, "Okay, I'll contact the aviation management department to borrow the passage now."
Huo Yao nodded slightly and said thank you again.
Huo Yao turned around and went back into the lounge. He didn't even look at Shangguan Hou. He just said to Mi Wei, "Uncle Wei, I have something to do. I'll have someone take you to the hospital. I'll come back to see you later."
Mi Wei's strength had recovered a little. He looked at Huo Yao. Although she looked normal, he could still see the sadness in her eyes. He reached out and patted her arm without asking any more questions. "Okay, go ahead and get busy."
"Um."
Huo Yao walked out of the lounge.
Soon, Shangguan Hou and his men were taken away, and Mi Wei was also sent to the hospital.

The Huo family's steward was very efficient, and the plane was ready in less than ten minutes.
After Huo Yao got on the plane, she sat there without moving, her eyes looking out the window, empty and lifeless. Her fingers had already pierced her palms, but she seemed to feel nothing at all.
Time passed quickly, yet it seemed very slow. After more than an hour, the plane finally landed at the airport in Y Province.
Huo Yao then closed her sore eyes, stood up and got off the plane. Her frail figure carried an inexplicable sadness. The manager who accompanied her didn't dare to say much and just followed her silently.
When they walked out of the airport, Zhuo Yun was waiting at the exit. Huo Yao had sent him a message before getting on the plane. When he saw her, he hurried over to greet her, "Ms. Huo."
Huo Yao nodded, his voice a little hoarse, and asked, "Where is my grandma now?"
Zhuo Yun led her to the parking lot and whispered back, "The body has been transported back to Fu County. It should have arrived home by now."
Hearing the word "body", Huo Yao clenched her hands hanging by her side again. She nodded lightly, turned around and said to the Huo family's manager that there was no need to follow, and then she didn't say anything else.
Soon, Zhuo Yun drove Huo Yao back to the county town.
He drove at almost the maximum speed along the way, and the journey that was supposed to take two hours ended up taking only one hour.
The car stopped at the intersection of the alley, and Min Yu, wearing a long dark coat, was waiting there.
Huo Yao looked at the man standing there, and there was finally a trace of fluctuation in her eyes. She pushed the door and got out of the car, standing in front of Min Yu. The cold wind blew across her face, and she suddenly shivered, and the paleness on her face could no longer be hidden.
Min Yu had never seen Huo Yao like this before, and his heart ached. He reached out and held her cold hand. After a while, he spoke, "My condolences."
Huo Yao curled her fingers. Even though she was wrapped in warmth, she only felt the biting cold at this moment. She opened her mouth and said, "My grandma..."
Min Yu flattened her fingers and simply said, "Go check on her."
"Okay." Huo Yao nodded and let him lead her into the alley.
The mechanical back makes it almost impossible to blend in with the person who can remain calm no matter what happens.
Zhuo Yun watched from behind and sighed heavily.

When Huo Yao and Min Yu walked to the gate of the yard, the gate was not closed. A white cloth had been hung on the door. She stood at the door and looked inside from afar.
The once deserted yard was now filled with many neighbors. A simple shed had been built in the empty space, with a coffin placed underneath.
Lu Xia was wearing dark clothes and a black armband. She was talking to someone in the yard. She seemed to have noticed something and suddenly raised her head to look towards the gate.
