Chapter 725: The Countryside
"She..." The old lady was disappointed, and after a long while she said, "She is in her third year of high school, just like Yaoyao. She must be busy reviewing."
The fact is that her so-called biological granddaughter has never returned to her hometown, let alone visited her.
When she was taken to live in the city by her daughter, she noticed the disgust in her granddaughter's eyes. Although she didn't show a particularly disgusted look, how could she not understand the contempt from the bottom of her heart?
Only her Yao, even after returning to her biological parents' home, always kept her grandmother, who was not related to her by blood, in her heart, without any sense of estrangement.
Huo Yulin glanced at the old lady and saw that she looked neither sad nor happy. Perhaps she was disappointed in someone, or perhaps she had never had any expectations, which was why she had such a dull expression.
That’s right. Just now in the store, Lu Xia didn’t even have the courage to acknowledge her grandmother, so how could she care much about the old lady?
But judging from that woman's thoughts, her sudden return to see the old lady must be no good.
Thinking about this, Huo Yulin's brows darkened.
Not long after, Huo Yulin helped the old lady prepare the ingredients in the kitchen and then went out. It was raining and snowing outside, but not too heavily.
Huo Yulin stood outside the gate of the yard, took out his cell phone and called Cheng Ming.

After Lu Xia fled, he returned to the hotel.
In fact, she arrived at the county town yesterday. Seeing how backward the county town was, even the so-called most expensive hotels were not as good as the most ordinary hotels in big cities. This showed how shabby her grandmother's house must be.
So, she stayed in the hotel for one night and finally mustered up the courage to look for the old lady today. However, she didn't expect to meet someone here whom she thought she would never meet again in her life.
Huo Yulin would not appear here for no reason, so... it must be that Huo Yao who has returned.
Lu Xia was filled with resentment when she thought of Huo Yao. She had already returned to the Huo family, but he still kept coming to her grandmother's house and pretending to be so shameless.
Lu Xia paced back and forth in the room in annoyance. After thinking it over, she took out her cell phone and prepared to call He Xiaoman.
Just after she dialed the number, there was a knock on the door. So, before the call was connected, she hung up again, took her sunglasses and put them on, walked to the door, looked through the peephole, and saw that it was the hotel front desk, so she opened the door.
"Is there something wrong?" Lu Xia asked in a cold voice.
The receptionist said politely, "Excuse me, miss. There is a fire problem in our hotel. We need to trouble you to check out."
Lu Xia frowned, "Fire protection issue?"
"Yes, you don't want to stay in a hotel with potential safety hazards, right?" the receptionist said, pausing, "Of course, we will refund you double the room rate."
Lu Xia felt even worse after hearing that, but she couldn't do such a shameful thing as going to the hotel to argue like a country bitch. She pressed her eyebrows and said impatiently, "Alright, I get it."
He slammed the door shut with a bang.
What a shabby country place, even staying in a hotel is so uneasy.
After packing her luggage in a distracted manner, Lu Xia dragged her suitcase down to the first floor lobby and gave her ID card and room card to the front desk.
The front desk had already prepared the refund for the room. When she handed over the room card, she breathed a sigh of relief. Lu Xia didn't pay attention to the front desk clerk's expression. She took the money and walked out.
At this time, a few people who also wanted to stay in the hotel hurried in.
The rest is still being written o(╥﹏╥)o
