Chapter 733 Passbook
Min Yu thought for two seconds, then handed the box over. But before handing it to Huo Yao, he said, "I can give it to you, but you can't return it."
Huo Yao glanced at him and said, "...I understand."
Only then did Min Yu put the box in her palm.
Huo Yao said good night, then left with the box.
Seeing this, Min Yu shook his head slightly.
Soon Huo Yao returned to her room, closed the door, sat on the bed, and then she opened the box.
In the box was a small white jade pendant. There were no extra patterns on the pendant, but its shape was rather peculiar, like a fish, but not a fish.
Huo Yaoduan took a few glances at it and found that the quality of the jade was indeed not a priceless antique.
Soon, she put the things back into the box, closed the lid, and after thinking about what the old lady had said on the phone before, she put the box into the suitcase.

In the next two days, Huo Yao no longer tinkered with her alchemy furnace, but stayed with the old lady.
The old lady originally thought that her daughter would call to question Yu, so she would rush back the next day. She looked worried, but she was relieved when she saw that her daughter did not come back.
After all, she was reluctant to let Huo Yao leave so early because she didn't know if they would have the chance to meet again in the future.
Huo Yao originally planned to book a flight back to City S the next day, but seeing that the old lady was in a low mood, he thought about it and postponed his return for a day.
On the day she left, the old lady got up at five in the morning, went upstairs to Huo Yao's room, and secretly slipped her a note, "Yao, this is the little savings that grandma has saved over the years, and I'm saving the money you gave me before for you."
Huo Yao sat on the bedside, without even looking at how much money was in it, and instead stuffed the note back to her, "I have money to use."
Seeing this, the old lady said with an aggrieved face: "This is a gift from grandma. You don't want it. Do you think the money is too little?"
Huo Yao pressed his brow.
“There’s nothing I can do if the money is too little. Grandma has no other source of income except for her pension. Even if I want more, I can’t get it…” The old lady began her muttering.
Huo Yao felt a headache after hearing this. He sighed and quickly took the item back. "Don't say anything. I want it."
The old lady pursed her lips in satisfaction and said, "That's pretty good."
Soon, she grumbled a few more words and went downstairs to prepare breakfast for everyone.
Huo Yao was no longer sleepy. After the old lady left, she got up, packed her things one by one, and when she put the passbook in her bag, she opened it and took a look.
When he saw the total amount of 350,000 yuan below and thought about his already empty wallet, he fell into silence.
Even the old lady is richer than her.

The flight was for noon, so the group left the old lady's house after breakfast.
The person who came to pick them up was Cheng Ming, who played the role of the rental car driver very well. On the way, Huo Yao even chatted with him for a few words.
Cheng Ming was flattered and after sending the person to the city airport, he reported the work of the trip to the general manager. Of course, he also specifically pointed out that the eldest lady was a very easy-to-get-along person.
This made Huo Changfeng a little unhappy, so he said on the phone, "Province Y has a project to follow up, so you can stay there."
Fu County, where the old lady lives, is under the jurisdiction of Province Y.
Cheng Ming, who had already booked a flight back to S City at 1pm, heard this: "???"
What did he do wrong?
