Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Huo Yao failed to detect the strange look on the old lady’s face. Her phone rang at that moment and she retrieved it from her pocket to see that it was her second older brother calling.

Huo Yao looked at her grandmother and said, “Oh yes, Grandma. My second older brother is here to visit you and is waiting downstairs now.”

The moment the old lady heard Huo Yao, the sad look on her face was swiftly replaced with shock.

Then she composed herself and said, “Is it your biological second older brother? Hurry up and bring him over.”

“Mhm,” replied Huo Yao. Huo Yao noticed how flustered the old lady was looking.

She patted and straightened her short hair. Huo Yao saw this and could not help teasing her. “Grandma, there’s no need to be nervous. He’s family.”

The moment her grandmother heard this, she put down her hand somewhat shyly as she said, “It’s the first time I’m seeing him, so I want to leave a good impression.”

Huo Yao laughed. Then she helped her straighten out some of the white hair on her forehead and said, “You’re perfect as always.”

Huo Yao brought Huo Tingrui up to the ward very quickly.

“Grandma, this is my second older brother, Huo Tingrui,” said Huo Yao as she introduced him. She took the supplements which he had bought, and placed them on the cabinet.

Huo Tingrui’s eyes landed on the old lady. Her complexion was wan due to ill-health, but she seemed high spirited. There was a kindly look about her, so it was no wonder that Huo Yao missed her.

Huo Tingrui gathered his thoughts and bowed politely to the old lady.

He smiled and said, “Old Madam Yang, how do you do? Sorry about visiting at the last minute and disturbing your rest.”

The old lady smiled as she shook her head and replied. “No no. I’m happy you could come, Tingrui. Don’t keep standing there. Come over and sit down.”

“Mhm,” said Huo Tingrui before sitting down on a chair.

He glanced at Huo Yao before he said, “Thank you for taking such good care of my little sister all these years. She couldn’t have turned out so well without your guidance.”

A look of guilt appeared on the old woman’s face when she replied. “I barely did anything since she was so intelligent to begin with. She was the one who ended up suffering because of me.”

Huo Yao also pulled a chair and sat down by the old lady’s bedside. She raised her brow and said rather arrogantly, “I admit that I’m brilliant, but I wouldn’t say I have suffered. After all, have you seen anyone else ending up as bright as me after suffering?”

“You... Can’t you be a little more modest?” asked her grandmother, who was completely tickled.

“I am modest when I have to be,” said Huo Yao as she winked cheekily at her grandmother.

The old lady laughed as she shook her head while she held Huo Yao’s hand.

Huo Tingrui could not help lament in his heart when he saw how natural and affectionate his younger sister and her grandmother’s interactions were. It was completely different from the atmosphere back home when she was with her biological family.

No wonder Huo Yao had turned their parents down and put off coming back for a year when they initially had gone to pick her up.

Huo Yao’s grandmother was her closest kin who had raised her for over ten years, so it was impossible for her to forsake the family ties suddenly. Anyone with conscience wouldn’t be able to do it.

Huo Tingrui could not help recalling how his foster sister reacted after the baby swapping incident came to light. The Huo family had always been kind to her.

But she left the Huo family without any hesitation and even changed her surname to her biological father’s at lightning speed.

Although Lu Xia had tried to justify by saying that her biological parents forced her to do this and that she was helpless, her actions had left them... bitterly disappointed.

Huo Tingrui pursed his lips. The moment comparison was made, many underlying issues came to the surface.
