Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

Still baffled, Min Yu said nothing in reply.

Grandma Yang forced a smile and went on. "This morning, Yaoyao came, and bought me so many things. But neither of us expected that my daughter would come… My daughter is mean, and she never liked Yaoyao."

"My daughter used harsh language. So, Yaoyao stayed here for less than an hour and left in anger."

"Yaoyao must be angry. That must be why she is not coming in person to drop this."

Grandma Yang teared up, and would not let go of Min Yu's arm as if letting him go would mean that he would not listen to her and abandon her. Grandma Yang was blaming herself.

Min Yu got a general idea of what happened. No wonder that girl asked him to help her deliver the box.

But, given how mature the girl was, she would not be so easily displeased.

When Grandma Yang stabilized a bit, Min Yu comforted her tenderly. "Grandma Yang, don't worry so much about it. Huo Yao is just worried that she will run into your daughter if she comes again. That is why she asked me to bring this to you."

Grandma Yang listened to his explanation with a pinch of salt. "Do… do you mean it?"

Min Yu nodded. He was a man of integrity, and his deep eyes seemed to contain a persuasive power that made people trust him.

Grandma Yang's disturbed mind miraculously calmed down. She picked up the wooden box from the side table.

She flipped open the clip-on button although Min Yu was still here. When she saw the incense sticks inside, a warm smile spread over her face, unknowingly.

Her granddaughter was not abandoning her. She still cared about her.

She had sensed her grandmother's troubled sleep and despite being wronged by her foster mother, she still asked Min Yu to send her the incense sticks.

Grandma Yang wiped her tears off and closed the box. She said to Min Yu, in an embarrassed voice, "I forgot myself for a moment there. Sorry."

Min Yu was still staring at the wooden box in Grandma Yang's hand. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "It's okay. I understand."

"Yaoyao is a good kid. She could figure that I was suffering from insomnia, so she bought those nerve-soothing incense sticks for me… Alas, my daughter is not fortunate enough to be Yaoyao's mom."

Grandma Yang heaved a long sigh. She staggered to a cabinet, opened a drawer and put the wooden box inside.

Min Yu listened patiently as Grandma Yang continued to chat. There was something on his mind, but no one knew what it was.

Half an hour later, Min Yu left Yang Qiuhua's apartment.

Zhuo Yun noticed that Min Yu got into the car in a preoccupied manner. He couldn't help but ask. "What happened?"

Min Yu looked up and gave Zhuo Yun a casual look. "Nothing."

Zhuo Yun did not pursue the topic any further.

Min Yu tapped his finger on his knee every now and then. All of a sudden, he came up with an idea. He took out his phone and sent Huo Yao a message telling her that he had finished the task.

Huo Yao probably did not have her phone with her at that time because it was 10 minutes later that Min Yu finally got a reply. It was a simple one with merely two words, 'Thank you'.

Nothing else.

Min Yu grinned. He must have grown used to Huo Yao's indifferent attitude.

He began to type another message: [Where did you buy the nerve-soothing incense sticks for your grandma? Someone in my family is suffering from insomnia as well.]
