1108: Huo Tingrui’s Second Treatment (Part 2)

Huo Tingrui’s Second Treatment (Part 2)

Huo Yao secretly retrieved the medical solution and syringe from her pocket. She injected it into Huo Tingrui's system while he was not looking.2

Huo Yao removed the last silver needle from his body ten minutes later. Her face was slightly pale from exhaustion. She glanced at her second older brother. "All done."

Huo Tingrui had broken out into a sweat. He lay on the bed completely exhausted. He was so tired that he did not want to move a muscle.

"Oh yes. I suggest you do not go out for the next couple of days." Huo Yao reminded her second older brother as she put away her sterilized needles.

"Why not?" asked Huo Tingrui quizzically and turned to look at her.

Huo Yao tilted her head sideways. "You will keep using the toilet during this time."

Huo Tingrui recalled a scene he had seen on television programs before and instantly asked. "Did you just perform detox on me?"

Huo Yao raised her brow. "Something like that."

Huo Tingrui's face twitched. He could not believe that she was capable of doing this.

"Brother Tingrui, have an early night. I am heading back to my room." Huo Yao carried her box and went back to her room without lingering there for any longer.

After Huo Yao was back in her room, she sat on the couch thinking for over ten minutes. She rubbed her brows to alleviate her fatigue and finally opened her eyes.

Huo Yao felt inside her pocket and took out the remaining analysis solution. The fluid was light blue and translucent. She stood up and walked into the bathroom with the analysis solution in her hand.

After opening the cap, she narrowed her eyes slightly. She held the tube tightly, slowly poured the contents into the toilet bowl, and flushed it.

Sigh.

Huo Yao sighed softly before tossing the empty tube into the trash can.

After coming out of the bathroom, she did not read or turn on her computer. She simply curled up in bed and pulled her blanket over her head.

Her phone suddenly rang from the bedside table.

Huo Yao quietly lay in bed for some time before finally pulling down the blanket. She reached her hand out for her phone and checked the caller ID. She paused briefly before speaking.

"Are you asleep already?" Min Yu's cool voice came from over the phone.

Huo Yao closed her eyes and acknowledged unenthusiastically. "Uh huh."

Min Yu stood in front of the French windows holding his phone. "Are you in a bad mood?"

Huo Yao finally opened her eyes. She paused for a few seconds before she gave a stifled answer. "Kind of."

"What happened?" Min Yu looked out the window. It was late at night, so everything was very quiet.

Huo Yao took her blanket and covered herself with it. "It's nothing."

Min Yu went quiet for a few seconds but did not continue probing. He simply said, "Don't let it bother you."

"Uh huh," acknowledged Huo Yao softly.

Perhaps due to her preoccupation, her voice had lost its usual lack of restraint and sounded stifled. Now, she sounded like any other vulnerable girl.

Her voice was slightly helpless.

Min Yu gathered his thoughts. "Have a good night."

Huo Yao responded. "Okay. Good night."

"Good night."

After Huo Yao had hung up the phone, Min Yu pulled the phone down from his ear. The phone screen had already gone dark. He tapped on the phone to unlock it and sent a text message.

Huo Yao was about to put down the phone when she heard a text message notification. She tapped on her phone for a look.

[I heard that people feel happy when they receive red packets. Just trying my luck here!]

Huo Yao was caught by surprise. Then, she received several notifications informing her she had received money in her account.

When Huo Yao got the notifications, her fingers hovered over the screen for some time until she finally shrank her head back. She inexplicably snapped out of her worry and her mood lifted.
