Chapter 1464: Unwelcome

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lu Xia was unsurprised to see Huo Yao. She paused for a couple of seconds before walking toward the entrance.

“You’re not welcome here.” Lu Xia spoke expressionlessly. Perhaps due to the decline of her family, she looked a lot more mature now and did not seem as proud as her old self.

Only one thing remained the same. She detested Huo Yao to the core.

Huo Yao looked at the black bandage on Lu Xia’s arm before looking at Lu Xia’s face calmly. “I will leave after seeing Grandma.”

“Grandmother?” Lu Xia laughed gently and spoke in a sarcastic tone. “Where were you when she kept calling for you? You weren’t even there for her at her deathbed. What gives you the right to see her now?”

!!

Huo Yao clenched her fists with some stray hair flowing down from her forehead to her eyes. She continued looking at Lu Xia as she said, “I will leave after I see her.”

“It’s impossible. Dream on.” Lu Xia sounded firm and determined. “If you genuinely care about her, you should leave her in peace and stop disturbing her. After all, you are not her blood, so it makes no difference for you to see her.”

“I will leave once I get to see her.” Huo Yao did not get upset when Lu Xia tried to stop her from seeing Old Madam Yang. She even sounded imploring when she spoke.

Min Yu felt terrible. He stepped forward and looked at Lu Xia coldly. “She’s here to pay her respects to Old Madam Yang. Do you really have to make things difficult for her?”

The moment Lu Xia made eye contact with Min Yu, she instinctively veered her eyes without daring to look at him.

She knew Min Yu. He was from one of the most powerful families in the country, so she could not be rude to him.

If she refused to let Huo Yao see Old Madam Yang, the Huo family might not do anything to her. On the other hand, offending the Min family was as good as ruining her future.

Lu Xia bit her lip as she contemplated. After weighing the pros and cons, she decided to step aside and give way to them.

Min Yu turned to look at Huo Yao. “Let’s go in.”

Huo Yao acknowledged softly before she stepped into the compound.

He Xiaoman walked out of the house after Huo Yao and Min Yu entered the compound. She looked at Huo Yao annoyingly. “How dare you come here?”

Even though Lu Xia was unhappy about letting Huo Yao enter the compound, she quickly walked over toward He Xiaoman with composure. She reached her hand out and held her mother by the arm, whispering something to her.

He Xiaoman eventually suppressed her anger and left huffily without saying a word.

Huo Yao glanced at Lu Xia before she headed to Old Madam Yang’s bedroom.

Old Madam Yang was already dressed in a shroud as she lay peacefully on the bed. It seemed as though she was just sleeping.

Huo Yao walked over stiffly. After looking at Old Madam Yang for some time, she finally sat down by the bed.

This old lady was the closest thing she had to family for over ten years. She did not understand why Old Madam Yang would suddenly pass away. They were just talking about bringing her to the Huo family and spending some quality time together.

Huo Yao reached her hands out and gently straightened her clothes even though they were completely tidy. Her grandmother’s face looked very pale and serene.

She said nothing and simply kept looking at Old Madam Yang intently.

Min Yu sighed gently as he watched from the side. He knew no amount of consolation would help Huo Yao at a time like this, so he turned to leave the room to give her some privacy.

After stepping out of the room, he closed the door behind him.

Lu Xia was standing in the corridor. The moment she saw Min Yu step out of the room, she lowered her eyes and walked over.
