Huo Yao looked straight ahead at the headstone as she spoke up.
After hearing what she said, Lu Ziming finally came out from behind another headstone roughly three minutes later.
He slowly walked toward Huo Yao.
“How are you doing?” said Lu Ziming hesitantly as he looked at Huo Yao’s frail-looking face.
The Lu family had gone bankrupt and his parents were divorced thanks to her. In theory, he should hate her for this.
Huo Yao raised her head and glanced at Lu Ziming. “Are you waiting for me?”
When she got there, she could sense someone looking at her furtively, but she did not expect Lu Ziming to be the one.

“I’ll wait for you outside,” said Min Yu softly as he looked at Huo Yao.
“Uh huh,” acknowledged Huo Yao. After he had gone some distance, she turned around and said, “What did you want to say to me?”
Lu Ziming twisted his fingers nervously for some time before he finally said, “I have a message from Grandma.”
Huo Yao’s eyelashes fluttered slightly. The cold wind left some stray hair on the side of her face fluttering in the wind. As Lu Ziming spoke, her face became increasingly pale.
“…She told you not to be sad when she passed away. She wants you to let go of the past. You are her granddaughter no matter what and she loves you.” Lu Ziming thought about his grandmother before she lost consciousness. When she said these words to him, he could tell she was very adamant about it.
In reality, he did not quite understand why his grandmother wanted him to emphasize her last sentences.
In hindsight, Old Madam Yang probably wanted Huo Yao to know that she would always be family to her right before she died.
Huo Yao snapped out of her daze. Something struck her when Lu Ziming said Old Madam Yang mentioned she was her granddaughter no matter what. She composed herself before looking at Lu Ziming. “Thank you.”
Lu Ziming veered his eyes uneasily before he hurriedly explained. “Don’t misunderstand. I might be passing a message, but it doesn’t mean I have stopped hating you. I just wanted to keep my word since I promised Granny to pass the message.”
Huo Yao turned to look at the photo on the headstone with a soft look in her eyes. “I know.”
She knew what Old Madam Yang was trying to say to her.
Lu Ziming gritted his teeth and replied in a stifled tone. “I’m glad you understand.”
The moment he finished his sentence, he ran out of the cemetery.
Huo Yao continued standing where she was and looked at Lu Ziming for a moment after he was gone.
After some time, she parted her lips and whispered. “Granny, see you in the next life.”

She turned to walk out of the cemetery.
Min Yu’s car was parked outside. When Huo Yao walked out of the cemetery, he was standing by the car door answering the phone. He promptly raised his head and said a few words before hanging up the phone.
Min Yu held her hand when Huo Yao got to the car. He said, “Your third older brother just called.”
Huo Yao was caught by surprise.
“Your parents are taking the 9:00 pm flight. They will probably arrive at the airport in an hour.” Min Yu took off his coat and placed it on her. “They want to pay their respects to Old Madam Yang.”
Huo Yao acknowledged softly and said, “I’ll go pick them up.”
She was clearly in worse shape than when she first heard about her grandmother’s death. He paused for a couple of seconds and said, “Why don’t I pick them up? You hardly got any rest ever since you found out about her death. I can take care of it.”
Huo Yao smiled as she shook her head and insisted. “I’m good.”
Since Min Yu was unable to convince her otherwise, he did not persist.
Huo Yao pulled her coat together as she looked sideways behind her. She said to Zhuo Yun, “Can you send the boy back?”
She was referring to Lu Ziming behind her.
