“I haven’t receive any calls from him yet,” replied Huo Yao with a straight face.

Huo Yao was not worried about Shangguan Yun getting lost. After all, the guy had the best luck ever. If anything, she should be more worried about her wallet. He seemed to have an uncanny talent for making her part with her money.

“Okay then. Just keep an eye out for his call. The guy has only gone out once in his life and has zero street smarts. Don’t be shocked if he does something stupid,” said Mi Wei.

Huo Yao raised her hand and rubbed her brow before she replied patronizingly. “Okay then. I have to go.”

Mi Wei parted his lips briefly before he said, “Bye-bye.”

After hanging up the phone, Mi Wei stood quietly in the herb garden for a few minutes. A few minutes later, he put down his watering can and left the garden.

Mi Wei went to the main compound where the family head resided, but she was not there. He pondered briefly before he went to the ancestral hall located behind the compound.

Tablets belonging to their family ancestors could be found in the ancestral hall. Three sticks of incense were still burning in the incense burner located on the altar. Someone had clearly placed them there not long ago.

Mi Wei walked up in front of the altar, reached his hands out to touch the incense burner and a stone door gradually opened on the right-hand side. He stepped through the door once it was open.

After walking downstairs for some time, he finally reached the end of the steps and a large stone room came into sight.

Only a single stone table was placed at the center of the stone room without any other embellishment. A slender woman with her long hair done up in a simple bun stood in front of the table.

Mi Wei glanced at the woman from behind before he quickly walked toward her.

Shangguan Tong kept looking at the stone table. As Mi Wei approached her, she pressed a button on the table and the scene in the room promptly changed.

The ceiling transformed into a starlit sky and it felt as though they had entered an alternate universe.

Shangguan Tong looked up at the sky and smiled mockingly before she said, “Shall we destroy this?”

Mi Wei raised his head and looked at her in surprise. “Why?”

Even though Shangguan Tong seemed young, she looked weary and completely numb. “I’m tired.”

When Shangguan Tong returned home a few years ago, she was covered in injuries. Ever since then, she became a lot quieter and even stopped going out. Even though he did not know what happened to her, it must have been bad.

“Did you make up your mind when you agreed to let Yun out?” asked Mi Wei softly with his hand on the table.

Shangguan Tong went quiet and looked at Mi Wei for some time without giving him an answer. “Why did you want to see me?”

“Yu just contacted me asking about your health.”

Shangguan Tong’s face softened up. “She has gone through a lot. I hope things can go well for her from now on.”

Mi Wei nodded. “I’m sure things will work out fine for her. I wonder why she suddenly asked about your health. Perhaps she was trying to sound me out.”

“What do you mean?” Shangguan Tong did not know why Huo Yao would suddenly mention this. “What did she say?”

“Nothing much really. I always have trouble reading her mind. Perhaps she was just concerned about you,” replied Mi Wei.

Shangguan Tong narrowed her eyes and said nothing as she went into deep thought.

After hanging up the phone, Huo Yao went back to her room and continued working on her paper.

Shortly after she created a new word document, her phone rang with a text message notification.

She glanced at her phone screen. It was a text message from her dear neighbor, so she tapped on it promptly. He had just sent her a business card.
