Chapter 807 - Are You Moving Out Again? Chapter 807: Are You Moving Out Again?
Lei Xiao scratched his head and smiled sheepishly. “I don’t think I will get promoted this time. After all, I just got promoted last year. If I get promoted again, people are going to get jealous.”
He got promoted last year using Huo Yao’s data, so a lot of his peers were already envious of him.
The appraisal for outstanding performance only took place every three years. His colleague was poised to win the award earlier. Without Huo Yao’s data, Lei Xiao would not have gotten it.
Huo Yao rapped her fingers on the table gently with a languid look on her exquisite face as she said nonchalantly, “Only unconfident people will think that envy is trouble.”
Lei Xiao felt deeply hurt.
Before long, the waiter brought the dishes over.
The food tasted good and suited Huo Yao’s palate, so she had one more bowl of rice. She contemplated as she ate and decided to bring Min Yu here when she treated him to dinner.
More importantly, the prices were decent.

Meanwhile, Min Yu sensed his nose itching the moment Huo Yao thought about him. He pulled out some tissues from the box kept on the coffee table.
Old Master Min was sitting on a mahogany chair with his back straight and had a walking stick in hand as he glared at his grandson. “Didn’t you just get home? Do you have to move? Are you trying to kill me?”
“The doctor says you are fit as a fiddle and won’t have problems living for another decade,’ replied Min Yu lazily.
The moment Old Master Min heard what Min Yu said, he automatically raised his walking stick and pointed it at Min Yu angrily, but he was unable to come up with anything to scold Min Yu.
Min Yu took a sip of tea. “Getting angry won’t do your health any good.”
The old man went speechless.
“!!!”
Min Yu put down the teacup and checked the time before standing up. “Grandpa, I have to go somewhere. See you.”
“Hang on. Let me ask you. Is she here?” said Old Master Min to his grandson as he tossed his fury to the back of his mind.
Min Yu looked at Old Master Min without saying a word.
Old Master Min cleared his throat uneasily and muttered. “I found out when you went to the airport to pick her up yesterday.”
“So?” Min Yu rubbed his forehead.
“When are you inviting her over for dinner?” sneered Old Master Min.
“She doesn’t have time. School is starting soon.” Min Yu refused him and turned to leave without lingering on any further.
He quickly disappeared through the main door.
Mrs. Min came out of the kitchen and saw that her son was nowhere to be seen. She turned to ask in surprise. “Dad, where is Yu?”
Mrs. Min was a refined woman and had the elegance of a high society lady, so she sounded cultured even when she spoke. Even though she was 45 years old, she remained beautiful. Time seemed to have left her face unscathed.
Old Master Min’s anger dissipated when he saw his daughter-in-law. However, he said huffily, “He’s gone.”
“It is almost time for lunch. Why did he have to go?” Mrs. Min was at a loss.
Old Master Min pursed his lips. “He also said that he is moving out again.”
Mrs. Min felt a headache coming on. “… Why is he moving out all of sudden?”
Old Master Min pounded his walking stick on the ground. “Heaven knows.”
Mrs. Min was accustomed to not having her son around, so she simply thought he was busy and said empathetically, “Since the family business keeps him very busy, just leave him be.”
Old Master Min glanced at his daughter-in-law. “He probably isn’t doing this for work.”
Mrs. Min was briefly stunned and did not quite understand what Old Master Min meant.
Old Master Min sneered. He stood up without explaining his cryptic remarks. “Let’s go eat.”

The next morning, Huo Yao went to Tsing University with her acceptance letter and other documents.
