Chapter 1313: The History Of The Jade

Min Yu said nothing, but Old Madam Yangs voice could be heard over the phone.

Yao, have you been busy recently?

Huo Yao would call Old Madam Yang every week at the same time without fail. Old Madam Yang did not receive any call from Huo Yao in the past couple of days, so she got worried and called.

Granny, this is Yu. Min Yu went quiet briefly before he spoke.

Old Madam Yang was caught by surprise when she heard Min Yus voice. She did not expect him to answer the phone. She quickly snapped out of her surprise and said, Huh? Hi, Yu. Where is Yao?

Min Yu raised his head and glanced at the young woman lying on the hospital bed. He tightened his fists slightly, but he sounded completely normal as he said, Shes busy conducting experiments at school. Do you need her for anything? Since there is no signal in the laboratory, she probably did not bring her phone in.

Old Madam Yang did not understand how an experiment worked, but she knew what it meant to have no signal. She instantly felt relieved that Huo Yao was fine.

She smiled and replied. Nothing. She usually calls me at a fixed time, but I have not heard from her in two days, so I was worried.

When Min Yu realized why she was calling, he said, She will call you once she is free.

Its fine. It doesnt matter when she replies. Tell her to get some rest after shes done working, reminded Old Madam Yang in concern.

Min Yu stood in the hospital ward holding the phone. He simply kept listening without the slightest impatience.

When Old Madam Yang was finally done, she suddenly asked. Oh yes. Does she go home at night?

Min Yu paused briefly. He did not quite understand why Old Madam Yang was asking about this. He replied. She has been staying on the campus recently.

Old Madam Yang promptly stopped laughing the moment she heard this. Since she is living on the campus, why doesnt she even have time to call? Did something happen to her?

Old Madam Yang knew Huo Yaos habits and personality well.

No matter how busy things got, Huo Yao always made time to call her.

Min Yu did not expect Old Madam Yang to catch on to this. He simply denied it. Youre overthinking it.

Shes my granddaughter and I brought her up, so I know her best. Old Madam Yang paused before she continued. Yu, tell me the truth. Did something happen to her?

Min Yu pondered to himself. Old Madam Yang seemed to know that something had happened to Huo Yao. Considering Huo Yaos condition, he might have managed to make excuses for Huo Yao today, but he could not go on lying if she remained unconscious.

He decided to tell Old Madam Yang the truth. She has been unconscious for three days. We dont know why this is happening and not even the doctors have any answers.

Old Madam Yang paused and asked him immediately. Is her body temperature unusually low?

Min Yu raised his head slightly in surprise. How did you know?

Old Madam Yang promptly thought about the past. She acknowledged softly and replied. I dont know why this happens to her either. When she was around three years old, this happened to her. She slept for five days in a row. Her grandfather and I kept taking her to all the hospitals, but no one could treat her.

For five days?

Min Yu asked urgently. Then what happened?

A folk healer told us she was fine and gave us a piece of jade. Old Madam Yang paused and explained. I gave it to you the last time you were here.
