Huo Guining immediately put on a cheerful face and waved to Huo Yueze through the window.

Seeing her lack of enthusiasm, Huo Yueze thought about telling some jokes to cheer her up.

But Huo Yueze's jokes were nothing short of disastrous, as they were all terrible puns.

"A chocolate bar and a tomato got into a fight. The chocolate won. Do you know why?"

Huo Guining shook her head.

"Because the chocolate bar!"

Huo Guining remained silent for a moment.

Huo Yueze, however, was thoroughly amused and continued with the next one...

"So, two people fell into a trap. The dead one is called 'dead person'. Guess what the living one is called?"

Huo Guining shook her head numbly.

"He's called 'Help!' Hahaha!"

By the time they got out of the car, Huo Guining's head was spinning with chocolate bars and what the living person was called...

She felt dizzy, and her chest felt uncomfortable.

Noticing her poor condition, Huo Yueze asked, "Sister, are you hungry?"

Huo Guining nodded.

Zuo Qinfang, who had no afternoon classes, had arrived home earlier than the two.

By now, the dining room table was set with dishes.

Seeing Huo Yueze bringing Guining home, Zuo Qinfang smiled warmly and said, "You're back."

The orange light cast upon her gave Huo Guining a sudden feeling of déjà vu.

In her previous life, her mother had also smiled like this, waiting for her to come home.

"We're back," Huo Guining smiled, "Hello, Aunt. The food smells delicious..."

...

As Huo Guining's car disappeared from view, Huo Xiaozheng also got into his car and set off.

Due to the sudden business trip, Huo Xiaozheng had brought Xi Chuan along.

"Oh? Isn't this Guining's little backpack?" Xi Chuan picked up the pink Mickey Mouse backpack from the passenger seat, sighing with a smile, "It's quite heavy."

Huo Xiaozheng let out a short laugh.

"Give it to me."

He took the backpack from Xi Chuan and indeed found it rather heavy.

He unzipped the backpack, frowning, "What's in here that makes it so heavy..."

It turned out to be the paint set he had given her, along with the little gold lock from Zheng Jinxiu, paintbrushes, an iPad, small toys, and tissues.

She's carrying quite a lot, Huo Xiaozheng thought.

Inside the pink backpack was a small zippered pocket that seemed to hold a white transparent bag.

Huo Xiaozheng opened it, intending to tidy things up for her.

In the transparent bag were clearly a strip of white pills.

The small bag also contained some loose, neatly cut white pills.

They appeared to be the same as the uncut ones.

Huo Xiaozheng turned the package over, puzzled, and saw the name of the medication printed on the back: "Cetirizine Hydrochloride Tablets."

He took out his phone and looked up the use of the drug.
