"No wonder she has to avoid the townsfolk."
Xu Xingguang rode her electric scooter, leading Huo Wen'an down a one-way alley, and stopped in front of a small courtyard filled with morning glories. She looked at the three-story house behind the iron gate and said, "This is Yin Su's address."
Huo Wen'an gazed complexly at the courtyard before him and murmured, "Turns out she's so close to me."
Noticing that there were two parking spaces inside the yard but both were empty, she said, "No one's home, let's head back first."
"Okay."
Song Chi and the others were still collecting medicinal herbs on Cangshan, and no one was home. Xu Xingguang took Huo Wen'an into the kitchen, letting him assist her.
"Can you cut potato strips?" she asked Huo Wen'an.
"I can."
Huo Wen'an said, "When my adoptive mother had to work, I always cooked lunch for Huo Xin. Back then, I hated making potato strips the most, because it involved cutting them into slices first and then into strips."
