It had been a little over three months since Hu Lei had left Supreme City, and Hu Lei was anxious to return. It was a novel thing for her to feel the need to go back home. For countless years, she had been adrift, not knowing where she would be in the next moment.
"You know that you are welcome to stay here for as long as you want." Grandpa Huo looked at Hu Lei with expectation as they were having dinner.
During the time Hu Lei had been with him, he had come to know her, and he was even fonder of her. He felt that he would be lonely again without her presence.
"Grandpa, you know that I can't. I have to return home." She smiled as she thought about Zhong Feng.
"Dad, she is a married woman. She has her life." Huo Mei chimed in.
Over the last months, her relationship with her father had improved. Though this could be attributed to spending more time in the same house, there was an additional factor. As she treated Hu Lei, she had learnt a lot about Hu Ming.
