Huo Yulin scratched his head as he thought about their eldest uncle's stern face and could not help feeling a chill run down his back.
He promptly said, "He is a little difficult to get along with. You will find out slowly when you have the chance to see him."
"Okay. Help me thank him for the gift." Huo Yao waved the box in her hand.
"Uh huh." Huo Yulin nodded. "It's getting late. Have an early night."
"Sure. You too." Huo Yao took the gifts and closed the door before pausing to stick her head out through the gap in the door. She asked him sweetly. "Oh yes. Do you still have the incense?"
"Uh huh. I brought them with me."
Huo Yao replied with a nod. "Good night." She closed the door before long.
A faint smile suddenly appeared on Huo Yulin's skinny face before he turned and headed back to his room next door.

Huo Yao retrieved a penknife from her desk drawer and opened the big box that Huo Yulin had given her.
