Ten minutes later Huo Tingrui put the noodles in a bowl. He placed it on the table and said, “Go on and try it.”

Huo Yao picked up her chopsticks and took a bite. She raised her head to say, “Not bad.”

Huo Tingrui sat down next to her. He raised his brow and said, “Of course. I started cooking when I was eight.”

That meant he had cooked for over ten years and was an experienced cook.

Huo Yao could not help mulling over it.

She was blowing up her clan’s pharmaceutical laboratory when she was eight.

“Oh yes. After you went to the bathroom at the hospital yesterday, Granny told me to take care of you. I found it odd and wanted to tell you, but it slipped my mind,” said Huo Tingrui apologetically.

He continued after a moment with regret clear in his voice. “I didn’t know she was trying to leave. If I were more careful, this might not have happened.”

Huo Yao’s hand stilled. She looked at Huo Tingrui, who was blaming himself.

She said calmly, “It’s not your fault. It would have happened even if you did manage to prevent it from happening this time. She couldn’t get used to living in the city, so it was better for her to go home.”

Huo Tingrui shook his head and said with a bitter smile on his face, “I was trying to comfort you, but you ended up consoling me.”

Huo Yao smiled. She lowered her head and continued eating.

Huo Tingrui looked at his quiet little sister and felt emotional.

Huo Yao did not panic and remained calm in the face of Huo Yanxi’s fierce questioning. If the same thing had happened to Lu Xia, she would have bawled her eyes out and ended up causing a misunderstanding.

They said kids who cried, got candy. Hence, it was no surprise that his baby sister’s calm, stubborn, and proud personality made her lose out.

Huo Tingrui sighed inwardly. but chatted with Huo Yao casually without bringing up Huo Yanxi.

The next day, Huo Yao walked out of the exam hall after the final integrated arts paper. Lu Xia came walking over when she spotted her in the corridor.

“Let’s talk,” said Lu Xia. Though she looked at Huo Yao with a normal expression, her tone was condescending.

Huo Yao looked up and replied impatiently. “I’m not free.”

Saying so, she made a move to brush past Lu Xia.

Lu Xia narrowed her eyes before she turned and followed her. She said in a raised voice, “No matter what, you have gone back to the Huo family, so stop getting involved with Granny. That will be best for both our families. After all, you don’t want to see everyone getting upset because of you, right?”

Huo Yao paused in her steps. She glanced at her sideways with a cold look.

She asked Lu Xia in a lazy voice. “Are you teaching me how to conduct myself?”

Lu Xia was startled by the look in her eyes. But she quickly composed herself and continued indifferently. “I’m just trying to tell you not to be greedy.”

Huo Yao smiled as she digested her words and replied. “That sounds novel.”

She snorted gently before calmly walking away.

Lu Xia stood in her spot and frowned as she watched Huo Yao leave. She suddenly recalled Huo Yanxi’s unusual reaction last night when she had called to explain. After contemplating for a moment, she turned to walk down the stairs.

Lu Xia retrieved her phone from the desk after returning to the Rocket Class. She composed a message and sent it to Huo Yanxi.
