Huo Yanxi frowned when Lu Xia grabbed his arm, but he did not pull his hand away. "What is it?"
Lu Xia blinked. There was a playful and cute look on her exquisitely made-up face. "I've been filming a show and haven't visited my parents in a while. I feel bad about it. Since Yaoyao just came back from the countryside, I'm sure she's not used to it. I want to stay home for a few days to spend some time with my parents and also familiarize Yaoyao with them."
Huo Yanxi contemplated for a few seconds before he nodded. "Sure. We'll be more at ease with you taking care of Yaoyao."
Lu Xia grinned and nodded. She tilted her head slightly and raised her chin at Huo Yao. Then she let go of Huo Yanxi and sat in the front passenger seat.
She looked like the owner of the car.
Huo Yao raised her brow and smiled under her mask. She did not say anything and opened the back door unhurriedly.

On the way back, Lu Xia kept telling Huo Yanxi about her participation in the talent show after joining the girl group. From time to time, she would glance at Huo Yao, who had taken off her mask, through the rearview mirror, hoping to see a trace of envy on her face.
However, Huo Yao looked languid. Other than looking down at her phone, she was clearly immersed in her own world and did not seem to care about what others said.
Lu Xia's sense of superiority suffered an epic setback.
Lu Xia told herself that Huo Yao was just a country bumpkin from a small county and did not understand the entertainment industry. That was why she could not understand what she was saying.
She stopped talking about the entertainment industry and deliberately turned her head to look at Huo Yao. "Yaoyao, we were born in the same year. You should be in the third year of high school, right?" Huo Yao nodded.
Huo Yao's slender fingers paused on the phone screen. A moment later, she raised her head slowly. The warm light in the car shone on her face, creating a faint halo that diluted the sharpness between her brows.
She replied calmly, "Uh huh."
Lu Xia's eyes flickered. She felt that Huo Yao looked inexplicably seductive, especially when her voice sounded a little hoarse from smoking.
Lu Xia composed herself and put on a smile. "I heard from my mother that when you left my grandmother's house, you had already completed the school transfer procedures."
She purposely emphasized the words' my mother 'and' my grandmother '. Of course, if one didn't listen carefully, they wouldn't be able to tell.
Huo Yao's lips curved up as she glanced at her with an ambiguous smile.
Lu Xia's breath stagnated. She looked away subconsciously and did not look at her. Her voice was not as natural as before. "Have you chosen a school? Do you need my dad to help? I heard from my mom that your grades weren't that good … "
"It's fine. I've already chosen the school," interrupted Huo Yao casually.
Lu Xia was stunned. The word 'okay' was stuck in her throat. After a while, she asked with a stiff smile, "Have you decided? Which school?"
Huo Yanxi, who was driving, glanced at the rearview mirror in surprise.
Due to work, Huo Yanxi was not at home often. However, he knew that his parents had been worried about his sister, who had grown up in a small town, being switched at home. They were worried about which school she should transfer to and which school she should go to.
