The next day.
It was Saturday, so Huo Yao did not go to school.
In the afternoon, Song Ning's phone rang on the coffee table. She was tidying up in her room, so she did not hear it.
Huo Yao was sitting on the couch texting someone. She sat up and looked at her phone screen. She paused for two seconds before she suddenly raised her head and picked up her phone.
The number on the screen was rather familiar.
Huo Yao glanced at the second floor before she picked up the call.
The call was from Song Qi.
Before Huo Yao said anything, Song Qi spoke first.
He had organized a banquet in the name of the Song family and had invited people from the elite families to attend. That was why he called to tell Huo Yao about it.
He had agreed to Huo Yao's request last night.
After Song Qi finished speaking, he realized that there was no sound coming from the other end of the line. He could not help lowering the phone to check if it was still in the line.
When he saw that the call was still on, he was about to ask when he heard a young and cold voice.
"What time is it?" asked Huo Yao calmly.
She was not surprised by the call.
Given how Song Qi and Song Qi had gone to great lengths to save Old Master Song, it was expected that they would agree to Huo Yao's request last night.
However, there was no way the banquet was for an apology.
Song Qi was stunned for two seconds as he held his phone. He did not expect Huo Yao to pick up the call. He quickly composed himself and said, "Seven o 'clock. Yaoyao, where are you staying now? Why don't I come over..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard the beeping sound of the phone being hung up.
Song Qi's words came to an abrupt halt, and his face stiffened.
A mocking look flashed across Song Qi's eyes as he sat opposite him.
You just know the president of the medicine association. You tried so hard to please him, but he still slapped you in the face.
Song Qi pursed his lips but maintained his composure. "Is it settled?"
Song Qi composed himself and replied nonchalantly. He put his phone away and reminded her. "The banquet tonight is very important. You have to control your temper."
Hearing this, Song Qi knew that Song Qi was still complaining about what happened yesterday. She couldn't help but raise her hand to point at her neck and said mockingly, "I only said a few words yesterday, and I was inexplicably injured by big sister's bodyguard. How would I dare to offend her again?"
Only then did Song Qi know that Song Qi's neck was injured. After a moment of silence, he said, "No matter what, the old master's illness still depends on that child."
"That's why I don't think I'll go tonight. I don't want to lose control of my temper and mess things up again," Song Qi said coldly.
Song Qi pressed his forehead. "Don't throw a tantrum."
Song Qi chuckled softly but didn't say anything. Everyone in the industry was invited that night. It was impossible for her not to go.

After Huo Yao hung up, she contemplated for a while before she deleted the call history on her phone and put it back in its place.
When Song Ning came downstairs, she had just returned to the sofa.
Song Ning went to the kitchen to pour a glass of warm water. She returned to the living room and picked up her phone.
Huo Yao glanced at her and said, "Oh yes, Mom. My teacher is looking for me, so I won't be having dinner at home."
Song Ning raised her head quizzically. "He's looking for you on a weekend?"
"Uh huh. I made an appointment a few days ago to discuss academic issues." Huo Yao looked as normal as ever, and no one could tell that she was lying.
Song Ning did not suspect anything. "Okay. Come back early after you're done."
Huo Yao nodded. She got up from the sofa and went to her room to get a jacket. Before long, she left the villa.
