Huo Yao composed herself and nodded nonchalantly. "Yuan Xi? That's her."
Yuan Huan glanced at the data on the laptop in front of Huo Yao. He gently twirled the black ring on his finger behind his back and said, "She hasn't been in a good state of mind lately. I'm not sure if she got into trouble at school."
Huo Yao's words were similar to what Yuan Xi's mother had said in the afternoon.
She paused before she said, "I'm not too sure. Perhaps you can ask her roommates."
Yuan Huan smiled. "Uh huh. I heard Xiaoxi mention you a lot, so I thought you would know about her condition."
Huo Yao shook her head and typed slowly on the keyboard. She did not continue the conversation with Yuan Huan.
Seeing this, Yuan Hen did not continue to talk about Yuan Xi. After these days of interaction, he could see that this girl was an extremely cold person.
She was a quiet person and was very guarded. She would not easily show off her abilities in front of others.
Talking too much about someone like her would only make her feel disgusted.
Since his little sister was so protective of Huo Yao, it meant that they were close. What he said earlier was just a tip of the iceberg.
Yuan Huan turned to leave.
Huo Yao did not even bat an eye. Her eyes were fixed on the laptop screen the entire time.

Huo Yao received a call from Yuan Xi while she was waiting for lunch after she finished her work at school.
Yuan Xi's nasal voice was clearly sickly. "I'll be back in school after a few days of rest. Don't worry about me, Sister Yao."
Huo Yao sat cross-legged on the couch with a book on her lap. She leaned back and asked casually. "You don't sound well. How did you get sick all of a sudden?"
Yuan Xi shrunk back into the blanket. Her lips were pale without a trace of blood, and her eyes were hollow and lifeless. She sniffled and replied, "Maybe it's because I stayed up late to play games and didn't close the window."
This was different from what Mother Yuan and Yuan Huan had told her. Huo Yao contemplated before she said, "Your older brother asked me if you ran into any trouble at school."
Yuan Xi's hand trembled and her phone slipped under the blanket. She hurriedly picked it up and put it back to her ear. She could not care less about anything else as she asked anxiously. "Why would he tell you about this? What else did he say? Did he ask you to come see me? "
Huo Yao raised her brow slightly when she heard him lose his composure. "He didn't say anything else. He didn't ask me to come and see you either."
Earlier, the girl had mentioned a few times that she should try to avoid contact with her big brother. As for the reason, she did not tell him.
So now it seemed that Yuan Huan's target was her?
But what was it about her that Yuanhuan cared about?
Whether it was the school's experimental project or the medical school, it didn't seem to have anything to do with it, right?
Huo Yao was amazed.
Yuan Xi was surprised that Yuan Huan did not mention inviting Huo Yao over. She felt that it was not his style. She held her phone tightly for a long time before she said in a muffled voice, "No matter what he says, just ignore him. He is up to no good."
Yuan Xi paused. When she was about to speak again, there was a knock on the door. She turned sideways and looked at the door.
The door opened and Mother Yuan walked in with Yuan Hen following behind her.
Yuan Xi's pupils shrank slightly. Her fingers moved, and she hung up the phone without batting an eyelid. Then, she stuffed the phone under her pillow.
