She had almost forgotten how good some people were at swallowing money.
Huo Yao pressed her forehead. She suddenly regretted not locking Shangguan Yun's WeChat messages in her little black room.
However, it was not too late to blacklist him now.
Hence, Shangguan Yun wrote a long paragraph about how he had earned a lot of money through his intelligence. The moment he clicked send, he received a notification saying, "The other party has turned on your friend request. You are not his/her friend yet."
Shangguan Yun, "???"

Two days later, Huo Yao went to meet up with Meng Ying.
She declined to go shopping, so they met at an afternoon tea restaurant in the city center.
"Sister Yao, you look like you've changed a lot. You lost a lot of weight!" commented Meng Ying after the waiter left.
Huo Yao raised her brow. Her exquisite features looked even more reserved now. "Logically speaking, you shouldn't have failed a subject in your first semester with such a meticulous side to you."
She had seen a screenshot of Meng Ying's final results on her WeChat moments ago.
Meng Ying covered her face. She did not feel bad hearing this from her cousin, but she felt ashamed hearing it from a straight-A student.
She coughed and found an excuse. "How should I put it? It's normal to fail a subject. It's a must for college students."
Huo Yao looked at Meng Ying with an ambiguous smile.
The waiter brought the teapot over and interrupted Meng Ying's awkwardness. She giggled and poured Huo Yao a cup of tea before they started talking about other things.
Meng Ying had always been gossipy. Even though they had not seen each other for a long time, she still had a lot to say. "... Oh yes. Sister Yao, do you know which university Lu Xia is attending?"
Huo Yao took a sip of tea. She did not expect Meng Ying to suddenly mention Lu Xia. She paused before she asked. "Which university?"
"She's in the same university as me. She majored in computing just like me." Meng Ying pursed her lips and continued. "But it's strange. She transferred after half a semester."
Huo Yao already knew about this from Cheng Ming's research, so she nodded and acknowledged her.
"I heard that she transferred to an Ivy League school abroad and changed her major. When she left the school, she looked so proud."
Meng Ying clicked her tongue. She still found Lu Xia hypocritical when she saw her that day.
Huo Yao raised her brow slightly and commented unhurriedly. "People who can get into Ivy League schools do have the right to be arrogant."
"The only thing to blame is that when she got into S University, her score was only above average at best. How could she have qualified to enter?" Meng Ying poked her chin with her finger.
Huo Yao nodded and said, "This is a world of money and power."
"Didn't the Lu family go bankrupt a long time ago? Where did she get the money and power from? Unless she has a sugar daddy," Meng Ying said.
"Perhaps," replied Huo Yao softly.
