Huo Wanying watched as the car drove away. She stood rooted to the spot for a long time. Other people came out one after another. When they saw her, they all looked at her differently.
After all, everyone acknowledged that she was the best. However, she had lost to Huo Wanying, who had just shown up for the first time. Inevitably, everyone started to doubt Huo Wanying's abilities.
It was as if the filter was off. No matter how beautiful she looked in front of the camera, people would subconsciously feel that she had become ugly.
Although everyone had their own thoughts, no one dared to provoke her. Instead, they avoided her and walked away.
Huo Wanying pursed her lips. She did not care about the strange looks they were giving her. Just as she was about to park her car, her phone rang in her pocket.
It was her mother, Merris.
This was the fifth time she had made a phone call.
Huo Wanying did not pick it up. Instead, she drove her sports car to the racing track.
Merris was still waiting for the results of the test. She frowned when her daughter did not pick up the phone.
She paced around the living room twice before she found Huo Qing's number and called him.
The call went through quickly.
Merris asked about the results of the day.
"Wanying is very outstanding, but we all underestimated Master Feng's niece," said Huo Qing in a deep voice.
Merris's pupils narrowed. Her voice was filled with disbelief. "Are you saying that Wanying lost today?"
Huo Qing only let out a long sigh in response.
"How can that be... Master Qing, you must be joking, right? How could Wanying lose? "
"Sister-in-law, no one expected this," said Huo Qing with a bitter smile.
They had previously regarded Huo Yulin as their biggest competitor. Who would have expected that Huo Yao, whom they had looked down on, would suddenly rise up?
She had completely disrupted their plans.
If Huo Wanying had not suggested adding Huo Yao's name to the list, the results would not have come to this.
Huo Qing was very upset. Why did he not stop her earlier?
"Does Wanying have no chance of becoming the heir?" Merris did not know the rules of the family, so she hurriedly asked.
Huo Qing snapped out of his daze. "Not really. There's still a Union mission assessment. After the mission is completed, there will be a final vote. She has a chance."
Martial arts and shooting competitions were actually the most basic things. Losing didn't mean anything. Only the Union's missions were the key to becoming a qualified successor.
To put it bluntly, how could one be a good family head if he only had brute strength but not the brains and boldness to handle matters?
So what if Master Feng's niece won today's test? There was still a huge gap between her and Huo Wanying. After all, Huo Wanying's contributions to the family over the years were obvious to all.
Hearing Huo Qing's words, Merris finally felt a little relieved. "No matter what, Wanying was raised by Master Feng. Even if she doesn't get the heir in the end, it won't be someone who popped out of nowhere to reap the benefits."
