As the curtains were slowly removed, Huo Yao could see the Flying Goddess logo at the front of the car. Her hand instantly froze, and her expression changed. This was...
A Rolls-Royce.
Huo Yao raised her head and looked at the old man with a dumbfounded expression. "Dad, is your quarterly bonus that high?"
"It's okay." Huo Jinyan's expression did not change. He cleared his throat when he noticed his daughter's dazed expression and said, "Actually, it's not that expensive. It's just... about a million."
Huo Jinyan recalled that she had almost mistaken the company's finance department for debt collectors. If he told her that the car was worth ten million, she would probably be shocked again. Hence, he decided not to do it.
Anyway, his daughter was a nerd who spent all her time studying. She certainly did not know anything about cars.
Huo Yao's lips twitched. She exerted a little force and removed the curtains.
Suddenly, a streamlined, exquisite, and cool Rolls-Royce Phantom, full of aristocratic aura, appeared perfectly in front of him.
Hehe. A million Rolls-Royce Phantom? Who was this old man trying to fool?
"Are you sure this car is only worth a million?" Huo Yao enunciated each word carefully and emphasized the word 'only'.
Since he had already said it, he could not deny it. Huo Jinyan coughed and tried his best to maintain his composure. Then he said in an unprecedentedly serious tone, "Yes. Don't be fooled by how cool this car looks. It's not worth much at all!"
Huo Yao, "..."
How could she believe him?
Huo Jinyan did not dare to look into his daughter's eyes. Instead, he lowered his head to look at the time and said, "We're running out of time. Get in. I'll drive you to school."
Then he hurriedly took out the keys, unlocked the car, and sat down in the driver's seat.
He felt extremely guilty.
Huo Yao chuckled softly with an ambiguous smile on her face. She did not press him any further and got into the car.
Huo Jinyan sent his daughter to school 20 minutes later. Since the car was not discreet enough, Huo Yao did not let him drop her off at the school gates. Instead, she got out of the car early.
The Lu family's car arrived at the school around this time. When the driver saw the Rolls-Royce making a U-turn in front of them, he said in surprise, "An imported Rolls-Royce. Someone who can drive such a car must have an extraordinary background."
Lu Xia was playing with her phone with her head down. When she heard the driver's words, she raised her head and looked out of the window after a while. But at this time, the car had turned around and left, so she did not see anything.
However, she saw Huo Yao walking towards the school unhurriedly.
Before long, the car overtook Huo Yao.
Lu Xia's face darkened at the thought that Lu Ziming had sent her information to Huo Yao. She glanced back through the car window and asked the driver to stop by the roadside.
Lu Xia wound down the car window after Huo Yao got in. Just as Huo Yao was about to pass the car door, she called out to her. "Huo Yao."
Huo Yao paused slightly when she heard Lu Xia's voice. She turned her head nonchalantly. Her exquisite features were cold and callous, and her eyes were deep and sparkling. She raised her brow lazily when she saw Lu Xia.
A look of intense jealousy flashed across Lu Xia's eyes. She clenched her fists on her knees before relaxing them.
"Let me give you a piece of advice. Withdraw from the contest before the results are out."
