The results of the City Quiz Contest would be released two days later.
Huo Yao looked at Lu Xia with a faint smile. A gentle breeze blew a strand of hair to the side of her mouth. She blew it away slowly and said lazily, "Who do you think you are?"
Her voice was slightly hoarse and her tone was naturally arrogant. Even though she was swearing, it did not sound vulgar at all. Instead, it made her look handsome.
Lu Xia's calm expression gradually froze. Soon, her lips curved into a sarcastic smile. "Do you think you are so great just because you came first a few times?"
Huo Yao raised her eyebrows. She had always wondered why this precious daughter of the Lu family was so obsessed with showing off in front of her.
Did she want to show off after returning to a rich family and being doted on by her parents?
Huo Yao shook her head disinterestedly. She veered her eyes away and did not say a word. Instead, she turned around and headed for the school gate.
Lu Xia's face darkened as she watched Huo Yao leave.
Lu Xia hated the way Lu Xia looked down on everyone. Despite growing up in the countryside, Lu Xia pretended to be aloof. Did she really think she was some big shot?
What a joke!
Lu Xia wound up the car window and told the chauffeur to drive away.

Huo Yao noticed that Meng Ying was in class after entering the classroom. She sat down and gently patted Meng Ying's shoulder.
Meng Ying had been in a daze ever since she came to school. Usually, she would have greeted Huo Yao when she saw her. She only snapped out of her trance when Huo Yao patted her shoulder.
"Sister Big Shot, you are here," said Meng Ying weakly.
Huo Yao looked at Meng Ying's haggard face. Her eyes were like those of a panda's and asked her. "You didn't sleep last night?"
Meng Ying leaned on the desk and narrowed her eyes. She said bitterly, "I couldn't sleep. Whenever I think of my dad, I feel terrible."
"Take care of yourself. Otherwise, you will fall sick when your dad wakes up. Everyone will feel terrible then. Moreover, you have your mother to take care of, "said Huo Yao slowly.
It was not that Huo Yao did not want to help, but it was not the right time yet. After all, Meng Ying had just undergone surgery and her external and internal injuries were still recovering. If Huo Yao inserted needles now, Meng Ying's body might not be able to take it and it might backfire.
Meng Ying sniffed and tried to cheer herself up. "Yes, I know."
Huo Yao smiled. She took out a notebook from the box on the table and flipped through the notes she had taken yesterday before placing them on Meng Ying's desk.
Meng Ying looked at the cursive handwriting on the notebook. The content was all simple and easy to understand equations, annotations, and the key points of the exam. She was very touched. "Thank you."
Huo Yao raised her brow and joked. "Of course my deskmate can't be too bad. Otherwise, I'll lose face as the top student in the grade."
Meng Ying grunted softly and held the book in her hands without saying anything else.
High school was a race against time. Those who were willing to spend their own time studying and reviewing knowledge were all sincere friends.

The third class in the morning was English. After the English teacher came in, he handed everyone a set of test papers and instructed them to answer the questions themselves. Then he called Huo Yao to his office.
