Meng Ying took out her phone and unlocked it before she said, "This post is getting out of hand. I saw the forum administrator locking it... Huh? Why is the forum open for comments again?"
Huo Yao's gaze was calm as she continued walking.

Huo Yao received a text from Min Yu in the afternoon: [Are you free after school?]
Huo Yao contemplated for a few seconds before she replied: [I think so.]
[Old Mr. Yi came up with two new dishes. He asked me to ask if you are free tonight.]
Huo Yao caressed the phone screen with her fingertips and replied without hesitation: [Yes!]
Learning and good food were the most important things in this world.
Min Yu: [See you at the school gate.]
Huo Yao raised her brow and replied. Then she put her phone away.

Huo Yao spotted Min Yu's plain black car the moment she walked out of the school gate. Zhuo Yun was standing by the car door. The moment Huo Yao approached, Zhuo Yun greeted her. "Hi, Miss Huo."
There was even a hint of respect in his voice.
Huo Yao nodded slightly at Zhuo Yun.
Zhuo Yun quickly opened the backseat door for Huo Yao. After she got in, he closed the door for her.
Min Yu looked sideways at Huo Yao with a warm smile on his handsome face. "You are on time."
Huo Yao raised her brow and looked at him. "Of course I have to be on time."
Min Yu placed his hands on his knees and instructed Zhuo Yun to drive. He casually asked her. "How's the contest going?"
He was referring to the National Quiz Contest.
Huo Yao leaned against the window lazily. "It's not bad. I just made it to the nationals."
"Congratulations."
Huo Yao waved her hand. "It's nothing." She sounded a little arrogant.
"What competition?" Zhuo Yun, who was driving, asked curiously.
"A boring quiz contest," replied Huo Yao casually.
Min Yu's lips twitched when he heard this.
Ever since Huo Yao gave him a box of nerve-soothing incense, Zhuo Yun had been trying to build a good relationship with her. He paused before he asked her. "What's it called? Can I find it online?"
Huo Yao told him the name.
Zhuo Yun silently noted it down. When the light turned red, he picked up his phone and searched for it on the internet. After a rough understanding, he looked a little lost.
Had he graduated too long ago, or was he too inexperienced? How could Miss Huo say that the Tsing University recommendation competition was boring?
"The venue for the National League isn't in this city, right?" Min Yu tapped his fingers on his knees.
"Yes, I'm going to the capital." Huo Yao tilted her head and fixed her eyes on Min Yu's face. She did not find it inappropriate or awkward at all.
Min Yu sensed Huo Yao's gaze on him. A look of discomfort appeared on his usually cold face. He lowered his eyes and asked her. "What time?"
Huo Yao pursed her lips. She did not think there was anything she couldn't say, so she replied. "Next Saturday and Sunday."
Min Yu went silent for a few seconds before he said, "What a coincidence. I'm going to the capital next week. I'll take you around when I have time."
Huo Yao thought about Huo Xiang and waved her hand. "Probably not. I don't think I have time."
"Let's keep in touch then." Min Yu did not insist.
"Okay." Huo Yao turned to look at the streets outside. "Aren't we going to the restaurant we ate at?"
"Uh huh. It's where Old Mr. Yi lives," replied Min Yu calmly.
Huo Yao contemplated for a few seconds and did not say a word.
Forty minutes later, the car finally stopped outside the Yi family's old residence.
