Huo Xiang touched his chin and turned to look at Huo Yanxi. He did not notice the strange look on Huo Yanxi's face as he said proudly, "Brother Yanxi, you might not know this, but Yaoyao took part in a national quiz contest. I checked her results, and she came in first every time. Tsing University is definitely hers."
Huo Yanxi lowered his eyes. All he could hear was Huo Yanxi's words echoing in his ears. After a while, he seemed to regain his composure and replied, "Is that so? Congratulations, Yaoyao. "
His voice sounded a little absent-minded.
Huo Yao had been playing with her phone lazily, so she did not hear or reply to him.
The room fell silent for a moment.
Huo Yanxi could not sit still any longer. He stood up and said, "I have something to attend to, so I have to go."
He raised his head and glanced at Huo Yao, who had not raised her head at all. He opened his mouth but did not say anything in the end. Instead, he headed for the door.
Huo Xiang was stunned when he saw Huo Yanxi running away. He hurriedly stood up and followed him. "Brother Yanxi, let me walk you out."
Huo Xiang asked the question that had been bothering him the entire time. "Brother Yanxi, is there... a conflict between you and Yaoyao?"
Huo Yanxi halted in his steps and pursed his lips. His eyes suddenly turned gloomy as he recalled all the misunderstandings between them. It was more than a conflict.
He shook his head. "I'm going."
Huo Xiang scratched his head after the car drove away. He veered his eyes away and closed the metal door. He went back to the living room and looked at his little sister.
Huo Yao put down her phone when she sensed his gaze. She raised her brow and said, "Don't ask questions. You won't get an answer even if you ask."
Huo Xiang's lips twitched.
Huo Yao's expression changed. She pretended to think about it before she said solemnly, "But we can talk about the fact that you asked me for help this afternoon because you wanted me to take part in the variety show with you."
Huo Xiang was stunned. He did not expect his little sister to see through him so quickly, even though he had kept it to himself for the entire afternoon.
He had a complicated look on his face.
After a long while, Huo Xiang coughed dryly. He sat down uncomfortably on the couch and asked her. "Then... are you willing?"
His face was serious, but … his voice could be said to be quite humble and careful.
If any other artist in the industry saw Huo Xiang in this state, their eyes would have popped out of their sockets.
Huo Yao picked up the bottle of water from the coffee table and opened it. She took two sips before she asked. "What kind of variety show requires relatives?"
Huo Xiang scratched his head. "I only know it's called 'Countryside Life With My Family'. Since it's still in production, I'm not too sure about the details."
Huo Yao's expression suddenly turned odd when she heard the name of the show.
The idyllic life with his family, idyllic life, idyllic life …
She seemed to be the only one in the family who had lived in the countryside. So, her fourth older brother had been typing for a long time in the afternoon. In the end, he didn't say anything. Was he actually thinking of a way to help her without hurting his pride?
Alright, she already understood.
"Why don't I call Tong Yu? He knows more than I do," added Huo Xiang after some thought.
Huo Yao waved her hand. "It's okay."
