"So you are participating for the prize money?" Yi Lianfan was stunned. He instantly understood what she meant.
Huo Yao nodded. She veered her eyes away and continued to read.
Yi Lianfan's eyes landed on her book again. Although he felt that his English was decent, he could not understand a single thing after glancing at it.
He suddenly felt a little discouraged.
Yi Lianfan leaned back in melancholy before he said calmly, "I won't lose to you again in the National Quiz Contest."
Huo Yao flipped a page and replied nonchalantly without looking up. "Okay. Good luck."
Most people who said this to her lost in the National Quiz Contest.
All she could do was encourage him.
Time passed quickly. The staff at the departure area announced that everyone was boarding.
Huo Yao waited until almost everyone had entered the airport before she slowly put her books into her bag. She stood up and pulled the small suitcase her mother had prepared for her to the boarding gate. She handed her ID card and ticket to the staff for them to swipe.
Her seat was next to the window. The moment she boarded the plane, she switched off her phone and covered her head with her hoodie. Then she leaned sideways against the seat and closed her eyes to rest.
The plane landed at the capital airport two and a half hours later.
It was past 6: 00 pm, but the sky was not completely dark yet.
Everyone gathered at the departure gate after they got off the plane. Since the National Quiz Contest was tomorrow, most of the people at the airport were students from all over the country.
Tsing University was the venue for the National Quiz Contest, so most of the schools booked hotels near Tsing University.
No.1 Middle School was no exception.
Zhuo Yun had just come out of the VIP passageway. He was on the phone when he raised his head and saw Huo Yao among the students nearby.
He thought he was seeing things at first, but he took a few more glances at her before he was sure he was right.
He had heard the Principal mention that the students were coming to the capital for the National Quiz Contest on Friday when he was in the Principal's office. He did not expect to bump into her here.
Zhuo Yun walked up to Min Yu after he hung up the phone. He pointed nearby and said, "Boss, look over there. It's Miss Huo." Min Yu raised his head.
Min Yu raised his head. He saw a girl who had a strong sense of presence wherever she went. Even if she was just standing there lazily, it was still a very picturesque scene.
As if she knew someone was looking at her, the girl suddenly raised her head and her gaze fell precisely in his direction.
Their eyes met in mid-air, and Min Yu's lips suddenly curved up.
What a sharp little kid.
Zhuo Yun hesitated for a moment before asking in a low voice, "Do you want to go over and say hello?"
Min Yu looked at Huo Yao and shook his head. "It's okay. Let's go."
With that, he withdrew his gaze, and his face returned to its usual coldness as he walked out.

On the other side, after all the students had arrived, the Dean led them to the airport parking lot. Before they came, the Principal had already arranged for a car to pick them up.
The principal was from the Yu Family, one of the most prestigious families in Beijing. He had a distinguished status, and the driver who came to pick him up was also the Yu Family's driver. The car was also parked in the exclusive passageway inside the airport.
At this time, in addition to the Yu family's car, there were also a few black Jing sedans parked there.
