After breakfast, Huo Yao went downstairs with Huo Jinyan with a black card in her hand. While they were taking the elevator, Huo Yao casually asked him. "Dad, aren't we poor?"
Huo Jinyan was surprised that his daughter would ask such a question. Although he didn't know how she found out that her family was poor, he thought of the past and sighed. "Although our family isn't rich, don't worry. I won't let you suffer."
Huo Yao tilted her head slightly. Disbelief was written all over her face as she looked at Huo Yao.
Huo Jinyan inexplicably felt guilty under her gaze. Fortunately, the elevator door opened with a ding. He coughed and hurriedly walked out.
Huo Yao smiled ambiguously as she followed behind him.

Huo Yao's residence was not far from No.1 Middle School. It was only a 20-minute drive, so Huo Yao did not need to live on campus.
Huo Jinyan wanted to send his daughter to the Registrar's Office personally, but there was no parking space on the first day of school. He only left after Huo Yao assured him that she would be fine.
Huo Yao waited for Huo Jinyan's car to drive away before she walked to the school gate unhurriedly.
Since she was a transfer student, she had yet to apply for a student card, so she was stopped by the security guard.
Huo Yao took out the transfer acceptance letter from her bag and handed it to him. "Is this okay?"
The security guard took it and glanced at it. When he looked at Huo Yao again, there was a different look in his eyes. He raised his hand to signal another colleague to come over before he said to Huo Yao, "Wait here. I need to check with the Academic Affairs Office before I can let you in."
Without waiting for Huo Yao's reply, he took her acceptance letter and left.
Huo Yao narrowed her eyes as she watched the security guard enter the building. Was there so much trouble in a lousy high school nowadays?
Although it was rather annoying, she waited patiently.
However, the security guard did not return even after ten minutes. Huo Yao pressed her forehead. She did not want to complain about the school's efficiency.
"Can you hurry up your colleague for me?" asked Huo Yao politely to the other security guard.
A good-looking person would always be more likable. The security guard nodded repeatedly and took out his phone to make a call. However, the call went through, but no one answered.
The security guard tried calling a few more times, but there was no response. He could not help looking at Huo Yao apologetically. "My colleague didn't bring her phone with her. She didn't pick up."
Huo Yao frowned. If the security guard did not come out, did that mean she had to wait here forever?
Huo Yao lowered her eyes to check the time on her wrist before she asked. "Do you have the contact numbers of the Academic Affairs Office or the Principal?"
The security guard scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, student. I'm new here, so I don't know much about this. Why don't you wait a little longer? Maybe my colleague will be back soon."
Fine. Since she didn't know anything, Huo Yao decided not to probe further.
At that moment, a black car stopped at the entrance. The security guard ignored Huo Yao and strode over to the car.
The window of the black car rolled down, and the person inside showed the security guard something. The expression on the security guard's face instantly became respectful.
