Huo Yao contemplated before she replied simply. "He's unimportant. As for why he came to thank me, it's probably because I saved someone."
Song Ning was stunned. "Saved someone?"
"Uh huh," replied Huo Yao. She did not elaborate. She took out her phone and opened the live stream app.
Little Princess Huo was on her own today. Song Ning wondered if she had been bullied.
Song Ning wanted to ask more questions, but her daughter was watching the live stream on her phone and did not seem to want to talk about it, so she shut her mouth.
Although her daughter was usually obedient, she had a lot of secrets. It was impossible to pry anything out of her.
Song Ning did not probe further. A thought crossed her mind, and she turned to look at Huo Yao. She pretended to ask casually. "Oh yes. Did the Lu family look for you again?"
Huo Yao's eyes were glued to her phone screen the entire time. She did not even look up. A few seconds later, she replied slowly. "No." Huo Yao's eyes were glued to her phone screen.
Although He Xiaoman had gone to the school to look for her once, it was a long time ago, so there was no need to bring it up again.
"Oh. Remember to tell me if the Lu family looks for you." Song Ning picked up the glass of water on the coffee table and took a sip.
Huo Yao tilted her head slightly with a quizzical look in her eyes. "Why?"
Song Ning coughed and said, "Nothing much. I'm just worried that you might get bullied again."
Huo Yao veered her eyes. "They can't bully me."
"Anyway, if anything happens to you, you have to tell me. Don't keep it to yourself." Song Ning looked into the distance.
Changfeng had come over this morning to tell her that he had found out who had been spying on the Huo family. They had assumed it was one of the Huo family's old rivals, so they had arranged for bodyguards to protect their daughter in secret. However, it turned out to be the Lu family.
She was Huo Yao's foster mother.
She did not know why that woman had suddenly come to investigate the Huo family, but she knew it was not something good.
It was better to be prepared.

Time passed quickly. Huo Yao received Lin Shuwen's text on Wednesday afternoon. He wanted her to check on Fang Chen again after school.
Huo Yao had promised to check it out later. Since she had nothing to do after school, she replied, "Okay."
The moment Huo Yao stepped out of No.1 Middle School at 5pm, a black car honked on the road. A man in a black suit with a stern expression got out of the car.
The man walked up to Huo Yao and nodded politely. "Miss Huo, Mr. Lin Shuwen is waiting for you in the car."
Lin Shuwen had instructed the bodyguards to be polite to Huo Yao.
Huo Yao glanced at him. Her brows moved slightly as she acknowledged him.
Then, the bodyguard gestured to her.
Huo Yao adjusted her shoulder bag and walked towards the black car without hesitation.
The black car wasn't a luxury car, but upon closer inspection, it had been modified, especially the glass, which was bulletproof.
The bodyguard opened the backseat door for her. Huo Yao withdrew her gaze thoughtfully and quickly sat down.
Lin Shuwen sat in the front passenger seat. The moment Huo Yao got in, he greeted her politely. "Miss Huo, thank you for coming all the way here."
Huo Yao straightened her back and acknowledged him gently before she said, "I didn't come all the way here for nothing."
