Song Ning looked at her son strangely and said in a warning tone, "Why are you looking for your little sister as soon as you come home? What are you up to this time?"
Ever since they parted on bad terms, this jerk had only called her to discipline her daughter. He had never been so eager to come home.
Huo Yanxi's lips twitched. "Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about me? I was just asking her casually. "
Song Ning removed the mask on her face. It was not difficult to see the disdain on her wet face. "Don't you know if it's a misunderstanding or not?"
Huo Yanxi went speechless. "..."
"Fine. I'm going to get my face done. Do whatever you want," said Song Ning as she turned to head to the bedroom.
Song Ning turned around and walked towards the bedroom. However, after taking two steps, she stopped and turned around. She said sternly, "Don't disturb your sister. She studies hard every day."
Then she went back into the bedroom, leaving Huo Yanxi and Huo Jinyan alone in the living room.
Huo Yanxi looked at Huo Jinyan. Just as he was about to speak, Huo Jinyan stood up and turned off the TV with a big yawn. He said in a muffled voice, "I woke up too early this morning. I'm so sleepy. Go to bed early. Good night."
Huo Jinyan did not wait for Huo Yanxi to reply and quickly went back to his room.
Huo Yanxi went speechless.
It had been a few days since he came home. Did his parents dislike him?
Huo Yanxi went upstairs gloomily. He glanced at Huo Yao's room and paused for a few seconds. Then he veered his eyes away and went back to his room.

The next day was Saturday. Huo Yao did not have any classes, so she went for a morning jog as usual.
After she came back, she went upstairs. Just as she passed by Huo Yanxi's room, the door opened from the inside. She stopped in her tracks.
Huo Yanxi was in his pajamas. He had just woken up and his eyes were half-closed. The moment he opened the door, he saw Huo Yao sweating profusely and instantly sobered up. "What are you..."
Huo Yao had already calmed down. She replied calmly. "I just came back from my morning jog."
Huo Yanxi was surprised. After all, it was the weekend, and most people would choose to laze in bed.
"I'm going back to my room." Huo Yao nodded at Huo Yanxi in a polite and well-mannered manner.
Huo Yan was in a daze as he gazed at Huo Yao's back.
Twenty minutes later.
Huo Yao sat at the dining table and ate her breakfast unhurriedly. She looked quiet and obedient.
Huo Yanxi was sitting across from her, and his eyes would fall on her from time to time. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. He looked awkward.
Huo Yao seemed a little overwhelmed by his stare. She put down the spoon in her hand and raised her head to look at him with her large eyes. "Do you have something to say?"
Huo Yanxi coughed dryly. He suddenly recalled what Lu Xia had told him last night. "I heard that you signed up for the National Quiz Contest?"
"How did you know?" asked Huo Yao quizzically.
"Lu Xia mentioned it yesterday." Huo Yanxi did not think there was anything to hide, so he answered honestly.
Huo Yao raised her brow. "Oh."
Alright, she had already guessed it.
"Why do you want to participate in this competition?" Huo Yanxi wanted to say that it was a waste of time to participate in this kind of competition, but he stopped himself in the end.
