Huo Yanxi frowned. "Why did you bring up Lu Xia again? Are you two the same? "
Huo Yao tapped her fingers on the table gently. Her eyes looked unfocused. "Are you sure you didn't bring it up first?"
Huo Yanxi choked. He felt as though he could not communicate properly. He patiently explained. "Xiaxia is trying to get into Tsing University. What about you? It doesn't seem to make much sense for you to participate in the competition with your grades. "
He paused for a second before he added softly. "If you have the time, why don't you go to a tutoring class? That's the most useful thing for you right now."
Although he was a little disappointed with his little sister, he still hoped that she could focus on the right path instead of taking shortcuts that she knew were impossible.
Huo Yao looked at him and smiled nonchalantly. "So you're saying that I'm not qualified to participate in the competition, right?"
Huo Yanxi was stunned by Huo Yao's smile and instinctively replied. "... That's not what I meant. I just feel that one shouldn't bite off more than one can chew."
"Okay, I get it." Huo Yao nodded. She veered her eyes away and lowered her head to continue eating the leftover porridge in her bowl.
Huo Yanxi looked at his little sister, who appeared quiet and obedient, but was deliberately cold and distant. He felt indescribably complicated.
If Xiaxia was the one talking to him, she would not be in such an awkward situation. At the very least, she would understand what he was trying to say.
The atmosphere at the dining table became a little gloomy.
After a while, Huo Yanxi put down his breakfast and looked at Huo Yao again. "I'll hire a tutor for you."
Huo Yao raised her head quizzically. "Huh?"
"Since you insist on participating in the competition, I won't try to stop you. I happen to have a friend working at the Education Association. He might be able to help you," said Huo Yanxi slowly.
Other than high school teachers with advanced teaching certifications, the Education Association also included academicians who had contributed to the country. If she could get a tutor from the Education Association, she would definitely be able to avoid a lot of detours.
"Thanks, but I don't need it," said Huo Yao politely.
She did not understand why Huo Yanxi was so certain that her grades were so bad that she had to rely on the Education Association to tutor her.
Huo Yanxi did not expect that Huo Yao would reject him. He had thought that she would be touched that he was so considerate of her.
However, not only was she not moved at all, she did not even think for half a second before directly rejecting him.
Huo Yanxi's face darkened. He could not help but say, "Do you know how helpful it is for you to receive guidance from the Education Association?"
Huo Yao looked at him calmly without saying a word.
Huo Yanxi rubbed his forehead in exasperation when he saw how indifferent she was. He could not help but raise his voice. "You know …"
Huo Yanxi suddenly remembered that she had lived in a small county and probably had never heard of the Education Association. He stopped abruptly and shook his head. "Forget it. Why am I telling you this?"
Huo Yanxi stood up and said one last thing. "Since you're turning me down, I'll pretend I never said anything to you."
He didn't care about his sister anymore.
Huo Yao watched as Huo Yanxi left in a huff. After a while, she took out her phone and sent a text message.
