The next day.
Huo Yao had just come downstairs when Huo Xiang waved at her. "Good morning, Yao."
Breakfast was on the dining table, and it was packaged. It was obvious that he had bought it on the spot.
Huo Yao walked over and saw the little princess's face. Her lips twitched. "Brother Xiang, didn't you sleep well last night?"
Its eyes were pitch-black, and it had a head of messy curly hair. It looked exactly like a real panda.
Huo Xiang sat listlessly on the chair. He did not even have an appetite for breakfast. He glanced at his little sister and said softly, "... I had nightmares the whole night."
Sigh! All he did was kidnap his little sister to stay with him for one night.
First, his father had called to 'show his concern' for half an hour. Then, his second older brother had lectured him about how it was illegal to kidnap an underage student in the middle of the night. He had lectured him on the law for an entire hour.
Huo Yao finally had a chance to rest, but he had spent the whole night dreaming of being chased and attacked or being sent to jail. It kept going on and on, and he could not sleep well at all.
Huo Yao could sense the little princess's resentment, so she could only comfort him. "Get some sleep during the day."
Huo Xiang slumped weakly on the table and sighed.
Huo Yao picked up the bun and took a bite. She contemplated before she said, "Take some of my incense when you get home."
Huo Xiang raised his head at the mention of going home. "Yeah. I might not be home for a while. I have to go out of town to film my new album."
Huo Xiang would get hammered by his father if he went home.
He was determined not to go home for the sake of his legs.
Huo Yao glanced at him deeply before she lowered her head and ate her breakfast quietly.
Huo Xiang drove her to school after breakfast. He did not forget to take the box of autographed photos with him.
There was no traffic on the way to school, and there were very few cars.
There was a traffic light ahead. Huo Xiang placed his hand on the steering wheel and stepped on the brakes slowly.
"Oh yes, Yao. What are your plans for the winter break?"
Asked Huo Xiang casually as he turned to look at Huo Yao.
Huo Yao was leaning against the car window with a lazy look in her exquisite eyes. "I will probably go back to my hometown."
"Hometown?" Huo Xiang paused. "Is it with Old Madam Yang?"
"Uh huh," replied Huo Yao softly.
The green light turned green, and Huo Xiang started the car again. "She's lonely at home, so it's only right for her to visit."
Huo Yao looked out of the window and rested her chin on her hand without saying a word.
Huo Xiang was worried that he would be late for school, so he drove a little faster. However, he slowed down when he got off the expressway and entered a busy area. Soon, he realized something was wrong with his car.
The accelerator did slow down, but the car did not slow down. Moreover, the brakes were too weak to be controlled.
Huo Xiang's expression changed drastically. They were on the main road, and there were many cars coming in from the left. Furthermore, there were cars in front of them. If they did not slow down, there would be a series of car accidents.
Huo Yao sensed that something was amiss. She turned to look at Huo Xiang. "Is there something wrong with the car?"
Huo Xiang gripped the steering wheel tightly and stepped on the brakes. He even pulled up the hand brake, but it was to no avail. "The brakes aren't working."
There was a slope to the bridge, and even if he didn't step on the accelerator, the speed was still very fast.
Huo Yao's face darkened when she heard this. She raised her head to look at the dense traffic in front of her. There were not many people on the sidewalk to her right.
