Song Qi had always been very pleased with words like "distinguished status". She lifted her chin and said proudly, "Alright, try it again."
"Uh huh. Bye, Miss Zhu," said Xiao Zhu respectfully.
Song Qing nodded. Before she hung up, a thought crossed her mind and she added. "If she still doesn't know what's good for her, you can bring her over if necessary."
Xiao Zhu understood what she meant and replied, "Okay."
Song Qi pursed her lips and lowered her phone from her ear. She stood there quietly for a while before she turned to head to the old man's ward.

After Xiao Zhu hung up the phone, he hurried in the direction Huo Yao had left. However, Huo Yao was already far away while he was on the phone.
By the time he reached the main entrance, Huo Yao was already standing in front of a car by the roadside.
The person got out of the car and helped her put her luggage in the trunk. Although Xiao Zhu could not hear what the person was saying, he could tell that the person was very respectful.
Xiao Zhu frowned quizzically.
He had gotten the detective to look into Huo Yao's background and found that she was just a housewife. Her husband was just an ordinary employee and she lived in a run-down neighborhood.
She had been living in poverty for the past few years, probably because she had to raise five children.
However, her sons seemed to be slightly more successful. One worked in an investment company, another was a lawyer, one was overseas, and the last one was a singer.
The detective had only given him a rough outline and did not go into detail. After all, her sons were not under his radar.
Xiao Zhu was shocked to see this. How could Huo Yao afford to hire a chauffeur for her daughter in the capital?
As Xiao Zhu pondered, he saw that Huo Yao was about to leave. Without any hesitation, he walked to the roadside.
However, he had only taken two steps when a familiar voice came from behind him.
"Uncle Zhu, why are you here at Tsing University?" It was Ji Ya. She was accompanied by two other students.
Xiao Zhu halted when he heard Ji Ya's voice. He turned to look at her. "Oh, Miss Ya. I was just passing by."
He remembered Song Qi's instructions. He wouldn't reveal that she had a cousin studying at Tsing University, let alone that they were going to the hospital to get her matched.
Ji Ya was still holding a stack of books in her arms, and her eyes were filled with suspicion.
Xiao Zhu raised his head to look at the side of the road. Huo Yao was nowhere to be seen. The black car had driven away.
At that moment, he did not have the time to explain and said to Ji Ya, "Miss Ya, I still have some matters to attend to and will leave first. I will explain when I am free."
After saying that, Xiao Zhu didn't wait for Ji Ya to say anything and hurriedly walked to the side of the road. His car also temporarily stopped at the school gate.
Soon, he got into the car.
He didn't know if he could keep up with that car.
Ji Ya stood rooted to the ground. The confusion on her pretty face deepened. Uncle Zhu was her mother's most trusted person. There was no way he would come to Tsing University for no reason. Furthermore, judging from his reaction, it didn't seem like he was here for her.
Ji Ya caressed the books with her fair fingers before she veered her eyes away. She turned to apologize to the two students beside her. "Something happened at home, so I can't discuss the equation with you guys for now. Can I contact you later?"
She had always been popular, so the two students expressed that it didn't matter and let her do her work.
Ji Ya nodded at them before she walked to the roadside and hailed a taxi.
