Huo Yanxi did not want to hear more exaggerated things from his mother, so he asked her casually. "Didn't Yao take part in the National Quiz Contest? How did she do in the preliminary test?"
Huo Yanxi paused and glanced at Huo Yao. Before she could reply, he continued. "Xiaxia took part in the quiz too. She did pretty well and came in at the top."
He did not mention that she came in sixth because he wanted to save his little sister some face.
Huo Yao raised her brow slightly without saying a word.
Song Ning and Huo Jinyan didn't seem surprised at all. Instead …
"Oh. Xiaxia's results were pretty good too." Song Ning nodded perfunctorily.
Huo Jinyan commented calmly. "Lu Xia has always had good results, so it's not surprising that she came in at the top."
However, no matter how good her results were, they were not as good as their daughter!
After all, their daughter had scored full marks and was ranked first!
Huo Yanxi could not help raising his head to look at them quizzically when he noticed their indifference. After all, Lu Xia had been his adopted daughter for over a decade. Although they were not happy for her, they should not be reacting this way.
Were they worried about Huo Yao's feelings because she did badly on the test?
Huo Yanxi's lips twitched slightly. However, the moment this thought popped up in his mind, he heard Huo Jinyan's voice again.
"Yaoyao is different. She just transferred from a high school in a small county. She hasn't fully adapted to the teaching methods in the big city yet, but she scored full marks on her test. She is a great honor to the Huos!"
After Huo Jinyan finished speaking, the pride on his face couldn't be more exaggerated. He was just short of writing the words' my daughter is the smartest in the world 'on his face.
"Of course. She came in first in the entire country!" Song Ning's attitude changed drastically. She raised her chin high and looked extremely proud.
Huo Yanxi raised his head abruptly and looked at them in shock. "Full marks? First place? "
Song Ning blinked innocently when she saw the incredulous look on Huo Yanxi's face. "Yeah. Didn't I tell you?"
"You might have forgotten." Huo Jinyan looked at his wife and pretended to be serious as he added.
"How is that possible? Her grades aren't that bad?" Huo Yanxi blurted out.
Song Ning raised her brow and glanced at her eldest son. "Who told you that Yaoyao's grades were bad?"
She seemed to have forgotten that she used to think that her daughter's grades were poor.
Huo Yanxi was stunned.
"If you don't believe me, you can check the rankings online. It's easy to find them," snorted Song Ning. She was disappointed that Huo Yao did not trust her sister.
Huo Yanxi's face stiffened and he almost dropped the chopsticks in his hand. He did not take out his phone to check the rankings because he knew his parents would not joke about such things.
Huo Yanxi felt conflicted. He looked at Huo Yao, who had been eating quietly.
For so long, he had always thought that his sister's academic performance was so bad that even her transfer acceptance letter to No.1 Middle School was obtained through improper means.
