Since her daughter rarely took the initiative to ask about her older brothers, Song Ning replied unhurriedly. "I'm a lawyer who handles lawsuits."
The moment Huo Yao heard this, she once again overturned the fact that her older brothers were all good-for-nothings.
"Brother Tingrui has been on a business trip lately. You will be able to see him soon," explained Huo Jinyan, worried that his daughter would misunderstand that Huo Tingrui was deliberately avoiding her.
"Uh huh," acknowledged Huo Yao softly. She looked as obedient as ever.
About 20 minutes later, Huo Tingrui, the second son of the Huo family, arrived after the waiter served the seafood feast.
Huo Tingrui looked introverted with deep eyes and a pair of rimless glasses perched on his high nose bridge. He looked refined yet sharp, and he had the aura of an elite lawyer.
The moment he entered the private room, he greeted Song Ning and Huo Jinyan before his eyes landed on Huo Yao. A look of surprise appeared in his eyes when he saw her.
It could be said that the young girl had inherited all of her parents' good points. She was good-looking, and she looked quite obedient when she sat quietly. She didn't look like a country bumpkin at all. She was completely different from the photo she had sent him on WeChat.
This was unexpected.
Huo Tingrui pondered for a few seconds before he walked over and pulled out the chair next to Huo Yao. He sat down and introduced himself formally. "Yaoyao, I'm your second older brother, Huo Tingrui."
Huo Yao met Huo Tingrui's gaze. Her eyes were bright and she spoke unhurriedly. "Hi, Brother Tingrui."
Huo Tingrui suddenly felt touched when he heard Huo Yao calling him Brother Tingrui. He did not know if it was because of their blood relationship, but he felt that calling him Brother Tingrui sounded much more intimate than calling him Xiaxia.
Huo Tingrui added. "Call me Brother Tingrui again."
Huo Yao: "???"
Huo Tingrui coughed before he gently adjusted his glasses and changed the topic. "Brother Tingrui didn't bring a gift today. Why don't we pick out a gift after dinner?"
Huo Yao hurriedly shook her head. "It's okay. I have to go back to school in the afternoon."
What kind of quirk was it that the whole family liked to give gifts?
Huo Tingrui recalled that his little sister was still a student, so he did not force her. He contemplated for a moment before he pulled out his phone from his pocket and said, "Here's a red packet for you. You can pick out a present when you have the time."
Huo Yao's temples throbbed when she saw Huo Tingrui take out his phone. Before she could reject him, her phone rang.
Huo Yao glanced at the transfer amount. Her lips twitched. Did her second older brother misunderstand the meaning of the word 'small'?
Two hundred thousand? Is that small? Is it small? Small?!
Huo Yao pressed her forehead. Sure enough, transferring money without warning was a family tradition.
Huo Tingrui rubbed his chin when he saw the complicated look on her face. He knew that two hundred thousand was too little, so he took out his wallet from his pocket and took out a card.
"Take this card too. You can swipe it whenever you want. The password is …" Huo Tingrui placed the card on the table.
Huo Yao, "..."
She felt like she had taken the wrong cue from the rich and powerful.
"Remember to swipe Dad's card too!" Huo Jinyan hurriedly reminded Huo Yao when he saw his second son's reaction.
