Huo Tingrui looked at her quizzically. "Huh?"
"I have some medicine that is good for nourishing your Qi. I can prepare it for you in advance when you are coming back," explained Huo Yao casually.
After all, Huo Yao had accepted a 'small' red packet, so she had to return the favor.
Although her medicine was much more precious than a 'small' red packet.
Huo Tingrui composed himself and understood that his little sister was being kind. He smiled and was about to say something when he heard her voice again. "Why don't you send me your address? I can send it to you by express delivery."
Huo Tingrui swallowed his words when he saw the serious look on his little sister's face. He said, "It's fine. I'll be staying at home during this period."
Huo Yao snapped her fingers. "Okay. I'll give it to you tonight." Then she jumped out of the car in a cool manner.
Huo Tingrui placed his hands on the steering wheel and watched his little sister driving away. He smiled and shook his head.
His little sister was actually quite cute. Oh, no. She was quite handsome.
Huo Tingrui started the car and left the school.
Coincidentally, his car brushed past the Lu family's car as he was leaving.
Lu Xia raised her head and happened to see Huo Tingrui's face in the other car.
"Stop the car," said Lu Xia to the chauffeur.
The chauffeur slammed on the brakes and stopped the car by the roadside.
Lu Xia pushed the car door open, but Huo Tingrui's car was already so far away that she could barely see it.
Lu Xia bit her lip in frustration. She hurriedly took out her phone from her bag and called Huo Tingrui.
After a few rings, Huo Tingrui picked up the phone. "Xiaxia? What's up? "
Lu Xia was still looking in the direction of Huo Tingrui's car. She said gently, "Nothing much. I just wanted to ask if you are back from your business trip."
Huo Tingrui paused for a moment before he replied emotionlessly. "Not yet. It's a complicated case, so I might not be back so soon."
Lu Xia instinctively tightened her grip on her phone and looked upset. After a few seconds, she finally found her voice and said, "Oh, i-is that so? Let me know when you are back. I'll pick you up at the airport. "
Huo Tingrui replied perfunctorily. "I have a client. Let's talk when I'm free."
"Alright, then … Second Brother, you go ahead with your work."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Xia stood in the same place for a long time without moving. A thin layer of mist suddenly appeared in her eyes.
Although their cars had just brushed past each other, she would never mistake that face and the license plate number of the other party.
Why did Second Brother lie that he was still on a business trip?
Was he treating her so coldly because Huo Yao was back?
Yes, he was heading in the direction of the school. It was obvious that Huo Yao must have said something to him!
Lu Xia clenched her fists, and her sharp nails almost pierced her palms.

The moment Huo Yao returned to the classroom, Meng Ying, who was slumped listlessly on the table, immediately brightened up. "Sister Big Shot, you're back. How did you do?"
Huo Yao tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear and replied nonchalantly. "I guess."
Meng Ying clicked her tongue. It was that annoying tone again.
"You don't look well. Did you sleep well last night?" asked Huo Yao as she glanced at her.
