Chapter 10: Superiority Frustration
Huo Yanxi frowned as his arm was held, but he did not pull his hand out. "What's the matter?"
Lu Xia blinked, with a hint of cuteness on her delicately made-up face. "I've been recording a program recently, and I haven't been back to see my parents for a long time. I feel a little guilty. Yaoyao just came back from the countryside, so she must be a little uncomfortable. I want to go home and stay for a few days, accompany my parents, and take Yaoyao to get familiar with the place."
Huo Yanxi thought for a few seconds after hearing this, then nodded and said, "Okay, we will feel more at ease with you taking care of Yaoyao."
Lu Xia grinned and said "hmm", then tilted her head slightly, raised her chin towards Huo Yao, then let go of Huo Yanxi, turned around and sat in the passenger seat.
He acted like a master.
Huo Yao raised his eyebrows and curled the corners of his lips under the mask, but he didn't say anything. He reached out and slowly opened the back door of the car.
***
On the way back, Lu Xia kept telling Huo Yanxi about her participation in the talent show after joining the girl group. From time to time, she looked through the rearview mirror at Huo Yao, who had taken off her mask, as if she wanted to see a hint of envy on her face.
However, the other party looked lazy. Apart from lowering her head to play with her mobile phone, she was obviously immersed in her own world, as if what others said had nothing to do with her.
This caused Lu Xia's sense of superiority to suffer an epic setback.
Lu Xia told herself in her heart that it might be because this country girl from a small county town didn't understand the entertainment industry, so she couldn't understand what she said, which was why she was so calm.
So she turned her thoughts around, ended all the topics about the entertainment industry, turned her head deliberately, looked at Huo Yao and asked: "By the way, Yaoyao, we are from the same year, so you should be in the third year of high school, right?"
Huo Yao's slender fingers paused on the phone screen. After a moment, she slowly raised her head. The soft warm light in the car shone on her face, with a thin halo that diluted the sharpness between her brows.
She said 'hmm' lightly.
Lu Xia's eyes flickered. She felt that Huo Yao looked a little inexplicably seductive at this moment, especially his voice, which was a little hoarse from smoke.
Lu Xia gathered his thoughts and forced a smile on his face, "My mother told me that when you left my grandmother's house, you had already completed the procedures for transferring to another school."
She deliberately put a little more emphasis on the words "my mother, my grandmother", but of course, if you don't listen carefully, you can't really hear it.
Huo Yao curled the corners of his lips and glanced at her with a smile.
Lu Xia's breathing stagnated, and his eyes subconsciously looked elsewhere, not meeting her gaze. His voice was no longer as natural as before, "Have you chosen a school? Do you want my dad to help? I heard from my mom before that your grades aren't that great..."
"No need, the school has already been chosen." Huo Yao interrupted her casually.
Lu Xia was stunned for a moment, the word "OK" stuck in her throat. After a while, she smiled stiffly and asked, "Have you chosen? Which school?"
When Huo Yanxi, who was driving, heard this, he looked at the rearview mirror in surprise.
Due to work reasons, Huo Yanxi was not often at home, but he knew that his parents had been worrying about their sister, who was taken away by mistake and grew up in a small county town, and which school she should transfer to.
The reason is that his sister's grades are said to be very bad, and her parents are reluctant to send her to an ordinary middle school. But even if she gets into a key high school through connections, they are worried that she will not be able to keep up with the progress and thus develop an inferiority complex...
