The cas.h.i.+er smiled as she shook her head. “Yes, the bill has been settled.”
Zhuo Yun did not go on asking her any further. He put away his card and returned to the private room quizzically.
Zhuo Yun headed back to the private room and noticed Huo Yao was not around, so he turned to ask Min Yu. “Where is Miss Huo?”
“The bathroom.” Min Yu glanced at Zhuo Yun and replied calmly.
Did Huo Yao foot the bill? But had she not been in the private room all along?
“What?” asked Min Yu when he spotted the odd expression on Zhuo Yun’s face.
Zhuo Yun scratched his head. “The cas.h.i.+er said someone already took care of the bill when I went to pay it.”
Zhuo Yun paused before he continued. “Maybe Miss Huo took care of it.”
Min Yu rapped his fingers on the table quietly.
Huo Yao came back to see the strange expressions on Min Yu and Zhuo Yun’s faces. She asked them in confusion. “What’s with the weird looks?”
“Nothing.” Zhuo Yun shook his head. He absolutely could not utter a word about how much he and Min Yu appeared like freeloaders today.
It would be embarra.s.sing if anyone else caught wind of this.

After lunch, Huo Yao parted ways with Min Yu and headed home.
She took the ingredients she bought today up to her room and spent almost the entire afternoon inside making incense.
The incense had solidified and was completely dry when she went back upstairs after dinner to check. Then she cut them up and split them into three boxes.
She wanted to send one each to her third older brother and grandmother and save the third one as a backup at home.
Huo Tingrui noticed the incense box right away when Huo Yao placed the extra box in the cabinet downstairs. He hurriedly asked, “Yao, did you make more incense?”
“Yeah. Want one?” Huo Yao took the incense from the cabinet.
“Uh huh.” Huo Tingrui nodded.
Huo Yao opened the box and retrieved only one, and handed it to him.
Huo Tingrui took the stick of incense and glanced at the contents of the box. There were at least 20 sticks of incense in there. “Just one?”
Huo Yao raised her head and glanced at Huo Tingrui. She suddenly recalled the three huge boxes of revision material on her way to her by courier, and her face instantly became angry. “If you think it’s too less, then don’t take it.”
Huo Tingrui quickly held the stick of incense behind him. “No, my bad.”
Did his little sister have to get so angry? All he wanted was one more stick of incense.
???
Huo Yao snapped the box shut loudly. Then she placed it back inside the cabinet in front of him before she turned to leave.
Huo Tingrui watched as Huo Yao went upstairs. He adjusted his spectacles helplessly, oblivious to how he had offended his little sister.

Huo Yao woke up very early the next morning.
The recording of ‘Countryside Life With My Family’ was taking place in a small town in City S, and it would take over two hours to drive there.
Since the filming commenced at 10:00 am, they had to start early.
Tong Yu was already waiting downstairs when Huo Yao and Huo Xiang came down by the lift, with a small suitcase.
He stored the suitcase away before they embarked on the trip to Ren County.
Tong Yu glanced into the rearview mirror and said sadly, “Yao, are you really not going to show your face during filming?”
Huo Yao was leaning lazily in her seat. Even though her ponytail had scattered over her shoulders, it did not seem unkempt. “Nope.”
“With a face like yours, you will certainly be a hit if you work in the entertainment industry with me.” Tong Yu had hinted several times that he wanted Huo Yao to join the entertainment industry as a celebrity, but she had zero interest in the proposal.
It was such a waste, considering how gorgeous she was.
