Huo Yao prepared to leave after finis.h.i.+ng the ginseng soup.
“Let me walk you home,” said Min Yu as he stood up.
Huo Yao wanted to turn him down. However, Zhuo Yun stood up as well and said, “Yu, you’re still a little weak. Why don’t I walk Miss Huo back?”
Min Yu glanced at Zhuo Yun indifferently.
How could Huo Yao feel that the likes of him were thoughtful?
Zhuo Yun sensed a cold sensation and went quiet. “...”
Min Yu said nothing as he headed slowly towards the door. He walked with a straight back and did not seem weak in that moment.
Zhuo Yun touched his chin. Fine. He should not have said anything.
Huo Yao gazed at Min Yu from behind. She said nothing and headed out instead.
When she left home, she had claimed that she would be back soon. However, two hours had gone by since. She wondered how much nagging her second older brother was going to give her.
The moment Huo Yao and Min Yu stepped out of the villa entrance, they caught sight of Huo Tingrui standing on the roadside under the lamp.
Huo Yao rubbed her forehead. She knew this would happen.
Min Yu followed Huo Yao’s gaze and looked at Huo Tingrui. He narrowed his eyes and said, “Is he waiting for you?”
Huo Yao nodded and replied softly. “It’s my second older brother.”
Min Yu did not seem surprised. After contemplating for two seconds, he followed Huo Yao.
Huo Yao greeted him in a subdued manner when she came closer. “Brother Tingrui.”
Huo Tingrui acknowledged her softly before his eyes landed on Min Yu.
He was quite good-looking and had a dignified aura. Huo Tingrui’s eyes turned into slits and he could not help looking at him sharply. “Who is he?”
“He was my tuition teacher,” replied Huo Yao, using her fool-proof excuse without even batting an eye.
Min Yu’s lips twitched. He automatically disregarded Huo Tingrui’s hostility and nodded politely. “h.e.l.lo.”
Since Huo Tingrui had already heard of Huo Yao’s tuition teacher, he could not help feeling surprised when he heard this.
A 23-24 year old tuition teacher?
How could he be that young?
Why did he not look like a tuition teacher to Huo Tingrui?
Huo Tingrui glanced at his little sister quizzically. Since she did not seem to be lying, he greeted Min Yu. “h.e.l.lo, Sir!”
Huo Yao quietly covered her face when she heard Huo Tingrui greeting Min Yu in such a respectful tone. She coughed before she said, “Ahem, Brother Tingrui, it’s getting late. Let’s go home.”
Huo Tingrui glanced at her. He was glad she finally realized that it was late!
However, Huo Tingrui said nothing. He nodded courteously to Min Yu before heading in with Huo Yao.
Min Yu watched them with his deep eyes before turning to enter his villa.

As they walked to the door, Huo Tingrui found something to be amiss. He turned his head to look at his little sister as she entered the main entrance pa.s.sword. “Who was that...”
After Huo Yao entered the last digit, she raised her hand to interrupt him solemnly, “Don’t ask.”
She would deny it if he asked.
Huo Tingrui went speechless.
He had never met anyone as self-righteous as his baby sister.
Huo Yao walked in after opening the door.
Huo Tingrui stood where he was, lost in his thoughts. Just as he was about to enter the villa, car headlights came from behind. He halted in his steps and turned.
Huo Tingrui opened the main gate to let Song Ning’s car in when he saw their mother coming back.
