Chapter 529: Meng Ying Felt As Though She Was Walking On Air
Even though most of her friends said the same thing about the photo, Meng Ying was surprised.
Her cousin had never praised anyone before.
Meng Ying touched her nose. She recalled wanting to introduce Huo Yao to him, so she tapped on her chat group with her cousin and sent him a text.
[My cla.s.smate looks even better in person.]
After Meng Ying sent the message, she saw her cousin composing a message, so she did not turn off the screen and waited for him to reply.
Two minutes later, she could see that her cousin had stopped composing a text, but she had yet to receive a message from him.
After feeling puzzled for a few seconds, she typed: [h.e.l.lo?]
Meng Ying ended up seeing a red exclamation mark and a system notification that said the message was sent but rejected by the recipient.
Meng Ying was clueless. “???”
What was going on? How could her cousin have blacklisted her?
Everything was normal when she texted him earlier!
Meng Ying was at a loss and had no idea what was going on.

Before long, the two of them finished lunch.
The restaurant manager even asked for Meng Ying’s phone number to register a VIP account for her. He beamed brightly the entire time and was extremely respectful.
It was all a blur when Meng Ying became a restaurant VIP which was a grade higher than being a normal member. She felt as though she was walking on air.
She had read online about this restaurant. People could only get members.h.i.+p if they hit an annual spending limit. However, she was given a VIP card...
After Huo Yao received a call from her father standing by the roadside, she turned to look at Meng Ying. “Are you okay going back on your own?”
Meng Ying looked at Huo Yao and hurriedly shook her head. “It’s fine. Go ahead. I can hail a cab from here.”
Huo Yao placed her phone back in her pocket. “Okay.”

30 minutes later at the Huo residence.
Huo Yao spotted a pair of shoes at the door when she entered. She paused for two seconds before she changed into her slippers unhurriedly.
After entering the living room, she caught sight of Lin Shuwen. Huo Yao narrowed her eyes.
Her flawless face became a little cold before she composed herself. “Mom, Dad, I’m back.”
Song Ning and Huo Jinyan raised their heads and greeted their daughter in unison before Huo Jinyan said, “Mr. Lin is here to see you.”
Lin Shuwen stood up and looked at Huo Yao with a gentle smile on his face. “Miss Huo, h.e.l.lo.”
Huo Yao’s eyes landed on Lin Shuwen calmly. Her voice clearly made it sound like he was unwelcome. “Yes?”
Lin Shuwen noticed that Huo Yao seemed unhappy and slight anger was emanating from her.
Lin Shuwen felt a little surprised in his heart and did not expect a normal middle school student to have such a powerful aura.
Lin Shuwen composed himself. He adjusted his gla.s.ses and coughed as he pointed at a pile of beautifully packaged gifts on the coffee table and said, “Mr. Fang sent these gifts to thank you for...”
Before Lin Shuwen finished his words, Huo Yao frowned and interrupted him. “It’s fine. You have already paid the consultation fee, so you didn’t have to come by personally to thank me.”
She was unsurprised that he would visit. After all, Old Mr. Pei mentioned that the patient had a high status. All it took was a simple investigation to find out where she lived.
However, she did not appreciate the unannounced visit.
