Chapter 282: The Huo Family’s Straight-A Student
Huo Xiang opened the gift pack, and it swelled into a panda plush toy. He looked at Huo Yao with sad puppy eyes.
Huo Yao coughed drily. “The panda is our national treasure and an auspicious symbol. Don’t your fans call you their mascot? I thought it was meaningful.”
“That’s different!”
Huo Xiang felt that he had lost his image as an older brother. He seriously suspected that Huo Yao was treating him like a younger brother.
No, correction.
Maybe she did not even see him as a younger brother. This plush toy was a kind of gift that only girls liked.
Huo Tingrui suddenly felt great satisfaction when he saw how depressed Huo Xiang was.
In reality, it hit Huo Xiang harder when the blow came from Huo Yao.
Huo Yao parted her lips and wanted to say something but was interrupted by her father.
“You don’t want it? Why don’t you give it to me then? I don’t have any cute things to place on my bed.” Huo Jinyan glanced at his youngest son.
Huo Xiang was crushed under his father’s pressure and muttered softly. “I didn’t say that.”
“She already got you something, so stop being picky,” sneered Huo Jinyan.
Huo Xiang was appalled.
“!!!”
He was swiftly losing any and all significance in the family.
Song Ning put her perfume aside and asked her. “Yao, did you receive a trophy?”
Huo Yao nodded. “Uh huh.”
She went to her luggage and opened it to remove the trophy, certificate, and the guaranteed admission letter for Tsing University.
Although the trophy and certificate were both symbols of glory, the guaranteed admission letter for Tsing University was priceless.
Song Ning could not help recalling how she was suspicious initially when her daughter had shown her the confirmation letter of admission into No.1 Middle School.
Song Ning felt her face burning up in shame at the memory.
Her daughter now had guaranteed placement in Tsing University even though she had yet to take the college entrance exam. This daughter of hers was genuinely full of surprises.
“I have to take some pictures and post them on social media so that everyone can see our family genius!”
Huo Jinyan took out his phone and placed the trophy, certificate, and Tsing University’s admission letter together before taking several pictures from all angles. Then he combined them into a three by three grid image and posted it online.
Huo Yao smiled and let him be. She looked exhausted and yawned. “Mom, Dad, Brother Tingrui, and Brother Xiang, I’m heading up to my room to rest. I have to wake up early for school tomorrow.”
“Sure.”

After Huo Jinyan posted the picture online, a bunch of people left comments, praising Huo Yao.
Lu Xia also was a contact on his social media. The moment she saw the trophy, certificate, and Tsing University’s admission letter, she felt like squeezing the phone to bits.
It was Huo Yao! Why was it her again? Her phone had been flooded with Huo Yao’s name today.
Everyone on social media kept talking about how Huo Yao ranked first in the National Quiz Contest and even in the class chat group, they were discussing the same thing. It felt as though she became everyone’s goddess after being declared the national champion.
Lu Xia felt utterly disgusted when she saw everyone commending her nonstop. They seemed to have forgotten how judgemental they used to be about Huo Yao just a few days ago.
Useless bunch of people!
Lu Xia flung her phone away. She tossed and turned restlessly on her bed. Huo Yao used to be mediocre in Lu Xia’s past life. It was unfathomable how she could end up completely different in this lifetime!
