The first black car started its engine just when the Dean came out with the students. The men standing beside the cars started getting in one after another.
A student looked over and noticed that all the license plates were consecutive numbers and shouted out in surprise. “Look at those license plates.”
Although he did not say it very loudly, the man who was getting into the car heard him, and turned to stare daggers at him.
The kid instinctively shivered and shrank towards his fellow schoolmates.
Huo Yao looked at all the commotion lazily before shifting her eyes away in a nonchalant manner.
The Yu family’s chauffeur hurriedly bowed with respect. After those cars pulled out of the lane, he wiped the cold sweat from his brow and sighed.
He turned to open the minibus door and told the students to climb on, without offering any explanation.
After they boarded the bus, the student who had become frightened earlier, finally composed himself. With fear still lingering on his face, he mumbled softly to his schoolmates. “That guy was so scary. It seemed as though he was an assassin straight out of a drama.”
“Totally. His eyes said it all.”
Most of the students, who made it to the nationals, were kids from normal families and had never encountered blood or darkness. They were mostly innocent and carefree.
Huo Yao gazed out of the bus’s window with a calm and profound look on her face.
Yi Lianfan was sitting beside Huo Yao. He could not help turning to look at Huo Yao when he heard what the two kids sitting in front of them said.
From the moment they laid eyes on those people, she did not seem as startled as the other students. She looked so calm that it felt as though they had merely encountered some ordinary people.
Despite coming from a high standing family in City S and having met many influential people, Yi Lianfan was instinctively afraid when he saw those people. But he hadn’t reacted as strongly as the others.
In comparison, Huo Yao seemed far more at ease in the presence of such powerful people.
“Weren’t you afraid earlier?” asked Yi Lianfan softly.
Huo Yao turned her head and answered Yi Lianfan in a serious tone. “Of course, I was.”
Yi Lianfan was baffled. “?”
Did she look afraid to begin with?
Huo Yao’s phone pinged in her pocket.
Min Yu: [Where’s your hotel?]
Huo Yao replied candidly: [Somewhere near Tsing University.]
Min Yu: [Are you revising or coming out tonight? The city sights are pretty decent at night.]
Medicine Pill: [The Principal will probably break my leg if I go gallivanting around at night. (serious face JPG).]
Min Yu laughed gently. The coldness on his face was replaced by slight languor, and the warmth spread through the car.
Yang Yi’s jaw almost dislocated in shock when he caught sight of his boss laughing in the rearview mirror.
What was going on?
He had never seen Min Yu look this way before.
It was awfully scary!
However, Zhuo Yun, sitting in the front passenger seat, seemed accustomed to his boss’s sudden 180 degree change in personality.
He failed to notice the look on Yang Yi’s face. Instead, he turned back to look at Min Yu. “Yu, shall we invite Miss Huo to dinner?”
