Auto-roaming was already activated on her phone. Shortly after Huo Yao turned it on, she received a text from Huo Yulin.
Lin: [Have you disembarked?]
Huo Yao buttoned her jacket before she replied: [I just did.]
Lin: [Okay.]
Huo Yao locked the phone screen and placed the phone in her pocket. Then she took her luggage and headed out with the other contestants.
A few minutes later, they walked towards the exit.
Since it was not crowded at the airport at this hour, Huo Yulin walked over the moment he saw Huo Yao come out.
“Y-Yao…” Huo Yulin sounded a little lukewarm when he called his little sister, perhaps because they were meeting for the first time.
Huo Yao went into a daze when she saw this tall skinny third older brother with skin so fair that he looked like he had not gone out in the sun for years.
After a while, she finally greeted him. “Brother Yulin.”
Huo Yulin nodded. His slim handsome face was expressionless. He ended up looking somewhat stiff and unnatural probably because he was trying to be friendly.
Huo Yao touched her nose. She glanced at the other students nearby and said, “Brother Yulin, we can talk when we get to the hotel.
Huo Yulin nodded. “Will get my car.” Then he walked ahead.
Huo Yao told her teacher about the situation. Then she obtained the hotel address and left with Huo Yulin.
Inside the car.
Huo Yao sat in the front passenger seat. She did not play with her phone and sat with her hands on her knees. There was some stray hair falling from the side of her face, and she appeared elegant and quiet.
Huo Yulin leaned into the car seat and looked at her from the corner of his eyes every now and then.
His biological little sister was not what he had imagined. Huo Yao was calm, and gave off a languid aura. She did not seem like a typical vain girl.
Huo Yulin cleared his throat and broke the silence in the car. “How long will the contest last for?”
Huo Yao glanced at him sideways and said unhurriedly, “Two days.”
After a pause, Huo Yulin said eventually, “I will get someone to show you around.”
Huo Yao raised her hand and pulled the stray hair behind her ear. She did not take it to heart when she heard her third older brother say that he would get someone to show her around instead of going with her personally. She only replied indifferently. “It’s fine. The teacher has probably made plans.”
Before coming here, Huo Tingrui had already told her about her third older brother’s personality.
He was cold, unsociable, and did not like being close to people or talking to them. He had a slight case of misanthropy.
If her family hadn’t kept pressuring him, he might not have even turned up at the airport today.
Huo Yulin looked at Huo Yao through the rearview mirror with a nonchalant look on her face. He parted his lips and wanted to speak but finally explained after a long time. “I’m not comfortable going to crowded places.
Huo Yao replied with a shrug. “Yeah, it’s fine. Don’t worry about it, Brother Yulin. I will explain things to Mom and Dad.”
Huo Yulin heaved a sigh of relief.
The car was completely silent. Huo Yao took out her phone and lowered her head to tap the screen with her slender fingers. She quickly sent her father and mother a text to tell them she had arrived safely.
Huo Yulin looked at his little sister again and labeled her as an understanding person in his heart.
Before long, the car arrived at the hotel that the school had booked.
Huo Yao opened the door and got off the car. She automatically went to the boot and unloaded her luggage. Although Huo Yulin wanted to help, he was not needed.
