Fang Ting stood where she was for a while before she finally recalled where she had seen Huo Yao before.
Oh yes, it was on a live stream. She had seen her on the live stream program, ‘Countryside Life With My Family’.
Fang Ting pulled out her phone and turned on the live stream application. Soon enough, she found images of Huo Xiang’s little sister wearing a mask.
Fang Ting was spot on about finding her familiar. Huo Yao turned out to be Huo Xiang’s little sister.
Fang Ting blinked in shock. Her idol was right in front of her, but she had failed to recognize her.
Fang Ting stomped her foot and felt annoyed.
Why did she bitch about the womanizer to Huo Yao? If she had the chance to chat with her, she should have talked about something else.
The scum had ruined the precious time that she had with Huo Xiang’s little sister.
Fang Ting looked at Huo Tingrui, who had walked over.
“Ptooey,” said Fang Ting angrily before she turned to leave.
Huo Tingrui halted his steps and was at a loss. “?”
After Huo Yao left, she headed to the bathroom. Her phone rang in her pocket when she came out.
It was Huo Tingrui calling her.
She picked up the phone and spoke to him briefly before hanging up.
Huo Yao did not return to the matchmaking event. Instead, she headed out of the park. When she left, she looked in the direction of the park bench she was sitting at.
Min Yu was nowhere to be seen, so she veered her eyes away.
Huo Tingrui was waiting at the park entrance. Huo Yao noticed the foul mood he was in. She removed her mask and asked perplexedly. “What’s wrong?”
Was he not happy to chat with the ladies at the matchmaking event?
Huo Tingrui glanced at his baby sister. He certainly could not bring himself to tell her about what happened with Fang Ting since it was so embarrassing.
Huo Tingrui inhaled deeply and smiled. “Nothing.”
“Did you find any nice girls at the matchmaking event?” asked Huo Yao casually.
Huo Tingrui felt his temples throb. “Nope.”
He raised his hand to check the time before heading to the parking lot. “It’s almost lunch. Let’s go grab a bite.”
Huo Yao raised her brow and followed behind him.

The car arrived at a posh five-star restaurant in the city center 30 minutes later.
Huo Yao got off and waited for Huo Tingrui to park the car. When he came back, she said softly, “I didn’t bring my wallet today.”
Huo Tingrui’s lips twitched. “…I did.”
Also, this restaurant belonged to the Huo family.
Huo Yao straightened her back and walked into the restaurant in front of him.
The moment she stepped through its doors, she saw its extravagant interior. She could not help sighing in envy. It was wonderful to be rich. Rich people could reside in luxurious homes, enjoy fine food, and lead lives that could not compare to living in the countryside.
The lobby manager had just received some guests. After he walked out and saw Huo Yao, his voice paused automatically. “W-welcome!”
The manager clearly sounded excited when he was welcoming them into the restaurant.
Huo Yao glanced at the man. She suddenly found him dreadfully familiar. Where had she seen him before?
Huo Yao contemplated briefly. She recalled that her father had ordered takeout several times previously. He was the man who delivered their meals.
She glanced at his badge. After a brief shock, she said in admiration, “You seem to be doing well in the restaurant.”
The delivery man had surprisingly gotten promoted to a restaurant manager so quickly.
He must be good at his job.
The restaurant manager coughed before he answered nervously. “My boss was kind enough to promote me.”
“Keep up the good work!” congratulated Huo Yao from the bottom of her heart.
The manager straightened his back and said with sheer resolve. “I will!”
Huo Yao went speechless. “…”
