Wu Miao paused for a few seconds before she asked. “Why are you suddenly asking about this?”
“Yin Hai called them the Huos earlier. I’m not sure if it’s the same surname that my mother mentioned.” Shen Si raised her cup and drank some coffee.
Perhaps she felt a little sensitive when she heard about celebrities with that surname because her mother had talked about it last night.
“Are they the Huos?” muttered Wu Miao.
Last night when they looked at Weibo, Lucky’s little sister’s nickname had a ‘H’ in it. Also, she saw people coming up with a list of surnames starting with ‘H’ in the comments’ section.
She replied with a shrug. “Perhaps.”
Wu Miao glanced at her cousin and continued. “Don’t tell me that you think Lucky is the celebrity your mother was talking about last night?”
Shen Si pursed her lips. That was exactly what she was thinking, but she quickly decided against it.
If Lucky hailed from a family whose business was one of the top 100 companies in the world, why would they look like farmers? His little sister looked all the more like she was from the countryside.
“Perhaps I was overthinking it,” Shen Si said and shook her head.
Although Shen Si felt it was unlikely, she wanted to know what kind of family Lucky was from.
She pulled her phone out and sent her friend a text message to ask what he had learned about Lu Xia’s background.
Before long, her friend sent her a document.
Shen Si tapped on it to accept the file.
Her assistant also arrived at the same time.
Shen Si closed her phone and scolded her assistant a little. After taking her temper out on her assistant, she felt a little better.
They paid the bill and left the cafe.
After they got into the car, Shen Si pulled out her phone again and tapped on the file that her friend had sent.
It contained complete details about Lu Xia.
Her name was Lu Xia, but she used to go by Huo Xia. She was 18 years old, studied in the Rocket Class in No.1 Middle School, and had excellent results.
Her foster family consisted of regular white-collar workers while her biological parents hailed from a rich family in City S.
…
Lucky’s foster sister went by the name Lu but used to be a Huo, so it made sense for Yin Hai to call them the Huos.
It seemed that Lucky’s surname was Huo and his parents were regular white-collar workers.
Hmph!
After Shen Si was done reading the document, she sneered before putting her phone back in her pocket.
Sure enough, she was overthinking it. How could these siblings have anything to do with one of the top 100 companies in the world?

Meanwhile, in the car.
Huo Yao wanted to close her eyes and rest when her phone rang in her pocket.
It was a slightly different ringtone, so the moment she heard it, she opened her eyes and straightened her body to retrieve her phone swiftly.
Huo Xiang had never seen his little sister take a call so seriously, so he could not help turning to look at her quizzically.
Huo Yao pulled her hoodie off and straightened her hair before she answered the call and tapped gently on this screen to open a video call with the caller.
Her grandmother’s profile instantly appeared on the screen. She was probably out for a walk, so the footage was a little shaky.
“Grandma,” said Huo Yao in a warm tone.
Yang Qiuhua’s heart went soft when she heard her granddaughter’s voice. She promptly saw Huo Yao’s face on the screen.
She was stunned, but not entirely unsurprised. After all, Huo Yao would change it to a video call every time they spoke on the phone.
