Huo Yao glanced at Fang Ting as she contemplated that Lucky’s little sister was sitting right in front of this person.
Huo Tingrui coughed before he turned his head. He quickly overlooked his displeasure when he first saw Fang Ting and said, “Who did you say you liked?”
Huo Tingrui naturally knew about his little sister appearing on Huo Xiang’s live telecast since he had watched it as well.
Fang Ting was not keen on talking to Huo Tingrui because of their encounter at the matchmaking event. Also, she knew what her mother was trying to do by bringing her here. Hence, she did not say a word to him.
Huo Tingrui did not get upset. Instead, he raised his brow and said, “Do you know who the girl wearing a mask on the program is?”
The moment he uttered those words, Huo Yao placed her hand on her stupid second older brother and looked sideways at him. “Brother Tingrui, are you trying to misbehave again?”
Huo Tingrui smiled sheepishly before he shut his mouth.
He had made a mistake. There were three bosses in his family.
Fang Ting looked at Huo Tingrui quizzically and finally said, “What did you mean by that? Do you know her?”
Huo Yao turned to look at Fang Ting and smiled. “No, we don’t.”
She texted the little princess to come back later.
Huo Tingrui’s lips twitched.
Fang Ting did not keep probing and took out her phone.
Huo Yao patted her second older brother’s shoulder and gestured atr him to entertain their guests before she stood up and headed upstairs.
She went past Huo Yulin’s room after she reached the landing. Since his door was slightly open, she paused for a couple of seconds before she knocked on the door.
Before long, he told her to enter.
Huo Yao entered to see Huo Yulin with his glasses on as he sat in front of the computer at the desk. He seemed to be busy typing something.
Huo Yulin stopped working and clicked save before he shut the desktop. He removed his glasses and looked at Huo Yao. “You are back!”
Huo Yulin was not a social person, so he had been hiding upstairs in his room the moment the guests arrived.
Huo Yao walked over and sat down on an empty chair beside him. “Uh huh. Are you busy?”
Huo Yulin glanced at the computer before he replied. “Not really. Since I was free, I decided to continue working on a thesis. I am behind the deadline.”
Huo Yao nodded.
“Oh yes. The acupuncture you did for me this morning was really effective. There must be something different about your technique, right?” Since Huo Yulin was a doctor, it was normal for him to realize that something about her method was distinct.
Huo Yao swung her legs as she said, “Chinese medicine is all about technique. Although all acupuncturists use the same acupoints, the effects differ using different techniques.”
“That makes sense. From the looks of it, you are a highly skilled acupuncturist. Are you planning to major in Chinese medicine?” asked Huo Yulin.
“Nope. I will probably major in biology.” Huo Yao shook her head.
She already knew everything there was to know about Chinese medicine. If she had to pick a major, she wanted to choose something new.
Huo Yulin was caught by surprise. After all, girls barely chose research since they found it to be dry. Secondly, research was a dangerous occupation. It was hard to walk down the path without talent and confidence.
Huo Yao looked at him and said, “Shall I do some psychological therapy on you at night?”
Huo Yulin went quiet for a few seconds. “I just suffer from a lack of sleep, so I don’t need psychological treatment.”
Huo Yao detected his aversion towards therapy. Since he could not be rushed into or forced to do it, she changed the subject and said, “Oh yes. I heard you saying that our eldest uncle is unwell.”
