When Huo Yanxi on the other end of the phone heard this, he was silent for two seconds, and said lightly: "I have a few friends here, and there may be other arrangements for a while, they are all a group of big men, and it is not very convenient to bring a little sister, so why don't you make an appointment another day." ”

When Huo Tingrui heard this, he only said casually: "It's okay, I'm still driving, hang up first." ”

"Hmm."

After hanging up the phone, Huo Ting sharpened his mind, turned his head to look at Huo Qi, and didn't mention the eldest brother at all, but said a little ruffian: "Little cutie, have you thought about where to eat?" ”

Cutie?

The corners of Huo Qi's lips twitched, her expression was inexplicably a little complicated, her second brother was a little skinny.

"Forget it, let's go home, my parents must still be waiting." She shook her head and replied.

Huo Tingrui thought about it, but he didn't insist anymore, after all, there is no need to squeeze in this day to celebrate, it is okay to celebrate tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

In short, a sweet date with my sister must be arranged for a reason.

***

When Lu Xia returned to Lu's house, it was almost seven o'clock.

He Xiaoman had just arrived home for a while, she was still holding a glass of water in her hand, and looked at her daughter suspiciously, "Why did you come back so late today?" ”

"It's a bit of a delay at school." Lu Xia was very annoyed, so he was a little absent-minded when he spoke, and he didn't say that he had been to the hospital.

He Xiaoman didn't doubt him, and after sitting down on the sofa, he seemed to think of something, and said, "Your competition is out today, right?" ”

Lu Xia just put the small bag down, and when she heard He Xiaoman ask, her eyes were a little dark, "Well, it's out, 186 points, ranking tenth in the country." ”

When He Xiaoman heard this, he frowned, and turned his head to look at her, "Didn't you rank sixth last time?" Why is it only ranked 10th this time? ”

Lu Xia seemed to have guessed that she would ask like this, and only replied very calmly: "The preliminary examination is different from the official preliminaries, the difficulty coefficient is much higher, and there are many people who tied for sixth place with me in the last preliminary examination, there are more than 120 students in the country, I can enter the top ten, and then I have a great hope of entering the national finals." ”

Although He Xiaoman didn't understand this kind of competition situation too much, she was really good at hearing that among the more than 120 students, she could get into the top ten.

After all, she also knew that the people who participated in this competition were top students from all over the country.

He Xiaoman's face softened a lot in an instant, "Mom doesn't understand, I thought your grades had regressed this time, but now it seems that my daughter is really good." ”

Lu Xia lowered his eyes and didn't make a sound, just walked to the sofa next to him and sat down, slowly pressing his eyebrows with his hand.

"By the way, how is that Huo Qi's results?" He Xiaoman put down the water glass in his hand and asked casually.

Lu Xia's hand paused slightly, and subconsciously replied: "I don't know about this, I didn't pay so much attention to this." ”

He Xiaoman thought of the face she had lost in front of the doctor in the hospital because of her adopted daughter, and her eyes became cold, "Xia Xia, you are your mother's pride, you must crush Huo Qi in all aspects, do you know?" ”

When Lu Xia heard this, a touch of embarrassment crossed her eyes, that country girl had taken the first place in the exam both times, how could she crush it? What did she crush with?

Pulling the corners of his lips self-deprecatingly, Lu Xia didn't say anything, just a perfunctory 'um'.

He Xiaoman didn't notice Lu Xia's expression, after thinking about it, she said again: "That's it, during this time, my mother will hire a tutor for you to concentrate on reviewing." ”
