On the way to the cafeteria, Si Huan asked Huo Tian about what happened in the morning. Only then did he find out that Huo Tian had been picked on by Huo You several times in such a short time.
Zhao Feng complained, “Luckily, this Miss Huo has never seen Huo Tian fight. Otherwise, how would she dare to target Huo Tian?”
Huo Tian stared at Zhao Feng for a long while before she suddenly realized something and said, “I was wondering why you looked so familiar. So you’re the one who helped me fight, uh…”
“My name is Zhao Feng.” Zhao Feng said gloomily, “I remember that I had introduced myself back then.”
Huo Tian did not feel apologetic at all. She circled a small area on her head. “I’ve placed all my unimportant memories in this region. I’m usually too lazy to go through them. It’s not that I don’t remember you.”
Zhao Feng’s expression was crestfallen. “Thank you, I wasn’t consoled at all.”
Bi Ying seemed to be very interested in Huo Tian’s explanation. The two of them talked excitedly about the different functions of each area of the brain.
Their conversation made Zhao Feng shudder.
He leaned over to Si Huan and whispered, “Do they usually talk about such scary topics as well? How did you get used to it?”
Si Huan chuckled. “They’re just exploring the truth. I just need to give them my support so they can implement their thoughts into actions. And don’t you think they’re cute?”
Zhao Feng turned around to look at Huo Tian and Bi Ying, who was one step behind them. Bi Ying had his head lowered, letting Huo Tian circle out the sections on his head, listening to her explain what functions each area of his brain had…
“How is that cute? What’s wrong with your eyes?”
Zhao Feng pulled his hair crazily. “Ever since you got involved with Huo Tian, you’ve changed. Now even your eyesight is abnormal. Why don’t you go to the hospital for a checkup?!”
Huo Tian asked doubtfully, “Which one of you wants to go for a checkup? Is there something wrong with your brain too?”
Si Huan shook his head and laughed. “Now your ears aren’t working. Both of our brains are pretty good. Zhao Feng was just joking just now.”
Black lines appeared on Zhao Feng’s forehead. “That’s right, I was just joking. But what do you mean by that?”
Huo Tian said, “We were talking about Huo You. Bi Ying and I both think that there’s something wrong with her brain. Otherwise, why would her IQ drop the moment she sees me? I don’t want to argue with an idiot, but I find it annoying. It’s really upsetting.”
Mr. and Mrs. Huo also felt that once their biological daughter faced Huo Tian, she would easily lose her cool and led to her always doing stupid things.
After hearing Huo You’s complaints about the school and Huo Tian, they couldn’t help but doubt Huo You’s intelligence.
Mr. Huo said in a low voice, “I sent you to school so that you can learn, and not for you to compete with others nor to embarrass the Huo Family!”
Huo You felt so aggrieved that tears welled up in her eyes. “Dad, Huo Tian was the one who embarrassed the Huo Family! She never studied hard when she was still in the Huo Family, but after she left, her grades improved by leaps and bounds. Isn’t she saying that you and my mom don’t know how to educate children? I’m just angry that she’s deliberately defaming our family’s reputation!”
However, Father Huo was not convinced by Huo You’s reason. He said coldly, “You don’t have to find an excuse. I know you don’t want Huo Tian to appear in school because her existence will remind others that you had been left outside for more than ten years. In the past, I thought you were a good daughter who could make us proud, so I went along with your wishes to chase Huo Tian away. But now, it seems that my decision back then wasn’t wise…”
Huo You’s face turned pale. It was as if she had returned to her past life. No matter how hard she tried, she could not get her parents to take her seriously. Huo Tian, on the other hand, was the opposite. As Si Huan’s wife, no matter how cold she was to her parents, they still smiled sweetly at her and praised her in front of outsiders.
The father in front of her seemed to overlap with the father from her previous life. Huo You felt like she had become the low-esteem and cowardly woman from her previous life. She pleaded softly, “Daddy, don’t treat me like this. I’ll work hard…”
However, Huo You’s abnormal behavior was met with a look of disgust from Mr. Huo. He said to Mrs. Huo, “You’re her mother, so you should try to persuade Huo You and let her understand what she should do.”
Mrs. Huo nodded elegantly. “You can go ahead and do your work. Leave this to me.”
After Mr. Huo left, Mrs. Huo walked up to Huo You, raised her hand, and gave her a tight slap. “Are you sober now?”
Huo You covered half of her face, her shoulders twitching, but she didn’t dare let out a sob.
Mrs. Huo’s tone was still slow and composed. “Huo You, you really disappoint me. I don’t care if you hate Huo Tian nor what you want to do to her, but I can’t stand you using such stupid tricks on her!”
“Mom?” Huo You looked at her with teary eyes.
Mrs. Huo stroked Huo You’s messy hair gently. “Good child, you have to learn how to deal with your enemies without batting an eyelid. Think about it carefully.. What advantages do you have compared to Huo Tian? How do you use these advantages to deal a fatal blow to your enemies?”
