Huo Feng took out his phone. “It must be those unreliable friends of mine who gave me the wrong number for Sister. Sister, tell me your current contact number and save my phone number too.”

After exchanging their numbers, Huo Feng looked at the familiar number and was a little stunned. “It’s this number. The last time I called, Sister was very cruel to me!”

Huo Tian thought really hard and then recalled a certain scene. Facing Huo Feng’s accusing gaze, she blinked without feeling any guilt. “The last time you called, I stayed up all night. I was woken up after having slept for less than an hour…”

Before he could finish, the accusation on Huo Feng’s face turned to guilt.

“I’m sorry, Sister. I just took my phone back then and found out about you. I didn’t think much about it and called you.”

Huo Feng scratched the back of his head embarrassedly and changed the topic stiffly. “Sister, have you been doing badly recently? I feel that you’ve lost a lot of weight and there are dark circles under your eyes. You mentioned that you stayed up all night. Are you unable to rest well?”

“No, I just like to stay up late because my mind is the most active at night…”

The siblings, who had reunited after a long time, chatted non-stop at the door. Si Huan was a little unhappy. He raised his wrist to look at the time and then interrupted the touching reunion.

“Huo Tian, class is starting soon. Are you going to stay at the school entrance?”

Huo Feng glared at Si Huan. “Si Huan, my sister has just talked to me for a little while. Why are you being such a busybody?!”

Si Huan, as the current head of his family, and Huo Feng, as the successor to his family, had met a few times at banquets. In the past, they would just nod and greet each other coldly. Today, the atmosphere between them should be a little more relaxed since they had met at school, but Si Huan didn’t understand why Huo Feng’s attitude towards him was so bad.

However, Si Huan didn’t like Huo Feng either, so he didn’t care about his attitude.

Si Huan ignored Huo Feng’s questioning and reminded Huo Tian again, “I’m on duty today. As your friend, I don’t want to deduct your morality points.”

Huo Tian pouted unhappily but still gave Si Huan face. “Alright then. It’s only because you’re the president of the student union.”

Huo Feng immediately looked like a big dog that had been abandoned by its owner. He looked at Huo Tian with teary eyes and complained, “Sister, we haven’t seen each other for so long. Don’t you want to have a good chat with me?”

He seemed to frequently use this attitude to act spoiled towards the original Huo Tian. Back then, Huo Tian would almost always agree to whatever Huo Feng asked.

Huo Tian subconsciously raised her hand, only to realize today that she couldn’t reach Huo Feng’s head at all. However, Huo Feng took the initiative to squat down a little so that Huo Tian could rub his hair.

This action between them seemed to have happened countless times. Everything looked so harmonious and loving.

“Brother, although I’m no longer in the Huo Family, I’m still in this city and haven’t gone far. We’ll have many more opportunities to get along in the future.”

A lonely and aggrieved expression instantly covered Huo Feng’s face. “Sister, you won’t take your anger out on me, right?”

“Of course I won’t take my anger out on you. You’re Huo Tian’s favorite brother!” Huo Tian didn’t say the latter part out loud, but she thought that since the original Huo Tian liked Huo Feng so much, she would help him take care of her brother.

After receiving the promise, a satisfied smile appeared on Huo Feng’s face. He continued to keep chatting with Huo Tian for quite a while before finally letting her enter the school gate before the first bell rang.

However, he didn’t turn around to leave. Instead, he stood rooted to the ground and watched Huo Tian’s back view. After the bell rang, only the student union members on duty remained behind at Qingli High School’s school gates, catching the students who were late.

Si Huan and Huo Feng’s gazes met inadvertently and they both noticed the faint hostility in each other’s eyes.

They were like two male lions who were patrolling their respective territories. Although there was no erupting conflict between them yet, they were warning each other with their gazes not to get any closer.

The inexplicable confrontation between them ended because of a group of late students.

“You guys are late. Report your classes and names one by one.” Si Huan picked up his notebook and started carrying out his duties as the president of the student union.

Because Si Huan had turned his gaze away first, Huo Feng felt that he had won, so he snorted in a good mood.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard someone ask, “Huo Feng? Is that you?”

The person who spoke was a girl who was late. She was with a group of rich second-generation heirs who Huo Feng recognized. She looked like she had a lot of prestige.

Huo Feng had never liked these noisy profligates. Although he didn’t know Huo You, he guessed that the people with this group of people weren’t good people. On the account that their families had friendly relations, Huo Feng casually nodded at them.

“Hello, I just came back this morning. I came to visit my elder sister.”

A girl laughed exaggeratedly and then winked at Huo You. “Youyou, Huo Feng has taken the initiative to come to school to look for you, his elder sister.. You don’t have to worry about not getting along well with him anymore, right?”
