"It's late. Why aren't you asleep yet, Brother Yulin?" Huo Yao entered the villa calmly.
Huo Yulin paused for a second before he raised his head and explained. "Uncle Changfeng called me an hour ago."
Huo Yao's mouth twitched.
Uncle Changfeng was clearly guarding against Min Yu.
Well done.
Huo Yulin stood up and did not continue talking. "Rest early. I'll take you to the union tomorrow."
"The union? For what?" Huo Yao was surprised by his words.
"To take assignments."
Huo Yao veered her head slightly. "For the test to be the heir?"
"Uh huh." A serious look appeared on Huo Yulin's face. In the end, he simply let out a long sigh. "The battle isn't over yet."
Huo Yao was completely unworried. "No problem."
Huo Yulin parted his lips wanting to speak, but then he thought about his little sister's mind-blowing performance today and shut his mouth.
Perhaps if he opened his mouth, he might end up slapping his own face again.
Huo Yulin went upstairs dejectedly.
Huo Yao did not know what to say, looking at her brother's expression.
**
The next day.
After breakfast, Huo Yulin brought Huo Yao to the union.
The union building was tall and imposing. At the top of the building, a prominent logo that smelt of money could be seen. From a distance, it was so bright that it seemed like it could make someone go blind.
Huo Yao walked into the building. When she saw the extravagant décor, she suddenly remembered the time she appeared on a live entertainment program with her fourth older brother. The moment he got triggered, he would buy lavish gifts on the show.
From the looks of it, the trait ran in the family.
Tsk tsk.
Inside the lobby, when Huo Yao and Huo Yulin came over, the person in charge quickly walked over to welcome them. The moment he saw Huo Yao, his eyes lit up. "Hi, Miss Huo."
He nodded to Huo Yao before he greeted Huo Yulin by the side.
Huo Yulin simply glanced at him.
Huo Yao was a little surprised that he could recognize her. She nodded politely. "Hello."
The person in charge laughed a couple of times before he quickly ran to the lift and pressed the button.
Huo Yao raised her brow. "Why do I feel as though I'm a celebrity here now?"
The person in charge was not alone. The other employees in the lobby were also secretly looking at her. Their stares were so intent that it was impossible for her to overlook them.
"You have no idea. The things you did yesterday have already left them amazed." Huo Yulin felt both emotional and pleased with her. "You have completely stolen the limelight from Huo Wanying."
The Huo family was all about meritocracy. The stronger they were, the more people respected them. Moreover, even though his little sister had not shown her face much and there were a lot of rumors about her, her performance yesterday was nothing short of awe-inspiring.
Aside from her fighting abilities, she had incredible shooting skills. Could anyone else present do the same?
After the test ended yesterday, someone posted a video clip of her shooting in the group chat. Before Uncle Changfeng was able to use it to help her gain a standing, their subordinates already started idolizing her.
She certainly did not need any help!
Huo Yao placed both hands in her pockets and said casually, "I will keep a low profile next time."
Next time?
Complicated emotions flooded Huo Yulin's heart. They had the same parents, then why the huge gap between them?
Before long, the lift arrived on the top floor.
In the main meeting room, over ten people were already sitting at the square conference table. It consisted of councilors representing each region, along with the elders.
Other than the two other candidates in the running to be heir, Huo Wanying was not there yet. She only entered when the meeting was about to begin.
