The matriarch has returned; that spendthrift son is truly daring!

From Huo Xiaoyu's tone, Huo Linyu realized that she actually admired this new classmate very much, and even liked her a little.

But because of Jiang Qianyun's matter, she didn't have the courage to take that step. Huo Linyu rubbed her head, his voice gentle.

"Xiaoyu, do you really like Jiang Qianyun as a friend? Or is it just because she's my fiancée that you're deliberately trying to please her and flatter her at every turn?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Xiaoyu froze, and fearing that Huo Linyu would misunderstand, she hurriedly explained, "Big brother, I... I didn't mean to dislike Qianyun. She is your fiancée, and I..."

Before Huo Xiaoyu could finish speaking, Huo Linyu had already seen through her thoughts and said softly with a smile, "Xiaoyu, she is the Huo family's designated fiancée, but that has nothing to do with you, does it?"

"Brother, I..."

She was afraid that Jiang Qianyun wouldn't want to marry her older brother, because of his leg...

Although the doctor said that the older brother's leg was slowly starting to recover.

But after three years, my older brother still couldn't stand up.

If Qianyun doesn't want her elder brother either.

How would they view the eldest brother?

She just didn't want her older brother to suffer further blows and insults.

Huo Linyu felt sorry for Huo Xiaoyu's sensible nature, despite her seemingly carefree, brash, and rude appearance.

She will treat those who are good to her with the utmost sincerity.

When she was first taken back by the Huo family, she was as thin as a monkey.

Although she appeared prickly, he understood that she was timid and insecure, afraid that the Huo family would not accept her.

Huo Sijing's parents were very biased towards her, treating their biological daughter like a troublemaker. But did they ever think that she was also a child?

He was very busy during that period, spending his days either working or traveling abroad.

He is the researcher of the Huo family's latest scientific research robot, praised by everyone in the Huo family and envied by everyone outside.

He only slightly defended Huo Xiaoyu.

Three years ago, he fell to the lowest point in his life. Everyone could only feel sorry for him and began to ignore him or even humiliate him. Only Huo Xiaoyu raised her fist and beat him to death.

Stand firmly in front of him, protect him in every way, and think of him.

He felt guilty, so he did everything he could to make amends and treat her well.

Jiang Qianyun's personality is indeed very unlikable; she is too self-righteous and overly prejudiced.

He knew his sister didn't like being friends with people like that, but it was because of him that she was afraid she would be ridiculed after Jiang Qianyun broke off her engagement with him.

Naive girl.

"Xiaoyu, I know you mean well, but I don't like Jiang Qianyun."

It was like that before, and it is like that now.

Huo Xiaoyu asked anxiously, "Big brother, is it because of your leg? Big brother, the doctor said that you will definitely be able to stand up again. I am also working hard to learn medical skills. I believe you will be able to stand up again. Big brother, we can't give up easily."

Huo Linyu shook his head. "Xiaoyu, I know, and I also believe that my legs can stand up again, but I will break off the marriage with the Jiang family. I don't like Jiang Qianyun."

Huo Xiaoyu lowered her head, "Big brother, are you afraid of me...?"

"No, Xiaoyu, what I want to tell you is that people live for themselves. Don't compromise yourself, try to please others, or force yourself to do things you don't like or associate with people you don't like because of me. You just need to be happy."

Huo Xiaoyu looked at him with teary eyes and nodded heavily. Although her older brother was no longer engaged in scientific research, he was still the head of the Huo family, and no one questioned his abilities.

His older brother is outstanding and doesn't need anyone to make him stand out.

Song Yanzhao and Xiaoxu walked for a whole night and a whole day, finally returning home at dusk.

The two were thirsty and hungry, with no cell phones and no money, and they didn't even have a sip of water to drink.

Looking at the familiar buildings, Xiao Xu couldn't help but complain, "Song Yanzhao, I'm really fed up with you. There was a car that could take us for a while, but you just wouldn't take it and insisted on walking. You're crazy!"

Song Yanzhao remembered that the person in the car was Fu Shuya. He didn't want to explain too much or bring it up.

When people are at their lowest point, they always encounter the people they least want to face.

The ancients never lied to me.

As soon as I got home, I saw Song Shuyue and Song Yanzhou having dinner.

Ignoring his own dirt, he climbed inside, pounced on the dining table, and began to eat voraciously.

They didn't even use chopsticks; they just grabbed it with their hands.

Anyone who didn't know better would think it was a starving ghost that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Fortunately, Song Shuyue was already full, otherwise she would have kicked the person away.

Just as Song Yanzhou was about to pick up some food, he saw how ravenously he was eating and put down his chopsticks in disgust.

"Delicious, delicious! Second brother, your cooking is great! You have no idea how hungry I was! I'll never do it again, boohoo~"

Song Yanzhao ate while crying, it was unclear whether he was repenting or happy.

Song Shuyue: "I'm going to rest."

After saying that, he went upstairs.

Seeing his younger brother's disheveled and unkempt appearance, Song Yanzhou didn't say anything more and silently cooked him another bowl of noodles.

Jing Yuan's method of accepting apprentices was very simple: whoever could answer the test he gave them—a prescription for medicine—would have a chance to become his apprentice.

Answers were taken by computer, so there is no risk of leakage.

Jiang Yu finally received the exam questions an hour before the exam. As a medical professor, no one could prescribe the standard formula better than him, so he gave the answers to Jiang Qianyun.

Jiang Qianyun was confident this time; she was certain she would become Master Jing's apprentice and a role model for the entire family.

Brother, if you don't believe me, just wait and see!

Song Shuyue looked at the symptoms in the last section. How come they were exactly the same as a certain symptom in her medical books? Not a single word had been changed. Could it be that the old man's medical books from hundreds of years ago had a copy?

Jiang Qianyun was the first to hand in her paper and walked out confidently. Today, she was the only one who could become an apprentice!

It can only be her!

When Huo Sijing came out, she found that Jiang Qianyun was already in the outer area. She bit her lip, knowing that Jiang Qianyun's grades were undoubtedly excellent in the college.

The exam selected fifty people, all of whom were personally chosen by Jing Yuan. They all went to Jing Yuan's courtyard one by one.

The thought of meeting the renowned Professor Jing filled many students with excitement.

Huo Xiaoyu, in particular, never expected that she would be chosen by Master Jing; she was incredibly lucky.

"Haha, I never thought I, Huo Xiaoyu, would be selected! Song Shuyue, I'm so happy!"

Huo Xiaoyu patted Song Shuyue's shoulder heavily.

Song Shuyue glanced at her unhappily, and Huo Sijing, Jiang Qianyun and others all gave her disgusted looks. Huo Xiaoyu immediately shut her mouth.

Jiang Yu was furious that even though he had given his niece the most standard answer, so many students still stood out. He gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

Upon unexpectedly seeing Song Shuyue, his expression instantly betrayed his true feelings!

What's this girl doing here!

Shouldn't she have been eliminated?

She's just arrived at the academy; how could she possibly pass the basic exams?
