In the car, Song Li secretly glanced at the man in the back seat through the rearview mirror a few times. The lines on his face that used to be cold and hard seemed to be softened today, and his thin lips seemed to be slightly curled. With many years of experience working beside him, Song Li felt that Huo Yanqing was in a good mood.
So he boldly asked the question that he had been holding in his mind for a long time, "Fifth Master, why didn't you just help Miss Shu directly? With just one sentence, you asked Principal Wang to fire Yu Xiaoxiao, the troublemaker. Wouldn't everything be settled? ?”
Song Li had been standing next to Huo Yanqing. He was extremely anxious when he saw Yu Xiaoxiao slandering Shu Xin. However, his fifth master seemed to be fine and did not make any move while holding the tea cup.
Huo Yanqing was in a really good mood. She didn't mind Song Li being noisy, but started chatting with him, "What kind of person is Shu Xin in your eyes?"
"Ms. Shu is smart, beautiful and talented. She has her own opinions and ideas in doing things. Her performance in Principal Wang's office just now was so satisfying. She got almost perfect marks in the on-site exam. She used her strength to explain everything and blocked everyone's mouth. This is what I see. The most outstanding and special girl ever.”
Song Li said a lot in one breath, with an excited expression on his face as if Shu Xin was his child. He was proud and happy for his child's excellence.
"Yeah." Huo Yanqing affirmed and asked, "Then do you think she wants me to help her?"
"This..." Song Li frowned and thought, he really hadn't thought about this.
Just listen to Huo Yanqing say: "If she wants me to help her, she can ask when she enters the principal's office, but she doesn't even say hello to me, why?"
Song Li seemed to understand what Huo Yanqing meant, and said tentatively: "Miss Shu, you want to solve the problem by yourself, and don't want to rely on you?"
Huo Yanqing leaned Xin's long body on the back of the chair and curled her lips slightly, "She is an independent and strong girl who doesn't want to rely on anyone. And if I intervene in today's matter, I can solve her temporary dilemma. , but my identity will cause her more trouble."
Song Li now fully understood that if Huo Yanqing directly helped Shu Xin solve the problem today, a shrewd person like Principal Wang would definitely doubt the relationship between Huo Yanqing and Shu Xin.
Shu Xin was still a student. If she got involved with someone as powerful as Huo Yanqing, people at the school might not know what they would say about her.
The incident involving Master Xiaobai is a good example. Miss Shu was obviously innocent, but she became the public enemy of all the girls in the school and was ostracized and insulted by everyone.
In this way, Huo Yanqing was actually protecting Shu Xin.
The fifth master of his family always considered matters comprehensively. Song Li felt that it was difficult to express his admiration for Huo Yanqing even by paying homage.
"Call Shu Xin later so that she can come to you for help no matter what happens in the future." Huo Yanqing said after a moment of silence.
Song Li nodded with a smile, "Okay, Miss Shu will definitely be very happy if she knows that Fifth Master is so attentive to her."
Huo Yanqing frowned slightly, "Don't tell her it was me who ordered her."
"Ah?" Song Li looked puzzled, "Why?"
Huo Yanqing tilted her head back on the seat and closed her eyes, "Drive well."
"...Oh." Song Li fell silent instantly. Even though he was extremely curious, he didn't dare to say another word. His fifth master was very thoughtful, and it was not for someone like him to speculate.
