378: Huo Yao, Do You Have Two Mothers?

Huo Yao, Do You Have Two Mothers?

Huo Yao sat up straight. "Do I look like I'm patronizing you?"1

Meng Ying glared at her. Huo Yao sure as hell was patronizing her!

"I don't know either." Huo Yao shrugged.

"Fine. I seriously used to think Lu Xia was pretentious, but I didn't imagine that she would be so evil. She stole your brother's track, gave it to someone else, and accused him of plagiarism."

Meng Ying tutted before she continued. "Fortunately, the recording got posted online. Otherwise, there's no way your brother could have cleared his name. I wonder who on earth it was. How could he have managed to obtain a recording like this?"

Huo Yao raised her brow and said proudly, "Maybe this god is right under your nose."

Meng Ying smiled without taking Huo Yao seriously. She went on to say, "Sister Big Shot, you should pray to this god. After all, his recording saved your brother's career."

Huo Yao looked at her quietly without talking.

"Lu Xia didn't come to school today. I reckon she is too embarrassed to come anymore after this scandal hit the roof. She really asked for it," sighed Meng Ying.

Huo Yao contemplated. Given her personality, Lu Xia was certainly embarrassed but not enough to skip school.

The last period in the afternoon was self-study.

Huo Yao was doing revision when her homeroom teacher asked to see her.

After they left the classroom, Chen Yu asked, "Huo Yao, I have a question. Do you have two mothers?"

Huo Yao looked puzzled. "Huh?"

Since Chen Yu had seen Song Ning before, she found it strange when another woman claimed to be Huo Yao's mother. Hence, she told the woman to wait at the office while she checked with Huo Yao.

Chen Yu coughed before saying, "A woman claiming to be your mother came looking for me. She goes by the name He."

Huo Yao instantly realized who it was. She said with a calm expression, "She is my foster mother."

Chen Yu noticed the cold look on Huo Yao's face and said, "She's in my office now. Do you want to see her?"

Huo Yao contemplated for two seconds and nodded.

He Xiaoman must be here because of what happened to Lu Xia. Even if Huo Yao refused to see her, He Xiaoman would make other excuses and come knocking on her door. Hence, Huo Yao might as well deal with it once and for all.

Before long, Huo Yao followed Chen Yu to her office.

Chen Yu let Huo Yao into her office before going next door and told Huo Yao to look her up if anything went wrong.

Huo Yao thanked Chen Yu before entering the office.

He Xiaoman was sitting on a chair. Her superbly made-up face seemed particularly elegant and her perfume wafted throughout the office. When Huo Yao turned up, she looked at her coldly.

Huo Yao looked at her and cut to the chase. "Yes?"

He Xiaoman frowned when she detected the complete lack of respect in Huo Yao's tone. She stood up and said coldly, "Aren't you even going to call me Mom?"

Huo Yao pursed her lips and looked at her teasingly. "Madam He, you must have a poor memory. Have you forgotten the bitter fallout we had at the hospital?"

He Xiaoman had not foreseen such blatant arrogance from Huo Yao. Her face instantly sank. "You rude child!"
