Lu Xia pondered over it for a few seconds before she looked at He Xiaoman and asked. “Mom, doesn’t Dad know someone in the Education Association?”

He Xiaoman was surprised by her question. But she nodded and replied confidently. “Yes, he does. He often has tea with the Education Association’s chairman. I told your father about you participating in the quiz, but I’m not sure if he told the Chairman about it.”

She took her phone from the coffee table and said, “Hang on. Let me call your father and ask him about it.”

Lu Xia nodded with a smile on her face while she kept squeezing her knees every now and then, trying to suppress her nervousness.

Soon, He Xiaoman finished the call and raised her head to look up at Lu Xia. She said, “Your father says that you can go ahead with your exams with a peaceful mind. He mentioned this matter to his friend and told him that your strength lay in the field of science. The chairman will find an appropriate chance soon to recommend you to a renowned teacher in the capital.”

A huge wave of joy swept through Lu Xia’s eyes. Since there were talented people aplenty in the capital, if she found herself a famous teacher, she could both disregard Huo Yao and even the Lu family’s support.

The gloominess which had been hovering over Lu Xia all night, dissipated and she exhaled subtly. She sat down next to He Xiaoman and held her arm affectionately.

“Thanks, Mom. You and Dad are the best. I’ll be diligent and definitely won’t let you down.”

He Xiaoman looked at her lovely daughter with a completely different expression from how she used to see her foster daughter. She could not help feeling fortunate.

She patted Lu Xia’s arm and said, “I’m so glad you are my biological daughter.”

Lu Xia rubbed her head on He Xiaoman’s shoulder and concealed the dark expression on her face without speaking any further.

The seniors at No.1 Middle School welcomed their first monthly quiz for the term the next day.

Everyone in the class was nervous and fearful about the test except for Huo Yao. Most of the students were still doing last-minute revision right before they entered the exam hall.

The school had multiple exam halls and was particularly strict about the monthly test this time. Each exam hall was equipped with cheating detection equipment. Some students who had secretly brought in their phones and notes were all singled out one by one. It was impossible to cheat.

Although Huo Yao signed up for the National Quiz Contest and stood first in both tests, she was a new transfer, and the test seating was based on last term’s grades, so for the sake of fairness, she was assigned to the last exam hall.

The 30 students whose performance was the worst, were the ones assigned to the last exam hall.

The moment Huo Yao entered the hall, all the other students who were already seated turned to look at her curiously.

Almost all the batchmates knew about her quiz results. Although only a minority had questioned her results, they existed nonetheless.

Some of the students had even speculated that the school suddenly conducted the monthly test in such a hurry to help quieten down those rumors about Huo Yao entering the school through a backdoor. Or else, Huo Yao would never have gotten assigned to the worst exam hall.

Huo Yao was unaware of all this. She was assigned to the last table in the exam hall without any other students on her sides. It seemed as though she was deliberately isolated from the other students.

It was clearly a differential treatment.
