Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss - Chapter 293

Chapter 293: Huo Yao’s Brother Complex

Time went by swiftly. Before long, it was time for Huo Yao’s English oral competition.

The education channel employees had come to shoot the entire competition. They wanted to air a special about it.

An exhibition hall on the second floor of the Sports Center was rented for the competition. For the sake of creating the right atmosphere, the television station even invited an audience to sit in the spectator seats beneath the stage.

Huo Yao had participated in it purely for the $100,000 scholarship. She had her earphones plugged in during the entire journey.

A fellow participant quietly went up to her and asked her when she noticed the earphones. “Are you listening to an English recording?”

Huo Yao looked at the female student. Just as Huo Yao was about to reply, the girl said, “Mind if I have a listen?”

Huo Yao paused. Then she removed her earphones and graciously handed them to the girl.

However, the girl could only hear some pop music when she placed them in her ears. She was dumbstruck. She stared at Huo Yao and remained in a daze for sometime.

Since the competition was about to commence, everyone was busy memorizing their script. On the other hand, Huo Yao was listening to pop music… Was this the right time to listen to songs, even if Huo Yao was listening to the girl’s idol?

“What do you think? Was it good? I think their leader’s voice sounds great.” Huo Yao pulled the album’s cover art out on her phone, and pointed at the man on it. “He also looks handsome.”

The female student was from another class. She was at a loss whether to laugh or cry as she looked at Huo Yao.

Word had it that Huo Yao from the Experimental class was aloof. However, after Huo Yao recommended the song and spoke about her idol, she seemed to be no different from an average fangirl.

Huo Yao was so down to earth!

The girl also stopped looking at her English script and started talking about music with Huo Yao.

The English teacher came back after drawing lots for her students and almost passed out when she heard what they were discussing. She quickly split them apart and counseled them for a few minutes before handing out everyone’s number tags.

Almost 50 people had signed up for the contest, and the teachers drew lots to determine their order of appearance.

Huo Yao was the 21st contestant, right in the middle.

It was Huo Yao’s turn an hour later.

The moment she came on stage, the spotlights beamed at her, making her flawless complexion look even more exquisite. Her calm and collected aura seemed to be completely innate.

Huo Yao suddenly noticed two suspicious looking characters in the last row when she looked at the audience from the stage. Her lips twitched uncontrollably.

She veered her eyes before greeting the teachers unhurriedly. Before long, she started speaking in fluent English.

Huo Yao narrated a passage from a rather famous poetry collection. In comparison to the other students, she had not brought any notes along.

She was unperturbed and confident when she faced the audience and the judges. Also, her pronunciation was impeccable. Needless to say, of all the contestants, she performed the best.

In all probability, she was bound to be the champion.

After her three-minute speech, the audience applauded warmly. Huo Yao took out her phone the moment she went backstage.
