Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Guo Miao had already booked a flight back to Haicheng tonight. She would return to Haicheng after the birthday banquet.
She also missed her classmates from Haicheng High School, as well as her father and brother.
[Goddess Miao, hurry back and help me with my homework. Without you, we’re all going to die.]
Guo Miao smiled at Zhong Nian’s words.
“It’s really rude of you to keep your head down and stare at your phone on such an occasion. I don’t know what you’re laughing at.” A harsh female voice sounded beside her.
Guo Miao turned around and saw that it was Su Ning.
Probably because the two of them were not relatives of the Tong family, they were arranged to sit at the same table.
Guo Miao ignored Su Ning and continued to reply to messages on her phone.
Su Ning was friendly in front of the old lady, but when she was with her, she was so mean. Guo Miao did not want to interact with such a two-faced person.
Seeing that Guo Miao was ignoring her, Su Ning was a little dissatisfied. She reached out and pulled her arm. “I’m talking to you. Is the illegitimate daughter of the Guos from Haicheng this rude?”
When Guo Miao heard this, she suddenly raised her head and stared into Su Ning’s eyes.
Su Ning shrugged indifferently. “I know your father is probably a food and beverage supplier, but your biological parents should be from the Guo family in Haicheng, right? At that time, they wanted to announce your true identity at the banquet, but they didn’t announce it in the end. I wonder if you faked it.”
Guo Miao stared at Su Ning.
Did Su Ning investigate her?
“I have nothing to do with the Guo family in Haicheng. Miss Su, you like to pry into other people’s privacy. Is this an example of the Su family’s courtesy?”
Upon hearing this, Su Ning sneered. “Of course, I have to investigate you. You’re the girl next to my fiance. Why can’t I investigate you?”
Guo Miao was confused. “Your fiance?”
Su Ning sneered, “Don’t you know? Tong Pei and I have been engaged since we were young.”
Guo Miao understood what Su Ning meant.
Su Ning had probably misunderstood their relationship. She must have assumed that she was Tong Pei’s girlfriend.
Guo Miao’s mood suddenly changed, but she couldn’t tell why.
“What do you mean by staying silent? Do you really have that kind of relationship with Brother Tong Pei?” Su Ning stared at Guo Miao in disbelief.
Before Guo Miao could react, Su Ning shoved her hard. The guests at the same table stared at the two of them.
Only then did Su Ning realize that she had lost her composure. She quickly withdrew her hand, but she still warned Guo Miao, “Don’t think about marrying into the Tong family. The Tongs value their status very much. With your background, it’s impossible for them to accept you.”
Guo Miao almost laughed out loud. This was modern society, not ancient times. What kind of family was this?
“Miss Su, it’s better not to pry into my privacy. This has nothing to do with you.” Guo Miao was ready to end this meaningless conversation.
“What do you mean? You stole my fiance and won’t even let me investigate you. Are you afraid that I’ll find out some even worse secrets?” Su Ning frowned at Guo Miao.
“I’m a high school student now, and I don’t plan to fall in love at a young age,” Guo Miao said. “Besides, I have nothing to do with the Guos in Haicheng. My family is very ordinary, but that has nothing to do with you.”
Su Ning probably felt that her relationship with Tong Pei was not straightforward.
However, in Guo Miao’s heart, although her relationship with Tong Pei was close, they were just friends. At most, they had some intimate feelings.
As for marrying Tong Pei, Guo Miao had never thought about it.
To her, there were more important things to do. She could not waste her time on such romantic matters.
After Su Ning’s drama, Guo Miao wanted to leave early.
There were still six hours before the plane took off, so it was fine to go to the airport earlier. Guo Miao packed her bag and planned to bid Grandma Tong farewell before heading to the airport.
Just as she stood up, someone pushed her hard, and her bag fell to the ground.
A delicate box fell out of the side pocket of her school bag. Guo Miao’s pupils constricted when she saw the box..
