Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Ning looked at Guo Miao.

Guo Miao was also looking at her with a cold gaze. She could see the disdain in her eyes.

Guo Miao didn’t even bother to argue with her. She had lost everything in front of this high school girl.

“Alright, everyone, I’ve made a fool of myself today. I, this old hag, apologize to everyone.”

Just as everyone was looking at each other in dismay, Old Madam Tong interrupted.

”Su Ning grew up by my side when she was young. Her parents and I are friends regardless of age. She can be considered my half-granddaughter. “Today, everyone will give me some face,” the old lady said. “Today’s food was carefully prepared by our head chef, Auntie Zhang. Everyone, go back to your seats and enjoy it.”

After Old Madam Tong said that, everyone returned to their seats.

Today was Old Madam Tong’s birthday banquet, so she couldn’t possibly ruin the mood.

Hearing Old Madam Tong’s words, Su Ning felt her heart turn cold. The words “half-granddaughter” completely negated her engagement with Tong Pci.

Seeing that everyone had taken their seats, Old Madam Tong looked at Su Ning. Her originally warm eyes suddenly turned stony.

Su Ning looked at Tong Ling pleadingly. “Tong Ling, you and I picked the necklace. You know what happened after that. Say something.”

Tong Ling avoided her gaze. Since Old Madam Tong had spoken, what else did she have to say?

Tong Ling cursed Su Ning in his heart for being an idiot, but she still squeezed out a forced smile. “Su Ning, I didn’t really buy those jade stones before. You know that too. It’s understandable that I couldn’t distinguish them from genuine ones. Moreover, at that time, I only saw Guo Miao walk into that room. I didn’t see her steal the bracelet.”

Su Ning was instantly stunned.

Was her so-called best friend going to abandon her at a time like this?

Su Ning felt her scalp go numb. She followed the old lady out of the banquet hall but not before casting a hateful look at Guo Miao.

The meal continued without any drama. Guo Miao and Tong Yao said their goodbyes and prepared to go to the airport.

The Tong family had specially prepared a car for Guo Miao to go to the airport.

Guo Miao opened the car door and was surprised to find that the person sitting in the driver’s seat was none other than Tong Pei.

“Aren’t you going to stay?” Guo Miao asked.

Tong Pei shook his head and patted the driver’s seat, signaling her to sit down.

The car drove steadily to the airport. Guo Miao didn’t say anything, and Tong Pei didn’t have any intention of speaking either. The atmosphere in the car was a little awkward.

The weather in Beijing was very good. Guo Miao looked at the sky outside and sighed softly.

“I know there’s the matter about my engagement with Su Ning, but that’s just a joke between the parents.” Tong Pei’s sudden words startled Guo Miao.

Her mind spun a few times, but she still couldn’t understand what Tong Pei meant.

Did Tong Pei mean that she shouldn’t misunderstand?

Guo Miao didn’t ask any further. She just nodded lightly. “It’s okay. I won’t hold it against you for what happened today.”

The situation with Su Ning was nothing. Moreover, she would not have any chance to interact with Su Ning in the future, thus she did not want to argue with her about this.

Tong Pei only nodded slightly and did not say anything.

However, Guo Miao felt that something was not right. For some reason, Tong Pei seemed a little disappointed.

“It’s okay. If you like it, you can consider it.” Guo Miao regretted her words as soon as she said them.

When Tong Pei heard this, his expression seemed to turn a little colder.

Guo Miao didn’t know why this was happening, so she shut her mouth and didn’t know what to say.

The car returned to its original quiet atmosphere.

Guo Miao looked at Tong Pei from the corner of her eyes. Tong Pei’s usually cold face seemed to have a hint of anger.

Guo Miao didn’t quite understand. Was he upset because of what she said earlier? However, that sentence didn’t seem to mean anything.

If the old lady did not like Su Ning, but he liked Su Ning, it was not impossible for him to pursue his love.

The car stopped at the airport departure gate.

Tong Pei took the luggage out of the trunk. His face was tense the entire time as if he was throwing a tantrum.

Guo Miao didn’t understand.. What did she say to provoke him? Why did his expression suddenly change?
