"Could it be that Mr. Zou helped?"
"Hey, do we still need Mr. Zou? Look, Quan Kun is sitting over there."
Mr. Zou walked over to the small table and sat down, which made the small table seem even more crowded.
When Quan Si saw Zou Zhui and the other person, he always wanted to quarrel, so he left and went to the bathroom first.
I walked to the backyard of Xu's house while humming a tune, and then I heard a burst of shouting and cursing in front of me.
"What's wrong with you? How could you cheat? You actually did such a shameful thing! Do you know how much I expected of you? Now look what a shame you've made!"
Quan Si hid in the corner without saying a word, watching Xu Miao with her head down, one hand holding her other arm.
Because I was wearing short sleeves, my arms were covered with bruises, and some places were even bruised from being pinched.
"You're embarrassing me. Do you know how embarrassed I was just now?"
Xu's mother completely ignored the bruises on Xu Miao's arm and pinched it again.
"ah!"
Xu Miao cried out in pain and tears fell.
"Why are you crying? How dare you cry? I thought you got first place, and I was going to brag about it, but I didn't expect you to cheat!"
"I'm sorry, Mom. I was wrong...I won't do it again..."
"Besides, why are you arguing with Xu Shengyi? Don't you know what's going on if you bring her back? In two years, you have to fulfill your promise to the Mu family and marry that sickly bastard Mu Yicheng. Otherwise, if you don't bring Xu Shengyi back, you'll be the one marrying her! How can I bear to marry you to her?"
Xu Miao suddenly looked up when she heard this.
"Mom...this...how come I never knew about this?"
"Just study hard now. Knowing this will only distract you."
Xu Miao endured the pain in her arm, her eyes lighting up.
"I...I'm sorry, Mom. I will never let you down again. I will study hard in the future...I will bring honor to you!"
Mother Xu felt bad when she saw her daughter's eyes turned red.
Gently raised her hand.
"That's what a good daughter is like. I don't have the heart to hit you, but I want you to remember this lesson. Go get some medicine, I have to go to the front to greet the guests."
"Um!"
Xu Miao left happily, returned to her room, and skillfully applied medicine to herself, her mind in a mess.
She is not the daughter of the Xu family, but a child picked up by the Xu couple since childhood!
This was something she had overheard earlier. She was afraid that the Xu family would chase her out of the house if they found their biological daughter, so...
Then she would deal with Xu Shengyi in advance!
I just didn't expect that Hu Xiuxiu from Qingshui County was so incompetent! She actually let Xu Sheng enter the Xu family alive!
But just now her mother actually told her such a thing.
I think my mother is still on my side now, so I just need to maintain it.
As for Mu Yicheng.
With his sickly body, Xu Sheng will be a widow for the rest of her life if she marries him!
Banquet lobby.
After Quan Si came back.
"Sister Xu, your family brought you back because they wanted you to get married!"
"Um?"
Huai Jiuchen looked at Quan Si.
"As for that sickly Mu Yicheng from the Mu family in Lincheng, his parents are both dead, and he's not very well liked by the old man of the Mu family. His life in the Mu family isn't easy either. Every day he lives is a blessing."
"Mu Yicheng?"
Quan Kun naturally knew this person, and then pointed to a small table in the corner.
"Over there. He came here today too."
Following Quan Kun's gaze, there were two people sitting at a small table on the other side. One of the men was very thin and often covered his mouth with his hands while coughing.
It seems that he is not in good health.
The other person looked quite energetic, but Quan Si felt that he looked a little familiar.
"Old Man Quan, who is that person next to Mu Yicheng? He looks familiar to me."
"Fan Shuangliang, from the Fan family in Lincheng, is a pretty good kid. No one in Lincheng wants to associate with Mu Yicheng, but Fan Shuangliang is the only one who's willing to get along with him and take care of him. Even those who want to bully Mu Yicheng are chased away by Fan Shuangliang."
"Fan? What's the relationship between that person and Fan Jianfei?"
"You're talking about Fan Jianfei from Class 19 of the school. He's Fan Shuangliang's younger brother. By the way, you two should know each other."
Su Changfeng looked at Mu Yicheng for a long time.
"This man... Uncle Jiu, this man must be Pu Xingling's son, right?"
"Yes, Vice Principal Su, he is the grandson of the old man from the Pu family in Beijing. He sometimes comes back to the Pu family, and the old man has always wanted to take him back to take care of him, but for some reason, he has always stayed here."
"I'm afraid very few people know about this. Mr. Pu is quite old, and Pu Xingling was his beloved daughter, but she died young, leaving behind only this one grandson. Naturally, he has to take good care of him. He's not even welcomed in Lincheng. Mr. Pu would be heartbroken if he knew."
Su Changfeng sighed.
"Are you engaged?"
Huai Jiuchen didn't care about anything else, but he caught the fact that there was an engagement.
"The Xu family has more than one daughter. I think Xu Miao is a good one."
How could the person he likes end up in someone else's arms?
“…”
Xu Shengyi also looked over, and Mu Yicheng happened to look up, meeting Xu Shengyi's gaze, then smiled gently.
"Yicheng, are you interested in Xu Shengyi? I heard from my brother that Xu Shengyi is quite good."
"I like it? I'm afraid that person won't agree."
"who?"
"Huang Jiuchen."
"Him? He's not from the capital...? Why is he here?"
Although Fan Shuangliang had never met Huai Jiuchen, he had heard of the name of the Ninth Master of the Capital.
