Huo Yanting was busy working in his study all night and had no idea that Su Miao had slept in the living room all night.
The next morning, Su Miao left with the luggage she had brought earlier, before Liu Ma had even woken up.
At seven o'clock, Huo Yanting went downstairs to have breakfast. He saw Liu Ma carrying breakfast out, but he didn't see Su Miao anywhere, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
"Sir, is Madam still not awake? It's time for breakfast."
Huo Yanting sat at the dining table without answering.
He had just returned to his bedroom to wash up when he saw that the blankets were neatly folded, and there was no sign that anyone had slept in them all night. He guessed that Su Miao must have left last night.
Ha, she really can't wait!
"She's gone."
"Gone? What do you mean, sir?" Aunt Liu asked in surprise. Did Huo Yanting mean that Su Miao had left?
"What I mean is, Su Miao is gone." Huo Yanting repeated, looking at the breakfast on the table, he suddenly lost his appetite.
So he stood up, grabbed his coat from the chair, and left the villa.
Looking down at the breakfast spread on the table, Aunt Liu sighed.
What's going on?!
...
As expected, the headline of the next day was about what happened at the Huo Group banquet the day before.
#Breaking News! The author of "The First Abandoned Concubine" is someone else#
#Is Huo's wrap party ironic?#
Such topics kept emerging, and Huo was caught in a vortex of media reports all day long.
This time, it was indeed the Huo Group's fault, and the Huo Group should apologize to the original author.
Therefore, at noon, Huo's Group issued a statement on its official Weibo account, stating that it would fully pursue Fu Mushan's legal responsibility and provide appropriate compensation to the original author.

After leaving Jinlin Bay, Su Miao found a hotel and stayed for two days. During these two days, she planned to look for an apartment, and then she would look for a job.
She would accept any job, no matter what it was, because she had no formal education.
She spent the morning at the hotel and received many phone calls.
There were phone numbers for the president of Haicheng University, Bei Miaoqiu, Lin Ze, and even Mao Anwen.
She first received a call from the principal. "Su Miao, it's like this. We've all seen the news today. You didn't steal your roommate's necklace. The school and teachers misunderstood you. So, the teachers sincerely request that you return to school to continue your studies. What do you think?"
"Principal, I don't want to go back to school." Su Miao repeated her statement; she would not return to Haicheng University.
Su Miao was well aware of what had happened yesterday and why the principal had called her today to ask her to return to school.
Because yesterday's events have been clarified, Fu Mushan was the one who stole the necklace. Plus, she's a witness, so they can't deny it. Haicheng University is under pressure from public opinion, which is why they called her.
Otherwise, why would a prestigious university president call her, a mere lackey, repeatedly?
"Um... Su Miao, you need to understand that if you come back to school, you can still get your graduation certificate and degree. You can even pursue a master's degree. Your future is bright. But if you don't come back, you'll be someone without a degree, and no one will want you when you go out to find a job!"
"Principal, you don't need to worry about that. It's all my own business. I'll hang up now, thank you, Principal." Su Miao said and hung up the phone.
They weren't sincerely inviting her back, so why should she be so presumptuous?
