Chapter 555: Chapter 555 The Great Devil Comes_1 Chapter 555: Chapter 555 The Great Devil Comes_1 “What? You…how could you apply for another university?” a flabbergasted Mr. Mi responded, “You’re at the national level, and you’re actually applying to National Security University? Are you out of your mind?”
Nan Fei glanced at Mi Yuezhen meaningfully, “I’m not crazy, I think the one who is crazy is your granddaughter. She’s so obsessed with fame and fortune that she’ll do anything. As your granddaughter, she’s merely disgracing you.”
Hmm! She, Jiang Nanfei, was not a pushover, and she was quite vengeful!
Mi Yuezhen’s repeated insults were far too much. Luckily, she was reborn and had the composure to stay calm. Had she been this rural girl she was in her previous life, wouldn’t she have wanted to jump into a river out of shame and rage?
Mr. Mi was shamed to the point of wanting to die, both because of Mi Yuezhen and himself. It was he who had forgotten his original intent because of the praise he had received over the years. He had been influenced by his granddaughter, hence the elementary errors he had made, turning into the person he despised most.
He used to criticize others for viewing the world through a narrow lens, and now he had done the same.
“I’m sorry!” The man of advanced age bowed respectfully and solemnly to apologize, “I formally apologize to you, please forgive my earlier rudeness.”
Nanfei didn’t dare to accept his bow and quickly stepped aside, “Mr. Mi, there’s no need for this.” His actions left her at a loss.
“This is what we owe you.” Not only did Mr. Mi apologize, but he also insisted that Mi Yuezhen apologize, “Mi Yuezhen, you owe her an apology.”
“Grandfather!” Mi Yuezhen shook her head in horror. She had lost everything, Nanfei had destroyed all that she had worked hard to achieve. No, she wouldn’t apologize.
“Mi Yuezhen!” Mr. Mi’s tone was thunderous and filled with anger, “You will apologize immediately.”
“Grandfather…” Her grandfather had never addressed her by her full name before, nor spoken to her in such a severe tone.
“No need!” Nanfei flatly refused, “I don’t need anyone’s apology.”
Unable to hold back, He Shasha quipped, “If apologies were useful, we wouldn’t need the police! Hmph!”
“…” Nan Fei was surprised and looked at He Shasha. Did all the rich second generations love to use this catchphrase?
She remembered a TV show from her past life, this was a favorite phrase of the male protagonist.
Outside the National Guest Restaurant, a jeep pulled up sharply, performing a stable 180-degree drift to end up perfectly at the entrance. The harsh squeal of the emergency brakes startled the restaurant staff. The manager rushed over just in time to see Huo Beijiang getting out of the car. The sight almost made him fumble and drop the tray he was holding.
“Captain Huo, you’ve arrived!” The manager gushed, “Please come in.” Oh no! The last time Captain Huo came, he nearly tore down the restaurant. The manager could only hope there wouldn’t be trouble this time.
Huo Beijiang did not even glance at the manager, but strode straight ahead. As soon as he entered, he saw Nanfei standing facing the entrance. His cool and serious face gradually softened, and the corner of his mouth lifted slightly.
Drawing up a hint of a brazen curve.
As she was speaking, Nanfei sensed an intense gaze from the entrance. She looked over and fell unexpectedly into Huo Beijiang’s deep eyes.
The person she longed for day and night suddenly appeared before her, and Nanfei thought she was hallucinating. She rubbed her eyes instinctively, but the more she rubbed, the more unrealistic it seemed.
“Huo…” Before she could speak, she was abruptly pulled into an embrace.
Huo Beijiang’s arms wrapped around her like steel, pulling her tightly into his chest. The strength in his embrace suggested he wanted to melt her into his body.
