Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Why are you here?” Guo Miao slowly propped herself up and looked at Tong Pei who was standing at the side.
Tong Pei did not seem to have slept well. The dark circles under his eyes were very heavy, and he seemed to be very tired.
“Have you been waiting for me to wake up?”
Tong Pei nodded.
“Where’s my dad?” Guo Miao asked.
“Uncle went to the ward next door to rest for a while. Don’t worry.” Tong Pei took a cup of water from the other table and handed it to Guo Miao.
Guo Miao took the cup and took a sip. She then listened to Tong Pei talk about what had happened in the past few days.
Fu Xin and Xu Yue were arrested, and Xu Sheng was transferred to Haicheng Second Middle School according to Guo Miao’s promise.
“Have you investigated the Raspberry Jam?” Guo Miao asked.
“I’ve already asked Jack to investigate, but this matter still needs some time. Nevertheless, 1’11 increase the number of people protecting you in the future. 1 don’t want to see you get hurt again.”
Guo Miao sighed softly. After her rebirth, although her life was much better than before, it was still as dangerous as it was now.
“But why are you here? Why did my father agree to let you take care of me?” she asked.
Tong Pei’s face turned red, which was rare.
“I was too anxious that day, so 1 didn’t think that I should hide it from your father. That’s why I’m here.” Guo Fu was a very conservative person who hoped that Guo Miao would only date when she was in university.
“It’s my fault. 1 was too anxious. I’ve already explained it to Uncle. Don’t worry,” Tong Pei said.
“It’s okay. My father will find out sooner or later.”
Just as the two of them were talking, Guo Fu walked in.
Seeing that Guo Miao had woken up, Guo Fu rushed to her bed. “Miao Miao, do you feel uncomfortable now?”
Lu Xi was behind Guo Fu. She had already gone out to call the doctor.
Guo Miao patted her father’s arm. “Dad, I’m fine. I don’t feel uncomfortable. I should be able to leave the hospital.”
Although this poison was very potent and could kill, Guo Miao had specially added some formulas to the poison that she had previously developed so that this medicine had almost no side effects.
“We still have to check it out. It won’t be good if there are any sequelae in the future,” Guo Fu said.
Seeing Tong Pei standing in the room, Guo Fu said, “Tong Pei, Miao Miao just woke up. She might want to eat something. Go buy her something to eat nearby.”
Tong Pei knew that Guo Fu must have something to tell his daughter. He nodded and walked out.
The door was gently closed, and Guo Fu asked, “Miao Miao, are you still in pain?”
Guo Miao shook her head.
“Dad, 1 didn’t mean to hide my relationship with Tong Pei from you. I’m still a high school student, and 1 haven’t agreed to date him yet,” Guo Miao said.
Hearing his daughter’s words, Guo Fu sighed deeply.
What had happened to Guo Miao in the past year had far exceeded his imagination.
“I know that Tong Pei is very worried about you. If you two are dating in the future, 1 won’t object to it. However, there is one thing 1 want to ask you,” Guo Fu expressed.
Although he did not understand Tong Pei, he knew that the Tongs were a famous family in the capital. He did not want his daughter to be involved in the grudges of some wealthy family.
If being together with Tong Pei would put Guo Miao in such danger, then he would rather separate them.
Guo Miao shook her head and subconsciously avoided the topic. “This must have been an accident. 1 don’t know where Fu Xin got those poisons. These scammers are very rampant now.”
Guo Miao subconsciously hid the fact that she was poisoned.
Guo Fu was also present at the scene at the time and had heard the conversation between Guo Miao and Fu Xin about the poison master. He knew that this matter was not that straightforward, but he did not intend to ask further.
“I don’t want anything to happen to you, but I might not have the ability to protect you, so you must protect yourself,” Guo Fu said.
This incident made him realize that Guo Miao was hiding something from him, but he didn’t plan to ask any more questions.
After all, he believed that Guo Miao had a way to protect herself.
The two of them talked for a while more before Guo Miao remembered something very important.. “Dad, your marriage with Aunt Lu Xi…”
