Chapter 117 - 117 Back to Haicheng


117 Back to Haicheng

Just as they were talking about what happened today, Guo Miao’s phone rang.

The caller ID showed that it was Lu Ning. It was already 10 o’clock in the evening. According to country C’s time, it should be 11 o’clock in the evening. Why was Lu Ning calling at such a late hour? Could something have happened?

...

Guo Miao picked up the phone.

“Hello, is this Guo Miao? Are you free to speak now?”

Guo Miao was a little confused and nodded.

“Uncle doesn’t really know how to make international calls. He asked me to tell you that your grandmother has passed away. He might have to go back to the village to attend the funeral in the next few days.”

Grandma?

Guo Miao’s phone fell to the ground with a loud thud. Tong Pei, Encai, and Enya all looked at her.

The word ‘grandma’ was already a distant memory.

In her previous life, Guo Miao’s mother died very early. Her grandparents only had two children. Her uncle’s whole family moved to other cities, and only Guo Miao’s family and her grandparents lived in Dongshan.

Although Guo Miao’s mother had passed away a long time ago, Guo Fu had never remarried. He raised the two children by himself and would usually go to his grandparents’ house to take care of the two elders.

The two old folks also doted on Guo Miao and Guo Min.

Living in the harsh Dongshan Village, they would always save up what little money they had to buy snacks for their children. Because of her grandparents’ love, Guo Miao’s childhood was very joyful.

Later, Guo Miao was brought to the Guo family in Haicheng. Guo Fu died of illness because of Guo Miao’s incident. His grandparents also fell seriously ill and passed away quickly without anyone to take care of them.

In this life, she had been busy with her own things and had not visited her grandparents. She thought that she would have many opportunities to lead a good life with the two elders, but they passed away just like that.

Guo Miao’s eyes suddenly ached, and tears flowed out of her eyes and wet her cheeks.

Tong Pei took out a tissue from the tissue box and handed it to Guo Miao, asking softly, “What happened?”

Guo Miao was a little dazed as if she couldn’t react. She said softly, “I’m sorry. My grandma has passed away.”

She reached out and wiped her tears with a tissue. “I might have to go back to China soon. I’m really sorry.”

Guo Miao glanced at Encai. “I’m really sorry, but I can only do what I promised you later.”

“It’s okay. Family matters are more important. Hurry and see if there’s any flight that can be booked,” Encai said hurriedly.

Guo Miao turned on her phone and Tong Pei reached out to hold her hand. “Go pack your luggage. I’ll help you settle the plane tickets. The only flight from country K to country C is to the capital. If you want to go to Haicheng, you’ll have to take a private jet.”

A private jet? Encai was shocked.

The Tong family had a private jet and private airport, which only served the Tong family’s children. Previously, he wanted to ride in Tong Pei’s private jet but couldn’t. This time, Guo Miao’s matter set a precedent.

The relationship between Tong Pei and Guo Miao wasn’t simple.

Guo Miao didn’t react in time and just went back to her room to pack her luggage mechanically. She didn’t bring many things, so she quickly packed up.

When they went downstairs, Tong Pei had already driven the car over. He reached out to take Guo Miao’s luggage and put it in the car, letting her get in.

Country K was very quiet at night, and Tong Pei drove the car steadily.

Guo Miao, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, pouted as if she was trying to hold back her tears. For some reason, seeing the girl’s strong appearance made Tong Pei’s heart ache.

“If you want to cry, then cry. The tissues are there,” Tong Pei said.

Guo Miao nodded robotically, tears falling from her cheeks. She picked up a tissue and wiped them away.

She buried her face in her palms, and her tears quickly soaked her palms, falling through the gaps between her fingers. She started to cry silently.

The car drove very fast, and they arrived at the airport in less than half an hour.

“I’ll go back to Haicheng with you. Don’t worry,” Tong Pei said.

Guo Miao looked at him. This man always inexplicably made people feel at ease.

From handling the procedures to boarding the plane, Tong Pei followed her closely. He even helped her with the procedures and personally walked her to the plane.
