69 Back to Haicheng

Guo Miao brought the group to eat some grilled meat.

The streaky pork sizzled on the pan, and everyone sat around Guo Miao, listening to her talk about the science and technology competition.

Although the children of Class 10 weren’t good at their studies, they were particularly loyal and didn’t scheme against each other. Everyone really admired Guo Miao.

Guo Miao briefly explained the competition to them and told them about the inventions that the high school students might be interested in.

“Guo Miao, how did you learn so much in secret?” Chen Si asked with a face full of admiration.

Guo Miao thought for a while. “I got some netizens to participate in the competition with me. They’re students of Beijing University, so the competition went so smoothly.”

Everyone’s faces were filled with admiration.

After everyone finished their food, they went to the nearby arcade together.

Guo Miao hadn’t been to the arcade for a long time. Looking at the colorful toys inside, she was a little eager to try her hand out at the game.

As a group of people gathered around the counter to exchange coins, Guo Miao saw an old acquaintance. It was Lu Ning.

She was wearing the arcade staff uniform. She had no makeup on but looked much better and was also smiling a lot more.

Guo Miao bought 1,000 game coins and gave them to everyone to play.

“How have you been?” she asked.

“Very good,” Lu Ning said with a smile. With that sum of money, her life had become much better. Her father and stepmother had fallen out, and her stepbrother had not made things difficult for her.

Although she still had to work part-time to support her family, her life was much better.

Seeing the smile on her good friend’s face, Guo Miao felt much more comfortable.

After everyone had fun the whole night, Guo Miao returned home.

After not seeing her family for a few days, the house was still tidy and everything was placed in the right place. The plants on the balcony window were also thriving and exuding the fragrance of greenery.

Xuxu had already fallen asleep, and Guo Fu was sitting at the dining table. He was reading something under the table lamp.

Guo Miao walked over and found Guo Fu studying a recipe.

“Dad, what are you looking at?” Guo Miao asked.

Guo Fu wasn’t someone who liked to cook. Back in Dongshan Village, he was both Guo Miao and Xuxu’s father and mother. He didn’t even have much time to cook, let alone study recipes.

“I’m now an employee at the school, but I heard that I can make more money by providing food to the school. So, I got a few fellow townsmen to partner up and see if they want to become a supplier for the cafeteria.”

Nowadays, many school canteens would use the meals provided by suppliers to avoid food safety problems caused by students eating out at noon.

Guo Miao nodded. This was a good way to get rich.

Although she had thought of teaching Guo Fu how to invest in stocks or funds, these were riskier. Guo Miao now had more fixed-term and real estate assets, but she didn’t want her father to be involved in risk.

She took out a card with the prize money from the competition. It was more than enough to start a supplier company.

“Dad, I’ll give you this money. You can open a shop with it.”

Guo Fu looked at the card that Guo Miao handed over and rubbed his hands. “Dad still has some savings here. Save this money and use it for college in the future.”

Looking at Guo Fu’s worried expression, Guo Miao’s heart softened. Her father had always been the one who cared about her the most since her last life, and that had never changed.

“It’s okay, Dad. We have enough money. You don’t have to worry,” Guo Miao said as she placed the card on the table.

Guo Fu looked at Guo Miao and nodded. “I will work hard to give you and your brother a better life.”

Guo Miao nodded. She would always be a child in Guo Fu’s eyes.

Soon, Guo Miao’s life was back on track, and she went to and from school on time every day.

One day, when she was about to leave school, a car stopped in front of her.

The first two characters on the license plate were “BJA”. It was a car from the capital.

Guo Miao stood at the door of the car, wanting to see who had come from the capital to find her.

The window rolled down and she saw Wendu’s face. “Hey, it’s me.”

With a cigarette in his mouth, he looked at Guo Miao in a carefree manner. “Long time no see, Guo Miao.”

“Long time no see, brother Wendu. Are you here to pick up Tong Tong and Zhong Nian?”

Wendu shook his head and snuffed out his cigarette. “I’m here to discuss business with you. Get into the car.”
