Chapter 78 - 78 Falling Out

78 Falling Out

On the way back, He Miao handed the dog over to Jing Yan. Onion did not have a dog registration certificate, so he could only take Jing Yan’s private car back.

He Miao took the plane back with Xu Heng and Xu Meng, just like how she had come.

Before she boarded the plane, He Miao came out of the bathroom and ran into the girl she had saved by the lake the other day.

When she saw He Miao come out, she quickly lowered her head and blushed, saying shyly, “There were too many people yesterday, so I couldn’t tell you in person. I’m here to congratulate you on winning the championship and thank you for helping me that day.”

“You’re welcome,” He Miao frowned at her and sighed. “Actually, you didn’t have any backup perfumes for the competition. Why didn’t you tell me?”

He Miao did not even see her appear in the competition yesterday, so she knew that all her work must have been destroyed and she could not participate anymore.

That day at the park, He Miao had already noticed that this girl’s perfume-making skills were extraordinary. If she participated in the competition, she might have been a strong rival.

It was a pity that he did not have the chance to have a good match with her.

The girl looked up and smiled bitterly. “I’ll have the chance to participate in the future anyway. I’m happier to meet you than to be able to get a good ranking.”

Then, she put her hands behind her back, and the regret on her face was replaced by a sweet smile. “He Miao, my name is Chen Shuang. We will definitely meet again in the future. When that time comes, I also want to be your good friend.”

“I definitely will.” He Miao’s eyes curved into a smile.

The boarding announcement ended Chen Shuang’s talk.

She watched reluctantly as He Miao turned around and walked to another girl. The two of them chatted and laughed as they boarded the plane. She suddenly placed her right hand on her chest and clenched it into a fist. She could feel her heart thumping in her chest.

“We will definitely meet again.”

Chen Shuang’s dejected voice disappeared into the crowd. She bit her lower lip and turned around to walk down her own path.

It was noon when the plane landed, and it was a rest day. He Miao said goodbye to Xu Meng and returned to the He family home alone.

As soon as she opened the door, He Feng’s thunderous roar came to her face. “Who allowed you to participate in the competition! If you don’t attend classes properly, you’ll cause trouble for me!”

He Miao frowned and looked over coldly. “I’m an adult and I have the right to decide my own future. It’s my personal freedom to participate in the competition. Why do I need other people’s permission?”

“Alright, I think you’re being unfilial!” He Feng was so angry that he wanted to throw a teacup at He Miao, but He Wei grabbed his arm in time and prevented a disaster.

He Wei’s eyes were red with anxiety. She hugged her father’s hand tightly and advised, “Sister won the competition this time. Dad, don’t blame her.”

“What do you know!” He Feng flung her hand away and glared at He Miao, wishing he could strangle his daughter to death.

Others might not know, but he knew very well that He Miao’s maternal family was in the perfume business. Now that He Miao had returned to her family’s business and had even learned exquisite craftsmanship behind his back, how could he not be shocked?

He could not tell how many more things He Miao was hiding from him. He did not know how much she knew. If she really entered the perfume-making industry in the future, would his wish to seize her inheritance not be completely dashed?

All his years of forbearance and hard work could not be wasted like this!

He had to stop her!

“From tomorrow onward, you’re not allowed to go to university unless you promise me to change your major.” He Feng pointed at He Miao, forcing her to compromise.

He Miao laughed coldly. He Feng had completely disregarded her wishes for his own selfish desires, so there was no need for her to be polite with him.

“I won’t change my major, and I won’t listen to you. I have my own life to live. If you want to disown me now, I can move out and live by myself.”

“Alright, let’s see how long you can survive on your own!” He Feng had never felt so powerless before.

He did not know when it started, but not only did his daughter’s appearance change greatly, even her temperament was not as easy to manipulate as before.

He Wei did not want He Miao to move out. Now that He Miao and Jing Yan had an ambiguous relationship, at least the servants in the He family’s house would report to her about He Miao’s movements in real time.

If she allowed He Miao to live in a place she could not spy on, she would not be able to find out what happens between her and Jing Yan.

“Sister,” He Wei quickly advised, “You and dad should apologize. Father and daughter don’t have to fight like this.”
