The Real Rich Daughter is a Future Genius Scientist

60 Christmas Eve

The three of them had a great time eating.

The talkative Sheng Guang told Tong Pei about Qiao Yue’s banquet.

Tong Pei had never seen this kind of family before. As he listened, he frowned and looked at Guo Miao with a pained expression.

“But it’s all settled now. Guo Miao is living in my family’s property, and the three of them are still living well,” Sheng Guang said proudly. After all, he had also contributed to Guo Miao’s new home.

“Did the Guos make things difficult for you?” Tong Pei didn’t pay attention to Sheng Guang’s happiness and asked Guo Miao instead.

Guo Miao shook her head.

The Guos didn’t make things difficult for her. She only hoped that the two families would mind their own business. She would live her own life, and the Guos would live their own lives.

After they finished eating, Tong Pei sent Sheng Guang back first.

The hotel that Guo Miao was staying at this time was still under the Jinyue Group, but because the original hotel was currently closed for renovation, she stayed in a hotel a little further away.

Because it was a long way, Tong Pei didn’t let the driver drive but drove back to the hotel with Guo Miao instead.

After a long day of travel, Guo Miao was actually a little tired. She leaned against the passenger seat and fell asleep.

Looking at the sleeping Guo Miao, Tong Pei felt something soft start to blossom in his heart.

He reached out and touched her hair. Her soft hair and small face were buried in the scarf. She looked like a tired little beast, sleeping soundly in the safe zone she had designated for a long time.

They were still a few kilometers away from Guo Miao’s hotel, so Tong Pei slowed down. The lights outside shone on her face while she was in a deep sleep, resting undisturbed.

When Guo Miao woke up, the car had already reached the overpass.

As it was Christmas Eve, the entire capital was lit up with Christmas lights. From a distance, she could see that every shopping mall had a Christmas tree at the entrance.

Guo Miao felt that this moment was especially unreal. She felt like a little matchgirl lighting up all the matches in the matchbox and witnessing a beautiful illusion that she had never seen before.

She turned her head to look at Tong Pei, who was driving, and hurriedly said, “I’m sorry. I was too tired, so I fell asleep.”

“Don’t worry. There’s still some distance,” Tong Pei said with a smile, “This section of the overpass is one of the best places in Beijing. You can take a look now.”

With the starry sky and the lights in the distance intertwined, the halo of the illumination lit up the entire night sky. It was indeed beautiful.

“Happy Christmas Eve,” Tong Pei said, “Look at the back seat.”

Guo Miao turned around and saw an exquisite gift box in the back seat.

She reached out and took the gift box. There was an apple-shaped cake in the box. Guo Miao used a spoon to scoop a spoonful of the cake which burst with chocolate flavor.

On the outside was a chocolate crispy crust, and on the inside was a chocolate cake with cherry compote. The cake was moist and soft, and there was the sweet and tart taste of cherry.

“A cake shop in the capital released this today. They only sell this once a year,” Tong Pei explained.

He had just bought this cake when he passed by. It had been very popular recently because it was only sold once a year on Christmas Eve, so there would be a long queue every time.

It was still early when he went there today, so there was just enough time for him to buy the cake.

Although he didn’t have to do this, he really wanted to buy something for the girl who was sleeping in the passenger seat.

“Thank you,” she said while eating. The cake was sweet, and it made her temporarily forget a lot of annoying things and concentrate on eating.

“You’ve worked hard during this period of time.” Tong Pei stopped the car at the entrance of the hotel.

Guo Miao hadn’t finished the cake yet, and he was quietly waiting for her to finish.

It was strange. Although she was only a high school student, he could feel an unprecedented calmness from her.

This kind of calmness attracted Tong Pei to get closer to her and be with her, but he couldn’t tell what this kind of serenity was.

“Thank you,” she said. Guo Miao finished the cake and looked at Tong Pei with sparkling eyes. “Happy Christmas Eve.”

“Happy Christmas Eve.” Tong Pei nodded.

The two of them chatted for a while more before Guo Miao got out of the car. She watched as Tong Pei left while she stood there without moving.
