Guo Miao was about to open the car door when Tong Pei suddenly stopped her.

The moment they made contact, Guo Miao felt as if her body had been electrocuted.

After hesitating for a long time, Tong Pei asked, “I’d like to know, what is the status of our relationship now?”

After asking this question, Tong Pei felt his face turn red. He didn’t know why, but no matter what he usually did, he didn’t feel this nervous.

Only when he faced Guo Miao did he feel nervous and uneasy.

“I’m still a high school student. I’ll have to wait until 1 go to university,” Guo Miao said with a smile. “The school rules of Haicheng High School forbid me from dating at such a young age. My father also doesn’t allow me to date now.”

Tong Pei was a little disappointed, but it was only a year away from Guo Miao going to university.

Moreover, Guo Miao was 17 years old now. He didn’t want to give her so much pressure.

He nodded at Guo Miao. “I can wait for you.”

Guo Miao felt as if her heart had been moved by something. She felt it beating even faster. It was the first time she had heard such words in so many years.

Tong Pei said he could wait for her.

He would wait for her.

Guo Miao looked at Tong Pei and nodded slowly.

There was no need to repeat their feelings. They just had to wait for the test of time to end and the day when it all finally bore fruit.

At this time, the restaurant was already closed. Guo Fu was cleaning up in the restaurant, and Lu Xi was sitting on a chair at the door, doing accounts on the computer.

For the past two days, Champion’s Restaurant had been the most popular restaurant in Haicheng. Its daily turnover was around 100,000 yuan. Everyone in the restaurant was really busy.

“Xiaoxi, remember to tell me if you’re too tired. I’ll find a few more people.”

“I can do it. Fu, don’t work too hard either.” Lu Xi smiled gently at Guo Fu.

“I’m not tired. It’s all for the sake of our shop,” Guo Fu said.

The two of them chatted casually, and the atmosphere in the entire restaurant was a little strange.

Guo Miao didn’t know if it was because she had just confirmed her feelings with Tong Pei, but she felt that the current atmosphere was a little odd. The relationship between her father and Lu Xi seemed to be a little ambiguous.

Although Guo Fu was packing up the things in the shop, he would stare at Lu Xi every few steps and talk to her from time to time.

Guo Miao gently knocked on the glass. Lu Xi stood up abruptly, her cheeks flushed.

“Miao Miao, you’re back!” she said to Guo Miao.

Lu Xi liked Guo Fu. This man was honest and kind to his family. He was much better than her unreliable ex-husband. However, she was a little worried about her two children’s attitude towards her.

Guo Miao’s mother passed away due to difficult labor. Although many years had passed, a mother was irreplaceable to a child.

“Yes.” Guo Miao smiled at Lu Xi.

Lu Xi was the same as Lu Hai. They were both honest people. Although they had been working outside for so many years, they were still down-to-earth.

If such a person married her father, Guo Miao would be more than willing to accept her.

It wasn’t easy for Guo Fu to raise her and Guo Xu. Now that she was going to university and Xuxu was going to high school, it was time for her to start her own life.

“You worked hard today. Your Aunt Lu Xi and 1 watched your performance on TV. It was impressive,” Guo Fu said with a smile.

Guo Miao nodded and pulled her father aside.

“Dad, do you have any good news for me?”

Guo Fu knew what Guo Miao wanted to say. He sighed. “Miao miao, I know you can tell, but…”

“Dad, you’ve worked hard taking care of me and Xuxu for so many years. It’s time for you to pursue your own happiness,” Guo Miao looked at her father and said with a smile.

“No, Miao Miao, listen to me…” Guo Fu had prepared a lot of rebuttals. When he heard Guo Miao’s words, he was suddenly stunned. “You don’t object to it?”

He was a little surprised. It was said that children were usually more resistant to their parents remarrying, but Guo Miao didn’t actually mind at all?

“Dad, it wasn’t easy for you to raise us, and if being with Aunt Lu Xi will make you happier, why not?” Guo Miao said.

“My daughter, you are so sensible,” Guo Fu said..
