It was already late at night, but the lights in the Guo family’s house were still on.
Guo Fu stared at the door. There was warm chicken soup in the electric cooker on the table. He frowned and looked at the door.
Guo Miao had not returned home yet.
He had heard about the incident at school today and wanted to go to the police station, but Guo Miao had stopped him.
The sound of keys jangled at the door. Guo Fu quickly stood up and walked to the door to welcome Guo Miao in.
“I’ve made your favorite chicken soup for you. Have some first. Tell me what’s going on.” Guo Fu brought the chicken soup to the dining table.
Guo Miao sat down at the dining table.
Guo Fu stood at the side and rubbed his hands, not knowing what to do. “You should have let me go over. Maybe 1 can help you think of a good solution. Forget it. I know I’m useless.”
Guo Fu laughed at himself. During this period of time, Guo Miao handled many things on her own and even helped him start a new career.
Although his adopted daughter was only in her teens, she was much more powerful than him despite him having lived for more than 40 years.
Guo Miao’s eyes turned red. The steam from the chicken soup almost made her cry.
During this period of time, she had been trying her best to support herself and not collapse before she completed what she wanted to do, but now she felt a little exhausted.
Perhaps Chen Yin’s appearance had awakened those unbearable memories that had been dormant.
“Don’t cry, Miao Miao. If you have anything to say, tell me. If you really need help, I’m here for you,” Guo Fu said.
Guo Fu’s eyes turned red when he saw Guo Miao crying.
During this period of time, she was more sensible and capable than he had imagined. Her results were also excellent, and she was as strong as an iron man.
How afraid was he to witness such a proud person almost being destroyed now?
Guo Miao shook her head and wiped the tears from her face. She choked and said, “I’m sorry, Dad. I made you worry.”
She raised her head to look at her father, and her tears fell again as if they simply could not be wiped clean.
“It’s okay. If there’s anything, just tell me. I will work hard…” Guo Fu held back his tears and patted Guo Miao’s head. “I’m already working hard to give you and Xuxu a better life.”
Guo Miao lowered her head and began to sip the chicken soup.
“It’s delicious, Dad,” Guo Miao said.
Guo Fu nodded in relief. Then, as if he had thought of something, he said carefully, “Miao Miao, do you want to rest for a while?”
Guo Miao looked up at Guo Fu in surprise.
“Don’t be angry,” Guo Fu said slowly, “I know that the competition is very important to you, but you’re not in a good state right now. I hope that you can rest well. Let’s not go to the competition and stay at home. I will also take a leave of absence to make you something delicious.”
Guo Fu knew how important the competition was and what it meant to Guo Miao. However, he hoped that she would not be injured.
Guo Miao looked at her father and thought of Cheng Yu, whom she had just met at the police station.
Cheng Yu didn’t care if she was injured or needed rest. Even though she knew that she had almost been raped during the day, she still wanted to take her home. She had only thought that she had found out the truth and hoped that she could return to the family that had once given her endless malice.
While thinking of this, Guo Miao’s tears flowed down again.
Shaking her head, she said, “Dad, thank you for your concern, but I can do it. I will definitely participate in the competition. They threatened me this time because they hope that I won’t participate in the competition, but 1 won’t let them have their way.”
Actually, she could guess that the reason why Guo Lin wanted to harm her at this time was that she wanted her to give up the competition because of public opinion.
To her, this competition was even simpler than one plus one equals two. This small matter would not affect her at all.
She had to finish this competition as soon as possible and continue with more important things.
“Alright.” Looking at his strong daughter, Guo Fu nodded. “As expected of my daughter. 1 support you.”
Under the light, Guo Fu’s hair appeared a little white. However, compared to his previous life, at least, he was by Guo Miao’s side now.
She needed to speed up the process. When the competition was over, she would take the college entrance examination this year and enter university. She would bring her whole family to the capital and give them a better life.
The father and daughter chatted about other things before returning to their bedroom to rest.
After a few days of recuperation, Guo Miao had almost recovered. She was ready to go to Country B with the eight-person team on time.
Almost all the students of Class 10 came to see her off.
Chen Si held onto Guo Miao’s hand and was a little worried. “Are you really not going to rest for a while? Miao Miao, although the matter from last time has been settled, I’m still a little concerned..”
