The Real Rich Daughter is a Future Genius Scientist-Chapter 17: Family Dinner
Chapter 17: Family Dinner
Guo Miao turned around and saw a kind face.
It was the old lady she had saved before.
Song Zhen looked at the young lady in front of her, her eyes filled with gratitude. "I didn't expect to meet you here. Since we've bumped into each other, let's have a meal together. Our family is having a family dinner at Ningxiang Restaurant today, and we invite you to be our distinguished guest."
Guo Miao was a little embarrassed and waved her hand to refuse.
After all, it was a family dinner, so it wasn't appropriate for her to go.
However, Song Zhen grabbed Guo Miao's hand and said, "I have the final say in our family. You saved me, so you're our distinguished guest."
Guo Miao couldn't refuse the old woman's good intentions, so she followed her to Ningxiang Restaurant.
In her previous life, she had only been to this restaurant once.
It was a famous restaurant in Haicheng. The food was excellent, and the average price was about 10,000 dollars. More importantly, it was close to the mountains and the sea, so the scenery was amazing. Only the rich and high-ranking officials could book a room here.
In the past, the Guo family had often held banquets here to entertain guests, but because they despised Guo Miao, they had only brought her here once.
When they arrived at the best private room in Ningxiang Restaurant, a middle-aged couple was already waiting there.
"Mom, you went out for a walk again. Who is this?" Zhong Heng asked curiously when he saw his mother bringing a little girl over.
"It's the girl who saved me last time."
"Thank you, thank you. Welcome to our family's banquet." Upon hearing that it was the girl from the last time, Zhong Heng quickly walked over and shook hands with her. With a gentle demeanor, he was an elder that people respected.
"Mayor Zhong, I've heard a lot about you." Guo Miao politely shook his hand.
Guo Miao remembered that Mayor Zhong had done a lot for Haicheng back then and had even supported Dongshan's rural economy. However, he was later framed by a villain and imprisoned for corruption.
He also had a brother who worked in the Jingdu military department. That year, his brother was also dismissed due to his influence. Decades of military achievements fizzled out, and he finally died of depression.
Looking at the respected mayor in front of her, Guo Miao felt a little regretful. Sometimes, the world was like this. A truly good person would be unable to recover after being framed, while those who colluded with others would get away with it.
"Uncle, I'm here. My dad has some military matters to attend to. He said that he'll be taking a flight back and will only be back next month." Zhong Nian suddenly pushed the door open and entered the room. He was extremely surprised when he saw the person in the room.
"Eh? Miao Miao?"
"Zhong Nian?" Guo Miao was also very curious to see him here.
"Sister Miao Miao, what are you doing here?" Zhong Nian asked in excitement.
"She's my savior, so I invited her to have a meal with me," Song Zhen explained without waiting for Guo Miao to speak.
Then, she pointed at Zhong Nian and introduced him to Guo Miao, "This is my grandson, Zhong Nian, my eldest son's son. My eldest son was supposed to come today, but it seems like he won't be able to."
Zhong Nian laughed. "It's fate, Miaomiao! Miaomiao is my classmate, and she saved me and Tong Yao last time," Zhong Nian explained.
The people present were also shocked. The savior, who had saved Zhong Nian and Tong Yao, was actually Guo Miao.
This girl was really their family's benefactor.
While they were talking, the waiter served the dishes, and everyone finished their meal happily.
After the meal, Song Zhen kept holding Guo Miao's hand and asked her to come to the Zhongs' house more often. She also told her son to personally send Guo Miao home.
Guo Miao also felt that this old lady was kind, so she nodded, then followed Zhong Heng into the car.
On the way home, Guo Miao looked at Zhong Heng and suddenly had an idea.
Zhong Heng was kind, loyal, and diligent in government affairs. His brother also placed the protection of the country before the interests of the family. She did not want to see the Zhong family end up in the same tragic state as in her previous life.
"Mayor Zhong, I've heard that you've done a lot for Haicheng. You're a very good mayor."
Zhong Heng laughed. He thought that this girl was just trying to flatter him like everyone else, but Guo Miao's next sentence shocked him.
"But you can't trust everyone around you too much. If you put your heart into politics, there will always be people who take advantage of the loopholes to obtain some other benefits." be𝚍no𝚟𝚎l.𝚌𝚘m
Zhong Heng frowned.
He had been busy improving the living environment of the people in Haicheng and improving the local economy all year round, so he was indeed a little unguarded about the people around him.
"Why don't you start explaining?"
However, Guo Miao shook her head. "Uncle, I believe you understand what I mean."
