The perfect smile on Huo You’s face instantly turned cold and her expression turned grim.
The surrounding students were affected by the solemn atmosphere and did not dare to speak for a moment. They exchanged glances with each other, making the already cold atmosphere even stranger.
Huo You had improved a little. Although she was extremely frustrated, she still smiled. “Actually, I have another important matter to announce on my birthday. Our Huo Family is a family with a strong background. We won’t make a huge fuss and announce it to the world for just a 19th birthday like those families who have never seen the world. That day is actually my engagement day. On such an important day, I really hope that my friend can be by my side…”
It wasn’t just Xu Mei and Liu Qian, who were invited, who felt surprised. The others also looked surprised.
A lively student asked straightforwardly, “You’re only in high school. Why are you getting engaged so early?”
Huo You was angry, but she didn’t dare to show her dissatisfaction with the engagement. She lowered her gaze and pretended to be shy. “I think it’s too early too. It’s just that my boyfriend was too anxious, so he discussed with my parents to get engaged as soon as possible. Anyway, it’s just an engagement. We’ll have to wait until I finish my university studies before we get married, so I agreed.”
“Wow, it seems like your boyfriend loves you a lot, Huo You…”
Many students started discussing excitedly. They were at the age where they yearned for love. Compared to an ordinary birthday banquet, they were naturally more interested in the engagement banquet. However, Huo You only invited Xu Mei and Liu Qian. No matter how curious the students were, they didn’t ask impolitely if they could attend.
However, their curiosity towards the engagement banquet made them involuntarily cast their gazes on Xu Mei and Liu Qian, who had been invited.
Xu Mei frowned, looking very conflicted. Clearly, she was in a dilemma.
While she was hesitating, Liu Qian, who had been maintaining her silence, said, “Huo You, I’m sorry, but we’ve already agreed to attend Huo Tian’s birthday banquet. We can’t go back on our words, so we can’t attend your birthday banquet and engagement banquet. However, we’ll send you a gift, giving you our wishes for you to be with your beloved boyfriend forever.”
When Huo You got close to the two of them, she knew that Liu Qian, who came from a political family, was very thoughtful and hard to curry up to. Compared to the naive Xu Mei, Huo You felt that Liu Qian had never really treated her as a friend.
She looked lonely and looked a little pitiful, then looked at Liu Qian resentfully. “But we’re friends. The engagement banquet is such an important day. I want to spend it with you guys.”
With that, she stopped paying attention to Xu Mei and Liu Qian’s reactions and turned to look at Huo Tian. She said sincerely, “Huo Tian, I know you don’t like me. You’ve already snatched so many things from me. Are you going to snatch my friends too?”
Huo Tian felt perplexed. She looked up, her face filled with confusion. “It’s true that I don’t like you, but I didn’t snatch your friends. They’re people with their own thoughts and can freely choose whose banquet they want to attend. You don’t have to tell me these things.”
Liu Qian’s expression wasn’t too good either. She frowned and said to Huo You, “Huo Tian is right. Whether we want to go to your banquet is our choice. Moreover, Huo Tian didn’t ‘snatch your friends’. I hope you won’t mislead people with your words again, letting them think that you’ve been targeted and bullied by Huo Tian.”
Huo You didn’t expect Liu Qian to say her thoughts so bluntly. Her face was alternating between red and white, looking very grim.. The gazes of the students from Class One were ambiguous, and when they landed on Huo You, she felt a chill run down her spine.
