At this moment, the Tong family’s old residence in Beijing was brightly lit.
“Fifth Brother, how can you offend the Sus so casually? I know you’re in business and you’re not afraid, but your brother is in the Beijing military district. My superior is from the Sus.”
The person who spoke was Tong Yan, Tong Ling’s father. He was also the highest-ranking official in the third division. He was currently a lieutenant colonel in the capital military.
Su Ning’s father was a colonel and happened to be his leader. According to seniority, he was Tong Pei’s third uncle.
“Su Ning was the one who framed her first. Third Uncle, aren’t you a little too biased towards Su Ning? Are you going to let Guo Miao be framed?” Tong Pei had yet to speak when Tong Yao spoke first.
He had always looked down on his third uncle.
Most of Tong Pei’s father and the other members of the military were not in the capital’s military region now. Tong Yan always pointed fingers at the Tong family because he was often in the capital.
Su Ning’s father, Su Qiang, was his immediate superior. He usually liked to curry favor with this leader.
At that time, he also wanted to facilitate Su Ning and Tong Pei’s marriage to pave the way for his career.
When Tong Yan returned from the army today and heard that they had angered Su Ning away, he was even more enraged.
“Tong Yao, you too. You can’t always speak up for that country bumpkin just because you’re classmates with her. Who knows if she really stole that bracelet? Besides, this is a matter between us adults. You shouldn’t interrupt, child.”
Tong Yao snorted and turned his face away.
“Also, Tong Pei, you can’t just invite everyone to Grandma’s birthday banquet. This little girl from the countryside must be trying to suck up to a family like ours,” Tong Yan looked at Tong Pci who didn’t speak and added.
He didn’t notice that Tong Pei’s face was getting darker and darker.
“Since when did our family judge success or failure based on one’s background?” Tong Pei asked coldly.
Tong Yan was obviously stunned for a moment. “Aren’t I doing this for your own good? How do you know that this little girl from the countryside didn’t deliberately get close to her for the sake of entering the Beijing household register? Who knows what this kind of person is thinking?”
“Goddess Miao doesn’t care about that.” Tong Yao sneered.
Guo Miao was someone who could even give up guaranteed entry to schools like Beijing University and Huaqing University. She could register under Beijing University’s household if she wanted to. Why would she care about such things?
Just as everyone was arguing, the old lady walked in from the door. “Alright, stop arguing. This is Su Ning’s fault.”
She leaned on her walking stick and looked at her third son. “Are you as old as me now and confused? I didn’t make a fuss today because of that child and her parents. Why are you blaming Tong Pei now?”
Tong Pei and Tong Yan never got along.
This time, Tong Yan finally found an excuse with great difficulty. Naturally, he wanted to make use of this topic to make a fuss.
“Mom, I’m doing this for Fifth Brother’s own good. If he marries the daughter of the commander of the army, won’t it benefit me?”
Old Madam Tong spat fiercely. “Since when did our family rely on our superior’s promotion?”
The few members of the Tong family who joined the army relied on their military merits to have quite a reputation in the army. Only Tong Yan was the most useless.
Although Tong Yan was provoked by Old Madam Tong, he did not say a word.
“Tong Pei, I’ve prepared a gift for Guo Miao. I have to give face to the Su parents today.” Old Madam Tong sighed slightly.
She could tell that Tong Pei liked Guo Miao, but she couldn’t speak up for Guo Miao today.
Tong Pei nodded slightly. The corners of his mouth were slightly pursed. No one knew what he was thinking about.
At this moment, Tong Yan’s phone rang.
As he listened, his eyes suddenly widened.
“What’s the name of the researcher you mentioned?” Tong Yan simply could not believe his ears.
Chen Yan repeated, “She’s a researcher from Haicheng. Her name is Guo Miao. She’s not old enough yet, so maybe …”
“The researcher you mentioned is called Guo Miao?” Tong Yan almost screamed.
“Yes, do you know her?” Chen Yan did not know why Tong Yan was so excited.
The few people sitting in the living room also looked at each other.
Watching Tong Yan hang up the phone, Tong Yao asked, “What’s wrong, Third Uncle? What does it have to do with Goddess Miao?”
