Chapter 308: Marriage
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The business banquet was held in the newly opened Orchid River Hotel in Haicheng.
The Orchid River Hotel had just been set up not long ago. It was located on the side of the Orchid River, close to the city center.
This hotel was one of the few five-star hotels in Haicheng. Standing in the banquet hall of the hotel, one could see the flowing Orchid River and the bustling city center in the distance.
Guo Miao was standing in the living room with a glass of champagne in her hand, sizing up the people around her.
Those who came today were all business celebrities from Haicheng.
Guo Miao was the new face of this place. The moment she appeared, she attracted a lot of attention.
Wendu had prepared a dress for her in advance. It was a long white dress that outlined her slender silhouette. Her hair was tied up simply, and she had removed her glasses. She looked completely different from her usual appearance.
Just as Guo Miao was looking for the person who had invited her to this banquet, someone patted her shoulder from behind.
She turned around and saw a young man in a black suit. It was Tian Yang, who had participated in the Math Olympiad with her before.
“Tian Yang? Why are you here?” Guo Miao asked.
“I came with my dad. Many people from environmental protection companies are here this time,” Tian Yang said.
Tian Yang’s father was the director of the Environmental Protection Bureau. Recently, the research institute cooperated with the Environmental Protection Bureau and was preparing to find some companies to participate.
Guo Miao nodded.
“But why are you here? The Guo Group doesn’t seem to be doing well recently. Many shareholders want to withdraw their investments,” Tian Yang said.
For some reason, when he looked at Guo Miao, his ears seemed to turn red.
Guo Miao didn’t notice Tian Yang’s expression as her mind spun rapidly.
This research institute’s project should be part of the drone project that was used for environmental protection. The companies that needed it had already been selected. Could it be that the investor now wanted her to consider their company or something?
Guo Miao frowned in confusion.
How did this investor know her identity? Wasn’t her identity kept secret at the national research institute?
“Guo Miao? Guo Miao?” Tian Yang waved his hand in front of Guo Miao.
Guo Miao noticed his movements and shook her head with a smile. “I’m sorry, 1 was distracted.”
“I heard from my father that the police investigated the Guo Group. They didn’t say the exact reason, but it seems that the Environmental Protection Bureau has also canceled several of their collaborations,” Tian Yang said.
Guo Miao nodded.
Guo Fu had brought this upon himself. If he had chosen to stay out of her way, he would not have gone to the police to investigate their company.
“So, you haven’t answered my question yet,” Tian Yang asked with a smile. He looked at Guo Miao in admiration. “Are you starting your own company now?” Guo Miao choked.
How did Tian Yang get it right?
The branch of Jinyue Corporation in Haicheng was indeed owned by her, but she didn’t know how to explain this to Tian Yang.
“It’s my friend’s company. He said there was a business dinner, so he brought me here. I don’t have any relationship with the Guo family anymore, and I haven’t been living with them for a long time,” said Guo Miao.
Tian Yang’s eyes widened in shock. He couldn’t believe that Guo Miao had really broken up with her family.
“It’s true. I’m living with my adoptive father now. I won’t go back to the Guo family,” Guo Miao said with a smile.
“I’m sorry, I seem to have brought up something sad for you.” Tian Yang smiled embarrassedly.
“It’s nothing. It’s been a long time.” Guo Miao shrugged.
Tian Yang nodded and sighed softly. He was actually a little disappointed.
Previously, his father had hoped that the two families could get married. He had asked Guo Ming to bring Guo Miao to his house many times, but Guo Fu had rejected him with the excuse that Guo Miao was very busy with her studies.
It seemed that Guo Miao was not busy with her studies, but Guo Ming had lied to them from the beginning.
Tian Yang knew that his father wanted to facilitate this marriage because his family needed it, but he didn’t mention it. He had been looking forward to it.
Just as the two of them were talking, a kind voice rang out.
“Xiao Tian, did you come with your father?”
Following the direction where Tian Yang turned, Guo Miao saw an old man in a Chinese tunic suit. His hair was white and he looked to be in his sixties, about the same age as her grandfather.
“Yes, my father also said that he wanted to meet you this time,” Tian Yang said..
