“You still remember me?” Yu Miao was excited. Her face flushed red as she tried to suppress her excitement. “Am I disturbing you?”

“Of course not,” Lisa looked at Yu Miao kindly. She smiled as she brought Yu Miao to sit down at the side. “I happen to be a little tired. Can we sit down and chat for a while?”

Lisa remembered that when the news reported that Starry Foundation that she had founded was failing, Yu Miao had emptied all his assets and transferred several hundred thousand to her.

Yu Miao nodded vigorously and was led by Lisa to a seat not far away. She felt as if her soul was floating in the air. Indeed, it was right to listen to her parents and come over to greet Lisa! If she had not mustered up her courage to come over, she wouldn’t have had the chance to hold hands with Mrs. Jeon.

Yu Mi screamed silently. She sat down and calmed down after a long while. She carefully handed over the juice in her hand to Shen Hanxing as she said, “Mrs. Jeon, I would like to, I would like to propose a toast to you. Thank you for helping me make a fortune.”

Yu Miao looked sincere. She raised her glass and said, “I know you have drunk plenty of wine. I, I want to propose a toast to you to express my gratitude. You can drink the juice.” She was a little incoherent. At that time, she did not know what she was thinking. When she saw the news reports that Lisa’s foundation could not attract investors, she impulsively transferred all the pocket money she had saved.

Yu Miao was neither the heir nor the only daughter in the family. She was not favored and often ignored. The money did not seem to be much, but she had saved it little by little since she was a kid. After giving the money to Lisa, Yu Miao had already planned to make a loss. She only wanted to support Lisa, but she did not expect her money to double in Lisa’s hands.

Now, Yu Miao finally did not have to be afraid anymore. She was always worried that her family was unwilling to care about how she lived. She could support herself or plan for her future.

Even if Yu Miao was not smart, she knew that she had taken advantage by letting Lisa accept the money and giving her a share. So, she was embarrassed at this moment. She drank the red wine in her glass in one gulp. She drank too fast, and her eyes were teary, “Mrs. Jeon, I… I thank you very much… You didn’t blame me for causing you trouble, and you even took care of me like this…” Even her family was not as good to her as Lisa was.

As Yu Miao spoke, she was about to cry.

“Don’t say that. You were the one who helped me first. Shouldn’t there be a return on investment?” Lisa felt a little helpless. Why were these socialites so fond of crying? It was not easy for her to coax the younger sisters of the Jeon family. Now, the children of other families came to her and were about to cry.

Lisa felt helpless. She picked up the fruit juice and drank it in one gulp. “Look, I’ve drunk it all. I’ll accept your thanks. Don’t cry anymore.” The fruit juice was Yu Miao’s consideration and gentleness. She had no reason to reject it.

Seeing Lisa drinking it, Yu Miao smiled. After chatting for a while, Yu Miao’s phone rang. She subconsciously glanced at it and then pouted. “Mrs. Jeon, my mother is calling me. I’ll have to excuse myself.”

Lisa massaged her temples. Perhaps she had drunk too much tonight, and her head was dizzy. Hearing Yu Miao’s words, she nodded. “Okay, you go ahead.”

Seeing that Lisa seemed uncomfortable, Yu Miao turned around and left. She was still worried and called a waiter to bring Lisa hot water before leaving.

Lisa supported her forehead with one hand. Her vision was upside down, and the whole world was shaking. “Strange. Did I drink that much?” She muttered as she rubbed her forehead. “I used to have such a poor tolerance for alcohol. Could it be that I haven’t touched alcohol for too long?”

“Mrs. Jeon, are you okay?” A waiter leaned over and asked carefully, “Do you need a glass of water?”

Lisa lifted her head when she heard the voice. She tried her best to open her eyes, but she couldn’t see the waiter’s face. The gorgeous lights on the ceiling spun rapidly in her world. She could only see the lights.

“No, don’t turn…” Lisa frowned in discomfort and muttered, “I’m throwing up if you turn again…”

“Mrs. Jeon?” The waiter’s gaze on her was strange. He tentatively pushed Lisa’s shoulder and lowered his voice. “Are you okay? Do you want me to take you upstairs for a rest?”

“Rest?” Lisa opened her watery eyes in a daze. Then, she tilted her head and pondered a long time. The processing system in her brain seemed to have stopped. In a short while, her gaze was empty, and no one knew what she was thinking.
