Huo You walked in under everyone’s gazes. She glanced around the classroom and realized that the two girls she was looking for were gathered around Huo Tian, discussing something excitedly, their cheeks flushed red from excitement.
Amongst the students in Class One who were generally from slightly above average family backgrounds, Xu Mei and Liu Qian’s family backgrounds were especially eye-catching. One of them was the young miss of a national hotel chain. Although the other family wasn’t as rich as the former, many people in the family were in politics and had great influence.
However, these two girls had always kept a low profile. A few days ago, when they were busy revising for the examinations, they were also sloven just like the other students. Many students in the class did not know their real family backgrounds.
If Huo You hadn’t been reborn, she probably wouldn’t have known that these two ordinary girls had a family background that could rival the Huo Family.
After her rebirth, Huo You came to Qingli High School for the second time. She no longer befriended her friends from mediocre families from her previous life. Instead, she deliberately befriended her classmates who came from high society.
Xu Mei and Liu Qian were the friends Huo You had picked. In the past, under her deliberate efforts to make friends, they had indeed become good friends with Huo You.
However, after Huo You transferred classes, her relationship with them gradually became distant. On the one hand, it was because Huo Tian was also in Class One. She had never gained the upper hand in her confrontations with Huo Tian and she gradually became unwilling to take the initiative to appear in front of Huo Tian.
On the other hand, it was because the students in Class One had always prioritized their studies, especially after Huo Tian, who was a study god, came. Their learning mood rose very high, so Xu Mei and Liu Qian stopped hanging out with Huo You, who was from a different class.
Of course, Huo You sensed that they were slowly growing distant, but she didn’t take this matter to heart. The class Huo You was in now was the group with the best family background in the entire school. The interpersonal relationships she had access to were much more important than Xu Mei and Liu Qian.
However, Huo You didn’t expect that after just a short period of relaxation, these two friends, whom she had tackled, would go to Huo Tian’s side. Didn’t they know that Huo Tian was her arch-enemy?
A feeling of betrayal welled up in her heart, but it was impossible for her to get into a conflict with the young misses from a chain hotel and a political family. Hence, she hid the discomfort in her heart and said to Xu Mei and Liu Qian with a smile, “Xu Mei, Liu Qian, everyone had been busy with exams recently, so I didn’t come to look for you guys to play. It’s summer vacation starting tomorrow. We must have fun.”
Xu Mei smiled and nodded. “Sure. The three of us haven’t gone shopping together for a long time. Let’s find time to watch a movie together?”
Realizing that Xu Mei’s attitude was about the same as before, Huo You felt a little relieved. Her smile became even more sincere. “There’s one more thing. My family is holding a banquet on my birthday. You’re my good friends, so you must come.”
Huo You said as she took out two invitation cards from her exquisite handbag and handed them to Xu Mei and Liu Qian. However, they didn’t receive them even after a long while.
Xu Mei wanted to reach out her hand, but Liu Qian, who was beside her, noticed her action and pulled her friend’s sleeve without a trace.
Xu Mei and Liu Qian exchanged glances. Under Liu Qian’s gaze, they suddenly remembered that Huo Tian and Huo You’s birthdays were on the same day, and they had just agreed to attend Huo Tian’s birthday banquet.
Both of them looked a little unnatural. After a long silence, Xu Mei smiled awkwardly and said, “Huo You, I’m really sorry.. We’ve already agreed to attend Huo Tian’s birthday banquet…”
