Folk customs begin with the entire funeral procession

Chapter 177 Look in the Mirror Yourself

Chen Muqing thought Chen Miao was joking, so she glared at him and then said to Huang Jinjin, "Little kid, you can't talk properly. It's my treat today."

As soon as Chen Muqing spoke, Huang Jinjin's ex-boyfriend, who had been ignored from the sidelines, seemed to have found a way to win her back.

He stepped forward and said to Chen Muqing, "You want to treat us? We can't afford it."

After saying that, he pointed at Chen Miao.

"You've got guts, kid. Come on, come out with me."

As he spoke, he reached out to grab Chen Miao's collar.

Snapped!
Shao Qidong stood up and slapped Huang Jinjin's ex-boyfriend's hand away.

"Speak up if you have something to say. If you keep making trouble, I'll call security."

The man smiled.

"Call security?"

"Come on, call out!"

As Shao Qidong hesitated, seeing the other party's confident demeanor, the waiter who had led them to the booth earlier came over with four security guards.

"Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"

The waiter slightly bent over and looked in Chen Miao's direction as he spoke.

Before Chen Miao could speak, Huang Jinjin's ex-boyfriend slapped a platinum card onto the waiter's chest.

"I remember reserving this booth before, have you forgotten?"

Huang Jinjin's ex-boyfriend looked at the waiter with a half-smile in his eyes.

This isn't the first time he's done this.

Whenever he couldn't find a booth, he would find a waiter, slap his platinum card on the waiter's chest, and say something similar.

The waiters who frequent bars are all shrewd people, so they naturally knew what he meant.

So most people would help him 'adjust' a booth.

Huang Jinjin's ex-boyfriend knew this time was no exception.

Just as he was looking at Shao Qidong and grinning crookedly, the waiter's voice rang out.

"Excuse me, sir, you don't have a reservation. If you would like a booth, there are two available over there. Shall I take you there?"

Huang Jinjin's ex-boyfriend froze, first in disbelief, then pointing at the waiter's chest and saying, "Are you sure? If not, you'd better go and confirm!"

Seeing this, the waiter bowed and handed the platinum card back.

"Sir, this booth was reserved by this gentleman with the black gold card. I suppose you must have made a mistake?"

The waiter knew perfectly well that if things continued to develop this way, it would be a classic case of being humiliated.

While it may be welcome, that's only when it doesn't concern me personally.

If this happened in front of him, there's no guarantee that the platinum card user wouldn't cause him trouble afterwards.

Therefore, he didn't let things escalate further and directly pointed out Chen Miao's identity as the owner of the black gold card, which served as a reminder to the other party.

Sure enough, the mention of a black gold card immediately silenced Huang Jinjin's ex-boyfriend.

Huang Jinjin, who had been staring at Chen Miao with a somewhat cold expression, suddenly changed her demeanor.

She said to her ex-boyfriend, "Deng Chen, you guys go have fun somewhere else. I'll come find you later."

Deng Chen wanted to say something, but seeing Huang Jinjin's suddenly unsmiling face, he ultimately didn't dare to speak.

After Deng Chen and the others left, Huang Jinjin said to the waiter, "This is none of your business."

As she spoke, Huang Jinjin took out a black gold card from her bag and handed it to the waiter.

"Go and deliver some wine to my friend."

The waiter glanced at the black gold card supplementary card that Huang Jinjin had brought, said nothing, nodded to Chen Miao and the others, and left.

After everyone around her had left, Huang Jinjin turned to look at Chen Miao.

Seeing Huang Jinjin's attitude, Chen Muqing felt a little worried for Chen Miao.

Huang Jinjin was Shao Qidong's ex-girlfriend, but that was three years ago.

About six months after Shao Qidong broke up with Huang Jinjin, he started dating Chen Muqing. Since they were both in Shannan City and their social circles were similar, Shao Qidong and Huang Jinjin often ran into each other.

Chen Muqing naturally learned of Huang Jinjin's existence.

Although the two had no prior conflict, sometimes women don't need a special reason to get along.

From their first meeting, Chen Muqing would always exchange a few words with Huang Jinjin every time they met. However, in the past year, Chen Muqing has been arguing with Huang Jinjin less.

It wasn't that the two became friends through a "quarrel"; rather, Huang Jinjin had a new boyfriend and was even pregnant, just waiting to get married.

But who knew that she would encounter this again, and there was no sign of her being pregnant.

Chen Muqing initially thought it was just gossip, but when Chen Miao said those words, Huang Jinjin's change in attitude made Chen Muqing's heart skip a beat.

Chen Miao has probably run into a brick wall.

Chen Muqing knew a little about Huang Jinjin's family background. After all, the fact that she could be with Shao Qidong and break up with him because of her princess-like temper showed how pampered she was.

This time, when I saw that black gold card, although it was a supplementary card like the one she had, the owners of the primary cards corresponding to the supplementary cards should be quite different.

Chen Miao got his black gold card by luck, but Huang Jinjin's black gold card couldn't possibly have been obtained by luck either.

So Chen Muqing, who had never seen Huang Jinjin before, was a little intimidated.

She subtly criticized Shao Qidong.

Shao Qidong understood and immediately said, "Jinjin, the child was talking nonsense. I apologize on his behalf."

As Shao Qidong was about to pick up his glass to drink, Huang Jinjin simply said, "It's none of your business, and I won't do anything to a child. I just want to know how he found out."

Huang Jinjin looked at Chen Miao and said.

If she was initially furious and wanted to kill Chen Miao when she first heard his words, those thoughts faded after she learned that Chen Miao also had a black card.

All she wants to know now is where the other person found out.

She wants the person who leaked her information to be punished as they deserve.

Shao Qidong frowned, then looked at Chen Miao.

"Chen Miao, tell her everything you know."

Chen Muqing was also under the table, gently squeezing Chen Miao's hand.

Chen Miao glanced at Shao Qidong and Chen Muqing, knowing their concerns.

This was indeed his fault; he couldn't hold back and made the two of them worry.

But things have come to this point, and he can't just try to fool people.

He immediately looked at Huang Jinjin and said, "I told you, it was me who saw it."

Huang Jinjin narrowed her eyes, already feeling impatient.

Her surgery wasn't performed in a regular hospital, so how could Chen Miao possibly have seen it?

"Then tell me, where did you see it?"

Chen Miao's gaze suddenly fell on Huang Jinjin's face.

There, a tiny palm was pressed against the ground, and the owner of the palm was looking at him with eyes that were not yet open.

Chen Miao let out a soft breath.

Even though he had seen it many times before, this scene still had a strong impact on him.

Without answering Huang Jinjin's question, Chen Miao pulled a small bottle from the tactical vest he was wearing underneath his clothes and placed it on the table.

Then he said to Chen Muqing, "Sister, do you have a makeup mirror? Can I use it?"

Seeing Chen Miao so calm, Chen Muqing unconsciously felt less nervous.

She took a small makeup mirror out of her bag and handed it to Chen Miao.

Chen Miao took it and placed it together with the bottle.

"You might not believe me when I tell you, so see for yourself."

"Spray the spray on your face, then look in the mirror, and you'll understand."

"Hmm...you should take a picture first, then spray the mist, and then take another picture last."

"This way, we can have a comparison."

Hearing Chen Miao's words, Huang Jinjin was stunned for a moment.

Looking at the two items on the table, she felt a chill for some reason.

Why take a picture?
What can it possibly reflect?
Huang Jinjin didn't want to think too much about it, but when she reached out her hand, she couldn't help but hesitate.
