Chapter 108 Huo Ziheng Lied

As soon as Huo Ziheng saw the coconut in Huo Miao's hands, he exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't that the very coconut that hit me just now? You picked it up?"

Huo Miao paused mid-motion. Huo Ziheng's comment was probably just blurted out due to sheer astonishment, with no other implication. But to Huo Miao's ears, it sounded rather embarrassing.

Since when had she been reduced to secretly picking up a discarded coconut for survival?

Huo Miao couldn't help biting her lip, "I saw it could be eaten… so I picked it up."

In truth, the moment Huo Miao saw the coconut on the ground, she realized it was edible. While the other guests hadn't arrived yet, she stealthily kicked the coconut into the bushes, and since everyone's attention was on Qi Xingzhou at the time, no one noticed her slight action.

Then after everyone had left, Huo Miao secretly hid the coconut in her backpack.
