This was also the main reason why she had lied to them.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked at her and asked, "Did you friends go overboard saying things to you?"
He Qiya was silent for a while. Then she smiled, but there was some bitterness in it.
Mu Xiaoxiao sighed and asked again, "Was it one of the three from earlier?"
They had really gone too far!
However, what she couldn't understand was why He Qiya still wanted to treat them as friends even after what happened.
He Qiya shook her head and said, "No. That friend… went overseas with her boyfriend. She's not in China now."
"Isn't it your birthday today? She's not coming back to celebrate with you?" Mu Xiaoxiao was surprised.
"It's only a birthday. It's not a big deal," said He Qiya.
"Today is your eighteenth birthday, right?" Mu Xiaoxiao looked straight into her eyes and saw a trace of sadness inside.
An eighteenth birthday marked the passage into adulthood.
