"Weilan, you're here. Let's sit together." Gu Yuwei greeted Xia Weilan cheerfully.
Last time Xia Weilan had so bravely come to her rescue, which made Gu Yuwei have a good impression of her.
"Sure." Xia Weilan walked straight over and sat down beside Gu Yuwei.
With the two of them sitting together, no one dared to provoke Xia Weilan at this time, which made Xia Weilan feel much more at peace. She spent the whole morning seriously reading books and taking notes.
Gu Yuwei was also very quiet.
At noon when school was over, Gu Yuwei called out to Xia Weilan:
"My mom knows you saved me. She specifically told me to bring you lunch. I hope you don't mind."
After saying that, Gu Yuwei gently took out a thermos lunch box from her bag.
Inside were home - grown native chicken soup, several side dishes, and rice.
Gu Yuwei looked at Xia Weilan somewhat shyly, afraid that Xia Weilan would dislike it.
A few classmates nearby glanced over curiously.
In the entire University A, if there were a few people who brought their own lunch boxes, Gu Yuwei was one of them.
Gu Yuwei's family was poor and couldn't afford the food in the cafeteria. To save money, her mom prepared lunch boxes for her every day.
Unexpectedly, today, Gu Yuwei had brought two lunch boxes.
Xia Weilan sat back down, picked up the chopsticks with one hand, directly picked up a piece of chicken and put it into her mouth. She lifted a beautiful smile and said:
"Thank your aunt for me. Your mom's cooking is really good."
A few classmates who were leaving the classroom a bit late all shook their heads. They thought Gu Yuwei was being disrespectful. Xia Weilan was a relative of Mr. Mo from the Mo Group, yet she made Xia Weilan eat such rural - style food without feeling ashamed.
Seeing that Xia Weilan didn't seem to be disgusted, the tense string in Gu Yuwei's heart finally relaxed.
After they finished eating, she quickly cleaned up the table neatly, not daring to let Xia Weilan do it.
"Weilan, was the person who came to save you that day really Mr. Mo?" Gu Yuwei asked softly, her eyes shining with curiosity.
"Yes." Xia Weilan still remembered what Mo Beichen had said, that she couldn't claim to be Mrs. Mo in front of outsiders, so she didn't say much.
"Then what's your relationship with Mr. Mo?" Gu Yuwei's heart trembled a little. In her eyes, Mo Beichen was like a star in the sky. For anyone to have any connection with him was a great blessing.
"He's my relative." Xia Weilan said casually. She wasn't close enough to Gu Yuwei to share her innermost feelings.
"Wow, really a relative! Weilan, you're so lucky to have such a relative." Gu Yuwei's eyes immediately sparkled.
"Really? Are you interested?" Xia Weilan looked at her in surprise.
"Of course not. A person like me doesn't even have the qualification to meet Mr. Mo. I'm just curious." Gu Yuwei said without hesitation.
After that, the two of them went to the library together to read books.
On the other side, in the Lin family's villa.
Lin Jiancheng came back from a business trip abroad and found his daughter sitting in the living room with her legs crossed, watching TV and eating sweets.
"Dad, you're back." Lin Xuefei quickly sat up straight nervously when she saw her father.
"Is there a holiday at school today? Why are you still at home?" Lin Jiancheng had just got off the plane. He was exhausted and sat down on the opposite sofa. He reached out to pour himself a cup of tea.
"Dad, don't you know? That bitch Xia Weilan was taken away by her grandfather. Her grandfather is rich, and now she's targeting me everywhere at school. I just asked someone to teach her a lesson, but she reported it directly to the principal and made me apologize to her in front of the whole school. I'm the young lady of the Lin family. How could I apologize to her? Dad, tell me I'm right!"
"What? She made you apologize to her? Is she going against me?" Lin Jiancheng didn't finish his tea properly and directly slammed the cup on the table.
Lin Xuefei shrank her neck nervously. A look of venom flashed in her eyes. She didn't dare to mention the fact that Xia Weilan had married Mo Beichen and continued to exaggerate:
"So, I can only hide at home. I'm even too afraid to go to school."
"Go and call that bitch over. I'll make the decision for you!" Lin Jiancheng felt that when he was away on a business trip, the whole family had turned upside down.
When did that freeloader who only ate and lived in his house dare to be so arrogant?
"Didn't we sell her to a casino last time? How did she get back to school?" Lin Jiancheng remembered and asked suspiciously.
"Dad, she doesn't take you seriously at all. I heard that a young master redeemed her."
"Dad, I'll call that bitch right now and make her come back to apologize." Lin Xuefei quickly picked up her phone, thinking that with her father's support, how dare Xia Weilan act recklessly?
Xia Weilan at school was flipping through books in the library when her phone suddenly vibrated.
Xia Weilan glanced at her phone. Seeing that it was Lin Xuefei, she directly hung up. She didn't even want to bother.
But the other side seemed to be determined and kept calling. Xia Weilan had no choice but to go to a corner to answer the call.
As soon as she answered, Lin Jiancheng's angry voice came from the other end: "Where are you? Come back right now and apologize to Xuefei, or I'll make you drop out of school today!"
"Mr. Lin, you don't seem to have the right to meddle in my affairs. You're not related to me."
"I'm your father, the one who raised you and your mother. Who do you think I am!" Lin Jiancheng said authoritatively.
"Really? But a month ago, my grandfather took me out of the Lin family. Besides, my name has never been on your Lin family's household register. You really have no chance to meddle in my affairs!"
Xia Weilan walked outside the library. Her voice was also unceremoniously cold.
On the phone came Lin Jiancheng's heavy breathing. Obviously, he was so angry that he was trembling all over.
"Fine, I see you don't want to go to school anymore. I'll make the principal expel you right now."
After saying that, Lin Jiancheng hung up the phone heavily without giving her a chance to react.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Jiancheng finally managed to calm his breathing. Then he looked at Lin Xuefei seriously:
"Who exactly is Xia Weilan's grandfather?"
"Just an old man surnamed Xia. He's just a bit rich." Lin Xuefei replied immediately.
At that time, that old man came to the Lin family and directly took Xia Weilan away. Lin Xuefei didn't take it seriously. An old man, no matter how rich, couldn't be that powerful.
Later, she heard that the Xia family was in the jewelry business, but she still didn't care much.
"Humph, I'll call the principal right now! With just one word from me, that bitch will come back to beg me in a hurry." Lin Jiancheng said arrogantly.
He walked to one side, picked up his phone, and dialed the number: "Hello, principal. I'm Lin Xuefei's father. I heard that my two daughters were causing trouble at school. I want Xia Weilan to drop out of school directly now, so as not to affect Xuefei's studies."
"Why not?" Lin Jiancheng was stunned.
"What? Her guardian has changed? I can't make the decision? Even so, I still demand that Xia Weilan drop out of school directly. Otherwise, I won't donate to the school next time. Principal, I donated more than one million last semester!"
No one knew what the principal said. Lin Jiancheng's face got darker and darker. Finally, he directly hung up the phone and threw the phone heavily on the sofa.
"Dad, what did the principal say?" Lin Xuefei pulled on Lin Jiancheng's sleeve.
"That dog - eyed thing actually said that Xia Weilan's guardian had donated an entire teaching building." Lin Jiancheng said in disbelief: "I didn't expect her grandfather to be so rich."
"What should we do then? Am I just going to be bullied like this?" Lin Xuefei was so anxious that her eyes were red. Even her all - powerful father couldn't do anything.
"Don't act recklessly about this for now. I'll go and investigate first." Lin Jiancheng hesitated. He picked up his coat and went out again.
