Don't think of rebirth.

Seeing Yu Yuan follow Yu Xin into the bedroom, Jiang Chuchu raised her eyebrows: "Did you drag her along?"

Yu Yuan was shocked, as if she woke up from a dream, and suddenly shook off Yu Xin's hand.

The door had already closed behind her, and it would be too abrupt for her to go out again. In the end, she just stood at the door motionless.

Yu Xin didn't care that her hand was shaken away, she just explained to Jiang Chuchu: "I was afraid that if I left her there, Yu Jinxin would scold her later."

This sentence touched Yu Yuan's sore spot, and she screamed - but her voice was not loud, as if she was worried about touching some taboo.

"What is there to be afraid of? If it weren't for you, why would my brother scold me? You were just too noisy just now, and I was implicated by you!" Yu Yuan said viciously.

Jiang Chuchu rolled her eyes. She could see that Yu Yuan was deceiving herself.

Gu Qinghuan thought for a moment and said, "You are right."

Yu Yuan never thought that she would agree, and was stunned for a moment.

"You have indeed been implicated by us. Yu Jinxin thought that you and us couldn't get along well, but he didn't expect that we could have a normal chat." Gu Qinghuan looked at Yu Yuan and said calmly, "If I hadn't approached you and asked you to play the piano, we wouldn't have started chatting, and you wouldn't have to be scolded by him."

No, that's not the case.

Yu Yuan's lips moved. She wanted to say something, but her throat was blocked.

Gu Qinghuan approached her just to ask where to get some water, but she deliberately made things difficult for Gu Qinghuan instead.

Afterwards, Gu Qinghuan didn't get angry. She poured her some water, talked to her normally, and listened to her play the piano.

Although she had no appreciation at all and could only make comments like "it sounds good", "this part is so lively", "it sounds like she wants to dance", she didn't even have the courtesy to hum along and even hummed out of tune - but it was really interesting.

She never had any friends over to her house.

With a "pop", big tears rolled out of Yu Yuan's eyes and hit the floor with a loud noise.

"I hate you," she sobbed, throwing all her words at Yu Xin, "Why can you invite friends to your home, why can you make friends like this, why are your grades so good..."

"Why, why are you real, why do you need to be found..."

"Why...I am fake..."

The room was so quiet that the only sound that could be heard was Yu Yuan's sobbing.

Zhima jumped up from the bed in the bedroom, walked into the living room, and saw that there was one more person in the room. She was a little used to it.

It paced to Yu Xin's feet, arched its back and rubbed her hard, then meowed coquettishly: Mom, the cat has slept well, and the cat wants to eat snacks!

Hearing the cat's cry, Yu Yuan seemed to be defeated again. She wiped her tears fiercely and continued, "And cats, cats too! They, they didn't let me keep a cat. At that time, I was not fake. They didn't allow it, so why can you! "

"My cat is very well behaved. It's black and follows me everywhere. It comes over whenever I call it. I can hold it and it never bites me..."

"I named it Tan, Tantan. On the day my mother threw it away, I made a ribbon for it in the handicraft class. I wanted to put it on..."

Speaking of cats, Yu Yuan cried even harder and couldn't even speak.

Jiang Chuchu felt pity for her after listening to her. Seeing that Yu Yuan was still crying, she couldn't stand it anymore, so she took a few tissues from the coffee table and pressed them on Yu Yuan's face.

Yu Yuan was crying so hard that her tears and snot were streaming down her face. She subconsciously took the tissue and wiped her tears.

She had wrinkled several tissues into a ball, and when she heard Yu Xin say "Here you go", she thought it was another tissue, so she reached out to take it, but was stuffed with a furry thing.

She was startled, and through her tearful eyes, she met the eyes of the cat with wide open eyes in her hand.

"Don't drop the sesame seeds." Gu Qinghuan interjected.

Yu Yuan reflexively stretched out her other hand and held the sesame seeds with both hands.

She had no hands to wipe her tears, so she stood there blankly. Yu Xin took out a tissue and wiped it on her face.

"I..." Yu Xin hesitated, but finally made up her mind and said, "I hated you at first, too."

"I don't understand why mom and dad don't like me even though I'm the real daughter. They look at me like an adoptive mother who wants to sell me off, with calculations in her eyes."

"My hands are rough, my skin is dark, and I'm skinny, but you're different. You can play the piano, speak confidently, and dress up like a princess when you participate in competitions. I really envy you, especially when I think about how I should have looked like you, I feel even sadder."

"Whether it's mom, dad, or brother, they all like you more than me. I always thought that I was not good enough, so I worked hard to learn and wanted to be like you..."

At this point, Yu Xin paused. She turned her head to look at Gu Qinghuan and Jiang Chuchu, then turned her head back and said firmly: "But now I don't think so anymore, because I found that my relatives don't really love me, they just evaluate me as a commodity."

"I can answer your question about 'why' right now - because I worked hard, because I got good grades, and because I became friends with the daughter of the Jiang family, whom my father values."

"He never values ​​me or treats me preferentially because I am his daughter, but because I am profitable, so he invests in me."

Yu Xin spoke very forcefully, as if he was scraping off an old streak of dirt with a steel brush.

"So I don't hate you anymore. You are not my enemy. You are bound by your family just like me."

"I even think that you are more pitiful than me because you haven't realized this fact yet and are still looking forward to being pampered by your family."

"If this is the case, you will be used by the Yu family sooner or later, using your value to become the Yu family's nourishment, right?"

Yu Yuan stood there motionless, then came to her senses and stuffed the sesame seeds back into Yu Xin's arms: "I don't believe it! It's not what you said! You are just trying to instigate us!"

"You are the pitiful one! I am not pitiful at all!"

After Yu Yuan finished speaking, she opened the door and ran out. After listening to the noise, she returned to her room. Gu Qinghuan could even hear the sound of her slamming the door.

She closed the door and turned to see Yu Xin looking at a loss: "Am I being too arrogant?"

"No," Jiang Chuchu said immediately, "She herself can't accept it. I think what you said is very good."

Gu Qinghuan also nodded: "For this kind of thing, it's useless to just talk about it verbally. She has to see the reality herself."

However, judging from what Yu Yuan said, Gu Qinghuan felt that she was not really unable to see through things.

She just didn't want to accept the fact.

She knew clearly that she was fake, and knew that everything she had now was built on the foundation of the Yu family. If she fell out with the Yu family, she would be left with nothing.

They are all still high school students, and reality is not like in novels, where they can just buy a lottery ticket and win the jackpot and achieve financial freedom - not to mention that they are not allowed to buy lottery tickets as minors.

Yu Xin touched the sesame seeds in her arms and said seriously, "I will try again."

Her words may not be powerful enough, but she believes in her ability to act.
