Don't think of rebirth.

The atmosphere in the Qin family is very good, while that in the Yu family is much worse in comparison.

Last time, Yu Yuan was ranked seventh in Class 12. This time, she moved up two places and is now ranked fifth in the class.

Just like last time, she did not mention her grade ranking, but the average score of Class 12 was still the lowest among all classes, so Yu Yuan’s own grade ranking was probably not very high.

Yu Wenli didn't say anything, but Cui Wanning looked at his face and tentatively praised Yu Yuan, saying things like "you've made progress" and "you've worked harder than last time."

However, these praises seemed insignificant after Yu Xin's results came out.

He was consistently ranked first in the class and ranked one place higher in the grade.

Hearing this, Yu Wenli smiled and praised it, saying "not bad".

To be honest, when Yu Wenli praised her, Yu Xin felt happy for a moment.

When she was little, she had always longed for recognition from her "father". After all, her adoptive father didn't care how many points she got in the exam. No matter how high her score was, he would only say: "Girls have to get married. It's a waste of time to get a high score."

But now, it was not someone else but her biological father who was praising her.

This was the beautiful dream she had once imagined.

However, she quickly struggled out of this emotion and told herself that this was just a hypocritical recognition.

Yu Wenli simply realized her strengths and value once again, and was not simply happy for his daughter's progress.

Yu Jinxin's face looked a little ugly. If he still doubted whether Yu Xin's score was obtained by cheating during the first monthly exam, the grade ranking in the midterm exam was enough to give him a loud slap in the face.

To be honest, he also attended Mingde in high school, but his ranking was not that high then.

Yu Yuan ate very quietly the whole time, or in other words, tried to reduce her presence.

It was one thing for her to hate Yu Xin—although her hatred for her was less now for the sake of a small matter—and it was another thing for a poor student to be in awe of a good student.

Which poor student would angrily question the score of a top student when facing her? Third in the grade, what does that mean? Especially since the test paper is so difficult!

Apart from anything else, when the math teacher was explaining the test paper today, he also said that for the last big math question, only Su Lin from Class 2 and Yu Xin from Class 3 got all the answers correct in the entire grade, and their solutions were different.

She was so confused by the title of the question that she just wrote "Solution:".

The result that satisfied Yu Wenli was that he transferred another 200,000 yuan to Yu Xin.

After Yu Xin returned to her room, she looked at the account change message on her phone and felt that if she continued like this, her view on money would also be disrupted.

She thought about it and painfully opened the chat box with Xia He - at this time, being scolded by Xia He might help her adjust her mentality.

Yu Xin: [I ranked third in my grade in the midterm exam, and my family gave me 200,000 yuan.]

After she sent the message, she didn't expect Xia He to reply immediately, and went to sort out her wrong questions.

Ten minutes later, Xia He sent a reply: [Just barely enough, for the sake of cash. ]

Yu Xin: [Is there anything particular about it?]

Xia He: [You can buy anything you want with cash, but if I give you something directly, then you only have the freedom to accept it or not.]

Yu Xin paused as she thought of Yu Yuan’s tablet, clothes, bag…all kinds of “things”.

Although Yu Yuan could get money just by acting coquettishly, she usually asked for money in order to buy something, and the amount she gave was almost the same as the price of the item.

She sighed in her heart, wondering if Yu Yuan realized this, when she noticed out of the corner of her eye that Xia He had sent another new message.

Xia He: [No way? You wouldn't be soft-hearted just because of these two hundred thousand dollars, would you?]

The fist hardened! Yu Xin took a breath. Usually Xia He was in the lecture mode, why was she so sarcastic today?

She replied stiffly: [I'm not soft-hearted, I just feel numb from receiving money.]

Xia He: [Screenshot.jpg]

What was sent to her was a screenshot of the WeChat wallet balance. Yu Xin counted it, tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, millions... She stopped counting here.

Xia He: [Are you still numb? ]

Xia He: [Can you please have some insight? Let’s not talk about the main business of the Yu family. Even the company owned by Yu Lao San has a daily turnover of more than this.]

Xia He: [Hurry up and finish your three years of high school, go to college, and study for an MBA...]

Xia He: [No, it’s too late to graduate after finishing my MBA. It will be very troublesome to compete with Yu Jinxin for it then.]

Yu Xin secretly looked it up. MBA means Master of Business Administration. She had never thought about "studying for a master's degree" before. "Entering university" was her highest wish.

Xia He bombarded her with a lot of words, and Yu Xin's knowledge was broadened again.

It turns out that her world can be even wider, Yu Xin thought.

She will not be blinded by two hundred thousand anymore. She wants to think about bigger things, millions, tens of millions... no, hundreds of millions!

Although it seems a bit superficial to measure value with monetary units, she wants to use this as a standard to create her own wealth and meaning.

Yu Xin: [I have confidence in studying.]

Yu Xin: [Please recommend a suitable major to me in Peking University. ]

Xia He: [You have good ambitions. Let’s talk about it after the second year of high school.]

Xia He: [I left because of something]

After that, Xia He never sent any messages again. Instead, Yu Xin was irritated. She looked up information for a long time, and the more she checked, the more she felt that she was too shallow.

She looked at the small screen of her mobile phone and felt that she still needed a tablet.

Isn't it just a tablet? She has received 200,000 yuan, she will buy it tomorrow! Go to the offline store! Buy the latest model!

With a "thump", the phone fell to the ground.

The young man lying on the hospital bed stuffed a special chewing gum into his mouth and bit it tightly. The nurse next to him rushed over and put special gloves on him to prevent him from clenching his fists too tightly and breaking his palms. She also fixed his limbs to prevent him from struggling too violently.

Big beads of cold sweat slid down his forehead and hit the pillow, leaving deep and shallow marks of sweat.

The brown-haired, white-skinned doctor took Xia He's latest physical report, looked at his appearance, sighed, and finally turned around and left the ward.

Back in the office, she found Xia He's physical report when she first arrived from the folder on the shelf and compared it with the current physical report.

In just about a month, Xia He's height grew from 1.58 meters to 1.65 meters, a full 7 centimeters.

She knew that Xia He had once taken that growth-inhibiting drug, and she could understand his desire to get rid of the effects of the drug and restore his normal height.

However, current treatment options are not perfect enough. Even if good results are achieved, the burden on muscles and bones is too great.

The pain caused by this is even more excruciating. Ordinary painkillers have no effect. Xia He himself refuses to use opioid painkillers. Now he can only endure it by himself.

About twenty minutes later, the nurse came to report that Xia He's condition had stabilized, and the doctor returned to the ward.

Xia He lay on her back on the bed, looking at the red marks on her wrists caused by the straps. When she saw her come in, she smiled palely and happily: "In a few days, I should be able to adapt to this stage."

In other words, he plans to move on to the next stage of treatment in a few days.

The doctor said seriously, "Not for a few days, it will take at least another two weeks."

"Ten days." Xia He didn't even blink.

Damn, I was tempted! The doctor stared at Xia He. She quickly assessed the current situation in her mind and said reluctantly, "Okay, but you must follow the doctor's orders during this period."

"No problem." Xia He answered readily.

The doctor watched Xia He ask someone to hand him the phone, and couldn't help asking, "Xia, why are you so anxious? I've seen the contact records, and you weren't interested in treatment last year."

"Indeed," Xia He tapped the phone screen with her still numb fingers, "If possible, I want to remain in the appearance of a child until I die. Now, no, I mean I thought my height was too high a few months ago."

The doctor's heart tightened. An earlier psychological diagnosis report on Xia He mentioned that he had a strong tendency towards death, but he did not want to commit suicide.

As it involves the patient's privacy, it is difficult to dig deep, but we can vaguely guess that Xia He hopes that she has died in the past rather than surviving until now.

"So now..." The doctor was interrupted by Xia He before he could finish his words.

He smiled and said, "Because right now, there is a wonderful drama going on."

“I’m looking forward to how the heroine will unfold this story.”

"Because there may be a time when I will be on stage, I want to appear in a more respectable manner and continue to exist as an important character."

"Don't you think this is interesting?"
