“Gu Qingjiu, did you become stupid after sleeping?”

Xie Yuning’s mocking voice sounded again, and it seemed to pull Gu Qingjiu back from her thoughts. She paused and pursed her lips, she then spread out the distribution form again, but her eyes never spared Xie Yuning a glance.

Being ignored by Gu Qingjiu, Xie Yuning’s expression turned slightly stiff.

She had always been an influential person in their cla.s.s. She was a beautiful and charming girl who did well in her studies in the eyes of her cla.s.smates. How could an

‘invisible’

person in cla.s.s ignore her today?

Was she seeking death?

Students like Gu Qingjiu, who were not good in their studies and were never extraordinary, were undoubtedly

‘invisible’

people in the eyes of those who liked to show off.

Xie Yuning’s face was stark red and the students around quickly helped her. One by one, they started mocking Gu Qingjiu.

“Gu Qingjiu, what’s the matter with you today? Can’t you hear Yuning speaking to you?”

“People like you are really rude. Are you purposely ignoring people when they are talking to you?”

“Hehe, you’re becoming more stupid the more I look at you!”

If it had been before, Gu Qingjiu would have been angry hearing people mocking her, and yet she would still keep the anger inside of her, not daring to let it out. But today, Gu Qingjiu felt that these people were noisy, just like frogs!

With a sc.r.a.pe, she took her crumpled distribution form and went straight out of the cla.s.sroom.

Behind her, Xie Yuning and her group of followers, all looked at one another and became furious.

At that time, Gu Qingjiu was eighteen years old, and it was undoubtedly the best part of her life. However, she still lived an unhappy school life.

She was slightly chubby, old-fas.h.i.+oned, did not know how to dress up, and she looked dull and a bit autistic. In the eyes of these people, Gu Qingjiu was a

‘freak’

that could never integrate into any group.

She was dressed in loose school uniform, her exquisite facial features were blocked by thick-framed bangs, and her chubby face led to all of her advantages being completely hidden. It was not surprising at all for her to be not popular.

She held that distribution form and was a little anxious when she learned that she had been reborn.

The Yu family…

They would be coming for her soon. She could not go back!

The Yu family was a rich family from North City. It seemed like they had nothing to do with her, but in fact, she was the second daughter abandoned by the Yu family from before.

Gu Qingjiu did not know how she was abandoned, but she knew that the Yu family did not like her at all.

Her adoptive parents had pampered her, and with that alone she could live a smooth life. But, a few months later, when something happened to the Yu Family company, the Li family in the same city offered to help them on the condition that Yu s.h.i.+wei, the famous Miss of the Yu family in North City, marry the silly son of the Li family.

Yu s.h.i.+wei had always been arrogant ever since she was a child. Even if something happened to her family, she would not agree to sacrifice herself, but then again, the Yu family also could not bear to do it. After using every conceivable means, they thought of this abandoned second daughter.

They found out Gu Qingjiu’s adoptive family and used some means to force her to go back to the Yu family to marry the silly young master of the Li family instead of Yu s.h.i.+wei.

Unfortunately, the silly young master did not live long. A car had hit him when he went out one day and pa.s.sed away. By then, the innocent Gu Qingjiu had just returned to the Yu family and earned the reputation of being a jinx. She was not only hated by the Li family but also despised by the Yu family.

If it wasn’t for Su Lingche’s appearance…

Gu Qingjiu thought of the warm gentleman, thought of the gentle words he had whispered in her ears, and it provoked tears in her eyes soon after…
