Lin Xiaojuan rubbed her temples, feeling a little helpless. Shen Qianshu and she had been friends since young. Shen Qianshu had studied in international schools since young. On the other hand, Lin Xiaojuan came from a normal family, and her parents could not afford to send her to international school initially. It was because of her good results. She was also a genius from young, having clinched second place in the National Math Olympiad junior category. She was awarded full scholarship and thus was able to study in an international school. In school, she could feel that she could not fit in with the rest of the students.
While Lin Xiaojuan was bullied a lot in school, Shen Qianshu was someone who never studied and was also a little bossy. She was referred to as the school’s boss and had numerous lackeys under her. Getting into a fight with juniors and bullying them were things that she did many times when she was young.
When Lin Xiaojuan was bullied, Shen Qianshu surprisingly protected her. It was actually because Lin Xiaojuan was a genius and also her deskmate. Shen Qianshu could copy her homework and copy her answers during exams.
Student Xiaojuan was intimidated by her strong presence and thus had no choice but to be her lackey.
From then on, she was never bullied.
Shen Qianshu was beautiful and had a good family background. Even though she was the school’s boss, she was also a goddess in everybody’s eyes.
In third grade, Shen Qianshu was fifteen. Hearing that Lin Xiaojuan was bullied by people from the opposite sports school, Shen Qianshu took a metal bat and immediately went to fight those people then. The two young girls were obviously at a disadvantage. Shen Qianshu became unconscious due to a heavy loss of blood, and this caused a series of events that changed Shen Qianshu’s fate.
She was not Shen Family’s daughter.
Due to a heavy loss of blood, she needed a blood transfusion. It was then that Shen Qianshu’s parents found out about her blood type and realised that she was not their biological child.
When Shen Qianshu was born that year, she was wrongly taken. The real Shen Family’s daughter had grown up all along in the welfare home. She had to work and study at the same time and was always oppressed by the welfare home, living a really pitiful life. She was Shen Lin, Shen Family’s real daughter.
This matter was a huge blow to Shen Qianshu. She totally changed.
Shen Qianshu had already treated the Shens as her dad and mom for fifteen years; thus, they also could not bear to send Shen Qianshu back to the welfare home. Shen Grandma also doted on Shen Qianshu a lot, and she was even closer to Shen Qianshu than Shen Lin.
In the first year of high school, Shen Qianshu and Shen Lin enrolled in the same school together.
Not long after, the news that Shen Qianshu was not the biological daughter of Shen Family spread throughout the whole school. Once the school’s boss, Shen Qianshu was as quiet as a lamb. She did not cause trouble anymore and became a serious and hardworking student. She even went to find Lin Xiaojuan for tutoring every day. Her previous lackeys, slowly, all flocked to Shen Lin.
Lin Xiaojuan witnessed throughout the three years of high school how Shen Lin sowed seeds of discord, pretended to be innocent and pitiful, and framed Shen Qianshu. As the young Shen Qianshu was simple and honest, she also felt indebted to Shen Lin, having snatched away fifteen years of her life. Thus, she tolerated everything, and her relationship with her parents also became distanced.
During the college entrance examinations, Shen Lin tore Shen Qianshu’s admission proof, causing Shen Qianshu to miss her exams. Shen Qianshu finally lost it and burst out in anger. Shen Lin pretended to be innocent and turned back to accuse Shen Qianshu instead. Her parents knew that Shen Qianshu was bossy since young, and to protect their own daughter, they decided to send Shen Qianshu away, angering the Shen old lady.
Before the old lady passed away, she felt sorry for Shen Qianshu and left her a sum of money.
After settling Grandma’s funeral arrangements, Shen Qianshu was kicked out of the house and went to Paris to wander alone.
As far as Lin Xiaojuan knew, Shen Qianshu did not keep in touch with the Shen Family after that.
This was something that happened many years ago.
Shen Qianshu never liked attending parties since young; thus, not many people actually knew her. People only knew that the Shen Family’s daughter was a little boss, but not many had actually seen her before. After leaving the Shen Family, Shen Qianshu tried all ways possible to press down the news. Then after, the Shen Family only had one daughter, Shen Lin.
