Adoption
Zhong Nian and Tong Yao were famous school tyrants. Zhong Nian’s family was quite powerful and could be deemed the most powerful family in Haicheng. Besides his poor grades, Zhong Nian was outstanding in appearance, sports, and talent. He could be considered half a school hunk.
Tong Yao’s family background seemed to be mysterious, but Zhong Nian had always respected and relied on him, so Tong Yao’s status was obviously higher than Zhong Nian’s. Moreover, Tong Yao had been recognized as the school hunk ever since he entered the school with countless admirers at his feet.
Since Zhong Nian and Tong Yao were the focus of the students, the rumors spread very fast in the school.
A trash fisherman girl from the countryside had actually captured the hearts of the school bully and the school hunk?
Guo Lin and a few other girls also talked about this when they were eating in the cafeteria.
“You know what? Tong Yao and Zhong Nian seem to have taken a fancy to the transfer student from Class 10, Tong.”
“A transfer student?” Guo Lin frowned.
Who else could it be other than Guo Miao?
“How come I didn’t hear about it?” Guo Lin’s image in the class had always been that of a little princess who didn’t like to talk much. When everyone heard her question, they immediately gathered around her to please her and discuss it with her.
“I heard that she dissed Miss Gu before and even signed up for the English competition.”
“She actually went against Miss Gu. I really didn’t know she would do such a thing. Sigh.” Guo Lin lowered her eyes. “It seems that I have to let my mother handle this.”
“Your mother?” The girl who had spoken was called Lu Ya. She was also a student in Class 1, but she was a dance prodigy. While she didn’t study much, she formed a clique with a group of her friends in class. She had liked Tong Yao for a long time, but it had always been a one-sided love.
When she heard about this today, she was so angry that she almost rushed to Class 10 and tore Guo Miao’s face apart.
“Her surname is also Guo. Is she a relative of your family? ” Lu Ya asked.
“She’s from Dongshan. I don’t know much about it.”
“She’s from Dongshan. Is she adopted by your family? She doesn’t look like a member of the Guo family.”
Guo Lin did not refute Lu Ya’s words.
She was telling the truth. She was not the one who had suggested the adoption. If the students had any misunderstanding, it was none of her business.
“Hey, isn’t that her?”
The girls all looked at the entrance of the cafeteria. Guo Miao was walking towards the window with a plate.
“Let’s go and meet her.” Lu Ya gave her friends a dangerous look.
“You’re from the countryside, so go to the back. The food here is not for trash like you.”
Guo Miao was in the queue when a girl cut in front of her.
Just as Guo Miao was about to retort, another girl cut in.
“Yeah, trash. I don’t know what disgusting means she used to seduce Tong Yao.”
“You two, don’t cut the line. It’s normal for an adopted fisherman’s daughter to have some tricks up her sleeve. Let’s not make things difficult for her. I believe Tong Yao will definitely learn about her true colors.”
Lu Ya walked over and pulled the two girls out of the line by their arms. She raised her chin and looked at Guo Miao.
“Since the Guo family is willing to adopt you, you should stay here and study well. Stop daydreaming. Do you really think you can catch Tong Yao’s eye with your face?” Lu Ya’s voice was very gentle, but every word she said was extremely vicious.
Guo Miao looked at the three people in front of her, frowning.
Adopted? When did she become an adopted child?
Seeing that Guo Miao didn’t react, Lu Ya pushed her further and even poked Guo Miao’s shoulder.
“I’m talking to you. What’s wrong? Are you mute?”
Just as she was about to push Guo Miao away, Guo Miao grabbed her hand and shoved her away.
“I am indeed from the countryside.” She tidied her clothes. “But the adopted child you’re talking about is not me.”
She reached out and pushed Lu Ya’s shoulder as Lu Ya had.
“You’d better ask Guo Lin before you talk to me.”
After Guo Miao finished speaking, she pushed them aside and walked to another window.
They looked at each other and did not speak for a long time.
What nonsense was this trash talking about? Could she also be the daughter of the Guo family?
After the meal, Guo Miao saw Guo Lin at the sink where the plates were placed.
Guo Miao looked at Guo Lin and laughed, which gave Guo Lin goosebumps.
“What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing. I just feel that some fakes really like to call others fakes.” Guo Miao’s voice was slow and unhurried. She couldn’t be bothered to look at Guo Lin’s expression and strode away.
