Yu Qi greeted Madam Sheng in the morning. Like a warm and caring mother, Madam Sheng had already prepared breakfast for both of them.
Yu Qi truly felt touched by Madam Sheng's kindness.
"Eat first. You can go to school after you finish." Madam Sheng said gently.
"Okay." Yu Qi said.
After enjoying the warm breakfast, Yu Qi headed to school on foot.
Fortunately, the school was located nearby. Walking there allowed her to save quite a lot of money on transportation fees. She walked into the classroom in a rather good mood.
However, the moment she entered the classroom, she saw something shocking enough to almost make her turn around and run away from the place.
The scene in front of her was simply overwhelming.
Her classmates were looking at her with all kinds of expressions. Some greeted her happily, while others looked at her with sympathy and pity.
Yu Qi felt extremely confused.
She still had no idea what was going on.
'What happened to these people? Are they crazy or something?' Yu Qi thought to herself.
"I never knew that you were actually an adopted daughter. And you are even the adopted sister of Wang Fu Ya. Wang Fu Ya never told us about that before. She always acted like you were just a stranger to her, even though you were her sister." Someone spoke up.
The person who spoke was actually one of the girls who used to bully Yu Qi.
"To tell you the truth, she was the one who told me that you seduced my boyfriend and asked me to teach you a lesson." The second girl from the bully trio confessed as well. "We are sorry about that."
When the bully trio started speaking, the entire classroom became even more chaotic.
Only then did Yu Qi finally understand what had happened.
The fact that she was the adopted daughter of the Wang Family had already been exposed.
'Someone from the school or someone from their family must have been at the restaurant last night.' Yu Qi thought calmly. 'Well, I don't really care about it anyway. It might actually be better if everyone knows the truth.'
Yu Qi nodded slightly to herself as she finished that thought.
"It's okay. I accept your apology." She smiled at the three girls.
Then she looked at the rest of her classmates and spoke calmly.
"It's true that I was once the adopted daughter of the Wang Family, but I have already cut off all ties with them."
"Ungrateful bitch! It should be the Wang Family cutting ties with you!" A loud voice suddenly shouted.
Everyone in the classroom turned toward the source of the voice in shock.
The one who shouted was Shen Mei, Wang Fu Ya's best friend.
Standing behind her was Wang Fu Ya, who was acting pitiful, looking exactly like a fragile white lotus.
"Then you can try becoming the adopted daughter of the Wang Family yourself," Yu Qi replied coldly while looking directly at Shen Mei.
"You can become their slave and get beaten by them every day."
Her voice sounded extremely calm.
"If you can endure that kind of life, then I will personally kowtow to you."
After saying that, she simply walked toward her seat.
Her classmates were completely speechless.
After a few moments of silence, several people suddenly started laughing at her response.
'We never expected that she could say something so sharp and even a little funny like that.'
Many of her classmates began to see Yu Qi in a completely different light.
Meanwhile, Wang Fu Ya clenched her fingers tightly until her nails dug into her skin.
She could clearly see the mocking looks that some of her classmates were giving her.
'This is all because of that bitch… that bitch!'
In her heart, she cursed Yu Qi over and over again.
Yu Qi, who was sitting in the back row, noticed that Wang Fu Ya was clenching her fingers tightly. She could easily guess that Wang Fu Ya was probably cursing her right now.
A faint sneer appeared on Yu Qi's lips.
"Yu Qi… can I talk to you?" Wang Fu Ya suddenly approached her seat and asked with a pitiful expression.
"Go ahead." Yu Qi replied indifferently, not giving her any face at all.
"Can we talk somewhere alone?" Wang Fu Ya asked.
Yu Qi looked at Wang Fu Ya for a moment.
'What are you planning to do now? Well, I might as well agree to your request and see what kind of plan you have prepared.' Yu Qi had a faint smile.
Yu Qi slowly stood up and walked out of the classroom.
Both of them went to the school garden.
"Alright, talk. No one can hear what we are going to say here," Yu Qi said calmly while crossing her arms. "You have ten minutes. Start now."
Wang Fu Ya bit her lips. 'This bitch had become more and more arrogant.' What right did she have to act so arrogantly in front of her?
"Nine minutes left," Yu Qi reminded her coldly. "Time is ticking. Don't waste it."
"You can't just cut ties with our family like that, Yu Qi." Wang Fu Ya finally spoke. "Even though we may have wronged you before, we are still your family. We can change."
She forced a gentle smile onto her face while trying to hide the hatred deep in her heart.
"We promise that we will treat you much better from now on. You are still a girl. It is not safe for you to live outside alone." Wang Fu Ya added.
In truth, Wang Fu Ya did not care at all about where this bitch lived. However, this matter was related to her own safety.
Her mother had once told her the real reason why Yu Qi had been adopted into their family. Before Wang Fu Ya was born, Madam Wang had visited a shaman to ask about the safety of her future child.
The shaman told her that she needed to adopt a baby and take care of that child until the age of twenty. Only then would Madam Wang's own child remain safe.
Madam Wang followed that strange instruction.
That adopted baby was Yu Qi.
Mr Wang had originally disagreed with this idea because their family was not wealthy. Taking care of two babies at the same time required a lot of money.
Yu Qi and Wang Fu Ya were both infants at that time. Because of the financial pressure, the couple secretly abandoned Yu Qi at an empty house.
However, the very next day after they abandoned her, Wang Fu Ya suddenly developed a very high fever. At that time, seeing a doctor was extremely expensive, so Madam Wang hurriedly brought Wang Fu Ya back to see the shaman again.
The shaman told her seriously, "Bring back that adopted baby. Only then will your child become safe again. You should pray that the baby is still alive. Otherwise, you can prepare to say goodbye to your own daughter."
The couple immediately rushed back to search for Yu Qi.
Fortunately, Yu Qi had not died yet. They even felt a little strange that the baby had survived an entire day without food.
However, the moment they brought Yu Qi back home, Wang Fu Ya's fever mysteriously disappeared. After that, the couple simply forgot about the strange incident.
"Yu Qi… please forgive us and come back home with me." Wang Fu Ya said softly.
She only needed to endure for another four years. After four years, she would personally make sure Yu Qi paid the price.
"No." Yu Qi replied without hesitation. "I don't want to."
"What?" Wang Fu Ya did not expect such a direct rejection.
"Are you deaf?" Yu Qi sneered coldly. "I said I don't want to. Why should I return to that place after I finally managed to escape from it?"
She slowly stepped closer to Wang Fu Ya. Then she leaned closer and whispered softly into Wang Fu Ya's ear.
"Don't think that I don't know the real reason why your family adopted me in the first place." Yu Qi smiled coldly.
"I hope you can stay safe during these next four years." She said again.
She gave Wang Fu Ya an evil smirk before turning around and walking away.
