Chapter 71: “Old Friend”
“Did Teacher Lin Ling bring a newcomer today?” Huo Chulan asked the classmates around her.
She was very popular in school and was a famous high-scoring goddess. After she asked her question, someone immediately answered.
“Yes! Teacher Lin brought a super good-looking girl. The academic genius even asked for her contact number but was rejected.”
There was only one person who could be called the academic genius in the School of Design. Even Huo Chulan was not as outstanding as she was.
Huo Chulan wanted to take a look.
And she did.
Lin Ling had already brought Xing Jiuan out to look for her professor, and Huo Chulan happened to bump into them.
She was taken aback in an instant.
She had always known that she was not the daughter of the Huo family, but after enjoying a wealthy life with them for more than ten years, she was already used to it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe knew that the real daughter of the Huo family had been missing for more than ten years. Recently, she had seen that there was something wrong with her parents and two elder brothers. She had gotten someone to investigate and had seen Xing Jiuan’s photo.
However, when she saw her with her own eyes, she still could not help but be shocked.
The Huo family members were all very good-looking, and her looks were not bad either. In fact, within the Huo family, her face could not even be considered average.
When Madam Huo was young, she was famous for her beauty. Her facial features were exquisite, and she’d had countless suitors.
Madam Huo was a little partial to appearances. If not for Mr. Huo’s good looks, Madam Huo would not have taken a liking to him no matter how outstanding he was.
Both of Huo Chulan’s brothers were very good-looking as well. Although she knew that she was not this family’s biological child, she’d always wanted to blend in.
Not many people liked her either. Some girls in the same circle had talked about her before.
They said that Huo Chulan did not look like a child of the Huo family. Whether it was her face or her personality, she did not seem like a member of the Huo family at all.
The Huo family members were arrogant and never tried to curry favor.
However, Huo Chulan had always been trying to build a good relationship with others in the same circle.
At the same time, she seemed to be constantly showing off her status as a daughter of a wealthy family.
It’s like she was being a clown on purpose, and people found it hilarious.
Huo Chulan tried to change, but those people still looked down on her.
When she saw Xing Jiuan, she felt like she was very familiar.
It was not because she had seen a photo of her.
Xing Jiuan’s eyebrows looked a little like her mother’s, but not entirely. However, the aloofness and coldness in her eyes were very similar to Big Brother’s.
Xing Jiuan’s five senses were sharp. When she sensed someone staring at her, she looked over and happened to meet Huo Chulan’s somewhat absent-minded gaze.
She could not help but clench her fists.
In her previous life, Huo Chulan had done too many things to her. Now, seeing the other party was making her lose her self-control a little.
“Jiuan, have lunch with me.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmXing Jiuan did not agree immediately and said that she would see how things go first.
She did not look at Huo Chulan again.
Lin Ling went back after sending her to her professor. Xing Jiuan still needed to stay here for a while.
This professor was already in his sixties. He had white hair and wore a pair of glasses. When he saw Xing Jiuan enter, he smiled and waved at her.
Xing Jiuan went over.
“Sit down,” the professor said gently.
Xing Jiuan sat down.
“Your thesis is very good. Have you always known so much about this?”
“My elder brother taught me before.”
There had never been many people in the archaeology department. Xing Jiuan’s thesis had also made the old professor recognize her as a good seedling, so he had a long chat with her.
The old professor originally wanted to go with Xing Jiuan to meet her senior brothers and senior sisters, but a student was having some trouble and came looking for him. Therefore, he had no choice but to say goodbye to Xing Jiuan for the time being.
