Chapter 33: Hated Each Other

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

He didn’t know how, why, or when...

His gaze unconsciously fell on this girl. Of course, it had nothing to do with the love between a man and a woman.

If she really said something, or if Shang Jiuying felt that he could use the words ‘sympathize with the same person’?

He would protect her as much as possible. Until the last breath of his life.

Qin Yiyi didn’t take the rumors in the school seriously.

Due to her good exam results and positive attitude towards learning, Teacher Zhou only indirectly asked a few questions. After hearing Qin Yiyi say that it was just a friend who dropped her to school every day, he put this matter aside. However, he still followed the advice of a form teacher and gave her a few words of advice. It was nothing more than to study hard and improve every day.

In the end, he even told her that if there were any difficulties, he would definitely talk to the head and the school would solve it together.

After Qin Yiyi thanked him, she directly dragged Lu Jinwan and continued to brush the questions.

Next year would be the third year of high school. She still wanted to drag Lu Jinwan into the same school. She could not be stupid!

The second year, the third year, the whole grade —

If she was stupid, then what were students like her?

Stupid birds?

The next morning, after a class, Lu Jinwan came over mysteriously.

“Hey, hey, did you know that Xiao Shan took a leave of absence?”

What was so strange about taking a leave of absence?

Qin Yiyi raised her eyelids and stuffed a stack of test papers into her hand.

“I especially organized this last night. You can take it home and make it today.”

Lu Jinwan lowered her head and looked at the ten test papers in her hand. Her face fell. “Yiyi, I’ve been working on the questions for a month. It’s not easy for me to have a weekend off tomorrow. Can you let me play for a day?”

“No.”

Qin Yiyi glanced at her. She paused and added, “I’ll play a game with you when I’m done.”

“Two games!”

Lu Jinwan was instantly elated. She opened her eyes wide and bargained.

“Alright, two rounds then.”

In any case, it had been a long time since she had exercised her muscles and bones.

“Yay!” Lu Jinwan shouted happily.

She foolishly turned around and took two steps with the test paper in her hands. Suddenly, she came to her senses. Before she could get down to business, she quickly turned around and ran to Qin Yiyi. “Yiyi, let me tell you. When that Xiao Shan went home last night, he was wrapped in a gunny sack. I heard that he was beaten badly and his face was disfigured. No wonder he didn’t come to class this morning... Haha, isn’t this called karma? He’s always going against you. I’m so happy. We can go out for a good meal after school to celebrate.”

As she spoke, she walked to her seat happily.

The bell for class soon rang.

The chemistry teacher was teaching, but Qin Yiyi was absent-minded.

‘Beaten on the way home last night?’

Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, a few days had passed. It happened to be the weekend. It was also the 18th birthday of Qin Yiyi and Qin Jiatong, these twins.

The night before last, Qin Yiyi received a special phone call from the Qin family’s housekeeper. She was invited to celebrate her birthday at home!

Back then, Qin Yiyi had directly replied with one word. ‘No!’

In the past, there had always been only one person for Mr. and Mrs. Qin to celebrate their birthday with, and it was Qin Jiatong.

So it was better to do as usual.

It was the right thing to wake up naturally on a big day. What was the point of going through all this trouble?

Unfortunately, the doorbell was almost blown up early in the morning.

Qin Yiyi wanted to ignore it, but she was a responsible person and had neighbors here.

It wouldn’t be good if others complained that she was disturbing the people.

She opened the door.

The people outside had dark expressions on their faces. “Qin Yiyi, you’re so arrogant. Why have you not listened to me? Didn’t I tell you two days ago to go home today? What do you mean? You slept until now and you still want me to invite you...” They looked up and down at Qin Yiyi’s cartoon-patterned pajamas.

With her messy long hair, Mrs. Qin’s face turned even darker. “Look at you. Do you look like a girl at all?”

“How did I give birth to a daughter like you?”

Qin Yiyi yawned and nodded in agreement. “I think so too. Why don’t we go and have a DNA test?”

Was it possible that she had carried the wrong person?

Mrs. Qin was so angry that she fell on her back. She took a few deep breaths to suppress her anger. She threw a bag onto the sofa at the side and said, “This is the dress that your father and I bought for you. Put it on now and come back to the old house with me.”

After a pause, she looked at Qin Yiyi with disdain. “Forget it, forget it. Come with me to the beauty salon now. Look at your hair. You don’t look like a girl at all.”

If she really appeared like this at the birthday party, she would become the biggest joke in Shanghai by tomorrow!

Qin Yiyi didn’t want to go, but Mrs. Qin directly stopped her from going to the bedroom. Her voice was filled with impatience. “Do you think I want you to go? With your appearance, you will only embarrass your sister. I really don’t know what your father is thinking. You are eighteen years old now and you must get to know people. Now, are you going to go with me obediently, or do I have to get someone to drag you out?”

Her words successfully stopped Qin Yiyi’s footsteps.

She turned around and asked, “My father asked me to go?”

“Do you think so? Hurry up. I even made an appointment to play cards.”

In her heart, she began to complain even more about her husband, Mr. Qin.

Looking at her current appearance, standing there like a pile of mud. It was really embarrassing.

Why did she have to let this wretched girl appear together with Qin Jiatong?

However, Mrs. Qin really did not dare to go against Mr. Qin’s words when he was very serious.

Otherwise, only ghosts would come here.

Cursing silently in her heart, Mrs. Qin looked at Qin Yiyi with a face full of resentment, which made Qin Yiyi very puzzled. Both of them were clearly her daughter.

Then why was she so full of resentment only towards Qin Yiyi?

And that father of hers, why did he insist on her attending the 18th birthday party?

She remembered that in her previous life, she seemed to have gone too, but because of her health, she fainted before the party even started and could only rest upstairs...

In this life, since she was back, she naturally wanted to understand.

She glanced at Mrs. Qin. “Wait for me for ten minutes.”

Then, she ignored the other party’s reaction and went into the bedroom.

She was dressed in casual clothes and had her long hair tied in a ponytail.

She walked out of the bedroom casually and stood there gently. She looked youthful and energetic.

Mrs. Qin frowned when she saw this. When did this girl become so good-looking?

At first glance, she seemed to be even better looking than Jiatong!

A thought flashed through Mrs. Qin’s mind. She would never admit that Qin Yiyi was better than Qin Jiatong, whom she had personally raised.

Her voice was indifferent. “Let’s go. I’ll bring you to the beauty salon to get you dolled up.”

She wanted to take her to the beauty salon so that this daughter of hers wouldn’t embarrass her!

However, she had to remind the beautician later that she couldn’t make her look too good and steal Jiatong’s limelight.

When Mrs. Qin thought about this, she didn’t feel anything at all. It was as if she had forgotten that the person in front of her was also her biological daughter!

The two of them left the house one after another.

Qin Yiyi turned her head and got into the car. However, when she sat in the car, she almost died from anger through the car window.

“Qin Yiyi, where are you going?”

“Oh, I’m going home.”

She pushed out the motorcycle that she had specially asked Shang Jiuying to buy two days ago. She glanced at Mrs. Qin, whose face was livid, and shrugged. “The two of us hate each other, so I’d better go home by myself.”

“I’m afraid that if I anger you to death, someone will label me as unfilial again.”

Tilting her head, she gave Mrs. Qin a nonchalant smile.

Qin Yiyi, who was wearing a helmet, made a cool gesture to get on the motorcycle.. The motorcycle then drove away.
