“I ran into something yesterday, so I left first.” Zhao Bao’er chose to hide it.
A sneer appeared on Qi Ye’s lips, “Are you sick? Why does your voice sound weird?”
Zhao Bao’er coughed subconsciously, “I have a little cold. You can hear it all. Your ears are really good.”
Her throat hurt a little, and her mouth hurt a little.
When she thought of the strange taste in her mouth when she woke up, her face turned gloomy and scary.
“Where are you now? Are you in class? I’ll come over now.” Qi Ye said.
Zhao Bao’er said quickly: “Qi Ye, you don’t have to come over. I feel a little unwell today and have already asked the teacher for leave.”
“You should take a rest.”
“Um.”
Zhao Bao’er hung up the phone. The smile on her face faded.
Zhao Bao’er hurriedly left the room that made her sick, drove directly back home, and locked herself in the room all day.
Three days later, Bei’s mother, Ling Yue, returned from the Buddhist capital.
After hearing the news that Bei’s mother was back, Zhao Bao’er became excited. Bei’s mother went to worship the Buddha in order to thank the Buddha for sending her daughter back to her. It seemed that Bei’s mother was very attentive to Bei Yutang, but she only went because of Zhao Bao’er’s words.
In the past nineteen years, in the entire Bei family who loved Zhao Bao’er the most, it was Bei’s mother.
Bei’s mother’s elder brother gave birth to sons, and her first child was also a son. She had always wanted a daughter, so when she gave birth to a daughter for the second time, it naturally hurt her heart. Even the Ling family loved Zhao Bao’er very much. Because just such a girl was naturally rare for adults.
Bei Yutang’s appearance caught her off guard and made her unable to react for a while.
Ling Yue looked at the thin girl standing in front of her. She stood there with her head slightly lowered, with a timid look on her face. The first sight of her made her feel distressed.
But soon Zhao Bao’er’s forced smile and her sadness succeeded in taking away all her attention, making her ignore Bei Yutang’s existence.
Since when did Bei’s mother start to dislike Bei Yutang?
It was because she made jokes at banquets and embarrassed Ling Yue again and again, making her completely dislike this clumsy daughter.
Ling Yue is a woman who wants to be perfect in everything. Bei Yutang made fools of herself time and time again, causing her to be laughed at by a group of ladies. But Zhao Bao’er was just the opposite, adding glory to her face.
One was the daughter who made her face shine, while the other was the daughter who made her laugh at;
One was a well-educated daughter, while the other was a vulgar and clumsy daughter;
One was the perfect daughter in her mind, while the other was her daughter who was full of flaws.
The two of them were like a white swan in the sky and an inconspicuous ugly duckling.
Ling Yue’s heart tilted a little bit, and even in the end, she didn’t want to admit that she had such a daughter.
However, she forgot.
One was a person who had enjoyed higher education since childhood, while the other was a person who had never studied.
Bei Yutang didn’t understand what dining etiquette was, let alone what social etiquette was.
She only knew that while Zhao Bao’er, who was four or five years old, was playing the piano in a warm home, she was squatting in the back kitchen of the restaurant washing dishes in order to eat a bowl of hot porridge. Her pair of little hands were red, swollen, and ulcerated by the cold, but she didn’t dare to cry out in pain.
She only knew that when Zhao Bao’er was surrounded by her family and singing happy birthday, she was beaten and kicked by her adoptive mother, who even pulled off her clothes and abandoned her on the cold rainy night when she was only four or five years old.
She only knew that while Zhao Bao’er was sitting in the splendid classroom in class, while she was rummaging through the trash for something to eat.
