Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

257 Secrets



“My Yan gege really cares for me, ” An Xiulan smiled and hugged the book.

“Weren’t you angry at him?” Han Zixin asked him.

“Yep, ” She reacted with a nod. “But I’m no longer angry at him. The more days pass, the more my anger disappears. Plus, him coming to see me already made me miss him more.”

“You are so gullible, ” Han Zixin muttered.

“Whatever!”

When school ended, An Xiulan looked at Han Zixin and said, “I’m going to the library to see Yan gege. Will you wait for me here? I will be back in a jiffy.”

Every day after school Gu Shangyan would be visiting the library and she knew that she would find him there. The library was ten minutes away from there on foot. When she reached the library entrance, she was tired and sweat was trickling down her forehead. As she took a step, she saw the laces of her shoes open. Seeing that there were stairs near the library’s exit point, she went there just to tie her shoelace. She bent down to tie them but as she raised her head, she saw Gu Shangyan hugging a slim and tall figure.

For a moment, she was too shell-shocked to even react. But when the face of the other person became clearer, she felt breathless.

It was Yoona and Gu Shangyan hugging away from everyone’s eyes.

Before she could react or speak, Gu Shangyan pulled out his vibrating phone from his pocket and accepted the call.

“Who is it?” Yoona asked him.

“It’s Lu Xuan. He is going to scold me again, ” Gu Shangyan muttered.

“Put the phone on speaker and let me talk to him, ” Yoona said and Gu Shangyan did so. “Lu Xuan, Shangyan and I are heading to the movies. Will you please make an excuse at home if your mom asks?”

“God, you are making me lie again, ” Lu Xuan groaned. “Things you make me do for your romance.”

“Thank you, Lu Xuan, ” Yoona said and pressed the red icon on the mobile. She looked at her boyfriend and said hooking her arm with his. “So, boyfriend, should we go on a movie date?”

Gu Shangyan smiled at her dotingly. An Xiulan ran inside the library when she saw the couple leaving. Why was she hiding from them she didn’t know.

However, when she left the arena and went back to Han Zixin, she realised that she was too numb to even walk. She didn’t know why she was feeling pain in her heart. Was she so bad that she didn’t even deserve a word of truth?

She smiled at Han Zixin despite the horror written on her face and went home with him. If she didn’t deserve to know something so important about her brother’s life what right did she have to ask them about it?

When she reached home, she was too stunned and hurt to speak. She lay in her room, not moving at all.

“Missy, what’s wrong?” Meimei asked.

“Nothing, ” An Xiulan forcibly smiled at her. “Can you switch off the light? My eyes are sensitive to light today.”

“Oh, I can switch off the lights but what about dinner?” Meimei asked her in a worried tone.

“Just call me for dinner when it’s time, ” An Xiulan replied weakly as she covered her head with duvet. She was so exhausted mentally and physically that she didn’t know when she fell asleep.

An Qinyan reached home late today. She saw Meimei leaving An Xiulan’s room and asked, “Did not you went to call Lanlan for dinner? Where is she?”

“Madam, Missy is asleep. I dare not wake her up, ” Meimei said. “She said her eyes were hurting and asked me to switch off the lights. Should I wake her up?”

An Qinyan sighed. “There was no one to control her at her dad’s place. I’m sure that she must have binge-watched dramas there all night and now her eyes are hurting. Don’t wake her up. It’s time for her periods too. Maybe, she is not feeling well. If she wakes up later, feed her something nutritious.”

“Sure, madam, “Meimei nodded her head.

An Qinyan walked to the winning table where the boys were chatting with Gu Yanxi. He looked at his wife and asked, “Where is our angel?”

“Your angel is asleep, ” An Qinyan replied. “What are you guys talking about?”

“Oh, Shangyan and Xuan were discussing their majors for college, ” Gu Yanxi said. “Lu Xuan is thinking about BBA or BBM while Shangyan has his heart set on B. Arch.”

“They are good courses. With their current rank, they can get into any good university in the China or abroad, ” An Qinyan replied.

“Did Xiulan say what she wants to do?” Gu Yanxi asked her.

“If Zixin went to Julliard, she will surely follow him there, ” An Qinyan sighed.

“Did she say this?” Lu Xuan asked with a distasteful look on his face.

“She didn’t, ” An Qinyan answered. “But isn’t it clear to all of you that her major will depend on Han Zixin’s.”

“She can’t go aboard for her studies, ” Lu Xuan suddenly said.

“Why not?” Gu Yanxi and An Qinyan quickly asked.

“Because….because she will be alone there, ” Lu Xuan quickly replied. “Who will look after her there? She is silly and stupid. She makes mistakes all the time. And mom do you think she has enough scores to get into that school? Fine, Han Zixin has talent. What talent does Teeny have except for making those short videos?”

An Qinyan smiled at her son. “Dear son, do you ever wondered that you are low-key demotivating your sister? Instead of saying good things, you always throw light on her negative points. What if she had heard what you said and began questioning her intelligence?”

“Mom—”

“Did you talk to your sister?” Gu Yanxi asked.

“Why should I?” Lu Xuan scoffed. “She didn’t even apologise to me.”

An Qinyan and Gu Yanxi didn’t say anything and let the boy learn his own lesson now.
