Chapter 3: She Began to Understand

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yang Su doted on her adopted daughter very much, treating her as her own. Unfortunately, Little Han Xiang had grown up in a welfare home environment, and her character had many flaws. After she began to receive true love from a family, she became even more arrogant, unreasonable, and capricious. The only things she knew how to do were to eat, drink, and have fun… she also did not seek improvement, and became the laughingstock of the aristocratic circle in S City. 

Han Xiang was in her second year of junior high school at the age of 12. Not only were her grades at the bottom of the class, but she also often played truant. Her reputation was very bad. 

In the Han family, other than the truly innocent and sweet Ms. Yang Su, no one actually liked her. They were all wary of her, afraid that she would do something weird or stupid. 

The reason Han Zheng wanted to talk to Han Xiang was to test her attitude. If she did not want to study at school, she might as well ask for private tutoring at home. She did not need to play truant to go out and cause trouble, making Yang Su sad. 

Originally, he wanted to let his useless adoptive daughter go to private tutoring once and for all. However, who knew that Han Xiang would reject his offer after listening to him. 

His adoptive daughter, who usually didn’t seek to improve herself, now stood upright in front of Han Zheng and said, “Dad, don’t worry. I will study hard. I won’t let you down!” 

‘What a joke. What else can I do if I don’t study hard at twelve years old? I love studying!’ Han Xiang thought indignantly.

The original Han Xiang from the real world had received excellent compulsory education in the 21st century. She was very obsessed with studying. Han Zheng had nothing to say as he watched the newly ambitious Han Xiang leave the study room. 

As soon as Han Xiang left the room, she was ambushed by her second brother, Han Qi. 

Han Qi was only fifteen or sixteen years old. But he was already 5’10”. At this moment, he blocked her way and asked fiercely, “What kind of teacher did dad arrange for you? Did you agree to being tutored?!” 

Han Xiang was helpless. She did not understand why this boy would always employ such a fierce tone to talk to her. 

She recalled the identity of the second brother of the original heroine. He was a student of the top key high school in S City. That was quite impressive. 

“No, I want to study hard and go to the same high school as you. Also, if you want to talk to me; you can be gentler. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first!” 

Han Xiang said these two sentences gently, but it was like a bolt of lightning that struck Han Qi. 

What was this new version of Han Xiang?! This girl had always been rude and did not seek to become better in any way, shape or form! How did her temperament suddenly change? Her grades were terrible, and yet she still wanted to take the exam to be eligible to get into Chongde High School? 

At the dining table, only her adoptive father, Han Zheng, second brother, Han Qi, and adoptive mother, Yang Su, were present. Han Xiang once again announced her thoughts to everyone: she wanted to study hard and get into Chongde. 

Both father and son had very subtle negative feelings about it, so Yang Su was the only one who was happy to hear it. “It’s true. My baby is really amazing. She’s getting more and more sensible. I’m so happy.” 

Therefore, with Yang Su’s strong support, Han Xiang could return to school next Monday and pursue her dream.

Lying on the comfortably large bed, Han Xiang felt that being the daughter of a wealthy family was really great. 

With endless money, a mother who doted on her, and luxurious living conditions, all while being at this age full of hope and possibility, as well as the overwhelming aura and beauty of the protagonist, it was hard not to reach the peak of life! 

Han Xiang thought about it well. First, she would make her family love her, and in the future, she would live a more comfortable life. Then, she would work hard to study, and then she would take the entrance exam to Peking University, which she did not dare to dream of in her previous life. It was simply wonderful!

On the second day at home, Han Xiang received the news that Liu Qiang and the others had confessed to their crimes and were brought to justice. 

In that case, the fate of the protagonist of the original book had already been changed. She was now walking on a brand-new path. 

The original book did not describe much about Han Xiang’s wealthy family before she was twelve years old. Han Xiang could only rely on her instincts and educated guesses to eliminate the bad influence brought about by the original protagonist as much as possible. 

Han Xiang first obediently accompanied Yang Su to water the flowers, chat, and go shopping. She did not go out to hang out with her scoundrel friends. Yang Su’s happiness skyrocketed, indicating that she felt the warmth Han Xiang was trying to convey. 

Then, when Han Zheng was at home, she took the initiative to make tea, cut him fruits, and read books with him. She looked like an obedient girl. Han Zheng’s attitude also became gentle. The most he said was, “You’re starting to understand things.” 

As for Han Qi, who was in high school, and Han Yang, who was in junior high school, Han Xiang’s attitude had also changed from the usual tit for tat way of dealing with things. She had become a cute and obedient sister. Even when she was being mocked, she would still smile, causing the two brothers to feel embarrassed. Thus in turn, they began to display a gentlemanly demeanor towards Han Xiang. 

Under the nervous and suspicious gazes of everyone except Yang Su, Han Xiang finally ushered in her first day of school..
