Chapter 26: Chapter 26 “Brother… hug me

Chapter 26 -26 “Brother… hug me

The girl in front of me is called Hu Yun, and just like the original protagonist, she grew up in the small rural town of Lin’an County.

Lin’an County is a small place where many families make a living from farming, and households with savings over $100,000 are considered wealthy.

Like the original protagonist who used to live alone with her mother and had no stable source of income, she was considered poor.

The protagonist and Hu Yun lived on the same street.

They played together as children and were in the same class in elementary and middle school, so they were almost inseparable. In high school, they were still at the same school, but not in the same class, and their relationship became distant.

However, not long after starting the first year of high school, the two completely fell out.

The reason was simple. Hu Yun fell for a bully at the school, but that bully took an interest in the clean and reserved original protagonist and kept coming to her class to look for her.

Hu Yun believed that the original protagonist knew she liked the bully and went behind her back to seduce him, so she broke off their friendship and even rallied the whole grade to isolate and bully the original protagonist.

The original protagonist suffered from school bullying for about half a year until later on, Hu Yun’s father reportedly made a fortune in coal mining, earning several millions, and her family became nouveau riche overnight.

They moved from Lin’an County to Jiang City and bought a house here. Hu Yun’s father also transferred her to a private high school for the elite in Jiang City.

So, from then on, the original protagonist never saw Hu Yun again, and her school days finally got a bit better.

“I thought this figure looked familiar; I didn’t expect it to be you.”

Hu Yun walked up to Lu Sheng, standing somewhat condescendingly with her arms crossed, sizing up Lu Sheng.

“Why would you come to Jiang City? You couldn’t possibly be here for tourism.”

Hu Yun raised an eyebrow, casually mocking, “Oh, I know, your family is so poor, you must be here working during the summer break in Jiang City.”

“You’re here to apply as a sales guide at this store? Did you get the job? Should I buy a phone from you to boost your performance?”

“Uh, no, this little…” The young sales guide just wanted to speak when he was silenced by a look from Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng tilted her head, looking at Hu Yun.

The sense of superiority in front of her was almost overflowing.

Images flashed through Lu Sheng’s mind—the original protagonist being cornered and splashed with water in the school restroom, her desk graffitied with insults, her chair smeared with red paint, the slanders and libels on the school discussion board…

The original protagonist’s repressed and painful emotions clearly transmitted into Lu Sheng’s mind.

She lifted her eyelids, speaking indifferently, “Sorry, who are you?”

“You…”

As Lu Sheng spoke, Hu Yun’s prior words choked back down.

She took a deep breath, all smiles yet not smiling, “What now, Lu Sheng? Don’t you dare recognize me anymore? There’s no need to pretend not to know me.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t target you anymore; after all, we’re no longer on the same social level. Considering we used to play together as kids, if there’s anything you need, you can ask for my help.”

“Has your mom recovered from her illness? I heard before I left that she was giving up on treatment because you couldn’t afford it. Since we met today, I should do something.”

With that, Hu Yun took out her cell phone from her purse and peeled off its dirty, old phone case.

“You might not recognize it, but this phone case is from LV, originally bought for over $8,000. Though it’s old now, you could still sell it second-hand for $2,000 to $3,000.” frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

“I’m also switching to the latest ZE model anyways. We’re neighbors after all, I’ll give you this phone case. You can sell it to help out your family financially, it’s the least I…”

Before Hu Yun could finish, the phone case was suddenly snatched from her hand.

“What the hell are you talking about?!”
