Chapter 186 - Lurking
“I really can’t make it today, I’ll be busy and won’t be able to return tonight.”
When she saw her roommates’ disappointed faces, Zhong Nuannuan said, “How about tomorrow then? I’ll invite everyone for a meal together tomorrow night, and all of you can decide the venue.”
“Sure!” Yan Fangfang was the first to agree.
Mu Qingxuan and Gu Xiaoli also readily agreed.
Mu Qingxuan felt slightly confused when she saw that all the books Zhong Nuannuan arranged on the bookshelf were new. “Zhong Nuannuan, why are you getting new books again? I remembered that you already received your new books for Year 1 and Year 2 Senior back when you transferred over here last semester.”
“My mother threw all my books away.”
Zhong Nuannuan said this indifferently, but the other three girls got angry.
“What? She threw them away?! Zhong Nuannuan, are you sure that she’s your biological mother? I heard that she treats Zhong Qianqian much better than you!”
Gu Xiaoli grew up in Wan District. Her mother died early while her father remarried, and her stepmother did not treat her well at all. She had also gone through the tragic experience of having her books sold off by her stepmother when she was in junior high, and was forced to work in town to pay for her brother’s studies. Therefore, when she heard Zhong Nuannuan’s words, her intuition told her that Zhong Nuannuan was not her mother’s biological daughter.
Zhong Nuannuan smiled gently. “I’ve done a DNA test with my father before.”
