A-Miao looked back and saw Zhou Xiao staring at her with tears in her eyes.
"My mom told me that you are going to live in a rich family. Can't we see each other in the future, can we?"
A-Miao smiled, "Yes, I will come back for you!"
"Really?" Zhou Xiao asked, "You will be pampered in the future. Will you still be my friend?”
"Don't talk nonsense. I will always be me." A-Miao hugged her. "Take care of my house. I will come back!"
Zhou Xiao nodded hard and guaranteed, "Hmm! I will. I promise you that the house will be clean when you come back."
The car slowly drove out of the dirty and narrow street. A-Miao looked back at the small building which looked farther and farther and suddenly became scared.
"Don't worry. We will take good care of you." Xia Haixin looked at her and said to the driver, "Go to the mall."
When Yao Lili understood what he meant, she became dissatisfied, "She can wear Xia Wan and Xia Mei's clothes. It is not urgent, go home first."
"She is too thin, and those clothes are not suitable for her." Xia Haixin warningly looked at her, "Don't forget who this is for."
Yao Lili turned around and said nothing. A-Miao frowned and thought, "What are they going to do..."
Probably because Xia Haixin had warned her, Yao Lili's attitude was not bad in the mall, and she bought a lot of things for A-Miao. Then the car went to the top of the mountain, the rich area of City S.
In the luxuriously decorated hall, A-Miao's thin body seemed out of place. When she came here with her mother's cremains a few years ago, she didn't even enter the door. Now she was sitting on a sofa, facing an old man who was looking at her with dissatisfaction.
"You are not like your mother at all." Xia Yongqiang frowned.
The girl in front of him looked black and thin, with a pair of dull eyes which looked so dim. If he had not done a DNA test, he could not believe that she was Xia He's daughter.
"Dad, A-Miao had a tough life before. Now we will take good care of her and she will look like my sister." Xia Haixin winked to Yao Lili who added immediately. "Yes, Dad, I will dress her up!"
As Xia Yongqiang heard that the name of A-Miao, he frowned badly, but he did not say anything. He waved his hand and let her leave, "Take her to her room. Have a bath and change her clothes. We will have dinner together."
A-Miao was brought upstairs by the maid. The decoration of the room was very beautiful, and the things inside looked new. But the newer they were, the more anxious she felt. Taking a small box out of her backpack, she went into the bathroom.
"I don't look like my mother?" A-Miao looked in the mirror, washing and cleaning her eyes with a smile. Soon, a white face appeared in the mirror, and a pair of big phoenix eyes winked, inadvertently emitting a charming temptation.
Touching her face, A-Miao gradually recalled her childhood memories through the mirror.
The weak woman was lying in bed, and her face was white without a trace of redness. A little girl was looking at her and crying at the bed. The skinny girl was less than ten years old. Even though her face was full of snot and tears, she looked absolutely beautiful.
"A-Miao, don't cry!" The woman touched her face. "I have already taught you how to change your face that your dad taught me. Your face is too dangerous, cough-cough."
The little girl threw herself into the woman's arms, "Wow! Mom, Mom, stop, I... I haven't learned yet, you have to continue... continue to teach me."
"Hey, listen to me." The woman tried to smile. "Learn to protect yourself and put on makeup. Your eyes resemble mine a lot. The Xia family will definitely exploit you."
The little girl cried, shaking her head and calling her mother. The woman touched her head and said softly, "Although I don't know why you have learned such a powerful skill after two years' missing, you must promise me, you can't do bad things. You have to be a person who can act worthily of yourself... cough-cough..."
"A-Miao! A-Miao!" The screams outside the door interrupted her memories. A-Miao rubbed her face and took back her tears. She shouted, "I am changing clothes."
Yao Lili muttered and shouted, "Come on, we are waiting for you for dinner!" Hearing no sound outside the door, A-Miao began to smear her face until it turned dull yellow and her eyes became lifeless. Then she took a deep breath and said, "Mom, look. They found me even I have disfigured myself." "Don't worry!" She clenched her fists and cheered herself. "No matter what they want, I won't let them succeed!" Going downstairs into the dining room, she found a few more people. One of the girls, who was at the same age as she, shouted with anger as soon as she saw her. "She is so ugly. How can she marry Brother Bai!?" "Marry?" A-Miao caught the point. No wonder they had to take her back. They wanted to sell her! Xia Yongqiang pounded the table, "Sit down and eat." A-Miao did not listen to him. She asked, "I still want to make it clear. Since you didn't recognize me
"Are you familiar with that Bai XX?" Xia Wan bit her lip, "We just have known each other since we were young." "So because you don't want to marry him, they have to take me back to be a substitute!" A Miao quietly questioned, "Then you don't like him?" "Of course not, I have always regarded him as my brother." Xia Wan looked embarrassed, "But..." A Miao didn't wait for her to finish speaking. She stood up and stretched herself, "Let's talk about it later. Anyway, you won't let me go. I am going to sleep!" Xia Wan did not expect that A Miao just left like this, and when she reacted, A Miao had already gone upstairs. "Is she really so stupid?" Xia Wan frowned. "Or she really needs money?" Thinking of the information that the Xia family had obtained through the investigation, she guessed that A Miao was really willing to get married because she didn
In an instant, the room fell silent. Shen Xinglan looked at her fiercely, "Say it again." A Miao suddenly realized that she was a hostage at this moment, so she huddled. She felt that the man in front of her was exuding an aura that he was going to eat her, so she took a few steps back and hid behind those who caught her. "Cough-cough, lady..." Shen I asked nosily, "Did our Boss use your Dur*x?" As soon as his voice fell, he felt that his boss's sinister gaze swept over. Everyone quietly retreated, leaving only Shen I, who was digging his own gave, and A Miao, who was unclear about the situation. "Shen II, call Shen III to come back." Shen Xinglan smirked and said, "Shen I will replace his position." A bunch of people dragged the struggling Shen I to leave, and A Miao would like to go with them very much. "Did I allow you to go?" The door in front of her closed. A Miao thought for a
When Yao Lili found A Miao, she was playing with a treadmill in the gym. "Who allowed you to run around?" Yao Lili dragged her off. "Do you know that I have been looking for you for an hour?" When she finished doing her body care, she could not find A Miao. She thought that the girl had run away until the waiter at the door told her that no one was out. Then she began looking for A Miao. "I'm lost." Before Yao Lili got angry, A Miao looked at her pitifully and said, "I thought you abandoned me!" "I will leave you alone if you run around next time." Yao Lili also felt relieved. "Come on, let's cut your hair." A Miao peacefully followed Yao Lili. After returning to the villa, Xia Yongqiang checked her for a long time as if she was a commodity. "She finally looks white, and her eyes should be done as well." Xia Haixin added. Yao Lili pouted, "She cannot be
Wearing a pained look, Xia Wan was about to speak when she spotted A Miao. She immediately plastered a smile on her face and said, "Hurry over, A Miao!" A Miao walked over and stopped in front of them. She stared fixedly at Bai Youran. "Who is she?" Bai Youran was unhappy that someone was disturbing them. "I'm your future fiancee," A Miao said, beaming. "Please take good care of me." Bai Youran was momentarily stupefied before turning to look at his beloved woman. "Wanwan! Is your grandfather really breaking off our engagement?" "No, Youran... Please don't be like this..." Xia Wan's eyes were glistening. "No name is ever specified in the engagement. This is my cousin who has just recently returned. Grandfather said... Grandfather said that she will marry you." Bai Youran enveloped her in a tight hug. "I won't agree to this! Rest assured that I'll go home and talk to m
"Go, Boss is inside." After A Miao hung up the phone, she found an excuse to go to the supermarket to walk out. The man waiting for her was the former driver. He took her to a restaurant that looked very luxurious. "No one is here?" A Miao entered an antique room and looked around. Shen Xinglan sat on a sofa. He was more interested in making tea than A Miao. "I can't steal it." A Miao sat opposite him. For the first time, she was so close to Shen Xinglan. She found out that this guy looked so pretty... like a Chinese painting. He had perfect eyes and eyebrows which were so exquisite as if they were painted and his face was amazing and stunning. Especially at this moment, his hands were in the water vapor and looked like they were carved. He was so vivid like a perfect gentleman. "Pfft!" A Miao secretly rolled her eyes. "A perfect face could not turn a psycho into a better man."
Since Master Xia had wanted her to go, A Miao had to go shopping with the sisters. Every time Xia Mei bought a new dress, she would give A Miao a triumphant look. A Miao only saw the clothes she tried on in magazines or on TV, but these were meaningless to her. Only Xia Wan passed her a dress when she found that A Miao had not spoken a word. "Come on, try this on!" A Miao didn't take it. She said, "No, I don't buy it." "It's OK, it's my treat." Xia Wan smiled and said, "We are sisters. Don't stand on ceremony." Xia Mei grabbed it from her, "Sister, why are you paying for her? I will take this one." "Xia Mei..." Xia Wan wanted to take it back but A Miao stopped her. "You can take your time and I will wait for you over there." Seeing her pointing at the rest area, Xia Wan thought for a while and said, "Well, you can go to the hotel upstairs. There is a very good dessert
"It's hot!" A Miao lay on the ground and her face was ruddy. She resisted the urge to touch her body. She had never had this kind of feeling, but she knew that it must be due to the pungent smell in the air. "Are you alright?" A man's voice suddenly sounded out of the door. "Who are you?" A Miao wanted to lock the door, but she was so weak that she couldn't stand up. "Don't come in." As her voice died away, the door was pushed open. Shen I quickly dragged her out with his hand covering his face. "Have you died?" A Miao felt that someone was kicking her. When she opened her eyes, she saw Shen Xinglan looking at her with a sneer on the sofa. "Boss, shall I give her an injection?" A man squatted down beside her, holding a needle in his hand who A Miao had never seen before. She struggled to stand up. "You... what are you doing?" "What's that look on your fa
