“You dare to lecture me?” Bai Weiyang responded with a shriek, shocking the person working at the reception.
Bai Weiyang immediately took a few deep breaths and turned around, covering the speaker with one hand while lowering her voice. She then coldly said, “Zhang Lan, have you gone crazy?! I didn’t even ask you why you were causing a ruckus and stirring up trouble in front of the school’s gate, and yet, you come calling just to lecture me? Your daughter’s grades are practically garbage. She can’t even pass the basic test and embarrassed me. You still have the face to blame me right now?! Alright, I have done all that I can. Don’t call me anymore!”
Bai Weiyang hung up thereafter.
She felt quite annoyed.
Before, she just gave some money to Zhang Lan every year. She didn’t protest back then. After all, it wasn’t that difficult for her to save a portion of her pocket money for Zhang Lan.
Because every year, she received a lot of red packets from the elders in her family, especially from her grandfather.
But these few times, Zhang Lan’s requests were getting more and more absurd.
First, it was to bail someone out of jail, and then, she had to forge some grades… These two favors made Bai Weiyang, who cherished saving her face, suffer humiliation!
In the end, Zhang Lan still blamed her!
Bai Weiyang’s expression became twisted for an instant, but it didn’t last long.
She tidied up her clothes and bid farewell to the person working in the reception before walking towards the library.
Zhang Lan was stunned after getting hung up. Following such, the dissatisfaction in her heart grew.
Although she didn’t expect Bai Weiyang to call her mom, this girl didn’t even bother to show some respect after these few times of contact.
Her words were extremely harsh.
“This damned girl!” Zhang Lan was annoyed.
‘She is so ungrateful!’
‘If she didn’t switch the children at birth previously, would that girl have what she had today?’
At the same time, Zhang Lan pitied her younger daughter.
‘Would she really be unable to study at a prestigious academy?’
Zhang Lan was also irked with Bai Weiyang saying ‘your daughter’.
Obviously, she and Gu Moli were sisters.
However, when she tried to call again, Bai Weiyang didn’t pick up anymore.
Zhang Lan went back to the hotel. She pushed the door and found it was locked from the inside. There was no motion. Perhaps Moli was sleeping already.
Zhang Lan thought about it and knocked on the room next door.
Blacksmith Wang opened the door. “Lan, what’s wrong? Your expression seems so off.”
“Moli might be asleep. I’ll come and stay with you for a while.” Zhang Lan was quite irritated indeed. Her trip to the capital would have been for nothing if Moli’s transfer wasn’t resolved.
If Moli ended up attending an ordinary primary academy… it would be no different from studying at one in their hometown. Moli’s grades wouldn’t get her into the First Empire Academy in the end.
Simultaneously, Zhang Lan knew that even though Bai Weiyang was her own daughter, she would never call her mom.
Only when Moli had secured a good future would she have someone to depend on.
These years, Zhang Lan had enough of staying in the rural village. She felt annoyed every time she saw Gu Dagang’s rugged face and that retarded son.
This wasn’t the life she wanted!
If she wasn’t worried about the child-switching incident being discovered, she wouldn’t leave the capital.
Since the matter had happened a long time ago, it should be fine now, right?
Zhang Lan was distraught.
Blacksmith Wang was naturally happy that Zhang Lan came. He closed the door and couldn’t wait to hug her.
“Lan, are you okay?”
“Moli’s transfer is probably not going to work.” Zhang Lan sighed. “I was planning to find a job within the area while Moli studied here.”
Blacksmith Wang was suddenly shocked. “Lan, you’re not planning to go back to the village, are you?”
