Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle-Chapter 254 Rift
At home….
“It’s dinner time!”
Lu Xuan came to the dining table when he heard his mother calling for dinner and as he saw An Xiulan sitting at the table quietly eating her dinner, his rage came back. He put food on the plate and returned to his bedroom, not sparing anyone a glance. He was throwing a tantrum and it was clear to everyone.
“What’s with these two?” Gu Yanxi asked as he looked at Gu Shangyan. Since An Xiulan’s head was on her plate, everyone could assume why Lu Xuan was throwing a tantrum. The twins fought once again.
Gu Shangyan looked at the two of them and shrugged. He had been seeing that the two of them were very quiet and didn’t bicker at all. He didn’t pay much attention to them as he was chatting with Yoona at that time. He didn’t realise that these two fought again. It wasn’t like it was the first time these two fought.
“Lanlan, did you fight with your brother again?” An Qinyan asked as she looked at her daughter who was too quiet.
“Mom, you say as if I fight with him all the time, “An Xiulan grumbled.
“Well, you do, “An Qinyan said as a matter of fact. “Most of the time, you fight with him for silly things. What did you do this time?”
“Mom, I’m not that silly to start fights with him all the time, “An Xiulan retorted. “Why don’t you ask him? We didn’t fight about silly things. Zhou Liling–“
“It’s Zhou Liling again, “An Qinyan sighed. She couldn’t understand what was wrong with her daughter. “Lanlan, it’s been about a year and a half since that thing. Let it go now. You both were young. What Liling did to Shen Yue is indeed cruel but she tried to make it up to her. She is a teenage girl and she will make mistakes and learn from them. Just like you. You weren’t an easy child either but you are no more the same girl you were two years ago. You were given a chance and Liling deserves the same chance too, don’t you think so?”
An Xiulan gaped at her mother. She wasn’t the same girl and no one knew better than her. It wasn’t that she didn’t give Lily any chance, she did but each time that girl proved that she was born evil and incorrigible. “Mom, I’m not intelligent but I’m not that silly either. Lily is not a good girl. Can’t you see she wants Lu Xuan all to herself?”
Gu Shangyan sighed. Same old topic and same old discussion. “Crybaby, we love you the most. No one can take your brothers away from you.”
An Xiulan looked at these people and sighed. They did not understand what she wanted to say. They are eldersplaining (like mansplaining) to her. Fine, they were older and smarter than her but what she was trying to say wasn’t wrong either. It was just that they didn’t want to listen to her because according to them, she was just petty.
Thus, she left her food and went to her room and shut the door loudly. 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com
“Xiulan…”Gu Yanxi tried to go after her.
“Yanxi, take your seat and eat, “An Qinyan said in a strict voice. She had enough of teenage dramas. “We can’t always take her side just because she is the most pampered one in the family. “
Gu Yanxi appeared disturbed hearing his wife. “She hasn’t eaten food.”
“Then, she should have left like that, ” An Qinyan said. “More than anything, I hate children when they throw tantrums using food.”
“She is young. Why don’t you ask Ah Xuan–“
An Qinyan cut him off and said, “Lu Xuan is right this time. Let her sulk and understand that she was wrong to fight with her brother. And Shangyan, you will not mediate between the two this time. I don’t understand why this girl feels the need to be this possessive. Are we not loving her enough?”
It wasn’t a surprise that An Xiulan was mad and sad when her little brother called her later that evening and asked her to come to meet him. She jumped at the opportunity. She told her mother that she wanted to go to her father’s house and An Qinyan didn’t stop her.
Therefore, the next day when school ended, An Xiulan went straight to the Lu family’s house.
Her innocent step to live with the Lu family intensified the fight between the twins. Although it was not her intention to go to the Lu family house to ignore Lu Xuan, she didn’t exactly explain that Lu Xun had started preschool and he wanted his Jiejie to drop him on the first day.
In everyone’s opinion, An Xiulan was being a stubborn and willful girl.
Lu Xun’s first day at preschool was a horror. He cried all day there. He was a pampered kid and when he didn’t see his family for a few hours, he didn’t stop crying. He refused to even spare a glance at his parents who dropped him at the school.
Not even for a moment that day, he left An Xiulan’s hand when he returned from school. Seeing the boy crying so pitifully and sticking to her, she didn’t have the heart to go away from him. So, she had to stay for another night at Lu house and Lu Zhaolin informed An Qinyan that he would drop An Xiulan at school the next day.
It took Lu Xun a whole week to go to preschool while crying. So, An Xiulan returned home after seven days.
All this while, the rift between Lu Xuan and An Xiulan had only widened.

The next week the school started once again.
Lu Xuan was in his class when a staff person came and announced his name. Actually, today he had forgotten to bring his lunch box with him and so his lunch box was sent to school by the driver and he had to go to bring it himself.
When he came inside the class, he passed Gu Shangyan his lunch box and sat on the seat.
Song Xueyun, who was collecting everyone’s homework, furrowed her brow when she saw that Lu Xuan brought his lunch box himself and it wasn’t An Xiulan who brought it. This reminded her that she hadn’t seen An Xiulan the whole week hanging out with her brothers.
Before she could ask any questions, Gu Shangyan looked at Lu Xuan and said, “You passed Xiulan’s box to her.”
“I did not, ” Lu Xuan shrugged. “She always makes Xueyun eat her lunch. What was the benefit of giving it to her? Since she won’t come to this class and I don’t have time to go to hers, I sent her box back with the driver. Moreover, she is staying at dad’s. I’m sure that she will be bringing her own food.”
“Did you talk to her?” Gu Shangyan asked.
“Why should I?” Lu Xuan raised his brow. “It’s not my fault that she fought with her own brother for an outsider.”
“Outsider?” Gu Shangyan repeated the word.
“She fought with me for who? Xueyun?” Lu Xuan scoffed. “I won’t talk to her until she apologizes for accusing me of not treating my friends right.”
Song Xueyun was rotted there in shock, humiliation and hurt. Lu Xuan called her an outsider? Did he mean she wasn’t even a friend to him? She turned back trying to stop her tears and sat on her bench. Actually, she shouldn’t be hurt. She had been trying to keep her distance from the twins but she had never expected that she would be hurt this way once again.
When she was sitting at her desk, the boy sitting next to her tapped on her shoulder.
“You aren’t going to ask me to scram, ” Li Sicheng raised his brow.
“You earned the seat. What can I even say ?” Song Xueyun shrugged her shoulders trying to be indifferent.
“What’s up with you?” Li Sicheng raised his brow at her.
“Nothing, ” Song Xueyun coldly replied.
“Do you see the new rumour on the forum?” Li Sicheng asked her.
“Don’t you have too much free time on your hand these days?” Song Xueyun asked.
panda nOvel.cO,m Li Sicheng laughed. “All thanks to you. Alert from the student of class 10. I’m teaching her cousins who are in middle school too. I’m getting good bucks for doing what I like. I have more time on my hand to study now.”
“Good for you, ” Song Xueyun replied.
“According to the rumours on the school forum, we both are dating, ” Li Sicheng replied. “I wanna ask with whose defective eyes they think we are perfect for each other.”
“What do you say?” Song Xueyun asked him.
“You heard me right, “Li Sicheng replied. “I wanted to clear the rumours but I realized no one will believe me.”
“Li Sicheng, “Song Xueyun called his name. “I will do anything in return if you don’t clear the rumours please.”
“Dude …” he gaped at her. “You are not asking me to be your fake boyfriend, are you?”
She gave him a small smile.
“Oh fuck! You are serious.”
