The Legitimate Daughter Doesn’t Care! - Chapter 17
Lou Xu, who had only been listening up until now, suddenly said, “Don’t act so unilaterally. If you don’t succeed, you should give Xu Xinduo something.”
Shao Qinghe then said, “Mhm. If so, let’s also add a deadline for it.”
The other people couldn’t understand whose side these two were on.
Zhen Longtao was short-tempered. Thus he declared, “If I am unsuccessful, I will send her Hermès bags with a time limit of three months.”

Xu Xinduo returned home after finishing her class. She was about to start reading a novel when Tong Yan video called her. After it connected, she placed the mobile phone on the phone holder.
Tong Yan was drying his hair with a towel when he greeted her. He took off the towel before looking at Xu Xinduo as he lazily asked, “Are you being bullied?”
“I’m too lazy to even be bothered by them.”
Tong Yan smiled. Although there was no filter applied in the video call, he still looked like a model on a magazine cover.
Then, he asked while staring at the screen, “It’s because of you that I have to participate in the competition. Otherwise, I would have been accompanying you at school.”
Xu Xinduo just replied coldly as a matter of factly, “I just want to bring honor to our country.”
Tong Yan sighed. At the beginning, he just asked her to help him take over his piano lessons. As a result, this lady went abroad and participated in piano competitions overseas.
During the Asian Piano Competition, he had become the hot favorite to win the championship.
He wore a plaid shawl on his shoulder as he sat in front of his mobile phone and stared at Xu Xinduo through the screen. He held his face with one hand and suddenly smiled.
“I never thought that one day I would go to school with you or sit at the same table with you.”
“What’s the use? I still have to watch you sleep even if we’re sitting on the same table.”
“No, that won’t happen. I’ll persevere for a couple of days more because I’ll arrive in the country soon.”
On Monday, Xu Xinduo felt that there was a special wave of attention on her when she walked into the school.
She felt like her every move was being watched.
She transferred here last Wednesday as a new student. When she transferred, she had remained low-key. She didn’t leave the classroom much so there were only a few people who paid attention to her.
The people who did pay attention were friends of Mu Qingyao. Other than that, no one cared about her.
However, gradually rumours about Xu Xinduo started to spread around Jia Hua International School.
Jia Hua international school was well known for its educational facilities. Most of the students of the Advanced Classes have good grades. However, there were also some students who were not good at academic studies.
Whether or not they did great academically, the students had one common characteristic— they loved to gossip.
‘Tired of studying? Let’s have a look at the gossip to ease fatigue.’
‘If it’s painful to idle around, just take a look at the gossip and get rid of your boredom.’
Therefore, in no time, the transfer student Xu Xinduo’s popularity skyrocketed.
The school’s mobile app known as the Campus App and Campus Debit card could be used for many things related to on school and off school. However, many people didn’t bother to use the card when the app itself could be used to purchase items at supermarkets, cafeterias and even borrow books from the library. These features made this app a must-have.
At the bottom of the main page of the Campus App, there was a Campus Forum. ‘Click here to see the latest news of Jia Hua International School’ was the title of the post.
‘Xu Xinduo was adopted by the Mu family because she resembled the Mu’s and had a poor life experience.’
This was the announcement made to the outside world— and it began circulating fast like wildfire.
