Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Treating Asthma 2
The issue with the preliminary exam was resolved, and after Nianyang patiently accepted a few words of concern from her teachers, she took her report card and headed home.
When she reached the entrance of the Gu Family residence, she saw Gu Youlan standing in the yard, glaring at her with a sullen expression.
"Gu Nianyang, you bitch, how dare you frame me!" Gu Youlan rushed over, cursing furiously, her eyes filled with hatred for Nianyang.
"Oh, finally dropping the act, are we? My dear sister!" Nianyang asked with a mischievous smile.
"You..." Gu Youlan was taken aback, meeting Nianyangâs bright eyes that seemed to illuminate everything dark, a wave of inexplicable panic surged in her heart!
Nianyang squinted, "Gu Youlan, do you really think Iâm stupid? Havenât I known how many times over the years youâve tripped me up openly and secretly, making our classmates and relatives have a terrible impression of me? I just gave you a little retaliation back there, and you canât take it?"
"You, youâve known all along, so you just retaliated against me on purpose?" Gu Youlan was startled; she had always thought her actions were seamless, enough to fool this fool Gu Nianyang, not realizing the other had known everything all along. No wonder her behavior changed drastically recently!
Nianyang smiled innocently, "Thatâs right, after all these years of you making my life so difficult that I couldnât even lift my head, as your sister, I had to let you taste it too. Thatâs only fair, right?"
Gu Youlanâs face flickered between light and dark, gritting her teeth, "Fine, now that the facade is broken, I donât need to hold back anymore. Gu Nianyang, you just wait, letâs see who laughs last between the two of us!"
"Iâll be watching."
Nianyang stared directly at her, smoke seemed to rise between the eyes of the two girls.
At this moment, Wang Ying walked in from outside, carrying a basket, "Oh, Lanlanâs back. How was your exam? Did you pass the preliminary?"
At the mention of her exam results, Gu Youlan recalled the recent humiliation at school, and her face turned black with rage. She didnât answer Wang Ying.
Wang Ying didnât notice her eldest daughterâs discomfort, "Oh, what am I asking? Our Lanlan is so smart, she mustâve passed the preliminary, unlike some idiot who always comes last, shaming the family!"
As she spoke, she shot a disdainful glance at Nianyang, the disdain evident in her tone.
Nianyang couldnât help but smile, "Mom, are you so sure Iâll still be last this time? What if I did better than my sister?"
Wang Ying glared, "You, a clumsy pig, think you can compete with your sister? I think youâre losing your mind! Donât think by puffing yourself up here, youâll fool me; Iâm telling you, we donât have extra money for you to retake the exams. If you donât pass the preliminary, youâll stay home and work for me!"
"Mom, can you just shut up? Youâre so annoying!" Wang Yingâs words left Gu Youlan feeling completely embarrassed. She glared at Wang Ying and stormed inside.
"Oh, Lan, whatâs wrong?" Noticing her eldest daughter upset, Wang Ying quickly chased after her, halfway turning back to glare fiercely at Nianyang.
"You dead girl, why are you just standing there? Go cut the pig grass! Are you living here for free?!"
Cut pig grass?
Do they really take her for a servant?
Nianyang sneered and turned directly to head towards the Jiang Family residence.

Upon reaching the Jiang Family, Jiang Aiguo and Sun Li, who had learned about what happened at school from Jiang Tian, joyfully praised Nianyang from head to toe.
"Ah, Yangyang is truly amazing, no wonder sheâs my big niece from the Jiang Family. We must celebrate! Honey, get out the white flour we saved for New Yearâs from the cabinet; tonight weâll make dumplings!" Jiang Aiguo said cheerfully to Sun Li.
