Gu Zhang was in the office when his phone buzzed. He picked up the phone and before he could say anything, he heard Xingren's sobbing voice from the other side.
" Xin Xin, what happened? Why are you crying like this? Did soone said anything to you?" He asked, worried at her calling him while crying.
Xingren sniffled and said, " Dad, I...can't take this anymore. Xu Nuan...she-
" Xu Nuan? What did she do this ti?" He asked with an exasperated sigh.
" She has chosen my departnt as her major. I don't understand why can't she leave alone? Despite my several attempts, she continues to hate and now she has even co to my college."
" She even talked to rudely in front of my friend. She didn't even acknowledge as her sister, what can I expect from her? I am afraid that just like Grandfather, she will do the sa. Dad, if everyone finds out that I am not a Gu and just an orphan, I won't be able to attend this college." she sniffled while explaining to him all this.
" I don't want to be humiliated for sothing that I didn't even do. Was it my fault that we got exchanged? It's not like I wanted all of this to happen?" She said with a weak voice.
She was indeed innocent. When this has already happened, what is the need for all of this to be fixed? Can't they just live as they were living till now? Everything was fine and happy.
Gu Zhang felt guilty upon hearing her words. It was not her fault yet she was being blad by the Old Gu for sothing like this.
" Xingren, what can I do? You know that girl, she isn't even listening to her grandmother or mother, let alone . Didn't you see how she behaved a few days ago when we talked?" he sighed while removing his round tal, thin-frad golden glasses from his nose.
" Dad, so are you not gonna do anything about how she entered college? If soone finds out that the daughter of the Gu family cheated to take the scholarship, people will loathe you for not looking after her and teaching her anything."
" She ca from an orphanage, there was no one to teach her right or wrong. You can't give up on her like this," she said while waiting for his response.
Gu Zhang went silent. Thinking about her words, it does seem to be right. It will be only him who will be blad in the end and not Xu Nuan.
" Okay, I'll see what I can do. For now, don't worry and study hard. Don't think about all that stuff."
Xingren nodded and hung up the phone. She looked at her phone and smiled, " Xu Nuan, do you think you deserve to be in the sa space as ? I lost my apartnt to you, but I won't lose this scholarship. It was mine, I worked hard for it. I won't let you get away with it so easily."

After the class ended, Xu Nuan went to the office since she still needs to earn her living. The music video was bombing the internet and the girls were going higher and higher on the charts.
Not only that, because of their sudden success, the number of reality shows offered has skyrocketed. Thanks to this, she was barely getting any spare ti for herself.
" I don't know if it's a good or a bad thing for that they're doing this well," she muttered and sighed while going through the offers and short-listing them for the girls to see.
Unlike other managers, she likes to give a certain amount of freedom to her artists. She doesn't want to make their debut period a hell but wants them to work hard and enjoy this feeling, the feeling to be loved.
She doesn't want them to turn into another Queens, she doesn't want them to be destroyed the way they got.

A week passed in a blink as she juggled between college and office work. After the first day, Xingren didn't talk with her, and both parted ways after their classes.
Xu Nuan also didn't get any ti to mingle with others as she needed to take calls from the directors or their assistants to discuss the work.
It was finally the day she was thinking hard about. Saturday, the day she promised Han Zihao to take him sowhere with her.
~Ring, Rinngggg~
" Arghh, why is it morning already?" she groaned when her alarm went off. Annoyed, she put it off and checked the ti. It was five in the morning.
She stared at the white ceiling above her in a daze, rembering what day it was.
She stayed silent for a while, staring at nowhere. This was the most hateful day of her life, or say...most regrettable day.
And the most arduous task is to smile on this day because she doesn't want to make it depressing for everyone. She is not allowed to do so.
" Let's go Xu Nuan, you have things to do." she sighed and pulled herself off the bed to get on work.
After brushing her teeth, she went straight to the kitchen. Yes, Kitchen.
Today she was going to attempt sothing she has never done. Make breakfast.
She looked around and realized how empty and spotlessly clean her kitchen is. It was because she has never made anything. She always used the microwave to heat the delivery food or made instant noodles, that was all.
Although she bought so utensils and stuff to cook so ti ago, she never used them. They were as useless as her single earring, whose other one has been lost and still keeping it safe, hoping to find it soon enough.
" Let's do this Xu Nuan, you can do this. Since I am now in Xu Nuan's body, this body must have rembered her cooking skills, right?" she muttered and opened her fridge to bring out bread, mayonnaise, and so vegetables. Thankfully she bought all the ingredients she needed yesterday to do the cooking.
Now she only needs to cook. Simple.
-
"Let's go safe and make a sandwich."
" Should I make so fried eggs to go with as well? Or egg fried rice?" she wondered.
Without wasting any ti, she put the pan on the stove and put so oil on it. " Now I just have to carefully crack it and dump it in the middle, that's it." She clasped her hands and picked up the egg to make a fried egg.
Everything was well planned…..However.
" Why is this happening to ?" she cried in dismay seeing two of her eggs who lost their lives before they could make it to the center of the pan. She cracked them 'carefully' against the edge of the pan but every ti they got severely wounded and couldn't make it to the destination.
Looking at her ssy kitchen, that too when she didn't even make anything, she sighed and facepald herself, " Jiang Yue, you're worse than anyone. Even Xu Nuan's body can't help you in cooking." she sighed deeply, thinking what to do next.
She sighed thankfully that she didn't try to make egg-fried rice. Otherwise, who knows what would have happened.
