Chapter 2076: Twin Sister vs. Socialite Sister (Part 4)

"You’re really good with words!" Madam Xu playfully scolded her daughter, though the smile on her face didn’t falter for a second.

No woman can resist the praise of being told she’s beautiful.

Especially when the one complimenting her is her most beloved daughter.

Just then, Xu Zhiyao walked in looking a bit unhappy.

Seeing her sister and mother like this, she greeted them somewhat coolly and went straight upstairs.

As a mother, Madam Xu naturally sensed her daughter’s mood right away: "Yaoyao doesn’t seem very happy?"

Gu Shengyin shook her head: "She asked me to push her on the swing, but I was tired from reading and refused, so she might be a bit upset."

Madam Xu always knew the younger daughter was more spoiled than the older one and simply said, "Don’t pamper her too much, you’re the same age."

Even though they were born just a few minutes apart, Yanyan has always let her younger sister have her way, to the point where it pained her mother.

She wanted her child to live a bit more spoiled.

Gu Shengyin nodded: "Hmm, I’ll pay more attention in the future, Yaoyao should grow up too."

Her words surprised Madam Xu a little.

Back then, her daughter would never have said something like that; she always wanted to take impeccable care of her sister.

Seeing her mom looking at her like this, Gu Shengyin just pouted and said, "I want my brother to take me to the snow mountains too."

A while back, their brother Xu Zhiqian had a project to discuss in Yueben Country, and he initially said he could take both sisters with him.

Later, he changed his mind and could only take one sister.

Actually, both sisters wanted to see the snowy scenery, but Xu Zhiyan was sensible and didn’t pout or plead like Xu Zhiyao.

So in the end, unsurprisingly, it was the younger sister Xu Zhiyao who went.

Sensible and accommodating kids often get the short end of the stick at times.

Hearing her daughter talk like this, Madam Xu felt a pang of sourness in her heart.

Her strict husband preferred the lively, sweet-talking younger daughter a bit more, while she, as the mother, favored the sensible and tenacious older daughter.

She hugged her daughter, saying, "It’s okay, next year, mom will take you to see the snow."

Gu Shengyin smiled.

...

Now, the sixteen-year-old sisters are both in their first year of high school.

Not at the same school, but not too far apart.

It’s just that students from the two schools mostly don’t get along.

Xu Zhiyan attends Zhisuo High School, a nationally renowned high school where most students are top students and look down on those ignorant heirs from the neighboring Yingde High School.

On the other hand, the students at Yingde High School, where Xu Zhiyao is, hold no good feelings towards the pretentious top students with their noses in the air from Zhisuo High School.

In terms of reputation, Xu Zhiyan and Xu Zhiyao are both well-known figures in their respective schools.

It’s just that they’re famous in different ways.

At Zhisuo High School, freshman Xu Zhiyan not long after entering school won the Xia City Host Competition and the National High School Debate Competition.

Moreover, during the welcome party, this seemingly quiet and graceful girl stunned the audience with a passionate piano piece, "Croatian Rhapsody," becoming a renowned figure in Zhisuo High School.

At the same time, Xu Zhiyao also became a notable figure at Yingde High School.

Because during military training, she was already involved with the student council president of Yingde High School.

Even more, in just over two months since school began, more than a dozen students have had conflicts because of her.
