Quick Wear: Oh no, the lady is running away with the ball again

Chapter 271: Cold Academic God x Bright and Intelligent Fake Gold 2

In this life, she knew full well that Yun Nongying's return was beyond her control. The day the truth would be revealed would come sooner or later. But in this life, now that she had arrived, she would no longer live in the same agony as before, nor would she be driven by emotions to fight against fate.

Yun Nongying's identity is inherently tragic. She lost her family at a young age, growing up alone in an orphanage. Why would Yun Qian target such an innocent person? In her previous life, half of the suffering she experienced stemmed from her own obsession and impulsiveness, unable to accept reality.

Thinking back to her parents, she had thought they had given all their love to Yun Nongying in her previous life, but in reality, they had also put in a lot of effort to find her. It was just that she was immersed in self-pity at the time and never tried to truly understand their feelings and their position.

Besides, even if she didn’t look for him, Yun Qian wouldn’t care. After all, she came here for something else to do.

Thinking of this, Yun Qian looked out the window. The sunlight shone on the branches and leaves, casting mottled shadows on the floor through the curtains. Her eyes gradually calmed down.

She stood up and carefully scanned the environment she was in. Just when she was about to go out for a walk on her own, a small system popped up, and a huge floating screen appeared in Yun Qian's eyes, showing the Yun family's residence in full view.

The Yun family's villa is located halfway up the mountain. Yun Qian knew at first glance that the family was quite wealthy. After all, a villa halfway up the mountain, which is only built in an area where every inch of land is valuable... must belong to a wealthy family.

The scenery is beautiful, the lawn is meticulously trimmed, the exterior walls are an elegant milky white, and the garden is full of flowers of all seasons, exuding a low-key yet luxurious style.

Yun Qian's bedroom is located on the sunny side of the second floor. Upon entering, the white and pink color scheme creates a clean and dreamy look, like a princess's room in a fairy tale. The walls are painted a soft creamy pink, complemented by carved white furniture. A large cluster of soft velvet cushions graces the headboard, while the curtains drape gently, creating a tranquil and warm atmosphere.

In a corner of the room sat a Steinway grand piano. Its smooth black and white keys reflected the sunlight streaming in from the window, and its mirror-black body exuded a luxurious elegance. This piano was nothing special to Yun Qian; she simply bought it because she thought it was beautiful and wanted it, and her parents gave it to her. Yet, the piano was meticulously maintained, as if every detail revealed the Yun family's love for their daughter.

The shelf next to the desk was filled with various small items—crystal music boxes, limited-edition figurines, and a custom-made gold-leaf frame containing a family photo of four. Yun Qian stood in the center of the photo, wearing a fluffy princess dress and a bright smile. Next to her were her gentle-looking mother, her father, who had a rather serious smile, and a slightly shy boy—Yun Qian's younger brother, Yun Shen.

Yun Shen was three years younger than Yun Qian, a quiet but very well-behaved boy. Despite his young age, he always stood behind his sister with tact, unlike any other naughty child. Although the Yun family's parents had always been more protective and doting on Yun Qian, they were much stricter with Yun Shen. Yun Qian secretly thought that this was in line with the educational philosophy of old novels.

But overall, this "different treatment" did not create a gap between the siblings. On the contrary, Yun Shen had an almost dependent intimacy with his sister, and Yun Qian never hesitated to show his patience and tenderness to his younger brother.

The bedroom window is located near a small bay window. A soft cushion covers the windowsill, and a few magazines, which Yun Qian casually flips through, are placed beside it. Outside the window, one can see the fountain and swimming pool in the garden. In such a meticulously designed environment, Yun Qian's life has undoubtedly been one of care and protection. Her every move reveals an innate grace and confidence. After all, how could a girl who has been encouraged and praised for her every smile and smile lack confidence?

However, this pampered love was precisely one of the sources of her complicated feelings at the moment. She had never experienced this before, and the closest family situation she had ever experienced was probably the world of the Princess of Xia. But… that world was destroyed as soon as she crossed over, unlike now…

Yun Qian secretly recalled her usual behavior. After all, she now...more or less needs to imitate her former self to get along with the Yun family.

"Host! The Yun family is so big! Much bigger than the large apartment you bought!" Suddenly, a furry little head popped up from the side of the bed. The voice was soft but anxious, "You can't lie flat any longer! This is a youth campus drama, a chance to win-win in both career and love!"

Yun Qian tilted her head slightly to look at the system that had suddenly appeared. It was in the shape of a golden retriever, with innocent eyes and a rapidly wagging tail.

Looking at this fluffy cream-colored puppy, Yun Qian couldn't help but smile. Well, it's still so pleasing to the eye.

"System, when was Yun Nongying discovered by the Yun family's parents in the previous life?" Yun Qian sat at the desk, his fingers unconsciously turning a pen, his tone calm but with some thought.

"Let me think about it... Well, probably around this time next year." The system's voice sounded lazy, yet serious.

Yun Qian nodded, her lowered eyes concealing her fluctuating emotions. She leaned back in her chair, looking out the window at the sky gradually taking on the afterglow of the setting sun, a complex mix of thoughts welling up in her mind.

She thought about it and decided that she would try to get along well with Yun Nongying in this life. After all, making a lot of enemies is not a skill. The real skill is making a lot of friends.

The Selected Works of Mao never deceived me.

But even so, she still couldn't be sure of Yun Nongying's true thoughts. In her previous life, she was immersed in hatred and hostility, and never really tried to understand this girl who was taken back from the orphanage.

Perhaps Yun Nongying in her previous life wasn't as fragile as she thought. Perhaps she harbored unexpressed emotions—anger, resentment, even jealousy. Yun Qian couldn't say for sure, but one thing was clear: plans always needed to be adjusted based on actual circumstances.

She tapped her fingertips on the table, her eyes fixed intently, as if weighing the pros and cons. "If she's willing to treat me as a 'family member', if she can accept my existence, I can be her sister and treat her well. But if she can't..." Yun Qian shook her head slightly, a hint of an ambiguous smile curling up at the corner of her mouth.

"Then I won't force it. After all, not everyone can feel balanced about this kind of thing. If I were swapped with a member of the ordinary Yun family today, no one would call me a fake daughter. But precisely because the Yun family is so extravagant, people have forgotten that the fate of this 'fake daughter' who was swapped was also passive. It's just that the scripts always like to portray her as a person obsessed with profit and full of evil intentions."

"However, this kind of thing is always a little hard to explain. After all, in many operas, the parents of the fake daughter personally exchanged their children."
