299 Conflicting Yet Complicated Emotions

"I can't explain it clearly. It's just… a very strange glance." Gu Moli had always been conceited. She didn't think those bumpkins at her school in Jialuo deserved her either.

If they were not a hillbilly, they were an idiot.

In her mind, her prince should be someone who was handsome and affluent!

Since she had always been prideful without learning anything about love, she failed to understand what Blacksmith Wang's glance actually meant.

From her perspective, it was simply uncomfortable.

After being pointed out by her daughter, Zhang Lan began to think about it.

Blacksmith Wang was quite needy when it came to that 'thing'.

If he really dared to go after Moli…

Zhang Lan grew jealous and annoyed!

On one hand, she was very angry that Blacksmith Wang dared to set his sights on Moli!

On the other hand, Zhang Lan realized, with unwillingness, that her daughter had finally grown up. What was more, she turned out to be pretty. She had surpassed her!

She hid her complicated emotions and changed the subject. "Maybe you saw it incorrectly. Your Uncle Wang just looks a bit ferocious. By the way, Moli, I'll think of ways for your school. However, you probably can't get into that prestigious primary academy anymore. I'll ask other people for help and see whether you can get into another one. You should at least finish the third-year course and take the cosmic alliance exam or something."

"Alright."

Gu Moli was elated to know she still had a chance to remain in the city.

But…

Gu Moli added with much annoyance, "What a pity! I can't attend a prestigious school. Mom, why is Gu Yan's life so good?"

"Gu Yan? How is her life good?"

Zhang Lan's expression changed as soon as Gu Yan was mentioned. Her face was covered with irritation.

That girl wasn't her biological daughter. She had become a thorn in her heart that she couldn't remove.

Gu Moli continued, "Gu Yan is studying at the primary academy in the capital. She seems to be a third-year student too. I don't know what sort of backdoor she went through. How is she able to study there? Seriously, if she helped me with the test that day, perhaps I would've been able to pass! She's too ungrateful! She didn't even help me!"

The more Gu Moli spoke, the angrier she got until she kicked the chair next to her.

Zhang Lan gasped. She seemed to have been struck by lightning.

She grabbed Gu Moli's arm and asked nervously, "Moli, what did you just say?! Isn't Gu Yan in the special training force? Why did she go to the primary academy in the capital?"

"Mom, you're hurting me." Gu Moli pushed Zhang Lan away and proceeded, "It was the day that I went to the primary academy. I saw Gu Yan in the teacher's office. She seemed to be starting her first day back then."

"How? How is that possible?"

A severe unease rose up in Zhang Lan's mind.

Even before, Zhang Lan became worried after Gu Yan went to the capital to become a soldier. But at that time, she was comforted by the fact that Gu Yan would soon return to Jialuo after two years.

However, now… Gu Yan was studying at a primary academy.

If she got into the First Empire Academy as well…

Then, she would have the chance to stay here!!!

If one day the Bai family saw her!!!

Zhang Lan's legs weakened as she collapsed on the ground.
