Exposed Her Daughter's Picture

Meanwhile, Chen Rumin who was already in her first class at noon, was looking at the picture of her daughter taken in her phone. She was sitting at the last row in the class while waiting for her students to finish answering their quiz.

Her daughter apparent blushing look made her look more charming with her dimple appear both on her cheeks and bashful smile. Chen Ziyi always had the beauty face like any other beautiful girl at her age had but her daughter seemed oblivious to that. No, it was actually her daughter was too affected by her comparison with Zheng Shuyu that made her feel inferior and not fancy her own beauty. But that was in the past. Now, her daughter seemed better.

Chen Rumin smiled in awe with how her daughter looks brighter and better than before. Although the difference was little, she could see the little change in both her daughter's complexion and temperament. She posted the picture on her WeChat with caption 'Her first meet-up with friends outside of school'.

Chen Rumin rarely posted anything on her wall and only commented on her friends' post. This would also be her first time exposed her daughter's current face to her friends. She previously had only Chen Ziyi's side profile picture and only show them to her close friends whenever they met. She felt sad that she could only boast to her friends how cute her daughter when she was child by showing Chen Ziyi's childhood photos.

Due to the complicated situation and unstable emotion Chen Ziyi was in, why would Chen Ziyi had the desire to take her own photo and to share to her friends. She did had Wechat and Weibo on her phone, but she never posted anything on them. Chen Ziyi's old complexion and temperament look would also allow others see how she was unhappy with her life, thus made her mother to think twice before to have such look exposed to her friends. She did not want them to have negative first impression towards her daughter.

Meanwhile, they did not think much about why Chen Rumin could not show Chen Ziyi's upfront picture as children like Chen Ziyi's age would sometimes had their own rebellious moment and they could totally apprehend to that. When they saw a recent post posted by Chen Rumin, they all saw her first exposure of the daughter that they only heard of.

They all knew Chen Rumin had daughter with her previous husband but she never exposed her daughter's life. All other mothers would be occasionally share their child's look or achievement to boast their good qualities. Considering that Chen Rumin herself rarely posted any story on her life on her feeds, they did not presume anything as it was her right to do so. Furthermore, she would still communicate to them by giving comments replying to their own posts, and actively replying to any of their private text.

When they looked at the picture posted, they were all awestruck with the dazzling girl in the picture. Although there were two girls in the picture, they could see which one who their friend boasted as the girl on the left would be the obvious one with the obvious genes she inherited from Chen Rumin.

Chen Rumin's close friends were all giving their comments to her posts.

[It's not fair. You already look like that, yet you have a pretty grown child who is that beautiful.😤]

[This is unfair! I also want a daughter!😤]

[Unfair! My daughter, please grown up faster. I want to boast to these aunties too😵.]

[I already had that moment haaha😏.]

[How your daughter went through that? My son went through such hard time just to pick his pant💁🏻‍♀️.]

[I bet you must feel excited accompanying her going through all that😍.]

[Yeah. We all knew you had dream such a long time to dress her up🤣.]

[No. She did the most choosing part. I only did grooming part and gave her encouragement. Hihi.]

[I always assume that your genes would give her similar look like you, at least. But she is clearly good looking!😣]

Chen Rumin's friends and acquaintances who did not see the childhood pictures of Chen Ziyi were not shocked as much as her close friends who get the chance to have such opportunity. They never saw Chen Ziyi's child look or side profile look or heard any stories other than her existence, so they did not have much expectation. So when they saw the picture, they all just felt 'what a beautiful daughter Chen Rumin got', and 'Is this the daughter that Chen Rumin kept hidden for so long?'

Compared to them, Chen Rumin's close friends felt quite shocked at the changes. They only saw Chen Ziyi's child photos and her side profile pictures, so although they presume that Chen Ziyi would obvious look good with her features inherited mostly from Chen Rumin's genes, but what they saw at this moment was much better than their expectation. They had seen Zheng Rong so they could see that there was least features that Chen Ziyi inherited from him, but she clearly get all the good genes from both her parents.

Chen Ziyi with her age right now still looked like any other teenager girl so she had that youth image plus her dimple. The dimple and bashful smile indeed gave her a different image from her mother. Both Chen Rumin and Zheng Rong had no dimple. Zheng Family also did not have one, so Chen Rumin thought it could be from her paternal family side.

While replying to the comments, she also few times glanced at her students. She then opened a private text sending a text to someone, [She was wearing your dress. She praised saying it was a good choice. She clearly love the ribbon.]

After a few minutes, she got reply.

[Really? I am glad that she loved it. How did she look to you?]

[Clearly much lovelier than in the picture]

[I wish I could see that]

[I will definitely bring her to meet you later.]

[I will looking forward to that time. Call me later when you here.]

[okay]

[miss you🧡]

Back to FuGui, they were waiting for the food until it was cooked in the hotpot when Lu Zixin arrived. "Ice cream treat later, Lu Zixin," Fang Peizhi said while taking sip the soup into her mouth. Hearing that, Lu Zixin was contemplating of that at first but since it was his fault, he just agreed on that. Although he was from a well-off family, but it was his family's way to do to educate their children to be wise in spending their finance so they put few constraint while they were still in school. He was going to save his money to buy a new upcoming game, but it was going to be lessened after treating his friends ice cream later. Sighing at his unfortunate situation, he took an empty seat next to Lin Chao-xing.

Lin Chao-xing and Fang Peizhi were giggling at Lu Zixin. An Huyin who sat on his left side put a meat on his plate. "Thank you for the ice cream, Zixin," An Huiyin bashfully teased. "Not you too, An Huiyin." Lu Zixin was going to let it go, but they kept going to tease him. "It's just an ice cream." It was Lin Chao-xing's turn to put a meat on his plate. "It will be not just an ice cream. It will be ..... eight ice cream!" Lu Zixin was taking his time to finish his sentences as he counted how much the people present in the room.

"I won't be late next time. Next time we met, I will make the person who late get a heavier punishment hehehe," He mischievously respond before take the meat into his mouth.

Looking at Lu Zixin back to his usual state, they stopped teasing him. The others only listened to them bickering while eating their meal. In fact, they could see that they were just joking around. Not a few minutes later, Lu Zixin asked something out of the blue.

"Say, Chen Ziyi. We heard that you choose to go LanShu for your high school for the next three year. Is that true?" The girls all look at Lu Zixin for being too wayward for that. They know how carefree Lu Zixin was, but they did not expected he could be so effortlessly asking the question that they had been want to ask Chen Ziyi. They all already unconsciously stopped their movement. Only Lu Zixin was still taking dishes onto his plate and casually ate his meat. Their eyes then slowly turned to see Chen Ziyi's reaction.
