When Lin Miao and her mother stepped out of the car, they were immediately met with the sight of a crowd gathered outside the Su family's house. For a moment, both froze in place, exchanging a glance that brimmed with jealousy so palpable it almost spilled over.
Who would have thought that so many people now fawned over Gu Zi? Though it was obvious that these weren't wealthy individuals, it was enough to ignite the envy burning in the mother-daughter duo's hearts.
The contrast was unbearable. The Gu family had become the laughingstock of the entire military compound, yet Gu Zi was now being sought after by this many people. The sheer irony of the situation was like a slap in the face to Lin Miao and her mother, filling them with an ache they could hardly suppress.
The tenants of the nearby housing complex were quick to notice the arrival of two new faces at the Su family's gate.
