Ji Kang also stood by, raising his eyebrows in surprise.

　　"No way, you haven't even seen this? What do you usually eat then?" The laughter grew louder.

　　In the mocking eyes of everyone, I nodded calmly.

　　"When I was a child, I was sold by my family's nanny, who is Jiang Qingya's grandma, to human traffickers.

　　I grew up in the Miaojiang Mountains.

　　We didn't have these things there.

　　I ate sweet potatoes every day, and I could eat steamed rice twice a week." Ji Kang's face turned red instantly and said, "This can't be true.

　　Don't you eat meat?" "Meat? Do insects count? In the summer, we can catch cicadas and roast them, as well as grasshoppers." But there are also centipedes, snakes, spiders, and poisonous frogs.

　　I'm afraid to scare you if I say more.

　　Everyone's expressions changed from mockery to confusion, pity, and sympathy.

　　Ji Kang in his heart: What did I say? I deserve to die! Finally, someone started whispering nearby, "She's so pitiful.

　　Her family is so wealthy, yet she has to live such a hard life.

　　Jiang Qingya stole her life and still makes others mock her." Jiang Qingya burst into tears, crying loudly, and asked me with a trembling voice, "Huayu Ling, why do you talk nonsense and blame others? My grandma just didn't take care of you properly.

　　When did she sell you to the human traffickers?" Before I could refute, Zhou Wei, with a surprised look, said to Jiang Qingya, "Qingya, is your grandma really her family's nanny? Didn't you say that the two of you were switched at birth in the hospital? What's the truth?" Jiang Qingya couldn't speak, stuttering for a while, covering her face and ran away crying.

　　After a moment of hesitation, Zhou Wei followed her with a few female classmates.

　　When they left, the discussions in the cafeteria grew even louder.

　　Some classmates kindly handed over their dishes to me.

　　"Student Huayu, you can have this.

　　I've already paid for it."

　　"Ji Kang blocked the person and glared at him, and the person immediately walked away dejectedly.

　　Ji Kang ordered a large table of dishes and pulled me to sit at a nearby table.

　　'I'm sorry, Huayu Ling, I shouldn't have said those things just now.

　　I didn't know your background was so miserable.' Miserable? I don't feel that way myself.

　　I have my own abilities and can obtain what I want through my own capabilities, it's not miserable at all.
