The original owner's dream was always very simple.
Whether in an orphanage, a wealthy family, or after bankruptcy, all she wanted was to get good grades in the college entrance exam, get into a good university, and live a happy life with the person she loved.
However, Huo Ershao was no longer willing to be the "person he loved".
"Who am I? I'm the second young master of the Huo family, and my brother is Huo Xuanxi! Tongyang is very beautiful, and she was very kind to me when we were in the orphanage, but what is she now? Her family went bankrupt! How could she possibly be worthy of me?!"
Young Master Huo was both arrogant and insecure.
Upon his return to the upper echelons of society, he was terrified that others would look down on him if they knew he had grown up in an orphanage.
He then asked his elders to help him conceal his past and refused to communicate with Ye Tongyang any further, fearing that the truth would be revealed.
—The reason why he asked his elders for help instead of his own brother Huo Xuanxi was because the second young master Huo was afraid of his older brother.
Even though they were born of the same father and mother, when they met for the first time after more than ten years, he was so frightened by his brother's eyes, which were filled with a violent, cold, and malevolent aura, that he trembled all over, hung his head, and his legs went weak. He dared not utter a single word.
The head of the Huo family also looked down on his younger brother. He only took him back to the Huo family mansion, gave him enough money, arranged for people to protect him, and then never returned to the mansion.
Huo Ershao was sent to Mingfeng Noble High School.
At the same time, the original owner and Tang Nuoyu also got in.
The school's student body mainly consists of two groups: scions of wealthy families who pay extremely high sponsorship fees, and top students who receive substantial scholarships.
Young Master Huo paid his way in, while the original owner and Tang Nuoyu got in based on their grades.
The difference is that the original owner relied on his knowledge, while the latter relied on a precognitive dream to peek at the exam answers.
In the original storyline, as soon as the second young master of Huo returned to the Huo family, he cut off all contact with the original owner. He thought that the cold war meant a breakup, but he was shocked to see the original owner at school.
In order to expel the original owner from school, he pretended to hug the original owner in the classroom, and Tang Nuoyu led the teacher to catch them in the act.
Young Master Huo accused the original owner of seducing him, while Tang Nuoyu fanned the flames from the side. The original owner was speechless. The teacher, biased towards the student from the wealthy family, flew into a rage without distinguishing right from wrong and summoned the Cao family couple, giving them a severe scolding in front of them.
Cao's father was an abusive man. In just over three months after adopting the original owner, the original owner was beaten more than a dozen times, and each time he almost lost his life.
Adding to his frustration at going bankrupt, he became increasingly irritable. After losing face at school, he flew into a rage, dragged the original owner home, and without allowing her to explain, proceeded to beat her mercilessly.
The original owner fainted from the pain and was locked in the toilet. Cao's father stormed out to play mahjong. Cao's mother had also been beaten many times and had long been controlled to the point of being weak-willed. She did not dare to resist Cao's father at all.
She was forced to go out and work to earn money.
The original owner was imprisoned with injuries all over her body. Her body was already weak, and she slowly fainted inside.
At this moment, Tang Nuoyu learned through a precognitive dream that the gas stove in the original owner's house was not turned off, and the dry pot caught fire, which would cause a fire.
She deliberately hired someone to get Cao's father drunk and fall asleep outside, completely forgetting about his adopted daughter at home.
When Cao's mother rushed home after being notified by her neighbor, the original owner had already inhaled the toxic fumes from the fire while unconscious and had choked to death.
Huo Ershao lived a prosperous life, and Tang Nuoyu also climbed the social ladder step by step by relying on precognitive dreams.
Later they got married. Huo Ershao had many mistresses outside, while Tang Nuoyu lived the life of a wealthy socialite in fine clothes and jewelry. They each did their own thing, and both were satisfied.
In their decadent lifestyle, they had long forgotten the orphanage they lived in years ago.
There was once a girl who depended on them for survival.
