Aunt Mei knocked on the door and saw Lu Jiaxin. She introduced herself first, then said that Gu Xiuxiu was back and asked her to come downstairs to talk.

Lu Jiaxin found that she had a gentle expression and a faint smile on her face, which made people feel comfortable. However, she was dressed very traditionally, with a bun, a long dress with long sleeves, and an emerald green bracelet on her left wrist. Judging from her clothes and demeanor, she was a very disciplined person.

If someone respects me an inch, I will respect her a yard. After thanking her, Lu Jiaxin followed her downstairs.

Seeing her clothes, Gu Xiuxiu asked with a smile, "Who bought you this dress?"

Today, Lu Jiaxin wore a white T-shirt with a light green skirt. This outfit is very youthful and suitable for her age.

Lu Jiaxin said: "I buy all my clothes myself and match them myself after I get home."

Gu Xiuxiu had investigated her and knew that no one taught her and she must have figured it out on her own. She could only say that this was a gift from heaven. She asked Lu Jiaxin to sit in front of her, and after taking a closer look, she said, "You look good, but you have damaged your vitality and you still need to replenish it."

Lu Jiaxin shook her head and said, "I told the doctor that I can eat bird's nests and fish maws, but I shouldn't eat ginseng and deer antlers because they have strong medicinal properties. My body can't handle it."

"My doctor knew I was coming to Hong Kong City, so he specially prepared a menu with many things I should avoid. Cold foods like crabs, shrimps, and scallop and duck soup for lunch are allowed, but they should be eaten in small amounts."

Gu Xiuxiu frowned and looked at Hong Gu, and asked, "Did you ask the kitchen to prepare crabs, shrimps, and scallop and duck soup for Jia Xin at noon?"

Hong Gu didn't expect that Lu Jiaxin actually knew pharmacology. She was in a passive position now. She gritted her teeth and explained, "Mr. Lin got a batch of fresh seafood. I went there right after I received the call. I forgot to remind my cousin not to eat cold food."

Gu Xiuxiu thought she had really forgotten, so she told her to be careful, and then asked about He Yanyan: "What did she say that made you so angry that you hit her?"

Lu Jiaxin was very satisfied that she didn't blame her. If she had been blamed for her actions right away, she would have just picked up her bag and left.

Lu Jiaxin pretended to be surprised and said, "How could I hit Miss He? Who is talking nonsense?"

Gu Xiuxiu knew there was something fishy going on. Based on the information she had, although Lu Jiaxin was young, she was very thoughtful and would not act so childishly.

At Gu Xiuxiu's request, Lu Jiaxin recounted the whole process in detail: "Aunt, when she came to see me, she was the second daughter of the He family. I had never met her before, so how could I have asked her to take me to buy clothes?"

If she was my aunt's granddaughter, it would be understandable for her to be close to me because of the blood relationship. But she and He Yanyan were not related at all, so there must be something fishy about her enthusiasm.

Gu Xiuxiu looked at Hong Gu and frowned as she asked, "Jia Xin and Yan Yan didn't fight. Yan Yan's injury was an accident. Why do you say it was Jia Xin's fault?"

Hong Gu lowered her head and said softly, "Madam, the second young lady is kind-hearted, and she just has a quick temper, but she is still a good person."

Lu Jiaxin was not one to be bullied. She raised her voice and said, "What good intentions? Hong Gu, you really think I'm a fool. She saw that I was from the mainland and thought I was a bumpkin. She wanted to make fun of me. If I guessed correctly, she must have called other people."

In the minds of ordinary citizens in Hong Kong, the mainland is a synonym for poverty and backwardness. They are very repulsive to people from the mainland, especially the daughters of rich families. However, some well-mannered people will be polite and will not show such disdain; for someone like He Yanyan, whose bad temper is well known, it would be absolutely humiliating for her to go to Central.

When she found out that He Yanyan had made an appointment with three classmates to go shopping together, and those three classmates were all from wealthy families, Gu Xiuxiu immediately knew what was going on.

Gu Xiuxiu patted Lu Jiaxin's hand and said softly, "She told me yesterday that you were not familiar with Hong Kong City and wanted to take you to get familiar with the environment so that you can quickly integrate with your classmates after you enter school. It was my mistake. I thought she really wanted to make friends with you."

Lu Jiaxin didn't dare to be friends with such a woman. She said, "Aunt, Miss He said that I eat, live and use things from the He family. The reason why I came to Hong Kong to study is because I want to apply for the Hong Kong University Business School, which is not possible in the mainland. Aunt, don't worry, I will pay for the tuition and other miscellaneous expenses myself. I won't use your money, let alone a single cent from the He family."

Gu Xiuxiu didn't look annoyed, and said lovingly, "That girl never thinks before she speaks, you don't have to care. Also, this is my aunt's home, it has nothing to do with the He family."

Hearing this, Hong Gu's heart skipped a beat, but Mei Gu remained motionless.

Lu Jiaxin understood that although she was smiling, she had taken the words to heart and was very concerned. She was not interested in what the He family was like, but she would not let them gossip: "Aunt, I have money, and I can afford the tuition and miscellaneous fees myself."

Gu Xiuxiu liked her personality of being able to rely on herself and not on others. She asked Mei Gu to bring over a document and said, "This is the information of the 20 famous schools in Hong Kong. Take it and look at it, and choose one you like."

When Lu Jiaxin heard the word "prestigious school", a popular idol drama in Southeast Asia immediately popped up in her mind. She politely took the information and said, "Aunt, the children of officials, wealthy businessmen, celebrities and elites from all walks of life are basically admitted to prestigious schools. I just came from the mainland, and these people will definitely look down on me. Who knows, if I talk to a male classmate with a good background for a few more words, he might think I'm trying to climb up the social ladder, and then I might be bullied."

She never thought about going to a famous school. First, these schools have too many rules, and second, the pressure will be too great. She came to Hong Kong City to take the college entrance examination just by chance, and her main purpose was to do business and make money.

"Bullying?"

Lu Jiaxin explained: "It's because of our unequal status and position. They laughed at me, commented on me, or insulted me, and even went so far as to teach me a lesson. To put it simply, they bully the weak. Those with poor psychological quality can't stand it and choose to go to extremes."

Many children who are bullied commit suicide, some become criminals, and some are trapped in this shadow for life. Only a few children can get out of it.

Gu Xiuxiu looked at her with a smile on her face: "Are you afraid of being bullied?"

Lu Jiaxin shook her head and said, "I'm not afraid, but I don't have to fit into a circle. This will only make me uncomfortable. There is a saying I like very much, 'When a tree is tall, phoenixes will come; when flowers are fragrant, butterflies will come.'"

What this means is that when a phoenix tree grows taller, it will attract phoenixes; when a flower blooms fragrantly, it will naturally attract butterflies. As long as she makes money in business and has her own listed company, she doesn't need to cater to others, and those people will take the initiative to lead her into the circle. Of course, this circle refers to the business circle and the financial circle.

Gu Xiuxiu couldn't hide the smile on her face, and asked Mei Gu to get a document: "These are the twenty schools I selected, they are all very good. There are detailed introductions on them, you can choose it yourself."

If Lu Jiaxin wanted to get into a prestigious school, she would have to find someone to help her. Getting into a government school wouldn't be so troublesome, so she found someone to arrange it herself.

Lu Jiaxin took the information and thanked sincerely.
