Chapter 21 Are you qualified to feel distressed?
Su Xing glanced in the direction of Zhou Tingting and her group, and mustered up the courage to say, "Fu Zhi is the daughter of the Lu family, it's normal for her to wear famous brands!"
Tian Nuo sneered: "These shoes are limited edition and need to be reserved in advance. It will take at least three months to get them. She was just adopted yesterday, how could she have the authentic shoes!"
She stood in front of Fu Zhi's desk, pointed a finger at her, and criticized: "Wearing fakes is nothing but a competitive mentality, it's so hypocritical!"
Fu Zhi spoke briefly, raised his head, and glared at Tian Nuo coldly: "Take your hands away."
The almond-shaped eyes were clearly black and white, and the tone was extremely calm.
But...is it an illusion? Tian Nuo always felt that if she moved her hand forward again, Fu Zhi would break it.
As the two of them were in a stalemate, a little girl by the window suddenly shouted, "Lu Yumo is here!"
Many girls in the class stretched their necks to look outside.
Lu Yumo was born with a good-looking appearance, especially his eyes, which were long, narrow and deep.
He has a handsome and distinct outline, and his thin lips show a nonchalant smile. He is the second most popular person in school after Lu Yubai and Song Fang.
After Zhou Tingting came out, he naturally took the girl's wrist and led her behind the door, then rubbed the girl's head with his palm without any hesitation.
"Did you receive the bracelet I bought for you?"
"It arrived yesterday."
"Then why didn't I see you with it? Don't you like it?"
The two people were standing outside the classroom, and whatever they said could be heard clearly inside.
“It’s not a question of like or not.”
Zhou Tingting frowned and said, "Don't give me these expensive gifts in the future. I don't want others to think that I am a materialistic girl."
Although Zhou Tingting's family was poor and her father was a gambler, if it weren't for the financial support from the Lu family, she would have to farm in the countryside after finishing elementary school. However, hardship could not erase her pride.
Lu Yumo smiled and pinched her face: "I like you, of course I want to give you everything good. If you mind, I will pay attention to it in the future."
However, Zhou Tingting didn't quite buy it.
Not only did he like her so much that he persuaded Mrs. Lu to adopt her, but he also asked Fu Zhi to run to a school and wear pirated shoes similar to hers to humiliate her?
She felt uncomfortable and pointed to the class: "Your sister is in the class, why don't you go and see her?"
Lu Yumo, who came to see his girlfriend, was in a good mood. However, when he heard Zhou Tingting's words, he suddenly raised his head, looked in the direction of her hand, and met Fu Zhi's distinct almond-shaped eyes. He felt a little complicated.
He quickly looked away and said calmly, "I'm not familiar with her. There's nothing to see."
Although Lu Yumo lowered his voice, the classmates in the class still heard it clearly.
Since her brother and sister are not familiar with each other, it is obvious that Fu Zhi is not welcome in the Lu family!
Tian Nuo sighed: "Some people, what's wrong with joining the Lu family? It's still just a superficial glory!"
Zhou Tingting glanced at Fu Zhi with a half-smile. She was in a very good mood and then said softly, "No matter how unfamiliar we are, she and I are classmates. You should buy her a pair of brand-name shoes for my sake!"
She said it in a very low voice, and Lu Yumo only heard a vague outline of it. He couldn't help but ask, "Why should I buy her shoes?"
Zhou Tingting hesitated to speak, and finally shook her head: "Forget it, it's nothing." After a pause, she continued: "Actually, your sister is wearing pirated shoes."
"It wasn't a big deal, but her pair happened to be the same style as mine, except for the details. And these shoes require reservations, so it's inevitable that everyone can tell at a glance that they're fake."
"I was thinking, she is your sister after all, and this matter has become such a big deal...why don't you, as her brother, feel sorry for her and buy her a pair of genuine shoes?"
Zhou Tingting spoke tactfully, but there was a hint of subtle contempt between her words.
She is an adopted daughter of the Lu family, but she can't even afford a pair of genuine shoes.
Zhou Tingting's sisters looked at Fu Zhi with even more unbridled contempt.
What's wrong with the adopted daughter? She doesn't dress as well as the sponsored Zhou Tingting, and in the end she has to buy fake shoes to save face.
Lu Yumo listened and felt confused.
"Who said her shoes were fake?"
"Her shoes have a gold outline around the logo, but mine don't."
Zhou Tingting explained that she had worn a lot of Jinmo's custom-made items, all of which were bought for her by Lu Yumo voluntarily. She knew very well what the logo looked like.
"…Her shoes are limited editions that my mom spent a fortune to find designer Jin Mo to make overnight. Yours are the regular ones that I saved money to order. The prices are different, and the logos are definitely different too!"
Zhou Tingting's smile froze.
"My mother is a senior member of Jinmo. She has privileges. She doesn't have to wait for the truckload of clothes she brought to Fu Zhi."
Lu Yumo's tone was a little humble and confused: "Fu Zhi has all the limited editions, even more than I have. What right do I have to feel sorry for her?"
As soon as Lu Yumo said this, Zhou Tingting's sisters were completely stunned. They were still mocking Fu Zhi just now, and they never thought that Fu Zhi was not only wearing genuine shoes, but also a more advanced style than Zhou Tingting's shoes...
