Jiang He then realized that Lu Nian had never truly considered him a friend from the very beginning.
If there was any, it would only be the period before Lu Nian went to school.
No one played with Lu Nian, so he had no playmates or friends and only treated Jiang He as a temporary playmate.
Because Jiang He's situation was much worse than his.
Compared to Jiang He, although he was an orphan, he was much happier.
Happiness is always relative.
He could find a sense of superiority in Jiang He.
Therefore, after starting school, he had classmates to keep him company, but he would still come to find Jiang He after school.
Teach him to read and recognize characters, and play with him for a while.
This sense of superiority allowed him to maintain his friendship with Jiang He for so many years.
Jiang He was only found and returned to the Jiang family after the human traffickers were caught.
Their identities were suddenly and drastically reversed.
Lu Nian was still a penniless orphan in that remote town, while Jiang He suddenly gained family from the capital.
That's the capital city!
Upon learning this news, Lu Nian's mindset immediately became unbalanced.
He was insanely jealous of Jiang He, feeling that God was unfair, wondering why Jiang He's background was so tragic.
He could comfort himself by thinking that he wasn't the most miserable person in the world, and that there were people who had it even harder and suffered more than him.
Take Jiang He for example. She has mental problems and has relapses from time to time. She is also often abused, doesn't get enough to eat, and can't even go to school.
He could only continue living happily and not be overwhelmed by the despair that life brought him by finding a sense of superiority in Jiang He.
But now, even Jiang He, who was in the worst situation, has turned her life around.
Especially after Jiang He reconnected with him, he learned from the phone call that Jiang He's family members were not only from the capital.
The whole family are actually big-name directors, stars, and singers that you only see on TV!
They live in a luxury villa in the capital, earn a daily salary of 2.08 million yuan, and even a bottle of water costs 400 yuan.
With his limited understanding, he simply couldn't imagine what a luxurious life that must have been.
I'm afraid this is what heaven must be like.
How could Jiang He be so lucky? What makes him so special? What has he done to deserve this?
Why wasn't he so lucky? Why did he have to suffer such a tragic fate?
During that time, he even fantasized wildly about whether he also had some hidden background.
Could it be that my parents aren't dead? Are they some kind of hidden big shot, like in novels?
When the three-year period is up, a mysterious man in black will appear and give him a large fortune, making him a super tycoon whose every stomp can shake the entire city.
Or perhaps, like Jiang He, he was also abducted and trafficked?
His parents were not his biological parents.
His real biological parents were actually just like Jiang He's parents; they were big shots in the capital, even more powerful than the Jiang family.
They've been looking for him, but haven't found him yet?
He went on a crazy rampage for a while, frantically trying to find out what happened from people who knew his parents back then.
I want to understand their lives, to see if there's anything I've overlooked.
He also became obsessed with the heirloom left by his parents, which was actually just a worthless silver bracelet. He cut his finger and wanted to drip his blood to acknowledge its owner.
At his most extreme, he even considered going to his parents' graves to perform a blood test to prove their kinship.
Finally, the cold, cruel reality slapped him awake.
No matter how many people he asked, the conclusion was always the same: his parents were just ordinary people, the kind who were unlucky, short-lived, and poor.
That's why they abandoned him so early, leaving him an orphan.
The only advantage is that he is related to the village chief by blood; they are relatives in a family tree, and according to seniority, he calls the village chief "uncle."
Thanks to this connection, he, an orphan, was able to continue living in the village. Out of respect for the village chief, the villagers gave him food and he was able to grow up on the charity of many families.
Even his appearance is very similar to his father's. Anyone who knows his father can immediately tell that he is his father's son.
No need for a blood test; the fact that this father and son share the same face is enough to prove their blood relationship.
His hopes were dashed, and he was on the verge of a breakdown.
Because of his crazy behavior, the villagers secretly distanced themselves from him, thinking he was an ingrate with no conscience.
What kind of son would wish he weren't his own child?
At that time, Jiang He earnestly advised him to study hard.
Being an orphan, he was already at a disadvantage from the start, and education was the only way for him to change his fate.
He was told he must study hard, get into high school, and then go to university so he could have a chance to turn his life around.
He immediately felt that Jiang He was mocking and insulting him.
Jiang He's heartfelt words of concern for him were all misinterpreted by him.
They felt that Jiang He had turned his life around and become the young master of the Jiang family, so they looked down on him, an orphan.
Why is it that Jiang He was born into a wealthy family and became a young master with more money than he could ever spend in his lifetime, while he can only change his fate by studying?
Doesn't Jiang He know that his academic performance is only so-so?
He didn't have a good family background, so the teacher treated him differently, giving him extra tutoring and guidance in private.
Without the resources, I went to tutoring classes or talent classes to make myself more versatile and achieve excellent grades.
How can he work hard if no one helps him?
Therefore, rather than saying that Jiang He didn't know, it's more accurate to say that Jiang He did it on purpose.
