Chapter 2: Blood Test

~7 min read 1,271 words

"Baby even knows about blood tests now; looks like these lessons are still useful," Mr. Jiang Qiyu looked at her with a loving gaze, but his words were colder than the big supermarket's knife that has been killing fish for ten years, "Baby, you're about to be late for class."

"……"

Damn! Can I skip this crappy class! I'm not even biological, why do I have to endure this torment!!!

"Miss, your recent behavior does not comply with Socialite Norms; please watch your conduct. First warning."

The maid gave a warm reminder as Su Yu walked to the classroom.

"Alright, I understand!"

Su Yu still walked to class with proper steps. In her memory, Ms. Shui, Jiang Xiangxiang's mother, would not gently remind her like Jiang Qiyu; she would only use a cold stare, the suffocating chill of the swimming pool, the scorching heat of the sauna, and endless hunger, forcing Jiang Xiangxiang to beg for mercy.

Su Yu's departing silhouette exuded a mournful aura. The butler saw it and felt a bit worried.

"Sir, should we have a psychologist see the miss?"

"No need, the Jiang Family already has a postpartum‑depressed wife, that's enough."

"But the miss, she..."

Jiang Qiyu interrupted the butler, "She's still lively, isn't she? Moreover, she's growing faster and faster; I look forward to her becoming a qualified Marriage Alliance Target."

The butler fell silent. He looked at the child with a tinge of pity. Sigh, when will the lady's illness finally improve?

During history class, Su Yu indeed saw a portrait of Qin Shi Huang…

Fortunately, the First Emperor is a hot topic; many TV dramas and novels love to mention him, so Su Yu had a fairly clear picture of him and barely managed to get through the history class.

After class, she realized she was drenched in sweat and her head felt dizzy. A three‑year‑old's mind just can't keep up!

Whenever she tried to think a bit more, either her head would spin, hurt, or she'd be hungry.

She lifted a sip of cold water, then went to take care of her bodily needs.

After splashing her face in the restroom, Su Yu was about to give up.

"System, can I not follow the script?"

【Host, just imagine you're a college graduate who left early to work. A 500‑square‑meter mansion, a 100‑square‑meter bedroom, a 1.8‑meter bed, all kinds of luxury décor and daily custom‑made nutrition meals—things you couldn't obtain even after a lifetime of struggle in your past life. Now, just attend class obediently and you can have them; it's a great deal, isn't it?】

Think of it as being on the job. The more you gain, the more fatigue is normal; just endure it like the history class, and it'll pass.】

The system gave Su Yu some psychological encouragement.

Su Yu remained silent. Only when the bell rang did she return to the classroom.

The 100‑square‑meter classroom soon welcomed a second language teacher.

"Today's task is to memorize 'Shu Dao Nan' and 'Chu Shi Biao'; study them yourself, and if you haven't mastered them before the end of class, copy them a hundred times and hand them to me tomorrow."

"!!!"

Su Yu: Damn! I'd rather not do this crappy work; who would want to be in this crappy class! I'm going crazy!!!

One class is only half an hour; how could she remember so much!

The system sensed Su Yu's breaking emotion.

【Host, I can help you!】

While Su Yu recited a line from the system and the system recited a line back, she managed to get through this class.

The moment the teacher announced the end of class, she let out a sigh of relief and fainted on the spot.

Upon waking, Su Yu found herself in a hospital, with Chen Yulian—sent by Ms. Shui—to look after her and urge her to maintain Socialite Etiquette in daily life, sitting beside the bed.

"Am I not at home?"

"The family doctor is on leave, so the butler brought you to the hospital for a check‑up."

Hospital… can she run?

Su Yu asked the system in her mind, "I want to run away, help me!"

【Host, have you really considered becoming a Fake heiress?】

The system was also conflicted. After becoming a Fake heiress, she could earn a decent allowance. With money, she could spend on Lucky Card draws and change Su Yu's life. Returning to Su Yu's real home might mean living in an orphanage. The system's algorithm, based on the script, concluded that following the script would be more beneficial to Su Yu.

But Su Yu looked so miserable, and it had fought another system before arriving here, coming too early. The timing was off; maybe its program also has issues?

Su Yu's drooping eyes brightened; does this mean it's not forced to follow the script?

"Yes, I want to return to my own home. Later in the story, aren't they unconditionally pampering the True heiress? Switch back sooner; I don't need this torment, and she can enjoy the Rich Lady's Daughter life, which is good for both of us!"

【Alright then. Host, this is a public hospital. Seize the chance: after using the Lucky Card, report to the police, thinking of your desire to return to your real home.】

Su Yu immediately looked up at the maid and said, "Please go handle my discharge paperwork first; I'll wait for you here."

"But..."

Chen Yulian hesitated. Recently many children have colds, and the private hospital is full; the butler feared the child's health might truly be at risk, so they could only rush her to the nearest public hospital for examination.

In Chen Yulian's view, public hospitals aren't as safe as private ones; she worried a child alone in a room wouldn't be secure. Moreover, they could wait for the butler to arrive and have others handle the discharge.

"You can ask a nurse sister to come in and look after me. I want you to go right now."

After speaking, Su Yu whispered in her heart: use Lucky Card.

The Lucky Card was a gift from the system when she first arrived in this world; she hoped it would truly work.

Seeing Su Yu's earnest expression, Chen Yulian nodded, called the butler to send a car, asked a nurse to watch Su Yu, and rushed to handle the paperwork.

In her heart, Su Yu said sorry to Chen Yulian, and wailed at the nurse sister.

"Sister, please save me! I'm not their child! I beg you, call the police and rescue me! I can do a Paternity Test; I truly am not their child!"

Su Yu cried miserably, "Please! If I go back I won't be able to get out! Save me!"

The nurse was startled by Su Yu's cries. She saw the child dressed in lavish clothes with a servant beside her, looking like a biological child. Yet she cried so terribly and even claimed a Paternity Test, so perhaps she truly wasn't biological.

A thought flashed that a mischievous child lying would be dealt with by parents; the nurse took out her phone and let Su Yu call the police.

The police arrived quickly.

A public hospital, not biological—so many things could be involved; it could be a major case!

The butler arrived to fetch them, bringing back the miss and two police officers.

"Hello, what's wrong with our little one?"

"It's just a doctor's visit—how did the police show up? Their young lady is usually smart and well-behaved; how could she get into something that warrants calling the police?"

"Are you her father?"
