Capítulo 2: The Clown at the Banquet
Editor: Atlas Studios
Huo Tian, who came from hundreds of years later, did not know what to say. In the era she was familiar with, every baby's genetic code was already been recorded in their household accounts before they were born. The staff at the Artificial Uterus and Infant Care Center would not let an accident like bringing parents the wrong child happen.
However, in such a retrogressive era, to think that the hospital could mix up two family's children. This was really unbelievable!
When Huo Tian got up, she still felt a dull pain in her head. She wanted to wash her face and clear her head, but when she saw her appearance in the mirror, she was given a shock.
Oh god, her reflection in the mirror had long, bright purple hair, black eye makeup around her eyes, and two black tear streaks on her face… Her clothes also had holes here and there. Was this the legendary scene subculture?
Huo Tian did not know how to use the bottles and cans on the counter. She simply washed her face casually with water and then left the room.
Huo Tian had just reached the stairs when she heard a commotion coming from the hall on the first floor. Everyone was laughing and exchanging pleasantries.
Ah, she remembered it now. The Huo Family was holding a banquet.
There was wonderful music and the sweet smell of food coming from downstairs. Huo Tian recalled how the room of the original owner of this body was filled with messy wine bottles and the wide-open window. Since no one cared about the original owner of this body, wouldn't that mean that she wouldn't have to care about their opinions either?
Hence, she calmly walked down the stairs and appeared at the banquet.
Just like an ugly duckling covered in mud suddenly barging into a group of graceful cranes, Huo Tian's appearance caught the attention of everyone at the banquet.
Huo Tian walked straight to the long table with exquisite desserts. The well-dressed guests made way for her and after she passed by them, they'd whisper to the people around them.
"This is the fake Miss that the Huo Family raised as their own daughter. Look at her, she doesn't look like the Huo Family at all!"
"I heard that her biological mother is a mistress. How could such a b*tch possibly give birth to a presentable child?"
"Where did you hear that from? Why do I remember her mother giving birth before marriage? She's been living in poverty and living in the slums with the Huo Family's child."
"Sigh, who knows what's going on? Luckily, Huo You hasn't been led astray and grew up to become so outstanding."
"Yeah, the Huo Family's genes are good…"
These disdainful and harsh words might hurt her original owner of this body, but Huo Tian didn't care. She only wanted to fill her stomach that hadn't had any food for two days!
The desserts at the banquet were all small and exquisite. Huo Tian picked up a few of each and stuffed them into her mouth with her hands.
The sweet and soft taste instantly captured her taste buds! Heavens! Was this the kind of dessert described in the restored documentaries, ones that could make people feel blissed?
Daddy Space-Time Turbulence, thank you for letting me transmigrate!
Huo Tian was enjoying her food, but wasn't aware that many people at the banquet were feeling uncomfortable with her presence!
Of course, other people's feelings didn't feel as strongly as Huo You.
Today, Huo You appeared in front of the guests as the real young miss from the Huo Family. This was the most important moment since her rebirth! How could Huo Tian appear here?!
Huo You, who had her memories from her past life, knew that as long as Huo Tian was given a chance, she would use her glib tongue to make her parents softhearted and allow her to continue staying in the Huo Family as their adopted daughter! Then, she would steal the things that belonged to her time and time again!
In this lifetime, she would never let Huo Tian have the slightest chance of making a comeback!
As someone who didn't fit in with the entire banquet, Huo Tian's position was very conspicuous. Huo You walked directly to the long table.
"Huo Tian, you're really shamelessly refusing to leave the Huo Family."
Huo Tian was still chewing her food when she turned around and saw Huo You in a gorgeous long dress.
After swallowing the food, Huo Tian said, "I'm sorry, I'm starving. The Huo Family wouldn't be unwilling to just let me have a full meal, right?"
Huo You's face darkened. What was Huo Tian trying to say? Was she accusing the Huo Family of not even giving her food in front of so many guests? Could she ignore the Huo Family's reputation just because she had been brought up preciously for more than ten years?
"If you hadn't locked yourself in your room, you wouldn't have starved for almost two days."
Huo You frowned and said, "I know you can't bear to leave mom and dad, but this isn't the right situation for you to act willfully."
Huo Tian clearly remembered that the original owner of this body hadn't locked the door. However, this was something that couldn't be cleared up in a debate. Therefore, she could not be bothered to rebut Huo You and tossed another piece of cake into her mouth.
Huo You was furious at her shamelessness.
