After Transmigrating as the "Green Tea" Fake Heiress, I Got My Happy Ending with the Real Heiress - Chapter 6

Chapter 6

According to the original novel, the day’s plot had concluded. Wen Yun figured she should give the protagonist time to adjust to the new environment, so after delivering the clothes and doll, she returned to her room.

Even though she knew the original owner’s room was decorated in a “girly pink” theme, the overwhelming color still made Wen Yun uncomfortable every time she saw it.

The chandelier cover and bed canopy were pink, and so were the carpet, wardrobe doors, and curtains. Even the quilt and pillowcases were pink.

In contrast, the row of Lenai Bears on the bedside table actually looked quite colorful.

Wen Yun sighed and sat down at the desk to organize the original owner’s study materials.

It was August 20th, and the start of the senior year of high school was only a few days away. When Mother Wen asked if Ruan Yu could keep up with her academic subjects, Wen Yun actually felt guilty.

After all, she had graduated many years ago, and her university major was an easy-A liberal arts course. It had been far too long since she had gone through such a high-pressure study period.

Fortunately, the original owner’s elective subjects were Politics, History, and Biology. Most of the questions tested comprehension and memorization, which were her specialty. The relevant question types and fragmented knowledge points were also preserved in the original owner’s memory. Otherwise, she was genuinely worried she might give the Wen family a shock.

Referencing the original owner’s memory, Wen Yun roughly sorted the study materials and placed them neatly on the desk. Just as she was contemplating whether to do some practice questions before bed to get back into the swing of things, the phone on the desk lit up.

She picked up the phone and unlocked it, only to find that she had 99+ unread messages on WeChat. Glancing at the top, a group chat named “The Sneaky Observation Squad” was the source of the 99+ notifications, followed closely by a conversation with the contact named “Cute Sweetheart Qiqi,” which also showed unread messages.

As soon as she read the contact note, Wen Yun instantly remembered a character from the original novel.

The original owner’s malicious best friend, the Lin family’s daughter, Lin Qiqi!

If the original owner was a sweet white lotus with a hint of green tea, Lin Qiqi was a highly poisonous red flower. She would unleash her malice immediately upon seeing anyone she disliked, relying on her status as a rich young lady to be arrogant and overbearing.

The Wen and Lin families had been close for years. Lin Qiqi and the original owner had grown up together, and Lin Qiqi mindlessly sided with the original owner in every situation. A large part of Wen Yun’s anger while reading the novel stemmed from her.

After roughly recalling this person’s actions, Wen Yun’s head started to throb.

Many of the things the protagonist experienced were thanks to Lin Qiqi.

Being publicly ridiculed and sneered at as a “country bumpkin,” being ganged up on and ostracized, being anonymously slandered in WeChat groups and on the school forum about having an affair with an older man…

Wen Yun: I’m so tired.jpg

After steeling herself, she clicked on Lin Qiqi’s avatar to see what the little villain was planning.

“Yunyun, don’t worry. Since Uncle didn’t rush to change her name and residency, he definitely doesn’t plan on acknowledging that country bumpkin!”

“I heard there’s a transfer student entrance exam tomorrow, and the results are graded immediately. As long as the family asks, you can know the scores about half an hour after the test!”

“I plan to go to school tomorrow to check her scores, take a picture, and send it to the group. Let everyone see what trash level that country bumpkin, who is trying to climb into a wealthy family, really is!”

Wen Yun: …

This commentary didn’t sound like a wealthy young lady; it sounded like a case of Eighth-Grade Syndrome (Chuunibyou)!

She scrolled up through the past messages, noting the time of the posts. She found that the original owner had told Lin Qiqi about the true and false heiress situation and even played the victim before picking up Ruan Yu. Given the little villain’s sharp mind, she had probably figured out the original owner’s true intentions.

After a quick scan, Wen Yun thought for a moment and rapidly tapped on the screen.

The little villain was currently just venting online, so there might still be a way to salvage the situation. She absolutely couldn’t let her bully the protagonist anymore!

Meanwhile, at the affluent Lin family home.

Lin Qiqi had just finished applying her face mask and was about to watch a drama to help her sleep. However, when she picked up her phone, she saw Wen Yun had replied to her message.

“Qiqi QwQ It’s all my fault for saying so many extreme things to you and making you misunderstand Xiao Yu!”

Lin Qiqi was startled, and her heart pounded with nervousness.

Why would Yunyun say something like that? Could it be… was she threatened by that country bumpkin?!

Oh, how dare that country bumpkin embarrass Yunyun on the very first day she came home! The audacity!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Shaking with rage, she was about to type a response when she saw Wen Yun send another message:

“Xiao Yu is genuinely so well-behaved and sensible, she’s a considerate little fairy! I want to spoil her just like Mom and Dad spoil me. Please don’t be mean to her because of those things I said before QwQ”

Lin Qiqi: ???

She fell silent, imagining various scenarios but couldn’t connect “country bumpkin” and “considerate little fairy.”

After much hesitation, she tentatively replied:

“[Hug] Yunyun, you are too kind. Look at you, you’ve been bullied so much, why are you still speaking up for that country bumpkin?”

“Just tell me the truth! I only recognize you as the Wen family’s daughter, and no matter what you say, I will always side with you!”

Wen Yun, upon receiving the reply, was completely bewildered.

What was going on?!

Could there be a problem with her phrasing? She had been so obvious!

“Host, green tea remarks are highly likely to be reverse-interpreted by people familiar with the original owner,” the System explained to her in a timely manner. “Especially since Lin Qiqi already harbors ill will towards the protagonist.”

“…So, the more I praise the protagonist to Lin Qiqi, the more Lin Qiqi will believe that the protagonist has severely bullied me?” Wen Yun was utterly confused. “Why doesn’t this little villain consider this: a country student who has just arrived in a strange place, knows nothing about the wealthy circle, and isn’t loved by her biological parents—what gives her the courage and confidence to bully a young lady who grew up in the lap of luxury and is pampered and adored?”

“This System doesn’t know either, Host,” the System said helplessly.

Due to the earlier self-sabotage, Wen Yun didn’t dare reply quickly.

She held her phone, thought long and hard, and then started typing.

“Do you really want to hear the truth?”

Lin Qiqi instantly replied: “Of course!”

“The truth is, I haven’t been bullied. Xiao Yu is just an ordinary student, and there’s nothing wrong with her past. I personally went to pick her up yesterday, and no one knows her situation better than I do!”

Wen Yun typed furiously. As soon as she sent one message, she started editing the next: “I’ll emphasize this again: when I spoke ill of Xiao Yu before, I was indeed being extreme, and I gave you a bad impression. That was my problem. I had prejudices against people from the countryside back then, but after spending time with Xiao Yu, I’ve completely realized my mistake.”

She thought for a moment and added: “Xiao Yu is now an important family member to me. If you still think I’m speaking up for her because I was bullied, I’m going to get truly angry [Cat-paw-punching-you emoji]”

After these messages were sent, Lin Qiqi didn’t reply for a long time.

Wen Yun rubbed her phone, wondering if her tone had been too harsh and had scared the original owner’s little friend. Her thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door: “Miss, the bathwater and petals are ready.”

She quickly answered, put her phone on charge, picked out a nightgown from the closet, draped it over her arm, and was about to leave when she suddenly remembered that she was a wealthy young lady now. The butler should be the one to prepare her clothes.

All she had to do was tell the butler what color pajamas she wanted to wear tonight, and the butler would handle everything.

Although the System didn’t restrict her from maintaining the original owner’s persona, being too obvious about breaking character might still arouse suspicion.

Better safe than sorry.

So, she hung the nightgown back up, took only her phone, opened the door, and headed straight for the bathroom.

Soaking in the flower petal bath meticulously prepared by the butler, Wen Yun sniffed the faint floral scent, looked up at the exquisite crystal ceiling lamp, and couldn’t help but recall Father Wen’s words in the original novel, urging the protagonist to stay in the guest room.

— “There are no extra master bedrooms in the house, Xiao Yu. You’ll stay here for now. It’s also very spacious and bright, has all the necessary furnishings, and is close to the dining room, kitchen, and bathroom.”

She rubbed her temples, then thought of the room and tutors she had secured for the protagonist today, and her mood improved involuntarily.

Her original intention was simple: even if the protagonist truly wanted to leave the Wen family later, she should receive every bit of respect she deserved during this year.

If the protagonist couldn’t have her own exclusive bathroom, then she could use hers. At the very least, she needed to make the Wen family and the hired staff understand that she, the Wen family’s daughter, cared deeply about Ruan Yu.

Although Wen Yun was the actual impostor, the original plot dictated that everyone valued the fake heiress and looked down upon the true heiress.

Thinking this, Wen Yun dried her hands, picked up the phone lying nearby, and clicked on the pinned group chat, “The Sneaky Observation Squad.”

In the original novel, this was a small class group chat established by busybodies in the second year of high school. There were no teachers, anonymity was allowed, and some gossip about wealthy families even circulated there.

Could she use this group chat to spread the rumor that “Wen Yun cares about Ruan Yu”?

Wen Yun still hadn’t received a reply from Lin Qiqi. Bored, she casually searched the chat history for the keyword “transfer,” and many messages popped up:

“[Anonymous] Breaking news! There will be a country transfer student next semester, female, 99% chance she’s transferring to our class!”

“? Why would an idiot transfer in the senior year of high school? Can she keep up with our revision schedule?”

“What the heck is a country transfer student?? Is it a rural household that got rich overnight and is just throwing money at our school?”

Wen Yun noticed that the initial messages were quite normal, until a new anonymous message appeared:

“[Anonymous] I hope this low-class country transfer student doesn’t have the audacity to lower the standard of our class!”

As soon as this message appeared, someone else immediately opened an anonymous account to agree:

“[Anonymous] Exactly! She should be grateful and burning incense just to be allowed into our class!”

“[Anonymous] I heard that in the countryside, they raise girls like boys, they’re very rough, and they make girls do farm work. Their skin is tanned dark and cracked. Oh my god, it’s particularly scary! If this transfer student is that rough, will she be a violent woman with a bad temper?”

Wen Yun: …

Are you guys okay???

It was half-past eleven, and the light in the guest room was still on.

After finishing the last reading comprehension question on the English practice test, Ruan Yu put away the paper and placed it in her backpack. She yawned wearily, then picked up the latest model phone that the butler had left on the desk a while ago. After unlocking it, she opened the search engine and typed a line of text:

“Reasons why a familiar person suddenly changes their personality.”

Ruan Yu couldn’t claim to know Wen Yun intimately, but they had spent a year together. Moreover, she had understood Wen Yun’s true nature before she died. She had some idea of what Wen Yun would say or do when certain things happened.

However, at this very moment, she belatedly realized that the Wen Yun of this lifetime felt completely foreign to her.

After the search results appeared, Ruan Yu scrolled down. Most answers leaned towards “suffering from a mental or physical illness” or “experiencing a major trauma.”

But she remembered her mother saying that Wen Yun’s life had been smooth sailing before her arrival and that she underwent annual physical checkups and psychological consultations. She shouldn’t have drastically changed her personality due to illness or trauma.

…Then why exactly was Wen Yun being so relentlessly enthusiastic towards her?

Ruan Yu couldn’t figure it out and browsed the other answers blankly.

After flipping through an unknown number of pages, a post from an occult enthusiast forum caught her attention:

“Have you heard of ‘ghost possession’ or ‘soul snatching’? Those people whose personalities have drastically changed might not be the original person anymore! Pictures prove the truth [Image][Image]”
