The day my billionaire parents found me, I was gutting a fish in the local market.
After they brought me home, the "Fake Heiress" tried to play mind games with me, dropping passive-aggressive hints left and right.
Unfortunately for her, I barely went to school, so I didn't understand a word of her subtle shade.
My biological brother couldn't stand watching it anymore, so he gave me a copy of The Mean Girl Survival Guide.
I became a self-taught master. Later, I smiled innocently at the Fake Heiress and said:
"Haha, trying to mess with me? Jokes on you, it’s like kicking a cotton ball~"
She was so mad she literally ended up in the hospital.

When my biological parents found me, I was passionately chopping fish.
It was a scorching summer day. I was wearing a waterproof apron, my cleaver thudding rhythmically against the cutting board.
I smelled like a mix of fish guts and old blood.
I looked at them blankly. Their faces were completely unfamiliar.
I asked them dumbly, "You want a carp?"
The man ignored the stench and pulled me into a hug. "Lily, you are our daughter. Mom and Dad are taking you home now, okay?"
Seeing how sincere he was, I nodded and agreed, but I insisted on bringing my mutt, Lucky.
I couldn't read the complex emotions in their eyes. Dad patted my head. "Lily, we can buy you a new dog when we get home, okay? A Poodle, a Maltese, whatever you want."
I shook my head and hugged Lucky tight, climbing into their luxury car.
Mom kept staring at me, telling me not to get the car dirty.
I nodded and hugged Lucky tighter. "Mom, I'm very good, and so is Lucky."
Mom finally turned away and stopped looking at me.
