The Upstart's Daughter Awakens [The 1990s]

On the way to the city, fourteen-year-old Cheng Xi had a dream.

In her dream, she was living inside a novel. This time, she was moving to the provincial capital with her mother to reunite with her father, and they were going to live in the family compound of a thermos factory.

It was the early 1990s, and the term "nouveau riche" was still an insult.

It meant tacky, uncouth, ignorant...

Cheng Xi's father quit his job to go into business, sending shock waves through the family compound.

There were plenty of kids her age in the compound, and Cheng Xi, a girl from the countryside, earned herself the nickname "the nouveau riche's daughter."

To win over Su Qingqing, the most popular girl in the compound, and her clique, Cheng Xi became their errand girl.

Whenever Su Qingqing said she wanted one of the pretty hair clips Cheng Xi's mother had bought her, Cheng Xi would take it out of her own hair and give it to her.

She spent all the pocket money her father gave her on snacks for Su Qingqing and Pei Feng, who lived upstairs.

In the end, she even lost her life because of a joke Su Qingqing and Pei Feng made.

After her death, her parents were devastated, while Su Qingqing, the novel's heroine, and Pei Feng, its hero, used their "friendship" with Cheng Xi to take advantage of her parents and live happily ever after.

Watching her family's money and belongings all go to Su Qingqing and Pei Feng, Cheng Xi woke up in a rage.

Cheng Xi, now awake: ...

Stay away from cliques. They only bring misery.

As the moving truck entered the family compound, Cheng Xi saw the heroine's followers standing nearby and whispering. She gritted her teeth. "Dad, give me two hundred yuan in pocket money."
